Next week, Wednesday, April 8 (8:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed), Florida Georgia Line will mentor and perform on the “Billboard Hits”-themed show. In addition, Jason Derulo will also be a mentor, and will perform his new single, “Want to Want Me.” There also will be a special performance of “Trouble,” with Iggy Azalea, featuring Jennifer Hudson.

Looking forward to the advice FGL pass on regarding how to sing about trucks, beer and chicks in tight shorts. Keep Jason Derulo away from the girls. JUST SAYIN’. And I’ve already got at least two versions of “Trouble” posted on the blog. Why not one more?
