Jessie James Decker talks 'struggle' of being a working mom with 4 kids... after knockout bikini campaign
Jessie James Decker has struggled with mom guilt. The 37-year-old singer - who has Vivianne, 11, Eric Jr, nine, Forrest, seven, and Denver, 17 months, with her husband Eric Decker - has stepped back from touring in recent times in order to focus on her family life. Asked if she plans to tour again, Jessie said on Instagram: 'One day. I've struggled with the emotions of it all lately because I love touring and singing. That's what I've done my whole life, people forget but that's how I got started in this business. 'But I struggled this last time leaving the babies that I knew I needed to take a beat,' she added. Jessie is determined to be present for key milestones in the lives of her children. The music star - who has been married to Eric since 2013 - said: 'My kids need me. They're so little and I don't want to miss anything. I know the stage is always there for me when I'm ready again.' Earlier this year Daily Mail talked to Decker about her Cupshe collection. 'I'm excited for Kittenish to collaborate with Cupshe on this swimwear line,' the star shared. 'At Kittenish, we share the same vision—empowering women to feel confident, beautiful, and stylish without breaking the bank,' said Decker. 'We believe in creating pieces that celebrate every woman and every body, at any stage of life. 'For this collection, I drew inspiration from my travels to the Mediterranean—the vibrant colors, stunning prints, and effortless beauty of the coast. I can't wait for everyone to experience it.' The collection includes 31 women's pieces, such as bikinis, one-pieces, swim cover-ups, vacation dresses, and jumpsuits. For the first time, Cupshe and Kittenish are also introducing matching couples' styles, featuring five button-down tops and seven board shorts in complementary colors and prints that coordinate with the women's line. 'This exclusive swim and apparel collection brings together Cupshe's signature beach-ready style with the bold, feminine aesthetic of Decker's fashion and lifestyle brand, Kittenish,' the brand told 'The collection also marks a significant milestone for Cupshe, introducing the brand's first-ever matching couples' styles.

Chris Stapleton's Rollicking And Powerful ‘Road Show' Makes A Stop In The Big Apple
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE - NOVEMBER 20: (EDITORIAL USE ONLY) Chris Stapleton performs onstage during The ... More 58th Annual CMA Awards at Bridgestone Arena on November 20, 2024 in Nashville, Tennessee (Photo by Astrida Valigorsky/WireImage) For two nights, New York City was briefly transformed into Music City U.S.A., when country singer-guitarist Chris Stapleton brought his ongoing All-American Road Show tour to Madison Square Garden showing once again what a generational talent he is. On Saturday, the second of a two-night sold-out stand at the Garden, Stapleton and his superb band performed an exhaustive set of favorites from his catalog. That included a good portion of songs from his 2015 breakthrough debut album Traveller, which recently marked its 10th anniversary. The current tour comes on the heels of Stapleton, a recipient of multiple awards, being named Male Artist of the Year at the 60th Annual ACM Awards for the fifth time this past May. What makes Stapleton's music so unique and compelling is that while he is country in the traditional sense, the musician also incorporates other influences such as blues, heartland rock, Southern rock and soul, all of which conjures legends such as Stevie Ray Vaughan, the Allman Brothers, Eric Clapton and Otis Redding. Additionally, his hard-bitten yet tender lyrics are quite relatable in the everyman vein of Bruce Springsteen and Bob Seger in addition to paying homage to the outlaw greats such as Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. Chris Stapleton at New York City's Madison Square Garden on July 26, 2025. The diverse nature of Stapleton's country sound was evident at Saturday's show, which kicked off with the rock-soul hybrid 'Bad as I Used to Be,' his latest single that appears on the F1 movie soundtrack. Afterwards, it was one powerful performance after another during the two-hour set that varied between outlaw-styled rockers ('Devil Always Made Think Twice,' 'Hard Livin'' and 'Midnight Train to Memphis') and soulful ballads (among them 'It Takes a Woman' and 'What Am I Gonna Do,' both off his last studio album, 2023's Higher). Stapleton and the band were superb throughout the night, and the guitarist blew everybody away with his instrumental prowess, especially on 'I Was Wrong' and the gut-wrenching 'Cold,' and during his solo spotlight, where it was just him and his six-string on 'Maggie's Song' and 'Barely Alive.' His gritty, soulful vocals sent chills, particularly on the blues ballad 'Sometimes I Cry.' That quality in his distinctive singing made his songs, especially about heartbreak and love gone awry, so resonant and authentic. New York City is not generally known as a hub for country music. But the faithful in their cowboy hats were full force that Saturday night at the Garden (at times, they were singing the words to certain songs), while Stapleton effortlessly had the packed crowd under his spell. Chris Stapleton's All-American Road Show continues through October. Setlist: Bad As I Used To Be Midnight Train to Memphis Arkansas What Am I Gonna Do Worry B Gone Devil Always Made Me Think Twice Millionaire Parachute It Takes a Woman Think I'm in Love With You Maggie's Song Barely Alive I Was Wrong White Horse Cold Starting Over Crosswind Hard Livin' You Should Probably Leave Might as Well Get Stoned Sometimes I Cry Fire Away Broken Halos Tennessee Whiskey Encore: Nobody to Blame You Are My Sunshine Outlaw State of Mind

Miley Cyrus Says She Has No ‘Desire' to Tour as ‘It's Really Hard to Maintain Sobriety' on the Road
Miley Cyrus is getting real about the drawbacks of touring, revealing on Good Morning America that she has no 'desire' to hit the road again any time soon. In the interview posted Tuesday (July 15), the pop star opened up about her decision not to promote her new album Something Beautiful with a run of shows. 'I do have the physical ability, and I have the opportunities to tour,' she explained on GMA. 'I wish I had the desire, but I don't. I also don't think that there's actually an infrastructure that supports artists.' More from Billboard Miley Cyrus Reacts to Full-Circle Hollywood Walk of Fame Star: 'This Moment Will Live Forever' Tomorrowland 2025 Mainstage Destroyed by Fire Ahead of Festival Alison Krauss & Union Station, Billy Strings Lead 2025 IBMA Bluegrass Music Awards Nominees 'The artists like Prince that are not here today that lived such a high-intensity lifestyle out on the road … It's really hard to maintain sobriety when you're on the road, which is a really important pillar of stability in my life,' she continued. 'It's really hard to keep mental wellness [on tour]. You have so many thousands of people screaming at you, so dopamine, you're feeling a lot of love, and then you totally crash at the end of the show. You start thinking that one person loving you's not enough, it needs to be 10,000, it needs to be 80,000.' That said, Cyrus clarified that her decision to not tour has nothing to do with being 'afraid' of the challenge. 'I like to do things I'm afraid of,' she said. 'I've jumped out of airplanes. I've performed for 150,000 people.' 'I stood toe-to-toe with Beyoncé,' she continued, referencing her surprise performance of 'II Most Wanted' at a June Cowboy Carter Tour show in Paris. 'When you're standing beside her, you can actually feel her desire and her passion.' Indeed, not a lot of artists can say they've performed alongside Queen Bey, who first tapped Cyrus for Cowboy Carter duet 'II Most Wanted' in March 2024. The crowd went crazy when the Hannah Montana alum appeared on stage at Stade de France stadium and started singing with the night's headliner, with Bey giving her a hug and kiss on the cheek. 'That to me is a win,' Cyrus reflected on the performance. 'It's not a trophy, it's not something physical that you hold or put on a shelf, but it's something that I have that's a true win.' Despite how much fun she had singing with Beyoncé, Cyrus has been open about her aversion to scheduling a tour of her own. In 2023, she shared a statement with fans about not wanting to tour anymore, writing, 'This has nothing to do with a lack of appreciation for the fans & everything to do with I simply don't want to get ready in a locker room … I just don't want to sleep on a moving bus.' And in a May interview with Apple Music 1's Zane Lowe, she said that while she's sometimes tempted to make tour arrangements, she knows it's best for her sobriety and vocal health to abstain from road life. 'I've learned this about myself over the years,' she said at the time. 'The sobriety is like, that's like my God. I need it, I live for it. I mean that it's changed my entire life.'
