Rumor Denied: No Tim Mcgraw for Governor

Just as the rumors surfaced that Tim McGraw was running for Governor of Tennessee in 2010, he says that he has no plans in the immediate future to give up singing for a political seat.

Of the rumors, he says, “There’s no truth to this.” His rep also added, “It’s something he is interested in, but not for 2010. Later in life.”

What started the rumors was how he admitted that politics might be in the future for him. He said, “I grew up in Louisiana and politics is kind of a contact sport and you grow up knowing about it. I’ve always been fascinated by what can be done in the public arena. And if the time comes when there’s something available and I think I can do some positive things, I’ll be glad to do it. I wouldn’t want to do it just to say I did it.”

And there you have it! He may still run for office, it’s just not going to be anytime soon.

Ray actor Jamie Foxx is getting ready to make a guest appearance on forthcoming tracks by country legends Rascall Flatts. Foxx has been pals with Gary LeVox for over ten years and LeVox insists that Foxx is keen to duet with him. The only tradeoff is that Rascall Flatts must return the favor and guest on of his songs.

LeVox says, “Jamie told me he’d do it if we would sing on one of his records so it’s a pretty good swap.”

So, there guest swapping?

Tim McGraw gets manhandled.

Faith Hill is pretty pissed. After all, her husband, country singer Tim McGraw, was recently fondled by a fan at the scene of one of their concerts. This chick got a good ol’ grasp on Tim’s junk, leaving his wifey and onstage companion quite irate. Faith Hill approached the fan and said, “You don’t go grabbin’ somebody’s husband’s private parts; you understand me?”

And understand, she did not.
