The List for Thursday, April 17th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Things just keep going so well for Meghan Markle, She tried to book Dolly Parton for her Netflix show With Love, Meghan... and Dolly’s team basically said, “Bless your heart, but no thanks.” Apparently, they didn’t want to “risk Dolly’s reputation” by being associated with Meghan. Basically: we're not trading rhinestones for royal drama, sweetie.

Lainey Wilson owns well over a thousand pairs of bell-bottoms. A new pair for every show—for the past 15 years. Meanwhile, Luke Combs is out here reppin' the Columbia fishing shirt like it’s couture. One of them’s living in a fashion show, the other’s living in a Bass Pro Shop catalog. It’s all about balance…

-----

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill’s youngest daughter Audrey is stepping into the music biz, and the parents are all in their feelings. Word is, she looks and sounds exactly like Faith. So basically, they’ve created a clone with vocal cords—and now they’re just trying not to cry through every rehearsal. Adorable and mildly terrifying.

-----

Mike Flanagan is remaking Carrie AGAIN—this time as an 8-part Prime Video series. Yes, again. Carrie’s had more reboots than Batman at this point. Summer H. Howell is our new blood-soaked prom queen, and production starts this summer. No release date yet, but don't worry... she’ll be back. She always comes back.

Welcome to The List,

Carrie Underwood might not be feelin’ Idol anymore. Word is she’s over the drama, underwhelmed by the paycheck, and looking at the exit like it’s a bedazzled escape hatch. Apparently, she wants more cash—because surviving that many bad auditions should come with hazard pay, honestly.

-----

Fresh outta prison and already asking for Kardashian money? Todd and Julie Chrisley reportedly want a seven-figure deal for a new show. TV execs are like, “Cute. But your last gig ended with jumpsuits and court dates.” Might wanna ease into the comeback with a YouTube channel.

-----

Country star Megan Moroney just dropped the simplest breakup cure: BLOCK. 'Em. Hard stop. She says it's not petty, it’s survival. And let’s be real, if the only thing stopping you from texting your ex is not seeing their name... BLOCK TWICE. Bonus points if you delete their mama too.

-----

Prince Harry lost his court battle for taxpayer-funded bodyguards, and now Meghan Markle is reportedly fuming. Not just because of the $2 million legal bill—but because they’ve gotta dig into investments now?! Oh, the horror. Can someone Venmo the royals? Times are tough in Montecito.
