Welcome to The List,
In a desperate bid to stay relevant, Blake Lively is reportedly terrified she’s about to become the next track on Taylor Swift’s breakup album and not the love song kind. Sources say their friendship fizzled after Blake’s legal mess with Justin Baldoni… and now Taylor’s ghosting her! Blake’s smart enough to know when Swift goes silent, a savage rhyme is on the way.

MTV just remembered country music exists! They've slapped a shiny new “Country Category” on the VMAs, and the nominees are stacked: Chris Stapleton, Cody Johnson, Carrie Underwood, Jelly Roll, Lainey Wilson, Megan Moroney, and Morgan Wallen. Took ‘em long enough… but hey, we’ll take the boots on the moonwalk!

Post Malone’s stalker is back for the fifth time. Cherish Gomer, clearly not cherishing boundaries, was arrested after literally jumping in front of Posty’s car like it was the final scene of a rom-com. His driver had to swerve just to avoid turning her into roadkill. Someone get this girl a restraining order and a therapist!

In the most Ozzy Osbourne thing ever… the flowers fans are leaving at his memorial in Birmingham? Yeah, those are gonna be mulched and scattered by his future gravesite. It’s giving “ashes to ashes, petals to compost.” Honestly, it’s poetic... and so metal.
