Welcome to The List,
Kim Kardashian just testified against the “grandpa robbers” who tied her up and stole her jewelry in Paris back in 2016. And how did she show up to court? In $7 million worth of diamonds—including a 52-carat necklace. That’s carat, not karat. She said when they broke in at 3am, she was in a bathrobe and thought she was going to die. So naturally, she dressed like a human vault to face them. Classic Kim.

Remember when Morgan Wallen peaced out of SNL faster than a dad at a toddler’s dance recital? He finally explained why: “I was ready to go home. I’d been there all week.” That’s it. No drama. No tantrum. Just a man who’d had enough New York. He even posted “Get me to God’s country” from the tarmac. Honestly? Mood.

George Strait turns 73 this Sunday and just hinted at when he’ll retire. He said he’s got about “five good years” left on stage. Which means the King of Country might still be touring at 78. The man’s been performing for over 50 years—since his Army days. And he’s still selling out shows. Last summer? Over 110,000 people packed into Texas A&M to see him. Legend status confirmed.

A new book says George Clooney called for Biden to drop out right after a fundraiser where… Biden didn’t recognize him. Clooney. The guy from Ocean’s Eleven. The one he’s known for years. The book says Clooney was “shaken to his core.” I mean, if George Clooney walked up to me and I said “Do I know you?”—I’d assume I’d been hit in the head with a frying pan.

Welcome to The List,
More tributes are rolling in for Ozzy Osbourne... from Kermit the Frog, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Wolfgang Van Halen, Major League Baseball, and—because why not—the New England Patriots. Ozzy once said his family could play anything at his funeral... even Justin Bieber or Susan Boyle. Rock on, Prince of Darkness.

Jake Owen says a random guy at Starbucks yelled at him for driving a Cybertruck. Called him a traitor! Like Jake just switched sides in a war or something. He’s just trying to get a latte, bro. Apparently, you can’t even be eco-conscious without catching hands now. Humanity's doin’ great.

Eric Church says his days off are all about the outdoors. Fishing, golf, just soaking in nature. He’s got two kids, and his idea of heaven is taking his son fishing. Meanwhile, the rest of us are inside praying for a nap and Wi-Fi. Must be nice, Eric. Must. Be. Nice.

Travis Kelce says dating Taylor Swift is like Pretty Woman... but he’s Julia Roberts. Yep. The tight end in the thigh-high boots. I can’t unsee it, and now, neither can you. Give that man a loofah and a bubble bath montage!
