A 22-year-old Chicago man was arrested after he allegedly tried to swim up to Taylor Swift's new Rhode Island home. The incident happened around 2AM Wednesday morning (May 15). He was taken into custody and charged with trespassing after admitting his plan to police.

The man's name has not been released, but according to TMZ he admitted to swimming one mile to a beach near Swift's home, spotted her security team and decided to swim back to where he came from. That's when he was discovered and approached by police. According to the Weather Channel, average Rhode Island coastal water temperatures for this time of year are near 60 degrees.

Country great Ray Price is still in the hospital, but feeling better after being admitted last week for severe dehydration. A note from his wife Janie offers new details about what sent the 'Make the World Go Away' singer to the hospital initially.

According to a message posted on his official Facebook page, Price was on medication for post-radiation syndrome. The medication caused him to have "extreme diarrhea," resulting in heavy loss of body fluid. After five days, Price has been upgraded to "good and improving daily."

Kellie Pickler Advances to 'Dancing With the Stars' Finals

ABC

Kellie Pickler learned she'd advance to next week's 'Dancing With the Stars' finals during Tuesday night's (March 14) results show. The country singer was the second contestant of the remaining five deemed as safe. For the first time ever, four dancers will compete during the show's final week.

Pickler and partner Derek Hough's dazzling Argentine Tango earned a perfect 30 from the judges on Monday night, but a 28 after her Flamenco left the 'Someone Somewhere Tonight' singer in a tie for third. It's not clear if any of the remaining four contestants were truly in danger, but Disney star Zandaya was the last to be called safe after a disappointing total of 55 on Monday.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - When the women in Pistol Annies get together, song ideas just fall out.

They spent two days together recently to do promotional work for their new album, "Annie Up," and had the makings for eight new song ideas- practically a whole album - by the afternoon of the second day.

"Somebody can just say something, we write it in our phone and it becomes a song," Miranda Lambert said. "Like the other day I said, 'My mom's wine store would probably do way better in our Baptist town if it had a back door.' So now we've got 'Back-door Bar.' As simple as that it can be."

LOS ANGELES (AP) - "American Idol" finalist Angie Miller won't be tickling the ivories on this season's final showdown.

The piano-playing 19-year-old singer from Beverly, Mass., was revealed Thursday to have received the fewest viewer votes on the Fox talent contest, leaving 23-year-old R&B vocalist Candice Glover of St. Helena Island, S.C., and 22-year-old country crooner Kree Harrison of Woodville, Texas, to compete on next week's finale.

"I love you guys," Miller said to Glover and Harrison before her dismissal.

NEW YORK (AP) - Even though a cowboy hat sighting on Fifth Avenue is still pretty rare, country music has made an important move into New York City.

Country has its own radio station in the nation's largest market for the first time in 17 years. WNSH-FM, which calls itself "NASH 94.7," began broadcasting in January and its operators say it has established itself more quickly than expected during its first few months on the air.

For country musicians, the news gets a big yee-haw.

"I feel proud for country music," said Dave Haywood of Lady Antebellum. "It shows that you cannot deny where country music is in today's overall music world."

While no one considers New York to be Nashville North, it was a curious absence. Country went off the air in 1996 when WYNY switched formats. Before that, the fabled WHN and Lone Star Cafe were the capitals of country in the big city from 1973 to 1987.
