On tonight's (Dec. 11) elimination episode of 'The Voice,' Blake Shelton's team, featuring Cassadee Pope and Terry McDermott, remained in tact. Both Pope and McDermott are moving on to next week's finals, doubling the country star's chances of being the show's winning coach for a second season in a row. Shelton could make 'The Voice' history and he's gunning for it.
Season 2 'The Voice' contestant, that firecracker known as RaeLynn, returned the stage where we first met her this evening (Dec. 11) to debut her brand new single 'Boyfriend.' She performed the song live on the elimination episode of the show, which should remind the remaining Season 3 hopefuls of what's possible whether or not you win the whole thing.
On Monday's (Dec. 10) semi-finals episode of 'The Voice,' Blake Shelton team member Cassadee Pope turned in an absolutely stunning version of Keith Urban's 'Stupid Boy.' It was a showstopper performance -- one that should have Shelton convinced he has at least one contestant in the finals.
Congratulationss are in order for country heavyweights Jason Aldean, Luke Bryan, Kenny Chesney, Eric Church, Toby Keith, Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood.

Blake Shelton and Christina Aguilera are co-workers, serving as coaches on 'The Voice.' But they also duet on 'Just a Fool,' a torchy ballad from her new album 'Lotus.' They performed an emotional, gripping and ultimately moving rendition of the song on 'The Ellen Show' yesterday (Dec. 7) and if we didn't know any better, we'd think there was something between the singers!
The 'E! Special: LeAnn Rimes' interview will air tomorrow (Dec. 9) at 8PM ET on the network. A preview clip has been released, showing the country singer, who has engaged in a very public battle of words and retorts with husband Eddie Cibrian's ex-wife Brandi Glanville that has gotten exceedingly ugly in recent days, break down in tears over the cheating scandal that has plagued her life and made her tabloid fodder for the past few years. She also admits that she and Cibrian were in broken marriages.
Joe Nichols has shared his absolutely adorable Christmas card for 2012. The star of the holiday greeting? His daughter, Dylan, who is just about to turn 8 months old.
