This year's 4th of July is going to be a booming celebration! Tim McGraw will partner up with Mariah Carey to headline the 2013 Macy's 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular.

'American Idol' used to be the hottest show on television, but after 13 years, it's starting to show its age. The show's ratings have slipped from regularly having 30 million viewers to now somewhere around 11 million.

Keith Urban has spoken out about the cat fight heard 'round the world. At a film premiere in New York last night, the country star responded to a reporter's questions about the confrontation that took place Tuesday between fellow 'American Idol' judges Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey, saying he was the United Nations in the situation.
