Wednesday 1st April 2026
Welcome to The List,
Diddy’s at it again. Apparently, prison life hasn’t slowed him down he allegedly joined a three-way..call, which is a big no-no behind bars. Word is, he was talking about bringing in cash and “200 singles.” Officials say that’s against the rules and want to cut off his phone and commissary privileges. His publicist says it’s all “attorney-client privilege.” Sure. Because lawyers always need 200 singles.

Kim Kardashian reportedly wants to be the next Bond Girl and she’s getting help from Jeff Bezos. Insiders say she’s meeting with Amazon and MGM execs to make it happen. “She wants it, she’s serious.” I mean, imagine James Bond saving the world while Kim’s trying to find the best light for her selfie. “Hold that explosion, I need a filter!”

Love is back on the playlist! Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes are officially back together after their “cool-off period.” A source says Chase never wanted the breakup and always believed there was “something special.” So basically, they hit pause, realized dating is hard, and hit play again. Fingers crossed this time it’s not just a remix.

The first teaser for Toy Story 5 is out Woody’s back, Buzz is back, but no one’s explaining how or why. Didn’t we all cry and say goodbye in the last one? Guess not. Disney saw our tears and said, “Cool, let’s monetize those.” Get ready for another emotional gut-punch wrapped in nostalgia.

Only Kid Rock could turn a poolside salute into a military investigation. The Army says two Blackhawk helicopters near his Tennessee mansion were just on a Nashville training route, but now they’re checking into why they hovered there. Kid says nobody’s getting in trouble and called it pretty neat. Nothing says casual Tuesday like cannonballs, patriotism, and two black helicopters hovering near your house…

Riley Green is stacking side quests like a pro. He’s making his TV debut on Marshals in mid-April. And because sleep is for other people, he’s also reportedly opening a second Duck Blind bar in Gatlinburg. At this point Riley’s building a country music cinematic universe.

Thomas Rhett says one of his favorite parts of touring is trying wild new foods on the road, which sounds adventurous and expensive. Meanwhile Dylan Scott keeps it a little more backyard chaos at home, admitting he’ll wander into the kitchen at midnight and cook a full meal like it’s noon. His wife wakes up confused; he’s making dinner round two. That’s not a snack, that’s a second shift.
