The List for Tuesday, October 29th 2024

Welcome to The List,

Who hasn’t thought about doing something like this… Robert Englund tells People magazine that he once went to a restaurant dressed as Freddy Kruger.  We went into this Thai restaurant and was sitting there, He said “we were in the back towards the kitchen and a guy came out..saw me…dropped his whole tray of food and he ran back into the kitchen. — you know, Freddy Krueger, 12 or 14 feet away sitting at a booth… I think that guy’s still running.”

The Sphere in Las Vegas is fantastic…you may have seen videos of it online…Vince Gill…He’s not that impressed when playing shows there… He said, “It’s the most people I’ve ever been ignored by.  You’re playing, and they’re looking at all the stuff on the ceiling.  They’re not paying attention to you.”

Jelly Roll has confirmed that he has recorded a new song with Snoop Dogg. It’s going to be on Snoop’s new album, “Missionary.” Geo TV quotes him as saying, “I won’t say anything about the record because he didn’t, but man, it’s special. It is really good. I’m legitimately on the Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre album. It’s crazy. It’s unreal. It was the most awesome session I ever did.

Gisele Bundchen is pregnant with her third child. The 44-year-old supermodel is ‘five or six months’ along.  The father? Is her Jiu-Jitsu coach that she said she wasn’t dating…Giselle has a 14-year-old son named Benjamin and an 11 year old daughter named Vivian.

The List for Wednesday, April 1st 2026

Welcome to The List,

Meghan Markle allegedly thought she could jump the royal line. A new book claims she believed she should be queen next. Said she was smarter, better, and worked harder than Kate. That’s not confidence, that’s skipping the entire family tree.

-----

Two Blackhawk helicopters hovering over Kid Rock’s house raised eyebrows fast. Army pilots got suspended while the investigation played out. Then the Defense Secretary stepped in and shut it down. Suspensions lifted, no punishment, case closed just like that.

-----

Keith Urban might be ready to say a little more. A report claims he felt iced out of Nicole Kidman’s interview. She talked family and life but didn’t mention him once. Now there’s talk he could finally tell his side. Nothing says romance like a possible press tour response.

-----

And if you saw Jason Aldean storm off Colbert… relax. That viral story is completely made up from top to bottom. Wrong show name, bad details, zero credible sources behind it. The internet really said “let’s just create chaos today.” Moral of the story, not everything trending is actually true…I know…surprise right??
