XOXO, Gossip Girl

Column by Breanna Sill, Features Editor For my final column as Features Editor I am going to share one of my favorite celebrity encounters. In 2012, I was in Nashville, Tenn., for CMA Music Festival week once again and that year, the CMT Awards were held during the same week also and they had a special celebrity Read More

“At the top.”

So it seems like I get email upon email from people who read my column and want me to give them tips on how they can meet their favorite celebrity. While I am always up for sharing a few tips, one tip I thought I would never need to share would be to take advantage Read More

Forever a fangirl

(WITH VIDEO) – While I guess it’s no secret, I have a habit of running into famous people. I am not the only person who enjoys the occasional run-in with a celeb. On the sad, but off chance I can’t make the trip to wherever my friends are headed for the next big concert, they Read More
