“Reboot 2” just dropped on Friday and it features the biggest country superstars singing Brooks & Dunn covers. Brooks & Dunn released a behind-the-scenes video of the making of the album.

1.  Jelly Roll said that even his mom is going to be impressed that he worked with Brooks & Dunn.  But she’d warn him, “Don’t you butcher that classic.”

2.  Lainey Wilson recorded her song in a very flamboyant pantsuit with bright flames all over it.  She said, “I got this out of Kix’s closet.”

3.  Morgan Wallen said it was really cool recording with them because, “Every vehicle I got in as a kid was blaring their music.  It’s a big-time honor to do this with them now.”

Also, shout-out to Megan Moroney who you usually see all dolled up . . . But instead, she was in Chuck Taylors and a T-shirt, engrossed in the music-making process

Luke Combs was named “People” magazine’s sexiest 34-year-old man on the planet. John Krasinski was just named the Sexiest Man Alive, but “People” also broke down sexiness by age. Warren Zeiders was named the sexiest 25-year-old on the planet.  And NBA star Dwyane Wade was the sexiest 42-year-old. Noah Kahan was named the sexiest 27-year-old, too.  He posted the picture and wrote, “There’s been a mistake, People.”

Since Luke Combs was named the sexiest 34-year-old on the planet, it’s only natural to think of who else is HOT in the world of country music. Here are the results of a poll:

1.  George Strait

2.  Keith Urban

3.  Tim McGraw. 

4.  Laine Hardy

5.  Alan Jackson

6.  Blake Shelton. 

7.  Toby Keith

8.  Chris Young

9.  Riley Green

10.  It was a tie between Morgan Wallen and Luke Bryan.

11.  Cody Johnson

Bro-country dominated a large part of the 2010s.  So how did it come to an end?  Hardy says, “I do feel like I am a part of a class of artists, me, Jelly, Morgan, Ernest, Lainey Wilson, that have been a part of a shift in country music that brought a wave of normalcy. Like normal people singing a little bit more about normal [stuff] and that sort of resonating with a huge, mass crowd of people.” He added that the bro-country phase had a “larger-than-life persona.” And he thinks that all came to an end, because people just sing about normal stuff now.  And a lot of people, especially in smaller towns, relate to that.

Gwen Stefani says she didn’t even know Blake Shelton existed before she met him on “The Voice”.

Nathan Kress is 32.  Freddie on “iCarly”.

T.J. Osborne of the Brothers Osborne is 40.  “Stay a Little Longer”.

Damon Wayans Jr.is 42.  Coach on “New Girl”.

David Ortiz is 49.  Boston Red Sox World Series hero

Megyn Kelly is 54

Owen Wilson is 56.  Mobius in “Loki” and Lightning McQueen in the “Cars” movies.  Ka-chow!

Gary Sheffield is 56.  Retired baseball outfielder

Kevin Nealon is 71.  Former “SNL” cast member,

Dennis Haskins is 74.  Mr. Belding on “Saved By the Bell”.

Linda Evans is 82.  Krystle Carrington on “Dynasty”.

Mickey Mouse is 96.

Henry Winkler refused to let his daughter do reality TV.  Once, when a producer came to their house, he told him, quote, “I can suggest some really good restaurants, [but] my daughter is not doing your show.” One of the funniest things to come from the show was George Strait’s reaction to the performances. Someone…
