JASON ALDEAN PARKS HIS
"BIG GREEN TRACTOR" AT NO. ONE
FOR FOUR CONSECUTIVE WEEKS

GOLD Certified "Big Green Tractor"
Makes Country Music History At No. One
On Billboard's All Genre Ringscan Chart


NASHVILLE, TN - Sept. 14, 2009 - Country music star Jason Aldean is celebrating his fourth consecutive week at No. one on both the Billboard and Mediabase charts this week with his laid back country love song "Big Green Tractor."  Aldean is the only artist to hold the No. one position for four straight weeks in more than 18 months.  Brad Paisley's "Letter to Me" had a four-week run in Feb. 2008.

"This is crazy.  The guys I've always looked up to...my heroes...are the ones who are supposed to be sitting up there at the top," said Aldean.  "Man, I feel like I'm constantly thanking country radio and the fans, but they truly are a huge part of the reason I'm having such a great year.  It motivates me to go out and work harder than I ever have before. The fans and all their energy and support are fueling everything I'm doing right now...it feels incredible!"

Aldean also makes country music history this week as the first country artist to ever take the No. one spot on the Billboard all-genre Ringscan chart. "Big Green Tractor" edged out the rest of the Top Five including superstars Jay Z, Drake, Mariah Carey and The Black Eyed Peas. The smash hit has also just been certified GOLD by the RIAA for digital sales, making it the 2nd track from his critically acclaimed third album WIDE OPEN to claim that status.

No core country artist has crossed over more titles to AC. Rogers has scored eight AC No. 1s. Rogers: "I remember when [the AC charts] were established, I thought it was so cool. I've always been a believer in the strength of the song. My problem is I'm a country singer who's had a lot of other musical influences, so my stuff is going to tend to be more AC. That's always been my slam in country music, that I was never a true country artist, even though &q

They call her..The Bare Naked Bandit..29 yr Old Lee Grace Doherty

ARRESTED now in Colorado...but what a story and week for 2 brothers and their stripper sister! Text messages and tweets by three fugitive siblings who shot at a police officer and robbed a bank reveal a dangerous mindset and a firm bond between the siblings, "We've certainly seen their mindset when...

But these additional texts and tweets have given us additional insight," FBI Special Agent Stephen Emmett told "Good Morning America" today. " We are concerned and feel that they are going to continue and cause problems to say the least for law enforcement." Ryan Dougherty, 21; his sister Lee Grace E. Dougherty, 29; and half-brother Dylan Dougherty Stanley, 26, have been on the lam since Aug. 2 when they shot at a police officer attempting to pull their white Subaru Impreza over for speeding.
