Welcome to The List,
Glen Powell’s new smash hit? It’s not a movie—it’s mayo. The Twisters star has gone from chasing tornadoes to chasing taste buds with his new line of organic condiments, Smash Kitchen. That’s right, Glen’s now into buns—but burger buns. Inspired by BBQs at his Texas ranch and a desire to cut the junk from your junk food, Powell’s new lineup includes spicy mayo, hot honey ketchup, and a BBQ sauce..Now available at Walmart, because nothing says “Hollywood hunk turned health nut” like squeezing your own bottles in aisle five.

The MTV VMAs are getting a glow-up—network TV style. For the first time ever, the VMAs will air on CBS, so get ready to watch outrageous outfits, twerk-heavy performances, and someone inevitably saying something that makes the censors sweat… all from the comfort of your grandma’s favorite channel. The show goes down Sept. 7 at UBS Arena in New York, streaming on Paramount+ and still simulcasting on MTV and what feels like every channel except the Weather Channel. No host or performers announced yet, but don’t worry—someone will grind on something they shouldn’t.

This summer, Thomas Rhett will cross a huge milestone off his career bucket list when he plays his first-ever stadium show at Boston’s Fenway Park, on July 19th. “I kinda feel like at some point in your career, you just have to sort of just go for it. I’ve been thinking about doing a baseball stadium since 2019. Finally, I think we just sat down and we were just like, if we’re ever gonna try it, we should try it now. He’s still got a few bucket list things on his career sheet that he wants to do.

Cody Johnson is trying to stay strong… but Texas Roadhouse rolls are his kryptonite. In a Billboard interview, the country star admitted he’s ditching carbs—but those warm, cinnamon butter-slathered rolls at Texas Roadhouse? Yeah, they’re testing his willpower harder than tight jeans at a county fair.“When your daughter wants Roadhouse for her birthday, and those rolls hit the table… I’m drooling,” he said. Same, Cody. Who needs abs when you’ve got buns like those?

Welcome to The List,
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are allegedly tying the knot on Saturday, June 13, 2026 because of course Taylor would lock in a date with a giant “13” stamped on it. Geo TV claims she even paid off another bride to secure that exact wedding date at Ocean House. The couple has been engaged since August and is now ditching the “intimate wedding” idea for options like her Rhode Island mansion or — casual flex — a private Caribbean island.

Bunnie Xo is keeping her chaotic Christmas tradition alive with a brand-new holiday video, this time starring Jelly Roll as the world’s grumpiest reindeer. Now she’s remade “Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer.” But the moment everyone’s losing their minds over? Jelly Roll in full Rudolph gear, angrily driving a sleigh that sends grandma flying. Bunnie even shared behind-the-scenes footage — and Jelly looks like he’s rethinking his marriage in real time.

Ella Langley told CMT she is not dating anyone, despite fans linking her to every man with a beard and a guitar. She said, “Every time I turn around, I’m being linked to some country singer or celebrity. Trust me, if I was dating anyone, I’d be the first to tell everybody.”
