“Thank you Blake, I appreciate it,” Legend jokingly expressed. “I never thought that you would say that about me, that’s very kind. Carter, I turned for you early on.

Your tone is just piercing and brilliant, and it just shimmers out there.” Legend went on to note that Rubin is the youngest contestant he has turned for. “My son, he’s 14 years old, so I could be like a mom figure for you, because I am a mom so you could feel very comfortable around me,” Stefani countered. “I loved your voice.

Kelsea Ballerini Asks Haters to ‘Politely Shut Up’ After CMT Music Awards Performance With Halsey
Kelsea Ballerini and Halsey rocked the CMT Music Awards this week with a Coyote Ugly-inspired performance of their song “The Other Girl.” And while the vocal powerhouses were received mostly with praise for their nostalgic, leather-clad duet, critics called out the song for not being “real” country music. Ballerini had no time for the haters, taking to Instagram on Thursday (Oct. 22) to share a selfie with a fittingly blasé thumbs up. “After reading way too many comments, I’d like to remind people that there are different kinds of country music and none are more ‘real’ than others when it comes from an honest place,” she wrote, “that women can wear whatever we want and shouldn’t be called names and criticized for it, an...

Sech Talks Black Lives Matter Movement at 2020 Billboard Latin Music Awards: ‘Hopefully, People Listen’
Sech had a big night at the 2020 Billboard Latin Music Awards on Wednesday night, where he took home his first-ever Latin Billboard trophy for best new artist of the year and performed his 2020 hit “Relación” with a gospel choir. But before taking the stage, the Panamanian artist opened up about the Black Lives Matter movement on the red carpet. “I don’t know if it made a difference or how people received it, but it came from my heart to truly support everything that was going on and talk about the topic,” he told Billboard, referring to a heartfelt post he shared on social media in June amid the worldwide protests in response to the death of George Floyd and other Black citizens who have died at the hands of police. “Hopefully those people who are not aware listen and take conscienc...
