It's April 17th. Welcome in. This is Entertainment and celebrity news today, where the headlines shine, powered by AI. Billy Ray Cyrus just dropped some real talk on Sky News this past Tuesday, April 14th, about why he performs for presidents from both sides of the aisle. He credits his dad, a Democrat, who served over 20 years in the Kentucky legislature, for the advice when the president calls you show up. This has rock stages for Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, George W. Bush, George H.W. Bush, and Donald Trump. He also shared that being president is no easy gig, so he praised for the country, the leader in office, and the whole world. This comes after his wild-set at Trump's inauguration, Liberty Ball last year, where tech glitches hit hard, no backing track, mumbled words, leaving. The crowds scratching their heads. Times were straight up baffled by that performance, calling it one of the strangest moments in recent music history. But Cyrus has always been about crossing party lines, keeping entertainment above politics,

fast-forward, and he clapped back in a statement, saying he'd never skip an invite from the president. Glitches are not. He owned the chaos, calling it pure rock and roll go on stage, entertain the people, and have a blast, no matter what. That's the vibe from Billy Ray, serve the call, pray it up, and keep the music rolling for everyone.
