The List,
“Country star Megan Moroney just proved she’s not above getting her hands dirty—or glittery. After a show in Athens, Georgia, she helped staff clean up by sweeping up confetti with a dustpan like a sparkly Cinderella. Fans called her a ‘helpful queen,’ and honestly, same—because if I drop glitter at home, it stays there forever. Respect to a woman who can sing a ballad and operate a Swiffer.”

“Alec Baldwin’s new reality show, The Baldwins, is bombing harder than a first date with no Wi-Fi. Only 420,000 people tuned in—which, by TV standards, is like your mom and a couple raccoons. Apparently, Alec even blamed his wife Hilaria for not bringing enough sparkle. Yikes. When your marriage and your ratings are both circling the drain… maybe don’t record it?”

“Over 47,000 people want to rename Nashville’s airport after Dolly Parton. Yes, Dolly Parton International Airport—because nothing says ‘safe landing’ like 9-inch acrylics and rhinestones. Honestly, I’d absolutely fly ‘Departin’ from Parton’ Airlines. The flight attendants would sing you lullabies, and your baggage would come out fully bedazzled.”

“If you’re one of those people quietly rooting for Harry and Meghan to split—first, you’re messy. Second, here’s your gossip: Harry reportedly hates that Meghan’s showing off their kids on social media to boost her brand. He wants privacy. She wants Malibu beach days and matching mommy-kid influencer looks. So basically—it’s ‘The Crown: California Edition.’ Stay tuned or just follow her on Instagram.”

Welcome to The List,
Shaboozey tells People magazine that his Nigerian parents shaped his hustle. His dad worked menial jobs in the U.S. after hardships in Africa, and his mom—who wasn't a fan of his music dream—now joins him onstage. From skeptical to stage mom? That’s a full-circle flex.

Rachel Brosnahan found out she was playing Lois Lane… in a public bathroom. She got a call from “Maybe James Gunn”—and prayed a toilet didn’t flush during the big moment. Honestly? That’s the most relatable superhero origin story I’ve ever heard.
-----
Allegedly, Kim Kardashian felt overshadowed by Sydney Sweeney at Jeff Bezos’ wedding—like invisible-level ignored. She had her eyes on Tom Brady, but he only had eyes for Sydney. Now Kim’s spiraling, thinking four kids and a 40-something birthday might be killing her ‘It Girl’ vibe. Spoiler: it’s not the kids, Kim.
-----
Dolly Parton is out here defying the laws of music and gravity—she just dropped a duet with Motley Crue. Yeah, THAT Motley Crue. They re-did “Home Sweet Home” for its 40th anniversary, and boom—it’s now #1 on the Classic Rock chart. Dolly said country roads? Nah, we’re taking the rock highway now!
