The List for Thursday, June 26th 2025

Welcome to The List,

So Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski told GQ he wants to do a crossover between “Days of Thunder” and that new F1 movie with Brad Pitt. Because apparently NASCAR and Formula 1 need a cinematic multiverse now? Oh—and he teased Top Gun 3 where Maverick faces a “crisis bigger than himself.” Probably high cholesterol!

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have ended their engagement after nearly ten years. A source says it’s “amicable” and “not contentious.” Yeah, well, if your engagement lasts longer than some marriages… were you planning a wedding, or just hoping the other person would blink first?

—–

Travis Kelce hosted a surprise nightclub concert in Nashville Tuesday, and who jumps on stage? Taylor Swift and Kane Brown—singing Shake It Off. Travis wore camo, gold chains, and a cowboy hat like a fashion fever dream. Raise your hand if you’re one more duet away from needing a break.

Zach Bryan was in a Dublin bar when he heard a staffer say he’s working late nights to pay for college. So Zach left him a $7,000 tip. Which is incredible, inspiring, and a reminder that I too am available for eavesdropping—especially if you’re rich and generous.

The List for Thursday, September 4th 2025

Welcome to The List,

This fall, you can literally get lost in Lainey Wilson’s world and I don’t mean her songs. A company called Maize is cutting her face into over 30 cornfields around the country. Yep, a Lainey Wilson corn maze. They’ve done it before for Reba McEntire and Luke Bryan, so it’s kind of a country music tradition now. Honestly, nothing says fall like pumpkin spice lattes, hayrides, and wandering through a corn maze shaped like Lainey’s big ol’ hat.  The closest one to us…is at the All-Seasons Orchard in Woodstock, IL

Jelly Roll just lived out every wrestling fan’s dream in Paris and no, it wasn’t a croissant-eating contest. He met John Cena. Jelly lost it, called him “The GOAT,” and you could practically hear his inner teenager screaming. He’s over there touring Europe with Post Malone, and the two of them even hit up a WWE event. Which, is probably the only time Jelly Roll and Post haven’t been the most inked guys in the room.

-----

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are apparently trying to figure out if their wedding should be backyard barbecue or Hollywood royal gala. A source says Taylor wants it about love, not optics, but also knows whatever she does will be historic. Travis? He’s just happy to rent the horses if she wants a carriage. Basically, Taylor holds the pen, Travis nods yes, and we all wait to see if this ends in brisket and Bud Light or tiaras and televised vows.

-----

“Dancing with the Stars” is back for Season 34, and the celebrity lineup feels like it was picked out of a hat at a family reunion. You’ve got Corey Feldman, Hilaria Baldwin, Dylan Efron yes, Zac’s little brother and Andy Richter. It premieres September 16th on ABC and Disney+. The only thing harder than some of those dance routines will be figuring out who half of these people are.
