The List for Monday, May 19th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Tom Bergeron is back, But not on the ballroom floor—he’s hosting Dancing with Sharks for Shark Week. Yes, real sharks. Yes, real dancing. No, this is not a fever dream. Expert divers will waltz underwater with actual sharks thanks to a world-class underwater choreographer. So basically… “So You Think You Can Swim.”

Morgan Wallen Dropped a 37-Song Album on Friday. It’s called I’m the Problem, which honestly sounds like a therapy breakthrough. It’s a double album, it’s country, it’s rap, it’s…controversial. Especially the rap cover of a Keith Whitley song—because nothing says “classic country” like autotune and a trap beat. Swifties are still mad. So, mission accomplished?

—–

Sharpen your stakes and crank up the angst—the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” reboot is happening, and they’ve found a new young slayer to team up with Sarah Michelle Gellar. Yep, Buffy’s back, and apparently she’s mentoring now, which means this girl’s about to get a crash course in slaying and sarcasm. The Hellmouth won’t know what hit it… but probably still ends in a dramatic slow-motion fight scene.

So here’s something straight out of a murder ballad—human remains were found near Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island mansion. Yeah. Real ones. Police say no foul play is suspected, and Swift’s team hasn’t commented. So either it’s a tragic coincidence… or the Cruel Summer just got way darker. Either way, cue the eerie piano music.

The List for Wednesday, July 9th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Lauren posted a video washing her daughter’s bottles, and some random mom on the internet popped in like, “You should be breastfeeding!” Ma’am—Lauren is breastfeeding and using bottles. Ever heard of both?. . “Just because I posted a video of myself washing my daughter's bottles does not give you the right to shame me and harass me and tell me that I should be breastfeeding my child. Mind your business, Nancy. You don't know me and I don't know you and let's keep it that way."

-----

Apparently, Travis Kelce isn’t dropping a knee for Taylor Swift anytime soon. Sources say he’s holding off on proposing until after he retires from football. Because nothing says “romance” like waiting until you’re not covered in turf and Gatorade sweat to buy a ring.

-----

Orlando Bloom is going full rom-com meltdown trying to win back Katy Perry. We’re talking emotional texts, voice notes, handwritten letters—dude’s practically sending carrier pigeons at this point. Sources say he still believes there’s a chance. Sir, this isn’t The Notebook. This is “She’s Just Not That Into You.”

-----

Jelly Roll had fans in full-blown sob mode at a music festival after meeting a young girl holding a sign about her late mom, who wrote his lyrics in her journal. Yeah, go ahead and cry, it’s okay—we all did. Jelly’s got a heart bigger than his tour bus, and this moment hit everyone right in the soul.
