Welcome to The List,
It’s Black Friday and Chris Young Says ‘Black Friday’ Doesn’t Seem As Fun As It Used To Be … “This is kind of a weird thing ’cause I feel like Black Friday doesn’t really exist anymore. 8 of the 14 major retailers that are all opening on Thursday, and it’s like, man, it just kind of kills it for me a little bit. Cause that’s somethin’ that in the past I have done. Me and my family would totally get up and go early, even when we weren’t lookin’ for anything. Just like the whole madness and the rush of everybody shopping and I thought was really, really cool, and I don’t think you get that anymore. I don’t think it’s the same.”

Brett Young Loves The Sights And Smells Of Christmas … “The first thing always is that the day after Thanksgiving all the Christmas decorations including the tree go up at my parents’ house and in my apartment. There’s a movie, A Christmas Story, and that’s been my family’s thing that you know TBS does the marathon every year and we watch it until they stop playing it. And then a new one snuck in in the last couple of years that I’m obsessed with that I watch year round pretty much, and that’s Elf. So both of those movies also are like I don’t need to wait for December for that. And then anything kind of like ‘nutmegy’ I’m not a big baker but like every once in a while I’ll be, ‘All right I’ve got to make some sort of holiday dessert to make the house smell like that.’ And so I usually get myself into trouble with something like that too.”

Will Smith is reportedly gearing up for a massive Hollywood comeback and has signed a major deal with Paramount. The National Enquirer says he wants action comedies, thrillers, big sci-fi spectacles — basically all the stuff that turned him into The Fresh Prince of the Box Office. A source says he’s cracking down on his team and demanding the best scripts, directors, writers… because “failure is not an option.” Translation: Will is done apologizing. He wants his summer-blockbuster crown back.

Ben Affleck is allegedly crushed after hearing that his ex-wife Jennifer Garner is planning her wedding to longtime boyfriend John Miller. Sources say Jen is glowing, happier than she’s been in years, and believes John is the one she was meant to be with. Meanwhile, Ben is apparently sitting there with a Dunkin’ cup and a broken heart. They’re not together, he’s not invited, but somehow he’s still catching feelings like it’s 2005 again.

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.”
