The List for Wednesday, May 28th 2025

Welcome to The List,

So Carrie Underwood and Jelly Roll might be teaming up—and not just for an unexpected duet in your karaoke nightmares. A source says she’s a big fan, loves their voices together, and shocker—fans actually influenced a celebrity decision! It’s being fast-tracked now, which is industry code for “we smelled money.” Can’t wait for the power ballad titled “Barbecue and Eyeliner.”

Megan Moroney told People she’s staying single to focus on her career and “reflect on past relationships.” Translation: She’s sick of dating dudes who think owning a truck and two brain cells makes them husband material. Good for her. Focus, thrive, and maybe write a song called “He Ghosted Me but I Charted Anyway.”

Ohio wants to make Superman their official superhero by 2033. Because when you think of superpowers, you think… Ohio. Yes, his creators were from there, and the new movie filmed in Cincinnati and Cleveland, so now he’s being adopted like a rescue dog in a cape. Next up: Batman becomes the official mascot of New Jersey.

Will Smith is charging fans up to $1,740 for a group photo on his U.K. tour. For that price, I better get a personalized rap and a slap on the back. Or just a slap. It includes a stage tour, too—because nothing says “Fresh Prince” like standing near some lights and pretending it’s worth a month’s rent.

The List for Tuesday, July 8th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Miranda Lambert and Chris Stapleton are teaming up for a brand-new duet called “A Song to Sing”—and it drops this Friday! They teased it online with a retro heart graphic, but didn’t give much else away. Full-blown duet, not just a feature—because when two icons collide, you don’t do it halfway.

----

Plot twist! Diddy is allegedly planning a women’s shelter for abuse survivors… while women are also lining up to party with him. I guess it’s equal-opportunity chaos now? He’s rebranding hard—with a docuseries, new music, and probably a candle line next. Stay tuned!

----

The new Superman movie is here—and critics say it's about as inspiring as a soggy cape. Big on CGI, low on story. Turns out, flying fast and punching aliens doesn’t fix a weak script. Superhero burnout? Say it ain’t so!

----

Big congrats to Sam Hunt and his wife—they’ve welcomed baby number three! A boy named Weyman Allen Hunt, born back in May. Their other kids are Lucy Louise and Lowry Lee. At this point, Sam’s basically touring with his own country band… of toddlers.

The List for Monday, July 7th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Sad news over the Fourth... Michael Madsen—yeah, the guy who made ear-cutting in Reservoir Dogs look like an art form—died Thursday from cardiac arrest at 67. And we also lost Julian McMahon—Nip/Tuck, Charmed, and Fantastic Four’s original Dr. Doom—gone at just 56 after a battle with cancer.

-----

Miranda Lambert isn’t just all about fringe and fire—it’s heart too. She and her MuttNation Foundation are teaming up with Kerrville Pets Alive to help both people and their fur-babies affected by the devastating Texas flash floods. Big country heart, big country help.

-----

Lainey Wilson says carving out time for her fiancé, Duck Hodges, is a must—even with a tour bus schedule! For their wedding? No country megastars—she wants jazz bands! And who’s gonna cry first? Lainey’s betting on Duck. She says, “He’ll be a mess.” Aww...Quackin' up already.

-----

Tom Cruise’s next movie, Deeper, just hit a big fat pause button—because it’s allegedly burning through a $275 million budget. Yeah... for a deep-sea space drama. Warner Bros. is sweating, Cruise is studio-shopping, and somewhere, Ana de Armas is wondering if she packed her wetsuit and her spacesuit.
