The Miracle on Broadway concert occurred Saturday, Dec. 20, in Nashville with Meghan Trainor, Brooks & Dunn and Martina McBride. It raised $200,000 before Brooks and Yearwood matched that total, bringing the sum to $400,000, the "Tennessean" reports."I figured if I got [McEntire], everyone would have to say yes," Clarkson said about her mother-in-law. "I've never asked an artist to do anything other than sing with me, which a lot of people say no and it hurts my feelings, which is OK."Kacey Musgraves and Paramore's Hayley Williams were also on hand.Dolly Parton had a scheduling conflict, but she promised to be there next year.

    Some of the music industry's most powerful women gathered last week for "Billboard's" Women in Music Awards. Taylor Swift, Beyoncé and Aretha Franklin attended the ceremony while some of 2014's standout ladies took home awards. Ariana Grande's speech for her Rising Star Award was a talking point from the night, but mostly due to her brother Frankie.The most confusing part of the speech was Frankie's involvement.

It was nice that Frankie was excited about the win, but tone it down a bit. Your sister can handle this by herself. Check out the awkward moment below and head to the 2:25 mark to see the Queen of Soul's reaction.
