KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK Claire 2/24/2026

Welcome to The List,
Remember “The Goonies”? Well, a British newspaper alleges that a sequel to “The Goonies” is in the works. The original cast will supposedly return, and they’ll film it next year and release it sometime in 2026 or 2027.

The biggest snubs from the CMA Award nominations are: Beyoncé getting shut out in every category she was qualified for . . . and Miranda Lambert, who was not nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year. This broke a 17-year consecutive streak.

Kate Middleton posted an update on her cancer battle, saying she’s done with chemo and focused on, quote, “doing what I can to stay cancer free.” She also hopes to resume public appearances in the coming months.

Speaking of Miranda Lambert her new album “Postcards from Texas” will be released THIS Friday. She said, “I have not made a record in Texas since I was 18 . . . So, this is like full circle, coming back home, to the root.”

Welcome to The List,
Luke Combs just welcomed baby number three, and at this point he’s not running a family… he’s running a small football team. His new son is named Chet Wiley Combs, joining big brothers Tex and Beau, which also sounds like a law firm that only handles tractor-related lawsuits. Nicole is now outnumbered four to one, which means Luke finally achieved his lifelong dream… living in a non-stop WWE event with juice boxes.

Matthew McConaughey says AI actors are coming for the Oscars, which means in five years the Best Actor speech will just be a laptop saying “Thank you… processing emotions.” The upside is AI doesn’t age, doesn’t argue, and doesn’t show up late. The downside… your favorite movie star might soon be a Dell Inspiron with better abs than you.
-----
Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are getting sued over their restaurant “1587 Prime” by a sneaker company called “1587 Sneakers,” which proves two things… lawyers are undefeated, and apparently numbers are now copyrighted. Somewhere right now, the number 7 is hiring security and filing paperwork just to stay out of trouble.
-----
Keith Urban and Jennifer Lopez are reportedly texting late at night, which means somewhere Nicole Kidman is casually holding Keith’s phone like, “Oh look… Jennifer sent another smiley face.” Sources say matchmakers want them together, and honestly, if this happens, country and pop fans will unite faster than free beer at a wedding.
