When a bunch of all-stars get together to record a song for a cause, the result can often be cringey. But “Tennessee Rise,” featuring the pulpit-ready voices of Brittany Howard, Allison Russell, Katie Pruitt, Amanda Shires, Fancy Hagood, Emmylou Harris, and more, hits all the marks.
The heavenly choir anthem was recorded to encourage Tennesseans to register and vote for Gloria Johnson, who is challenging Republican incumbent U.S. senator — and the state’s Darth Vader — Marsha Blackburn in the November election. Johnson is one of the lawmakers known as “The Tennessee Three,...

Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed famously tied the knot less than four months after getting engaged in April 2015. The couple, who are currently expecting their first child together, have been making us swoon for quite some time now with their adorable outings and sweet social media posts about each other, but the story of how they began dating is just a tad complicated. While the details aren't totally clear, their relationship can be traced back to when Ian used to date Nina Dobrev and Nikki was married to American Idol alum Paul McDonald. Ian and Nina eventually called it quits in May 2013, and Ian began dating Nikki the following year, a few months after she separated from Paul. RelatedThe Shortest Celebrity Engagements The stars were all friends for years before their respective breakups, and since then, there have been rumors of a feud between Nina and Nikki.

A photo posted by Nikki Reed (@iamnikkireed) on Feb 7, 2017 at 10:51am Pst Before Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed tied the knot in April 2015, there was a time when he famously dated his The Vampire Diaries costar Nina Dobrev. While it may seem harmless enough, Ian and Nina were reportedly both friends with Nikki and her then-husband, Paul McDonald. Since then, there have been rumors of a feud between Nina and Nikki, and though the ladies have never publicly addressed it (that is, until now), fans even believed that Nina left The Vampire Diaries because of her breakup with Ian. Fast forward to present day, and the two women are finally putting those rumors to rest. On Tuesday, Nina sent Instagram into a social frenzy when she uploaded a snap of her hanging out with none other than Nikki and Ian. Along with the silly shot, Nina casually wrote, "Can't believe how time flies.

As Tracking Board first reported and The Wrap confirmed, Jennifer Hudson is in talks to star in an Aretha Franklin biopic from Straight Outta Compton producer Scott Bernstein. The biopic, which has Franklin's approval, would focus in equal parts on her singing career and her marriage to abusive manager Ted White. In 2012, Franklin told Glamour her main concern with the film was accuracy: "Let's present the facts and be as creative as possible with them." (She also said she wanted Denzel Washington or Billy Dee Williams to play her father.) Hudson has long been rumored as the possible star of a Franklin biopic; she auditioned for American Idol with a version of Franklin's "Share Your Love With Me," and performed "Baby, I Love You" during Idol's Soul Week. Meanwhile, Paul McDonald's Rod Stewart biopic still languishes in development hell.

Ian Somerhalder and Nikki Reed got sweet during a casual stop at the farmers market in La on Sunday prompting buzz that they might be dating. While Nikki scoped out the local produce with a smile, Ian placed his hand on her neck and kissed her head. The Pda didn't stop there - Ian also rested his chin on her neck and wrapped his arm around her. After making her purchase, Nikki and Ian walked around the area and met up with a friend.
