Hey it's (The Girl Called) Mitch! I recently just moved to the area, originally from south of Detroit, and am loving it! I also LOVE what I do for a living...talk on the radio! I am so blessed to get to do this! I began this crazy career after attending EMU and Specs Howard School of Broadcast Arts. I got my start in Flint-Town Baby, where I was doing overnights. From there, I moved onto Detroit radio. Bounced around from one station to another for years. And now I've bounced to The Moose! It is AMAZING being here!! Thank you for being so welcoming!!
My family though, is my first LOVE! They are all my heroes, and we stick together through anything. My identical twin sister is my best friend in the world! Well, along with my other siblings (two older brothers and an older sister...(yes, there is a slew of us) which are so fantastic too! My Christianity is also what I am completely passionate about as well!
Want to know a secret...Most nights consist of my bed, my dvd player, and ROCKY 4!! Yes, watch it about every night! They are my favorite movies in the world (it's the way he loves Adrian)! The order for me: 4, 1, 2, 3, 5 and Rocky Balboa! I'm also an 80's movie junkie as well! Breakfast Club, Valley Girl, Say Anything, Pretty in Pink, etc. John Hughes is a genius!!!
I look forward to hearing from you! And thanks again for listening!!!
Keep It Country,
MITCH
TAYLOR'S NEW BF!
TAYLOR SWIFT'S KEEPING NEW BF A SECRET! WHY...
Taylor Swift is keeping her relationship with Glee star Cory Monteith a secret from her mum, according to a report.
The country star was first linked to the young actor when they were spotted together at The Grammys.
And apparently the romance has now got serious, though Swift is keen to keep it from her parents.
A source told the National Enquirer: “Taylor is actually pretending not to be interested in Cory so her mother doesn't scare him off!
“Taylor's figured out she better not have any serious mother-daughter conversations about her love life or the relationship will be doomed from the get-go. Taylor really likes Cory, and she's telling friends she sees 'real romantic possibilities' with him.”
Cory will have to keep Taylor’s ex away though. Asked recently by Elle Magazine who she thought was hot Swift said: “Um, well ... Taylor Lautner.”

CARRIES TOUR!
CARRIE UNDERWOOD HIRES LOCALS!
Carrie Underwood's gearing up for her new Play On Tour, and despite the fact that most of it's a big secret, some of Carrie's secrets are starting to come to light.
Like the fact that she has basically an army to haul her tour around.
Al.com is reporting that Carrie recently spent a few days in Mobile, Alabama at the Civic Center to give herself and her crew time to get used to her new stage and everything that goes along with that. Carrie's crew of about 40 people, arrived in Mobile on February 21. Then another 80 or so local folks were hired to help out as stage hands, riggers, etc. Carrie then arrived last week on Wednesday, did her under-wraps rehearsing, and then the whole crew headed out on Saturday, taking approximately 12 semi trucks to haul everything off.
Civic Center manager Jay Hagerman estimates that over two weeks of hiring local crew members, caterers, renting hotel rooms, as well as renting out the Civic Center itself, the whole operation cost half a million dollars, if not more.
"It's more of an impact to the facility than a one-night, sold-out concert," he said.
As for how the hush-hush practice sessions sounded, Hagerman says, "The technology is beyond anything I've ever seen," he said. "The clarity of the sound system is unbelievable."
He added, "This building has never sounded better."

OOPS MAG MESSES WITH TAYLOR SWIFT'S FACE!
Talk about PhotoShop! Why oh why would Russian magazine Oops! completely change Taylor Swift’s face like this? They changed her eyes to make them look a totally different shape, and made her hair blonder. They even changed the shape of her face and chin. And, um, what is going on with her LIPS?
Taylor, we think you are super gorgeous just the way you are! Shame on this magazine for giving you this freaky face!

It's a big year for pop singer Carrie Underwood - fresh from impressing style experts with her look at the Grammy Awards, the one-time 'American Idol' will sing the national anthem at the 2010 Super Bowl. After that? A "big hair and eyeliner" wedding with pro hockey player Mike Fisher, Underwood says.
Life & Style magazine spoke to Fisher about the big day, and shared the wedding updates exclusively with PopEater. Get details on the power couple's nuptials after the jump.
"It's going to be a good size wedding with plenty of good food and an open bar," Fisher told Life & Style. "But nothing too overblown. It's still in the planning stages, so a lot of the details haven't been finalized."
Underwood will be handling the finer points of the reception, Fisher admitted. "As you might expect, Carrie's involved in a lot of the details," he said, joking, "I'll just be showing up."
"I'm Southern," Underwood explained on the red carpet of the People's Choice Awards on Jan. 6. "I like big hair and eyeliner. I want my wedding to be me, so I'll probably be rocking some big hair and eyeliner... I want [the dress] to be pretty traditional. I think I want flowers on it - not real flowers. [The designer will] probably be someone I've worked with before."
"We can't even think about her wedding yet," Carrie's stylist, Trish Townsend, told Life & Style. "We just got through the Grammys. Next is the Super Bowl - she's singing the national anthem ... I'll be helping with the wedding. But ultimately, I'll probably hand things off to the designer she chooses."
That designer could be Roberto de Villacis, who designed one of Carrie's dresses for the 2009 Country Music Awards. "I love designing for Carrie," De Villacis told Life & Style. "Since meeting her, I've been thinking about her wedding dress. Carrie's sweet, feminine, romantic. I'd propose a glamorous Southern-belle gown in French Chantilly lace with a floral pattern. She's petite, so the best silhouette would be a long and lean flute."

Looks like the Hollywood facial hair trend has hit Nashville too! Tim McGraw has already proven that he’s just fine with changing up his famous good looks for a movie role — the country star shaved his goatee to play Sandra Bullock’s husband in The Blind Side and packed on the pounds for his part in Four Christmases — but count his latest transformation as a fashion don’t in the eyes of his daughters. “My daughters don’t like it at all, especially the oldest [12-year-old Gracie],” McGraw told Country Countdown USA’s Lon Helton of the full beard he’s grown for his role co-starring with Gwyneth Paltrow in Love Don’t Let Me Down. Gracie’s assessment? “You look old!’” Tim explained, “And I said, ‘Thanks a lot. Are you embarrassed for me to be around your friends with a beard?’ And she says, ‘There’s a lot of gray in there, Dad!’” Joked McGraw, “I told her I was gonna grow it out and do a big beard combover and try to get it over the top of my head.” In the movie, which began filming in Nashville this week, McGraw plays husband and manager to Paltrow’s country singer, and he says Paltrow impressed him with her pipes. “She’s a really good singer,” he says. “You’re going to be surprised at how well she sings.” –Eileen Finan
