Answer: Barbie doll, sweet champagne

In 1959, Ruth Handler, co-founder of Mattel, introduced to the world the first Barbie Doll (which was named for her daughter Barbara) at the American Toy Fair in February in New York. The first doll sold for $3. The Barbie Doll is considered the highest collectible doll in the world. Barbie has been everything from a medical doctor to a Harley-Davidson girl...you name it and Barbie has done it! The making of Champagne dates back to Roman times. During the Middle ages, the champagne wine was considered drinkable at best. The makers of champagne wine soon realised that storing it in casks was not a good idea as the wine did not mature well...this is how bottling the wines came to be. It is believed that the "Tirage" or bottling took place before the first fermentation. Many thanks are given to the British by natives of the Champagne region, as they enjoyed the sparkling wines, and it was the Brits that wanted the wines to sparkle as they captured the light...thank goodness they insisted on that because the champagne that did not sparkle soon exploded its bottles almost immediately after being stored. However, for reasons which were never recorded, the sparkling champagne wines did not explode. In 1994, the Champagne merchants estimated that they made a profit of 14.4 thousand million Francs, which is a seventy percent sales of Champagne. In 1995, it was recorded that two hundred fifty million bottles of Champagne were sold worldwide. Champagne wines come in sweet, pink, and sparkling accents.

Answer: Beer, tavern

Beer making records are dated back six-thousand years ago, when the Sumerians mistakenly made the first beer. It is believed that the first beer makers were woman, as they were the ones that baked the bread and collected the ingredients. In Ancient Egypt, women were considered to be holders of the brewers or breweries as they were later to be called. However, that all changed when beer making found its way into the monasteries. Inside the holy sanctuaries, beer was considered a divine drink and the monks were allowed to drink up to five litres a day! King Gambrinus is considered the patron saint of beer.

Answer: Big&Rich

Big Kenny and John Rich (Big&Rich) stopped in on Bourbon Street Blues and Boogie Bar to have a drink and to hear a good band people had been talking about. They heard Gretchen (who was also the bartender at the time) sing "Lady Marmalade" by Labelle and "I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Loved You)" by Aretha Franklin. They were blown away and John walked up to talk to her. She blew him off at first, but after a month or two she called him back and they worked together to launch her career. Ever since Big&Rich and Gretchen have worked together and are good friends.

Answer: The MuzikMafia

John Rich and Big Kenny were tired of the frustrating standard business and the safe, mainstream choices that controlled most record deals. So they and two other people- Jon Nicholson and Cory Gierman- formed the loose association Muzik Mafia. Mafia stands for Musically Artistic Friends In Alliance. They would get together on a regular basis and bounce songs off each other, write them, sing them, and play them. There they could get honest feedback from their friends. The group got bigger and bigger. When Gretchen Wilson joined, she became the official "Godmother". The Muzik Mafia has helped many people's success. The other three choices are made-up (at least I think they are!).

Answer: "Redneck Woman"

All of these songs are phenomonal, but "Redneck Woman" won the Grammy. "Politically Uncorrect" featured Merle Haggard. Also, the video for "When I Think About Cheatin'" was based on a real event when John Rich and Gretchen found the doors to the Ryman Auditorium open. They went in and Gretchen sung Patsy Cline's classic, "Leavin' on Your Mind". The security guard waited until she finished the song before she tossed them out. Grace helped Gretchen pick out "I Don't Feel Like Loving You Today". They were riding to the store one day and when Gretchen put in the demo, Grace said "Mommy, I really love that song." Gretchen loved it too, so she recorded it!
