The Allure of Taylor Swift

Last Friday, Taylor Swift performed an unprecendented concert onboard the largest cruise ship in the world, Royal Caribbean's Allure of the Seas. Taylor's concert happened while the ship was docked in Cozumel, Mexico. The only people in attendance at the limited-capacity AquaTheatre were those who had been on the cruise all week and won tickets to the show by participating in a variety of Taylor-themed activities. Taylor and her band came aboard for the concert, after which they departed to prepare for the upcoming Speak Now World Tour and the ship sailed on. Now that the passengers are home, videos of the event are hitting the web. Check out this rare live performance of Taylor singing "Better Than Revenge" posted by one of the front and center concert-goers. Audio is low due to the outdoor amphitheatre. Depending on how the success of this event is judged by the cruiseline, could we be seeing this kind of port-side entertainment more often on cruise ships?


Ten of Toby Keith’s most prominent music videos will be compiled on an upcoming DVD, 10, a name derived from the number of awards Toby has won for videos throughout his career and the number of videos on the DVD. Look for it March 8th. Here are the videos you’ll see:
1. “Should’ve Been A Cowboy”
2. “How Do You Like Me Now?”
3. “Courtesy Of The Red, White, And Blue (The Angry American)”
4. “Beer For My Horses” feat. Willie Nelson
5. “I Love This Bar”
6. “American Soldier”
7. “As Good As I Once Was”
8. “American Ride”
9. “Bullets In The Gun”
10. “God Love Her”

And if you want a really good sports superstition story, you’ll be happy to know that The Pittsburgh Steelers’ lucky streak with Martina McBride continues. Martina is now 3-0 when it comes to singing the National Anthem at a Steelers playoff game that ended in the team headed to the Super Bowl. The Steelers will face the Green Bay Packers February 6th in Dallas. (Don’t forget to visit the contest page back on the main website to enter to win The Big Game Party for 20 people!)
