MARTINA MCBRIDE REGULARLY TAKES FANS “BEHIND THE CURTAIN” OF HER LIFE ON THE ROAD 
The Superstar Personally Holds Scavenger Hunts for Free Tickets
on Each Tour Stop and “Tweets” Clues
 
Nashville, TN (March 24, 2010) – Multi-platinum selling recording artist Martina McBride is the first to admit that the life of a superstar isn’t always glamorous but that doesn’t stop her from taking her fans “into the action,” whether it be to a monthly marketing meeting, a more exciting behind the scenes look at a shoot for her latest music video, or one of a kind backstage access on the “Shine All Night” tour. McBride doesn’t just take the fans to the action but encourages them to be a part of it, whether it be via Twitter, her current Myspace karaoke competition or other online contests.

Myspace.com and McBride have teamed up to give fans the chance to karaoke for the superstar. The competition allows fans to belt out songs from Shine, including her current Top 20 single, “Wrong, Baby, Wrong,” as well as McBride classics, including “This One’s For The Girls.”  Myspace.com will narrow down the entries to 20 and McBride will pick the winner, who gets travel and accommodations to meet the superstar and check out the “Shine All Night” tour stop in Altanta, GA on May 1. Fans can log on tohttp://ksolo.myspace.com/music/Martina-McBride to hit McBride with their best shot.

Fans that aren’t so eager to sing for the superstar, can simply follow McBride on Twitter for more ticket giveaways.  McBride gives fans the chance to win tickets for each show via a Twitter scavenger hunt.  She personally hides the tickets with a hand-written note on the day of the show and the hunt begins. McBride tweets clues for the location of the tickets until they are found.  Winners are encouraged to tweet a photo of themselves with the tickets.

“The Twitter ticket hunt is a really fun way to connect with the fans in each city and we have a blast doing it,” says McBride. “I tweet the clues myself so it’s really cool to see the winners in the front row. Sometimes they even bring the envelope and wave and say thanks!”

“Martina Moments” have been taking fans “behind the curtain” since May 2009 and the fun continues this week as fans get a backstage look at how McBride prepares for her show with the “Dance Party” episode. It will be available on Thursday at www.MartinaMcBride.com <http://www.MartinaMcBride.com>. Other moments, including a visit to McBride’s hometown, McBride onstage with Kid Rock and behind the scenes at the video shoot for “Wrong, Baby, Wrong” can be found on her site as well.  New moments are added weekly.
 
Fans can chat with McBride tomorrow evening at 7:00 pm central. Fan club members can log on to ask questions on her website and everyone can view the web chat at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/martina-mcbride-live-chat
 
McBride will continue the fun this weekend when she gives fans another glimpse of life on the road as she invites music critic Alison Bonaguro to check out her “Shine All Night” tour and blog forhttp://blog.cmt.com/author/bonaguro and http://twitter.com/alisonbonaguro .

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

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... They shot at a law enforcement officer outside of Tampa Bay, Fla., and when they fired inside that bank in Valdosta, Ga. 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.
