Brad Paisley - American Saturday Night

Brad Paisley Kicks Off an "American Saturday Night"

Brad Paisley started the evening off on a high note, performing the lively title track from his 2009 album American Saturday Night at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, Tenn. Wearing a bright red guitar strap and gleaming white hat, the country star opened the show with summertime memories of "a French kiss, Italian ice/ Margaritas in the moonlight/ Just another American Saturday night" while backed by his socially-distanced band. Later, he also performed his teamwork-makes-the-drink-work quarantine anthem "There's No I in Beer."



Lady A Debuts Their New Name Live

Early in the special, newly-christened Lady A took the stage at the Grand Ole Opry to perform their 2017 single "You Look Good." The performance marked the country trio's first televised appearance since announcing last month that they'd be dropping "Antebellum" from their name in response to the nationwide Black Lives Matter protests. Later in the show, Lady A also performed "Champagne Night," the winning track from their recent episode of NBC's Songland. Penned by Canadian singer-songwriter Madeline Merlo, the song has so far peaked at No. 27 on Billboard's Hot Country Songs chart, and marks the first winning entry from the songwriting competition series to be sent to radio as an official single.

Stories of "The American Spirit"

Between songs, the special ran a number of inspirational segments centered on "The American Spirit." Featuring essential workers, activists and other do-gooders, as well as notable stars like actor Danny Trejo and Olympic gold medalist Joanna Hayes, the packages presented an inclusive, hopeful look at the ways Americans around the country have persevered through the COVID-19 pandemic, nationwide protests for racial equity and other societal upheaval we've all faced in recent months.



Tim McGraw's Sentimental One-Two Punch

For his two performances during the special, Tim McGraw offered up a double dose of nostalgia and feelings -- first delivering his 1999 summertime classic "Something Like That" followed by his 2020 single "I Called Mama." While he has yet to officially announce a new album on the heels of the tearjerking ballad, the country star's latest track has further cemented his icon status by giving him chart hits across four separate decades. (Thus far, "I Called Mama" has peaked at No. 22 on the Hot Country Songs chart.)

Chelsea Handler is one of the few celebrities who really spent her 4th of July holiday, engaging in carefree events around the home . The American comedian recently shared a photo where all she did in it, was serve her fans with her gorgeous and flawless looking skin in a big pool.
