Chris Willman Senior Music Writer and Chief Music Critic In an ultimate show-must-go-on moment in country music history, Wynonna Judd was not about to let the legacy of the Judds slip quietly into the sunset, rather than go out as spectacularly as intended, after her mother, Naomi Judd, died by suicide in April 2022. And so the Judds farewell tour that had been scheduled for last fall did proceed, against all probabilities, with a bevy of top stars trading places as Naomi’s stand-in each night. The emotional end of that road was captured for not just one but two new specials premiering on different Paramount platforms — “Wynonna Judd: Between Hell and Hallelujah,” a feature-length documentary that debuted Wednesday on Paramount+, and “The Judds: Love Is Alive — The Final Concert,” a two-hour performance special bowing tonight on CMT.
With the on-air premieres of the doc and concert special being spaced a few days apart, Judds fans don’t have to consume them both in one fell swoop, but the biggest devotees of the history-making mother/daughter duo may well make a “Girls Night Out” binge out of the two programs anyway. No one will be punished for picking their own viewing order, but CMT’s Margaret Comeaux, one of the executive producers of the concert film, suggests starting with the doc and saving the live show for dessert. “I think that’s probably the preferred order,” Comeaux says, “because I think the story that the doc is telling of the whole year leads us to the final story we’re telling in the concert special, with the culmination in Murfreesboro.” That’s the Tennessee city where Judd and all the guest stars who appeared along last fall’s tour routing converged for a show that was meant to more or less recreate

Jimmie Allen has been sued for sexual assault and abuse by a former member of his management team.The plaintiff, known as Jane Doe to protect her identity, alleges that when she was employed by Allen’s music company, Allen raped her and repeatedly subjected her to sexual abuse and harassment over a period of 18 months (as per Variety).Across two conversations with Variety, Doe claims she was manipulated and groomed by Allen into a sexually abusive and controlling relationship. Doe is now suing Allen, as well as her former employer, Wide Open Music and its founder, Ash Bowers.In the civil lawsuit against Allen, Bowers and Wide Open Music, filed in May 11 in Tennessee, Allen is being sued for “sexual battery, assault, false imprisonment, sex trafficking and emotional distress; Bowers and Wide Open Music are being sued for gross negligence and participating in a venture engaged in sex trafficking, among other counts,” as per Variety.In a statement to Variety, Allen denies the accusations and claims he had a consensual sexual relationship with his day-to-day manager.“It is deeply troubling and hurtful that someone I counted as one of my closest friends, colleagues and confidants would make allegations that have no truth to them whatsoever,” the musician said in a statement.“I acknowledge that we had a sexual relationship — one that lasted for nearly two years.
graced the Ford Center stage in Frisco, Texas, the “No Fences” crooner labeled Parton as the “G.O.A.T” — meaning she’s the “greatest of all time.” The “9 to 5” singer then strolled onto the platform while pulling a cart with an actual goat sitting in it. “I’ve got your G.O.A.T. right here!” she laughed as she took her place next to Brooks.Parton then couldn’t help but gush over her co-emcee’s musical gifts, saying: “He changed the name of country music forever.”“In a flash, he became one of the biggest stars of all time,” she said.Then the Tennessee native revealed why she believes that Brooks called her the “G.O.A.T.”“I think it stands for ‘Garth organized a threesome!’” she joked on air.Parton added that she is the “Not Counting On You” musician’s “hall pass” — meaning that she is his one chance to have an affair without any repercussions from his wife.Yearwood and Brooks have been married since 2005, while Parton wedded Carl Thomas Dean in 1996.Parton also sang a beautiful tribute to the late Loretta Lynn and Naomi Judd at the ceremony.

Richard Curtis I remember once watching an episode of “Game of Thrones” and thinking to myself: “My brother-in-law is right. My films are pathetic.” “Game of Thrones” have deadly dragons, I’ve got lukewarm cups of tea. They’ve got epic battles, I’ve got people being slightly off with each other. At the end of my films two people kiss – at the end of their episodes they cut each other’s heads off. So imagine my surprise and delight when I found myself on the phone to two of the stars of the show themselves: Kit Harington and Rose Leslie (who played Jon Snow and Ygritte). It wasn’t, alas, to talk them into appearing in “Notting Hill Apocalypse” or something juicy that would turn my career around. But on the other hand, it was about the gravest threat facing us all – not the Night King, but climate change.
