Frances Bean Cobain . . . daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love . . . married Riley Hawk . . . son of Tony Hawk . . . earlier this month.

In his new book, John Stamos admitted to having two nose jobs when he was on “General Hospital” in the early ’80s.  The second one happened within a year, and was necessary to “correct” the first one. 

77-year-old Cher says her 37-year-old boyfriend Alexander “A.E.” Edwards doesn’t get most of her references.  Quote, “He’ll look at me and go, ‘I wasn’t born yet.'”

Stephen Curry from the Golden State Warriors is one of the most successful athletes in the world.  So you’d think he’s already got his kids on the fast track to sports dominance. And you would be WRONG.  Steph has two daughters, ages 11 and 8, and a 5-year-old son.  And he’s not pushing them AT ALL. “We’re all backyard sports right now.  Nothing too organized . . . It’s more just confidence building and their ability to find joy in everything they do. I think that’s a huge part of kids these days, not feeling too much pressure on having to be successful or keep up with their counterparts . . . I’m trying to make sure they enjoy being a kid and finding joy in everything they do.”

You’ve gotta be a big star for a long time to have a moment this cool:  Shania Twain brought a fan on stage in Toronto on Sunday.  And they knew each other, because she also brought her on stage 22 years ago as a KID. Her name is Daniela.  Shania brought her up to sing a song at a show way back in 2001.  So it was like a little reunion.  But that’s not even the best part. At Sunday’s show, Daniela said being on stage back then changed her life, and inspired her to study music.  So now she’s an OPERA SINGER. Shania had her show off her pipes, and she’s definitely got some.  She did an opera-style version of “From This Moment On”. You can check out the footage from both concerts online.  Shania posted a then-and-now video on her TikTok page.

Kelsea Ballerini has been winning awards and selling records for almost 10 years, but it wasn’t until recently that she started feeling confident in her artistic abilities.  It came up an interview with “Nylon” magazine. “I’ve always had this complex that people don’t think of me as a credible artist, that people are like, ‘She got signed to a label and she had a number one right off the bat, she’s blond, she’s glittery, she posts stuff, she’s this personality.’ “That’s the thing that I care about the actual least.  I have fun with all of that, but I’ve never cut a song I didn’t write.  I never will.” Things changed when she poured it all out in her “Rolling Up the Welcome Mat” album.  Quote, “[That] album has made people think of me in more of a rooted, grounded, ‘I’m a real artist’ kind of way.  “Maybe that’s something I shouldn’t have cared about.  But I do.  Maybe that’s just a notch in my belt that I had to get to feel validated.  But I do feel that now.”

A lot of country music fans would love to hit up Miranda Lambert’s Pink Pistol boutique . . . but not everyone can make it to Linwood, Texas.  So she’s showing off a glimpse of it on her Instagram account.  Speaking of Miranda’s Instagram, she also shared some footage of her goats:  Taco, Tuesday, and Tanya.  In the clip, she says she’s a “goat mom” . . . and she chose “San Antonio Stroll” by Tanya Tucker as the background music.

Long before Luke Bryan became a judge on “American Idol” . . . he was a kid judging his neighbors’ Halloween candy.  Quote, “You can find out a lot about your neighbors by what kind of candy they put out. “Full Snickers bars, that’s [good] and so is Reese’s cups.  [But] the old chocolate popcorn ball of stuff, that’s no good.  And Dots . . . you get Dots one time a year and they pull your teeth.”

Watch Dierks Bentley jokingly facepalm at his teenage daughter while teacher her how to drive.  In his defense, she reminded herself a few times which pedal is the gas, and which is the break. 

Darius Rucker recently shared a ghostly experience.  Here are four other artists that claim to have seen a ghost. 

 Thomas Rhett, Dierks Bentley, and Billy Strings will headline the first-ever Big As Texas Music & Food Festival in May for three days of “bands, brisket, and beers”.  It’ll be in the greater Houston area, and 10% of the ticket proceeds will go to local non-profits that promote suicide prevention.  (Whiskey Riff)
