Country singer Tim McGraw literally gave one of his concert-goers the boot. McGraw noticed a rowdy man in the crowd struck a woman and proceeded to have the man removed from the audience saying “Get rid of this guy! Security!” and then stooped down and dragged the man onstage, where security guards took him away according to People.com. Check out the video for  yourself.

People love Hannah Montana — she even makes Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich squeal, the AP reports. The good governor took his family to a recent concert featuring real-life Disney idol Miley Cyrus as the fictional pop star Hannah Montana.

“We’re big fans,” Blagojevich told the AP before Saturday’s concert. “I’ve seen every ‘Hannah Montana’ episode.”

I feel less nervous about admitting that I’ve sat through my share of “HM” episodes now that the governor of such a great state has confessed his fandom. My 13-year-old sister digs the series, and I like watching it with her along with “Corey in the House” and other Disney Channel kid fare (except for “The Suite Life of Zack & Cody.” Someone smack those obnoxious twins now please!). The show is a dumb but fun slice of tween comedy, and I get a kick out of watching Billy Ray Cyrus, Miley’s dad, play a goofy southern rocker.

Anyway, the character’s popularity is undeniable. The “HM” concerts are the hottest tour ticket right now. Tickets are going for $600 online. For those who can’t afford that, Disney is releasing a theatrical 3-D concert film called “The Best of Both Worlds” on Feb. 1 featuring Cyrus who will perform as herself and as Hannah. The movie will also feature the Jonas Brothers, who might be on their way to the RGV soon.

Will I be in line to catch the concert film? Only if my kid sister asks me to go … but she’s buying the popcorn. Get more info on the concert film here .
