Former Nashville Bodyguard spills beans on rumored Faith Hill, Lee Ann Womack Catfight in upcoming tell-all book

In a recent interview with a Nashville radio station  former bodyguard to the stars Steve Decker gives his recollection of the widely rumored but never confirmed "catfight" that took place between singers Faith Hill and Leanne Womack backstage at the 2002 CMA awards in his soon to be published "tell all" book. Although not divulging all the details he did give this juicy morsel.
 Cobb who was working for Reba Mcentire at the time, claims that he stepped out of the dressing room area for a cigarette only to here two women arguing. when the shouting turned to screaming Cobb rushed back inside to find Hill had Womack pinned against the wall with one hand wrapped around the singers throat. "I just froze for a moment" explained Cobb I could not believe what I was seeing".  Cobb then proceeded to pull Hill off of Womack who was uninjured except for a swollen lip. "Lee Ann might want to grow a little before tangling with a woman 6 inches taller than her" Cobb joked "Especially one from Mississippi!" Get all the sordid details when Decker's book hits the shelves later this year.

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill bringing togetherness to upcoming Venetian run


Country music’s loving couple Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have promised Venetian executives that they will be together onstage the entire time for their upcoming 40-show residency, which starts in December.
The duo look and act like lovebirds after 16 years of marital bliss.
In a video interview for Venetian executives and staff, the chart-toppers explain why they said “yes” to the offer to perform on the Strip. For one, they look forward to performing for people who have never heard or seen them before and who might never have visited Las Vegas before.
“This is really going to be fun! The Venetian approached us about this idea, and it sounded like a great thing to be a part of. They’re great people to work for — they’ve been fantastic,” said Tim. “It just fit our schedules and it fit our lifestyle and what’s going on in our lives during this time, so it seemed like it made sense.
"This is different because, really, this show is about us together; it’s not about us individually at all. We’ll do a few of our songs, of course, but this is really about us singing our songs together and being together onstage the entire time.”
"This guy here has so much stage presence and charisma and just really knows how to be with the audience, work the audience and just bring them in such a way," said Faith. "I’m still — after all these years — completely impressed and blown away. I feel like a student, honestly. I’m more comfortable standing behind a microphone and just singing and talking to my band. If I get to talking to the crowd, I probably never will stop — but it’s very different than how he does it. He’s the consummate performer.”
"We’re two different types of singers, and I think that’s what’s fun for us to sing together," said Tim. "I mean, besides the fact that we’re married and I love hearing her sing and I think she’s one of the greatest singers in the world. But to be able to sing a different style of music that sort of happens on its own when we sing together is what’s fun for me.”
