Welcome to The List,
Dolly Parton’s sister hopped online asking for prayers, saying Dolly “hasn’t been feeling her best.” The 79-year-old legend just postponed her Vegas tour thanks to a kidney stone that decided to throw a party and turn into an infection. But don’t worry, Dolly’s still hustling. She’s got a new book dropping November 11 and a Broadway musical in 2026. So yeah, she might be down, but this queen doesn’t stay there long. Send those prayers she’s too sparkly to stop now.

“Fast & Furious 11” might be hitting the brakes before it even starts. Vin Diesel’s gotta shave $50 million off the $250 million budget or the whole thing might get scrapped. Universal’s talking fewer cast members and no fancy overseas shoots which, honestly, might mean less family time. The franchise has been sputtering lately anyway. Like really, who out here asked for ANOTHER Fast & Furious movie? Even my car’s tired of hearing about it.

So apparently Taylor Swift has no plans to do the Super Bowl Halftime Show anytime soon because she’s “too focused” on Travis Kelce and his stellar on-field performance. Yeah. “Locked in” on the guy who’s been dropping passes like mixtapes. Tay Tay, but you could headline the Super Bowl and still have time to babysit the Chiefs’ offense.

Zach Bryan’s stirring things up again because of course he is. He dropped a teaser of a new song on Instagram called “the fading of the red, white and blue,” and it mentions ICE raids. Naturally, everyone freaked out, so he jumped back online to say, “chill out, the full song hits both sides.” Basically, he’s just a 29-year-old guy confused like the rest of us… only with a guitar and millions of followers watching him do it.

Welcome to The List,
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are allegedly hitting a rough patch not over romance, but over the prenup. An insider claims the financial talks are “cold-hearted,” mostly because their bank accounts look like they’re from two different planets. Travis wants to play another season or two and eventually jump into broadcasting, and apparently Taylor’s not thrilled with that plan. The source says there is supposed to be a wedding this offseason… but right now the negotiations look less like love and more like Shark Tank.

Willie Nelson is fed up with the internet declaring him dead every other week and he finally said something. He posted a photo of himself snoozing on a couch with the caption, “If you believe those A.I. death stories one more time.” For months, fake AI posts claimed he collapsed, was hospitalized, or worse. None of it true. Willie’s still here, still laughing, still alive… and more coherent than some of the people posting about him.

Diddy allegedly thinks someone in his own family sold him out after 50 Cent got access to leaked footage for the Netflix documentary ‘The Reckoning’. The footage shows him distressed on a phone call and Diddy is reportedly determined to figure out who leaked it. He believes only family had access to something that sensitive. And after watching parts of the doc myself? Yeah… “eye-opening” is putting it lightly. This story gets messier by the hour.

Luke Combs told ESPN he wants to headline the Super Bowl halftime show and watch his Carolina Panthers win that same game. Bold. Very bold. He said he grew up in Charlotte when the Panthers became a team, so it’s “in his blood.” Look, we love the confidence but asking for a halftime slot and a Panthers Super Bowl victory is what scientists call “a miracle.”
