It may seem like success has come quickly for Cole Swindell, whose debut single, “Chillin’ It” is atop Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart for the second straight week, but he’s no overnight success. Swindell came to Nashville more than six years ago, and, like many struggling singer/songwriters, got a job that allowed him to sponge up information about the music industry and make contacts while he worked on his craft: He sold t-shirts out on tour for Luke Bryan, and— just as Garth Brooks did for Martina McBride, who should his merchandise— Bryan took Swindell under his wing, even allowing him to open for him on occasion during Swindell’s 2007-2010 stint on the road. Swindell then signed a publishing deal and started getting his songs cut by the likes of Bryan, Florida Georgia Line and Scotty McCreery. But with the good-timing swagger of “Chillin’ It,” he knew he had something special.

Kelly, 28, had kept his budding romance with Cole, 23, under wraps until the pair announced they’d tied the knot in a quiet ceremony earlier this week.

In addition to some possibly musical genes, it appears that athleticism runs in the Bongiovi family.
Jesse Bongiovi, son of rocker Jon Bon Jovi (real name John Bongiovi Jr.), has made the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team as a walk-on cornerback. And coach Brian Kelly, who took the Irish to the national title game last January, says it has nothing to do with famous father.
"Jesse has earned his spot on the 105," Kelly tells USA Today. "He's a tough kid. The kids really like him. They respect him. They don't look at him as a rockstar's son. They look at him as a kid that loves Notre Dame and wants to play football and help this team. He's had a good summer."
