Justin Timberlake just took the steering wheel for a major effort to bring IndyCar auto racing to Nashville.
The Tennessee native has signed on as co-owner and sponsor of the Music City Grand Prix, a race that will cover a two-mile course using the streets of downtown Music City. It’s not Justin’s first venture into racing: He sponsored British driver Dan Wheldon, who won the Indianapolis 500 back in 2011.
The first Music City Grand Prix festival will be held from August 6th through 8th.
Taylor Swift just got slapped with yet another lawsuit — by an amusement park that’s not amused by the title of her latest album.
The CEO of Evermore Park in Pleasant Grove, Utah, filed the suit on Tuesday, claiming the park has “invested $37 million in promoting the Evermore brand.

Tay’s reps dismissed the cease-and-desist request, saying that the park actually tried to capitalize on the name similarity in some social media circles. They also say that Swift’s album cover showed the title in all lowercase letters, making it different than the title-case Evermore Park.
