Drew Barrymore was rushed off the stage during an event at a theater in New York on Monday, thanks to some weird guy in the audience.  She was having a conversation with actress and singer Renee Rapp, when the guy came down the aisle shouting Drew’s name. Drew was obviously shocked, and shouted, “Oh my god, yes, hi!”  And the man said, “You know who I am.  I need to see you at some point while I’m in New York.” But his plans got interrupted by two security guards, who escorted him out of the theater.  At the same time, Renee actually got up and escorted Drew off the stage.  They came back out a few minutes later.

Britney Spears and Sam Asghari already figured out how they’ll split up their dogs in the divorce. Together they had FIVE dogs.  Sam is only keeping their Doberman Porsha. Britney is keeping the other four: an Australian Shepherd named Sawyer, a Yorkie named Hannah, and two other small dogs.

Baker Mayfield will replace Tom Brady as the starting quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.  He says, “I know how talented I am.  I know what type of leader I am . . . everybody’s excited here.”

Dolly Parton does get angry once in a while.  Her brilliance is that she’s so sweet, the anger stands out and people snap to attention. “I’m a businessperson [and] sometimes you’ve just kind of gotta pitch a fit to get it done or get it done right.  Or if somebody’s messing with my family or messing with my work. I don’t LOSE my temper, but I USE my temper.”

Zach Bryan played a show in Vegas on Saturday, and spotted a young girl – maybe 12 years old – in the crowd with a sign that said, “‘Heading South’ for my very first concert.”  He has a song – “Heading South”.  At the end of the show, he made sure it was memorable for her . . . by giving her the GUITAR he played that night. The girl’s mom shared a video of it.  He walked up . . . made sure no one else tried to grab it . . . and handed it to her in its case. She immediately started sobbing and hyperventilating.  But don’t worry, there’s another clip of her later on, laughing and posing with the guitar. Her mom wrote on TikTok, “Thank you for the core memories, [Zach].  And for making this girl’s world!! . . . She’ll NEVER forget her first concert.”

Luke Combs says he’s “honored to be the inspiration” behind the design of Bubba Wallace’s NASCAR car.  He shared a look at it on Instagram, and said, “Go get ’em, Bubba!”  The new paint scheme will debut at the NASCAR Cup Series’ regular season finale at Daytona this weekend.

Riley Green recently toured with Luke Combs.  He says being on the big stage with people singing his songs back to him is like, quote, “hitting a home run, or dunking a basketball . . . It’s got that kind of adrenaline that you just can’t get anywhere else.”

Lee Brice, Dennis Quaid, and Sara Evans are a few of the big names added to the lineup of performers and presenters at tonight’s “ACM Honors”.  The show is being taped and will air September 18th on Fox. 

Jon Pardi hit up social media to say that he’s canceling the U.K. and European leg of his Mr. Saturday Night World Tour.  But all is not lost.  Cam shared a video saying she’s going to take his place on Sunday at The Long Road Festival in England.
