Before every show of her Las Vegas residency, Miranda Lambert takes communion with her crew.  But instead of wafers, they use . . . TEQUILA SHOTS. She says, quote, “We call it communion, I know we’re not supposed to.  Because we actually take them off a communion tray . . . Hey, I grew up in church and we are in Sin City!”

LeAnn Rimes had surgery this past Friday to remove precancerous cells that were detected on her cervix during a routine exam. Apparently, things rarely go smoothly for her this time of year.  In an Instagram post she said, quote, “January is usually a challenging month for me. “Over the past couple of years, I’ve either been going through dental surgeries or recovering from a vocal hemorrhage around this time, which was all pretty depressing.” Luckily it was only a minor procedure, and it sounds like they caught it early.  LeAnn said, “Early stages of cervical cancer don’t usually involve symptoms, so annual screenings and early detection can be lifesaving.”

Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler says he’s been quietly working on his own country album for over a year.  He says he already has about 60 songs, but he’s aiming to record around 200 to have more to choose from.

Rascal Flatts guitarist Joe Don Rooney suffered a panic attack on his plane after it landed safely in Nashville, but was stuck on the tarmac for THREE HOURS.  He says it triggered his anxiety disorder and claustrophobia. Once Joe was able to get off the plane, he had to wait two more hours to get his luggage, then drive through the winter storm to get home.  He says he wishes airlines had better systems in place to assist people like him.

All My Children actor Alex Musser, 50, died from a shotgun wound to his chest due to suicide, the San Diego County Medical Examiner has concluded. The actor’s fiancée, Paige Press, who discovered Musser’s body, first shared the news of his death after he died Friday night at their home in Del Mar, California. according to a statement from the local medical examiner, Press discovered Musser “seated and slumped forward on the bathroom floor. She noted a firearm near him and an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound to the chest and called 911. Paramedics and law enforcement responded and confirmed the death.”

Suzanne Somers’ widower, Alan Hamel, says strange things have been happening in Suzanne Summers Palm Springs, Calif., home since the “Three’s Company” icon passed —it seems Somers is still there in spirit. “Three things happened. The same day, that were very strange,” her devoted husband of nearly 50 years said. First off, “a hummingbird flew into our house and made the rounds in the kitchen, and the living room and the dining room.” The bird then “hovered” in front of a framed picture of Hamel and Somers in their breakfast nook, and even “landed on top and stayed there.” Hamel even snapped a pic of the bird. After that, “the fireplace started all by itself,” and “some music came on by Suzanne’s favorite composter.”

Josh Duhamel and Audra Mari have welcomed their little bundle of joy, Shepherd Lawrence Duhamel. The 50 year old and his wife confirmed the news. The baby was born on Jan. 11. Josh also has a 10-year-old son with his ex-wife Fergie.
