                                     Grammys Add Shelton, Nelson, Haggard, Kristofferson
Merle Haggard, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson and Blake Shelton will share the stage at the upcoming Grammy Awards to pay homage to their roots in Oklahoma and Texas.

This will be Haggard's first-ever performance on the show, according to the Recording Academy. The Grammy Awards will air live on CBS on Jan. 2
                    Taylor Swift donated $100,000 to the Nashville Symphony


Taylor Swift celebrated her 24th birthday ( Dec. 13) by giving a generous gift, instead of receiving one. In honor of her big day, the singer donated $100,000 to the Nashville Symphony.
The gift comes at an important time for the Music City venue. The Nashville Symphony considered filing for bankruptcy earlier this year, and continue to try to recover from their financial losses.
This is not the ‘Sweeter Than Fiction’ singer’s first donation to her local community. She previously donated an astonishing $4 million to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, with the money funding the Taylor Swift Education Center.
Swift is home for the holidays before she kicks off the final leg of her year-long, worldwide Red Tour, which will play a series of shows in London in 2014, as well as a stop in Berlin

23 year-old Taylor Swift is a seven-time GRAMMY winner, and is the youngest winner in history of the music industry’s highest honor, the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. She is the only female artist in music history (and just the fourth artist ever) to twice have an album (2012’s RED and 2010’s Speak Now) hit the 1 million first-week sales figure.
With RED, Taylor became the first artist since the Beatles (and the only female artist in history) to log six or more weeks at #1 with three consecutive studio albums. RED has topped the Billboard 200 Albums Chart for seven weeks, following Fearless (11 weeks), and Speak Now (six weeks).
