Kaitlin Butts fakes wardrobe malfunction to help with best friend's proposal
It turns out some wardrobe malfunctions come with a romantic ending. On July 20, country music singer Kaitlin Butts shared a video on TikTok of her inviting her longtime best friend and tour manager, Sophia Wells, onto the stage to help her fix a wardrobe malfunction. But the wardrobe malfunction was staged — and what happened next was worth the deception. As Wells was tying the back of Butts' corset, the singer reminisced on their close friendship. 'I'm kind of glad this is happening,' Butts said into the mic. 'We actually met here in Oklahoma City about 13 years ago. This is my college roommate from Oklahoma City, we went to college here.' The video was taken during her July 12 show at The Zoo Amphitheatre in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, per Concert Archives. 'Two years ago today, or this month I guess, this beautiful woman,' she said of Wells, who attempted to walk away before Butts brought her back on stage. 'This is a special moment for me,' she added. Butts went on to recall how Wells sent her a direct message two years ago telling her that her guitar player was 'really cute.' Wells then asked if Butts needed a background singer — which led to her becoming Butts' tour manager. 'I'm just honored to have her,' Butts continued into the mic. 'And I think she should turn around right now, too.' When Wells turned around, her now-fiancé, Adam Duran, was down on one knee with a ring in his hand. 'And that's the story of how my college roommate became my tour manager,' Butts wrote in a text overlay. 'And how my tour manager and my guitar player found love.' 'And it all started with a DM,' she added. Fans took to the comment section to share their excitement. 'And once again, I'm crying for strangers on the internet,' one fan wrote. 'The opposite of Coldplay Jumbotron vibes. Congrats to the happy couple!' another fan commented. 'She's so good at her job that now she's gonna be saving you on one less room during tours! congrats to the happy couple!!' a third fan joked. But while Wells and Duran were busy securing their love, Butts decided to keep her own love (and old love) just as close. On July 14, Butts took to Instagram to reveal that one of her ex-boyfriends was in the band that opened for her and another one of her exes was the program director for the venue she performed at. According to The Oklahoman, Butts is married to Cleto Cordero, the lead singer and guitarist of Flatland Cavalry — the band that she performed with on July 12. 'All my exes live in Oklahoma lol (no bad blood tho with these ones, thank gawd),' she wrote in the caption. Butts is a Tulsa native now based in Nashville, per the Grand Ole Opry. Her latest album 'Roadrunner' was released in June 2024. Butts will be performing shows across the country through Jan. 30 with her next show scheduled for Aug. 2 at the Surly Brewing Co. in Minneapolis, Minnesota, according to her website.

Jordon Butts taken to hospital after suffering collapsed lung vs Western Bulldogs, Adelaide Crows
Don't miss out on the headlines from AFL. Followed categories will be added to My News. Adelaide key defender Jordon Butts has suffered a collapsed lung during his side's 11-point victory over the Western Bulldogs on Saturday afternoon. The 25-year-old copped a knock to his sternum at some point during the second quarter, however Crows head coach Matthew Nicks post-game was still none the wiser as to what incident caused the injury. Butts was taken down to the Marvel Stadium changerooms for a number of tests, and was having trouble breathing.

'Jordon underwent a thorough examination at the ground and given his breathing was inhibited, he was sent to hospital for further assessment which revealed a punctured lung. He won't travel home with the team and instead he will remain in Melbourne overnight,' Burgess said. Butts with the medical staff being taken to hospital for further checks. Credit: Fox Footy. Subsequently, Butts will not return to Adelaide with teammates — instead staying interstate until he is cleared to travel. 'He'll spend the night here, and with the right people around him to make sure that he gets what he needs from this point on. But we won't know any more information until a specialist comes in and checks him up further,' Nicks told journalists in his post-game press conference. Fox Footy vision at half time showed Butts walking gingerly in the Adelaide changeroom on his way to hospital, evidently in pain. Young forward Brayden Cook also suffered a concussion after a head clash in his first game of AFL for the 2025 season, and has entered the league's concussion protocols. Despite losing two players, the Crows secured the victory in what was the latest failing for the Western Bulldogs to stamp their premiership credentials against a top-eight side. Another loss against a top eight side for the Dogs.

All up they had a 1-6 record entering Saturday against teams currently in the finals positions, with a lone victory over GWS to go with defeats to the likes of the Lions, Pies, Suns, Cats and Hawks. Rather than shy away from the concerning record, the team's cheer squad dived straight off the deep end with its pre-match banner. 'They say we're flat track bullies, we think that's funny,' it said. 'Hey Crows, think you're tough? Give us your lunch money.' The Bulldogs' unfortunate banner before the game. Photo: Fox Sports If anyone was doing some bullying at Marvel Stadium, however, it was Matthew Nicks' men, who are emerging as flag fancies themselves after their sixth win from their past seven games. For the record, that stretch includes wins over Hawthorn and the reigning premier Brisbane. The teams traded goals in the first term before the Crows took a seven-point lead into quarter-time, gradually building that to a match-winning 27-point edge at the last change. The Dogs kicked five goals to two in the final term, but it was too little to late for Luke Beveridge's side. While the Dogs' final aspirations will get another stern test against Brisbane next week, the Crows are scheduled for another high-stakes clash, hosting the Gold Coast Suns at Adelaide Oval in the final match of the round.

Adelaide Crows defender Jordon Butts taken to hospital for health checks after heavy hit
Jordon Butts has been taken to hospital after the Adelaide Crows defender reportedly suffered breathing troubles following a hit against the Bulldogs on Saturday. The 25-year-old was substituted out with what the club said was a chest injury. It soon emerged Butts required further assessment, albeit precautionary after he walked from the field and was seen in good spirits in the rooms. It was unclear when Butts was hurt, with Fox Sports only uncovering the defender receiving an open-hand shove high on the chest from Bulldogs star Sam Darcy. Earlier there was some confusion when a person from the crowd appeared to be called on to help out the Crows doctor. But commentators suggested they were linked to the AFL as part of the fallout to Christian Petracca's distressing internal injuries suffered in the King's Birthday clash last year. Meanwhile, the Crows suffered more injury drama when James Peatling needed to be helped from the ground following a loose sling tackle. He had his shoulder strapped and returned to the field for the rest of the third quarter. Brayden Cook was then taken off, having been left shaken by a hip-and-shoulder from Dogs big man Rory Lobb. His absence left Adelaide a man down on the bench but 100-game milestone man Izak Rankine's late goal pushed the Crows' lead out to 27 points at the final break. It was a day for the big men under the Marvel Stadium roof with Adelaide star Riley Thilthorpe and Bulldogs counterpart Aaron Naughton kicking five goals apiece through the first three terms. Crows tall Darcy Fogarty also had three goals of his own.

Tom Lynch reported for wild swing on Adelaide's Jordon Butts
Richmond's Tom Lynch has been reported for striking Adelaide's Jordon Butts after losing his cool and hitting him in the back of his head. The ugly incident occurred when Lynch's marking attempt was spoiled in front of the Members' Reserve at the MCG as three Crows surrounded him. He threw the type of wild strike rarely seen nowadays and struck Butts in the back of the head, with the Crows defender falling to the ground. Butts picked himself up and kept playing and was not hurt. Lynch continued to remonstrate with Crows players, who rushed over as the umpire tried to quell emotions by reporting the premiership Tiger. He fought with Mark Keane and Josh Worrall as his emotions seemed to overwhelm him.
