Alan Jackson, Tony Blair in White House Video Wed. December 12.2007 6:14 PM EST
Two unlikely actors -- Alan Jackson and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair -- are featured in the latest White House online video featuring the first family's Scottish terriers, Barney and Miss Beazley. President Bush, wife Laura and daughters Jenna and Barbara also have roles in the seven-minute video titled Barney Cam VI: Holiday in the National Parks. In it, the canines dream of becoming junior park rangers while they wander around the White House. In one of the dream sequences, Jackson makes a cameo appearance and says, "Junior park ranger? OK, Barney, now you've gone country." In a subsequent dream sequence, Blair congratulates the two dogs after they're named junior park rangers. "Well done," he says. "As someone born in Edinburgh, Scotland, it's always good to see the Scots doing well." View the video. Jason Aldean to Headline at Theaters and Clubs Wed. December 12.2007 6:14 PM EST After opening shows for Rascal Flatts this year, Jason Aldean will headline a tour of theaters and clubs in early 2008. The tour kicks off Jan. 17 in Columbia, Mo., and will travel to 20 cities in the U.S. and Canada through early March. "I have learned a lot from being on the road with Rascal Flatts this year about the kind of arena tour I want to have one day," Aldean says. "But the first step is to go back to some smaller venues and keep building our fan base one show at a time. We won't stop playing until everybody in the place is on their feet and having a good time." Aldean also performs with Blake Shelton during a New Year's Eve show at Rupp Arena in Lexington, Ky.
