You don’t mess with a man’s pickup truck, at least you don’t unless that man is Luke Bryan. Bryan’s wife Caroline posted a video to Instagram of Day Four of “Pranksmas,” and she cooked up a whopper. With some help from major league baseball player Adam LaRoche, she stole Bryan’s truck.

Bryan noticed his truck was missing the next day, and asks his wife on camera, “Have y’all reported it stolen?” while she keeps a straight face. LaRoche finally tells him what happened, and then he and Caroline talked Bryan into offering his truck as a giveaway to raise money for LaRoche’s E3 Ranch, which supports combat veterans, fights human trafficking, and offers relief for humanitarian crises worldwide.

When Taylor Swift sells the remaining 170,000 tickets for her “Eras Tour” later this month, the U.S. tour will have brought in an estimated $591 million in sales, per Billboard. This total will make Swift the highest-grossing female touring artist of all time! The singer will end up beating out Madonna whose 2008-2009 “Sticky & Sweet Tour” currently holds the number one slot with a gross of $407 million.

Swift’s U.S. tour will also put her in fourth place on the all-time Billboard Top Tours chart, which is currently led by Ed Sheeran, whose 2017-2019 “Divide” shows grossed a total of $776.2 million.

The remaining 170,000 tickets will be distributed through a digital lottery, with fans being invited by Ticketmaster through email. Sales are limited at two tickets per person. Swift fans who are part of Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan program started receiving emails about a new chance to get these reserved tickets last week.

Keith Urban has made an incredible gift of $250k to four different Nashville charities just before Christmas. Urban donated the money to the Music Health Alliance, the Nashville Food Project, Thistle Farms, and Vanderbilt Breast Cancer Research.

The Music Health Alliance, a nonprofit that provides medical resources to members of the music industry, received $100k, while the other three organizations were given $50k each. In a statement, Urban said, “I have a deep-seated respect and feeling for gratitude for the work that all of these organizations do to make people’s lives more manageable.”

It was a big night on the season finale of “The Voice.” Blake Shelton’s artist, Bryce Leatherwood, was declared the winner of season 22, and Shelton’s wife Gwen Stefani wound up sobbing. Stefani had already announced that she wouldn’t be a part of next season, which Shelton has announced will be his last.

He told ET, “I walked over to Gwen’s chair after the cameras went off and she’s over there literally sobbing. She was like, ‘This is our last time that we’re going to do this together.’” Shelton and Stefani met on the show, and he says he’s still open to being a celebrity mentor for her future team. “Whatever she tells me to do.”

Keith Urban has made a move that’s become popular among huge musical artists in recent years. Urban has sold the master recordings of 10 of his studio albums and a greatest hits compilation to Litmus Music, a new organization backed by Carlyle Global Credit.

Urban has racked up 21 number-one hits on “Billboard’s” Country Airplay chart in his career, and the deal with Litmus doesn’t just include those; the partnership includes future recordings. Urban’s in good company; Kenny Chesney, Blake Shelton, Jason Aldean, and Brad Paisley have all sold at least part of their master recordings.
