Country Music Icon Zach Top Announces Baby's Gender — And It's an Epic Fail
Country Music Icon Zach Top Announces Baby's Gender — And It's an Epic Fail originally appeared on Parade. Note to self: maybe don't let Zach Top reveal the gender of your baby. One brave couple thought they had the perfect plan for their gender reveal, but things went hilariously wrong when the country superstar tried to help them out in front of hundreds of thousands of people at the West Virginia State Fair. The moment started innocently enough. During his performance, Top spotted a couple in the crowd holding up a sign that caught his attention. Getting a closer look, he realized they wanted him to do something pretty special — reveal the gender of their unborn child to the entire audience. Always one to connect with his fans, Top grabbed the paper from the expectant parents, ready to make their moment unforgettable. However, as he prepared to make the big announcement, he discovered a major problem, the page was completely blank. Somewhat confused and probably feeling the pressure of hundreds of thousands of eyes on him, the singer quickly flipped the paper over. That's when he found the gender written on the back — but not before accidentally showing the answer to the entire crowd first. Realizing his mistake, Top tried to salvage the moment. "I messed that up. If you didn't see it… IT'S A GIRL. Congratulations, Kelsey and Dalton, you're having a baby girl!" he announced, doing his best to create suspense after everyone had already seen the reveal. The crowd cheered on anyway, and after, Top signed the paper as a keepsake before returning to the microphone with an apology. "I botched it a little bit," he admitted to the audience, explaining that it was his first time attempting a gender reveal during one of his shows. Despite the less-than-smooth execution, both the crowd and Top were thrilled for the happy couple. The whole experience was so chaotic that it might just inspire the couple to keep things a bit more low-key for baby number two. The impromptu gender reveal has become one of the most talked-about moments from Top's busy touring schedule. He's currently crisscrossing the country on his Cold Beer & Country Music headlining tour, and recently announced additional venues he'll be hitting throughout the fall. He recently dropped "South Of Sanity," the second track from his highly anticipated sophomore album, Ain't In It For My Health, which hits shelves August 29.

Johnny Manziel says Travis Kelce 'special person' for having Taylor Swift on podcast: 'Guy is true one of one'
Johnny Manziel, the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner from Texas A&M and former NFL quarterback, knows all about how much the sports media space has evolved given his work in college football and with his "Glory Daze" podcast. It's why he commends Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce for his work on the "New Heights" podcast with his older brother, ex-Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, especially after having his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, come on as a special guest. The latest episode of "New Heights" exploded with Swift making her first-ever appearance on a podcast, where she not only got into her Chiefs fandom, but also unveiled her newest album. There are some detractors, though, who chide the Chiefs tight end for his activity off the field. The word "distraction" has come up since his relationship with Swift went public. However, Manziel views the situation much differently, because he doesn't feel Kelce's ventures off the field impact him when it comes to his regular day job. "Yeah, listen, the guy is a true one of one," Manziel told Fox News Digital while discussing his partnership with Sling TV ahead of football season. "I think nobody would deny how much he loves the game and puts his heart on the line every single week, week in and week out like he's been doing for years. He's a special person, so nothing that he does, whether he flies to New York for dinner with his girl during the season or whatever it is. Listen, there's certain people who move a little bit differently. He is one of them. "But I know for certain, and everybody that's a Chiefs fan knows, when Sunday, Thursday or Monday rolls around, there is for sure one or two people on that team who will be ready, juiced and amped to win a football game [and he's one of them]. Everything else is just, 'Hey, we gotta make a living. We gotta make a bag. We gotta create something for whenever we're done playing.' I think he's done an excellent job of it." Now, Kelce isn't the only current player who has their own podcast. Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons has his own each week during the season, and much like the Kelce brothers, he gives candid assessments of his own team and the rest of the league. Whether it's current or former players, Manziel explained how much he enjoys listening to those who are really going through the game of football instead of those on the outside looking in. "I think what the media world is turning into now where guys are getting off the field and turning it into what we've seen with 'New Heights,' or '4th & 1 [With Cam Newton],' or the list can kinda go on with guys doing great things in the media," he said. "I think it gives a great, 'For the boys,' atmosphere and environment for those who have spent a lot of time in the game, who know the game. "There's a lot of people out there in the world who think they really, really know football and the NFL and how it is – this player is good and that. You know who really knows? Guys who have been in the league for 13, 14 years. Guys who have really done it week in and week out who know everything. I enjoy listening to people who are really the experts." While the game is discussed, Manziel makes a good point about the "for the boys" atmosphere, where things can be funny, personal and so much more than just the game. That's exactly what happened with "New Heights" and Swift – the world got a peak behind the curtain of one of the most popular couples in the world. However, come gameday, Manziel knows Kelce will always be locked in, no matter the noise and hype off the gridiron. A DIFFERENT WAY TO WATCH FOOTBALL Manziel partnered with Sling TV, a subsidiary of DISH Network Corporation, to promote a different way of watching football this season – one that truly takes the consumer into consideration. Sling TV is offering three new streaming subscription packages: Day Pass for instant 24-hour access, Weekend Pass, which grants Friday to Sunday access, and Week Pass for a full seven-days worth of access. When it comes to football, especially at the college level, not all fans want to pay a premium for games they won't watch. Manziel loves that he can pick and choose the right streaming subscription with Sling TV to satisfy his watching needs. "I get these notifications on my phone that say, 'You get charged X amount for this or that.' I'm like, 'Man, I'm just trying to watch ball.' To have something start at $4.99, and you pick which one you want – you want a day, a week, a weekend. Being an SEC guy through and through, I think for me it makes easy for me to watch whatever I want whenever I want, and it's really easy. You don't have to sit there with overhead or anything else going on. For me, I don't think it can be any better."

‘Sweetener' is a fun sapphic romp brimming with identity confusion
In 1984, at age 33, I fell in love with a woman for the first time. Her name was Cathy. Her previous girlfriend's name was also Cathy. 'Wasn't that confusing, sharing a name with your girlfriend?' I asked. She shrugged. 'Everything about being a lesbian is confusing at first,' she said. 'You get used to it.' In 'Sweetener,' Marissa Higgins' sexy, poignant second sapphic novel, the reader is served plenty of confusion, lesbian-related and otherwise. For starters, two of the book's three protagonists, who are breaking up as we meet them, are both named Rebecca. With 18,993 girls' names in active use in contemporary America, why would Higgins build this disconcerting element into 'Sweetener's' structure? It proves to be a decision well-made. As the reader turns the pages, learning to individuate the two Rebeccas (whose central struggle is learning to individuate from each other) gives us bonus information about, and empathy for, both of them. 'My wife and I have the same first name, though our friends never used mine; I've always been Rebecca's wife,' Rebecca No. 1 says of Rebecca No. 2 — No. 2 being the more powerful one, since she's the one initiating the breakup. 'Our last names, too, are still the same, as I took hers at our court wedding,' No. 1 tells us. 'With the same name, it's easy to become one person instead of two.' Applying for a part-time cashier job near her dismal D.C. apartment, Rebecca No. 1 mulls, 'Inside the market, I remind myself I am a person. I have an age, a birthday, an address.' When the store manager asks about Rebecca's hobbies, she thinks, 'Making rent? Getting myself off? Finding a woman with more money than either of us to take me to the dentist?' The engaging, original plot of 'Sweetener' is complex, too. Unbeknownst to Rebecca No. 1, she and No. 2 (PhD student, less depressed, more conniving, heavy drinker) are both dating Charlotte. Obsessed with having a baby, Charlotte wears a fake pregnancy belly, a fact known only to Rebecca No. 2, because Charlotte keeps her shirt on while having sex with Rebecca No. 1. (Having Charlotte thinking, 'Please don't notice please don't notice please don't notice' to cover Rebecca No. 1's failure to notice that her sexual partner is wearing a huge baby-shaped silicone belt seems a bit of an, um, stretch.) Both Rebeccas have great sex with Charlotte. Neither Rebecca wants to stop. Rebecca No. 2 also wants a baby and doesn't want to stop drinking, which means not bearing but instead fostering a child, which means enlisting Rebecca No. 1 in the effort, since the two are still legally married, and fostering as a single divorcee requires a minimum one-year legal separation. Neither Rebecca is certain whether pretending to be married will result in their actual reconciliation. Only Rebecca No. 1 is certain that she wants that. 'I know it's not fair of me to ask anything of you,' Rebecca No. 2 admits in a phone call to her soon-to-be ex-wife, 'but I'm serious about wanting to have a family.' Desperate as she is for a reconciliation, Rebecca No. 1 mulls, 'When she says she wants me to think about how important a family is to her, and what this could mean for her, I understand she is not using the word we… I tell her I miss her and she says she misses me, too. Then she says, 'So you'll come by when the social worker is here?'' In 1984, when I dated Cathy No. 2, like the Rebeccas, most of the lesbians I knew were young, poverty-stricken and uncomfortably enmeshed with their lovers, and they considered 'lesbian' to be their primary identity. Unlike the Rebeccas, we were also terrified by the consequences of being out during what were extremely dangerous times. During the 1980s and 1990s, Cathy and I were chased down city streets by men shouting slurs at us. We were refused rooms in hotels. Cathy would have been fired from her childcare job if she'd come out at work. My custody of my children was threatened. I was banished from my father's home. 'My wife and I go to our first class on child development together,' Rebecca No. 1 tells us. 'Next to my wife, I feel cool.' A few pages later, she observes: 'The social worker tells me I'm lucky to have a partner who values non-threatening communication.' During their home visit with a second D.C. social worker, the Rebeccas lie about a lot of things — chiefly, their marital and financial instability. But they don't lie about what Cathy and I would have had to hide if we'd tried to adopt a child in the 1980s. Living in a big, liberal city, the Rebeccas don't feel the need (still required for safety in 'red' locales) to call each other roommates or friends. They call each other wives, because in 2025 same-sex marriage and parenting are givens, not distant fantasies. Ten years after it became 'cool' (and legal, and publicly acknowledged) for a woman to have a wife; 40 years after I and many, many others paid a terrible price for coming out in our families, workplaces and neighborhoods, lesbians like Marissa Higgins are creating lesbian characters who live in a sweeter, changed-for-the-better world. The sugar that made life safer for us is the queer activism that begins with telling true tales of queer lives and persists today with renewed need and renewed vigor. 'Sweetener,' the novel, is a fun romp through one version of lesbo-land circa 2025. Higgins' 'Sweetener' celebrates and accelerates the long, rough ride to lasting queer equality. Maran, author of 'The New Old Me' and other books, lives in a Silver Lake bungalow that's even older than she is.
