Terry & Rachel Bradshaw's Sweet Grand Ole Opry Performance

Hats off to The Grand Ole Opry House.

As the iconic Nashville venue marked a century of shaping the careers of country superstars, the biggest names in the genre didn’t hesitate to giddy on up to the red carpet for the Opry 100: A Live Celebration special airing on NBC and Peacock March 19.

Mark Estes, for instance, arrived at the event—hosted by Blake Shelton—in a classic country look, accessorizing his jeans and blazer look with a black cowboy hat. And the TikToker didn't show out alone for the event, as he walked the carpet with his Montana Boyz member Kaleb Campbell Winterburn by his side.

Trisha Yearwood—another performer for the evening—was another star who stunned on the carpet, wearing a floor-length black wrap dress. To top off her ensemble, the "She's in Love With the Boy" singer rocked matching open-toed heels and wore her hair in long, loose waves.

As for host Blake, who turned the event into a date night with wife Gwen Stefani, getting inducted into the Opry was “a highlight of my life and career.”

So, it’s an honor to be taking on that special role during the ceremony. “15 years later I still get that same feeling of reverence and excitement every time I walk out on that stage,” he said in a statement released in January. “The Grand Ole Opry has been connecting the country music family for 100 years, and I’m so proud to be part of this historic celebration.”

As for who’s performing in celebration of the major milestone?

The night is set to feature numerous performances from some of country music’s most acclaimed artists, including Luke Combs, Reba McEntire, Garth Brooks and more.

For the “Fast Car” singer, his love of country genre goes way back, as he credits the people who raised him for igniting his passion.

“I loved listening to it with my parents, with my mother particularly when I was little,” Luke told AXS TV during an August 2023 interview. “We lived in Charlotte, North Carolina. I lived there until I was eight and then me and my parents moved to Asheville, North Carolina. In those first eight years of my life my mom pretty much exclusively listened to country music. Vince Gill was my first concert, Brooks & Dunn, Garth Brooks, Clint Black. I mean that was all that was on.”
