Thomas Rhett often shares photos of his family on social media and lets people in on what happens in his daily life on and off stage. But he doesn't want to over-share.

He told us, “Honestly we’ve been asked a bunch of times to do a reality show, but I just don’t think that’s something me and Lauren … I mean we give enough of ourselves, I think, on social media and we pretty much open our home and our marriage to our fans in a way, where it’s like you see that the good, bad, the ugly. And I think a reality show might be too much.”

As far as acting, looking ahead to 2020, Thomas says, “This year will be the first time that I’m gonna try to start delving into a little bit more gettin’ behind the camera. And I don’t think I want to be like an ‘actor’ actor, but I think it would be pretty fun to be in a few scenes in a big movie or something like that.”

Nancy Brooks has been working in the country music industry for almost 30 years. She has interviewed pretty much any country star you can think of. In the late 1990s, she started working with Dolly Parton. And yes, Nancy reports that Parton is as sweet as you would think. She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s. Many of her stories are from her one-on-one interviews. She was there at the beginning of the incredible careers of many music superstars today, including Taylor Swift, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton, and has interviewed them multiple times throughout the years.
