Luke Bryan recently missed an episode of American Idol after testing positive for COVID-19.  One TikTok user wants you to believe that it was because a physical fight that broke out between him and Idol contestant, Wyatt Pike. Luke’s wife, Caroline, set the record straight, making it clear that Luke did in fact, have COVID. She said she kind of wishes there had been a fight. She was tired of taking care of the kids alone and sanitizing everything. Wyatt Pike had to drop out of the competition for personal reasons. That happened at the same time Luke was out and sparked the rumor.

A couple of artists are working on new albums. Maren Morris says she is about halfway finished with album number 3. Kelsea Ballerini recently shared photos from a writing retreat that took place in Columbia, TN with a couple of her friends. The three of them wrote six new songs that could be included on Kelsea’s fourth album.
