Born with country music in her blood thanks to her grandmother Loretta Lynn, Emmy Russell always seemed destined to perform on stage. Like many before her, the singer struggled with her own identity when trying to find her footing. And while she competed on American Idol, ultimately being voted off, the singer used that moment to not only find herself but also her voice. Releasing songs like “Skinny”, Russell continues to make a name for herself in the music industry. Proving that she could succeed outside of American Idol, the singer recently crossed a massive milestone on Spotify.

As fans, we naturally gravitate to the songs and storytellers that tell our story. For example, Luke Combs is pushing all the right buttons in 2024 for anyone who is new to fatherhood.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.
