DOLLY PARTON

YES! There's a new CD on the way from the fabulous Dolly Parton! Plus, she'll be touring - right now the closest she'll get to us is The Rosemont Theater in Chicago, but that's not too far of a drive.

The album will be called Better Day, and she says, "I wanted to do an album that would be very uplifting and positive, as well as inspirational. Times are hard all over. I think people need to feel better and I thought 'Better Day' was a perfect title because it says 'hope.'"

She'll appear on the Ellen Degeneres Show on May 26th where she will debut the lead-off single "Together You and I."

We're looking at June or July for the CD - which is a follow up to Backwoods Barbie which came out in 2008.

ANYONE HAVE THE OWN NETWORK?

Anyone? Well if you do you're lucky. You'll get to see the Judds series as well as Shania's series, "Why Not?"

The Judds show will debut on April 10th and is a six - part series that follows them around on their last tour.

Shania's "Why Not?" will debut on Mat 8th at 10pm. The first show will follow The Judds docu-series finale.

On May 15th "Why Not?" moves to its regular timeslog of 9pm.

"Why Not?" shows Shania's life after divorce as she shows how she put her life back together and moved on.
