WATCH: Megan Moroney Joins Tate McRae To Perform ‘6 Months Later’ In Nashville

Megan Moroney was the surprise guest at Tate McRae’s Nashville tour stop of her Miss Possessive Tour at Bridgestone Arena on Thursday (Sept. 11). McRae welcomed Moroney to the stage for a performance of Moroney’s current single, “6 Months Later.”

“I’m so excited to announce a special guest tonight. I’m such a massive fan. Give it up for Megan Moroney,” Tate shared from the stage. She was met with a huge round of cheers and applause.

Together, they were seated on stools, with Moroney holding her guitar, as they delivered a stripped-down performance of “6 Months Later.” The crowd could be heard singing along loudly in unison.

It appears the artists celebrated together after the show, as Megan and Tate shared a photo together afterward.

This isn’t the first time Moroney and McRae have collaborated on stage. Moroney previously popped up at McRae’s Nashville concert in 2024 when she headlined Ascend Amphitheater. Last summer, they teamed up to perform Moroney’s breakout hit “Tennessee Orange.”

“Oh how I love her,” McRae gushed at the time.

Moroney previously opened up about her friendship with McRae, revealing that they had been “internet friends” for quite some time before their first performance together. At the time, she admitted she would love the chance to write with McRae, though as of 2024, that opportunity hadn’t happened yet. It’s unclear if that has since changed.

Moroney is still flying high after her big win at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, where her PLATINUM-certified No. 1 hit “Am I Okay?” took home the moon person for the first-ever Best Country category. She also had the chance to showcase her Emo Cowgirl energy with a performance of “6 Months Later” on the Extended Play Stage.

Just a day later, on Monday, Moroney was revealed as one of the top nominees for the upcoming 59th Annual CMA Awards, earning six nominations alongside fellow powerhouse artists Ella Langley and Lainey Wilson.

Next up, Moroney will return to the road on her sold-out Am I Okay? Tour. Next up, the superstar will perform at Credit One Stadium in Charleston, South Carolina, and Bojangles Coliseum in Charlotte, North Carolina. The trek runs through mid-October.

Jason Aldean Dedicates ‘Try That In A Small Town’ to Late Friend Charlie Kirk in Detroit

Jason Aldean paid tribute to his late friend Charlie Kirk during his Detroit concert on Thursday evening, dedicating his performance of “Try That In A Small Town” to the Conservative activist and Turning Point USA co-founder.

Taking the stage at the sold-out Pine Knob Music Theatre, Aldean paused the show to share a few words with the audience, explaining that he needed to take a moment to acknowledge what had happened the day before.

@biancakajy Thank you Jason for doing this. May #CharlieKirk ♬ original sound – bianca kajy

“I couldn’t get through tonight without addressing something that happened yesterday, as you guys well know,” Aldean began. “An amazing person by the name of Charlie Kirk was murdered yesterday in Utah. This was a guy that I knew for a few years, had a chance to meet him on quite a few occasions, talk to him, one of the best people ever. I mean, this is not the guy you go after is what I’m trying to say.” 

The Georgia native went on to reflect on the current state of the USA, admitting, “it’s a weird country that we live in. When you start taking people out because you disagree with their opinions, that’s not what we’re about here.”

Before launching into his first-ever Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit, Aldean reflected on how Kirk had been one of the song’s earliest supporters, then dedicated that night’s performance to him.. 

“I remember when we put this song out, people like Charlie Kirk were some of the first ones to come up and go, ‘that’s what it’s about, this country coming together, calling out the bullsh** when we see it, trying to get everything back on track.’ This guy wanted nothing more than what was best for all of us and our kids and everything moving forward,” he continued. “Charlie’s a guy that’s going to be very, very much missed, and this is something that his legacy is going to live on forever with Turning Point and what he’s done with only 31 years on this planet. It’s amazing. So just a really tragic loss for everybody. I know you guys have been feeling it as well, so tonight, since he was one of the ones that stuck out for the song, let’s play this one for Charlie.”

Loud U-S-A chants ran throughout the crowd and people began to sing along as Aldean performed the song.

According to videos posted to TikTok, before Aldean’s set began, the big screens lit up with a “Rest in Peace” tribute photo of Kirk, as well as a “Never Forget” message in honor of the 24th anniversary of 9/11. As these messages were displayed, Toby Keith’s “Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue” played throughout the arena.

Lainey Wilson and Leanne Morgan Face Off in Hilarious Britney Spears Challenge on ‘Celebrity Family Feud’

Lainey Wilson, her fiancé Devlin “Duck” Hodges, and other members of her family faced off against actress and comedian Leanne Morgan and her family on the latest episode of Celebrity Family Feud.

The teams delivered hilarious answers throughout the game, but Wilson stole the spotlight during a memorable moment when she was asked to “name a Britney Spears song that describes you in the bedroom.”

Wilson and Morgan stood at the podium, ready to give their answers. Wilson hit the buzzer first and quickly replied, “hit me baby one more time,” referencing Spears’ 1998 breakout hit, “…Baby One More Time.”

Wilson and Morgan burst into laughter while host Steve Harvey appeared stunned by the risqué response. The camera quickly cut to Wilson’s fiancé, Duck, who grinned as he looked at her.

Her answer landed on the board, securing a play for her team.

The hilarity continued when Duck was asked to give an answer. 

“Oh God, Duck. If you name this song right here, your boys, they going to be laughing so hard,” host Steve Harvey joked. “Duck. Give me a Brittany Spears song that describes you in the bedroom.”

His response had everyone laughing.  

“Shake it,” he said. 

“Is that a Britney Spears song?” Harvey questioned, while Duck admitted, “I don’t think it’s a song.”

That answer, of course, did not appear on the board, nor did her mother’s response, “Bump It.” Her sister earned the team another spot with “Circus,” as did her brother-in-law’s answer, “Slave,” referencing Spears’ “I’m a Slave 4 U.”

Wilson had one more chance and guessed “Lucky,” which was a solid choice, though it also did not make the board.

Morgan followed with “Oops!…I Did It Again,” which turned out to be the number one answer.

Lainey Wilson is currently in the middle of her biggest tour yet, her headlining Whirlwind Tour. Earlier this week, she was revealed to be one of the top nominees for the upcoming 59th Annual CMA Awards alongside Ella Langley and Megan Moroney. 

Wilson is nominated for six awards, including the night’s top honor of Entertainer of the Year.
