Here's something you are going to want to order.  A free calendar featuring Zac Brown Band and Toby Keith, among other celebrities.  It's the 2011 USO "Moments That Matter" photo calendar. In the month of March, Toby is pictured at an impromptu concert for the troops in South Korea. Zac Brown Band are featured for the month of August, where they were photographed on stage performing a show for the troops stationed at Kirkuk Air Base in Iraq.  The calendar is free, but donations to the USO in any amount are always appreciated. To get your copy, write to the USO at P.O. Box 96322, Washington, D.C. 20090-6322 or call (888) 484-3876. For more on the USO, visit www.uso.org.

 


Let the awards season begin.  We have some nominees to announce for the 2011 ACM's.  Easton Corbin, Eric Church and Randy Houser are nominees for Top New Solo Vocalist.  And, in the newly created Top New Vocal Duo or Group category, the nominees are the Band Perry, the JaneDear Girls and Steel Magnolia.  This year, instead of having two separate categories for Top New Duo and Top New Vocal Group, the ACM has now combined both categories into one. Fans can vote in both categories by logging onto either VoteACM.com or GACTV.com/ACM between January 27 and February 24. The ACM Awards will be announced Friday, January 8. The ACM Awards will air live from Las Vegas on Sunday, April 3 at 8:00 PM ET on CBS.


Craig Morgan's TV show on The Outdoor Channel is a big hit.  The debut season of his show “CRAIG MORGAN: All Access Outdoors” turned out to be the #1 show on Saturday Mornings for the network.  That is why he has been signed to season two, which will begin in June. It airs at 10a (CT) every Saturday morning.  “All Access Outdoors” chronicles Craig's life, both on stage and in the great outdoors where he enjoys motocross racing and bow hunting big game.


DVR Alert: 
Tonight (1/4) Tim McGraw is on Late Night with David Letterman, talking about the movie Country Strong.

Wednesday night, catch Taylor Swift making an appearance at the 2011 People's Choice Awards in Los Angeles on CBS at 8:00 PM CT. Her old boyfriend Taylor Lautner is also scheduled to appear.  Although she hasn't come right out and admitted it, Taylor has hinted that her latest single "Back To December" is about her feelings after the breakup with the male Taylor a year ago.  What we don't know is if Taylor's (the girl Taylor, I mean) current boyfriend, Jake Gyllenhaal, will join her on the red carpet at the People's Choice Awards.


Insiders are reporting that Jake Gyllenhaal bought Taylor Swift a pretty expensive gift over the holidays.  A $100,000 diamond bracelet - nearly 30 carats of colorless diamonds set in white gold.   It was also reported that he bought her an $11,000 vintage guitar for her birthday. 

These are both things Taylor could afford to buy herself. But it's always nice when someone else does the shopping.

Taylor make a pretty elite list of celebrities this week. The 21-year old superstar has made the cut on Forbes list of Hollywood's 20 Highest-Earners of 2010. With an estimated payday last year of $45 million, Taylor came in at No. 19, only slightly edging out TV court-show host Judge Judy Sheindlin. Not surprisingly, Oprah Winfrey topped the list, with an estimated earning of $315 million.

Oh, and Taylor visited with Rachael Ray on her show Monday, Jan. 3rd.  A couple of teenage girls got "Taylor Makeovers" and got the chance to meet the country star.  Watch the video below
