"I'm like, 'You are 60 pounds off here.'... It wouldn't even bother me if I gained all the weight. And I have the biggest sweet tooth and I love junk food. Being pregnant, I don't like any of it."

High school 'hotness tournament'

May does not only mean the end of a school year for students at a Washington high school. It also means May Madness, a competition that pits female students against each other in a bracket to determine who is the "hottest." The so-called "hotness tournament" has become a tradition at Issaquah High School in Issaquah, Wash., according to Seattle's KING-TV. Over the past five years, boys have been encouraged to vote online for who they think are the best-looking girls in their class. Girls are encouraged to "look their finest" during the voting period. The creators of May Madness -- which is allegedly set up similarly to college basketball's March Madness -- are anonymous, according to The Seattle Times. Last year, the contest's Facebook page had a direct link to voting, but this year it does not. School administrators have been unable to determine who is behind it. via www.huffingtonpost.com

"I am open to playing live shows," Maines said. "I remember Glenn Frey told me once that he wished the Eagles had never officially broken up. He looks back at that as kind of a silly thing to do… I don’t see any purpose in that. To me, we’re the Dixie Chicks. We’ll always be the Dixie Chicks." As for the old Natalie Maines divorce rumors from her actor husband Adrian Pasdar, those were false as well.
