Darius Rucker hosted his 13th Annual Darius & Friends benefit concert in Nashville on Monday night followed by a golf and silent auction on Tuesday. This year’s event raised an all time high of $516,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The donations helped Darius surpass the $3 million mark in his fundraising efforts over the last 13 years.


Miranda Lambert is one of Time‘s 100 Most Influential People of 2022.  She was honored at last night’s Time100 Gala and she kicked off the event with a performance. Oher honorees included Sarah Jessica Parker, Oprah Winfrey and Keanu Reeves among others. The event was filmed and will air on ABC, Sunday night.


Chris Lane‘s wife, Lauren Bushnell Lane, revealed that she has a pregnancy condition called marginal cord insertion which can sometimes keep the  baby from getting all of the nutrients it needs. It will require monitoring but Lauren says the baby is very healthy and she is staying positive. Chris and Lauren will welcome their second child in October.
