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.

The List for Thursday, July 3rd 2025

Welcome to The List,

The Hollywood Walk of Fame just announced its Class of 2026—and it’s STACKED: Miley Cyrus, Shaq, Demi Moore, Timothée Chalamet, Stanley Tucci, and Gabriel Iglesias. That sidewalk's about to be shinier than Shaq’s head and smell like Gabriel’s churros.

-----

Megan Moroney just dropped a sultry little cover of Toby Keith’s “Who’s Your Daddy?” for Apple Music’s Nashville Sessions. A whole playlist of Toby tributes—just in time to soundtrack your fireworks, flag cakes,

-----

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom allegedly split because watching each other’s careers fizzle out was too painful. He wants a McConaughey-style comeback, and she’s exhausted from “American Idol.” Basically, it’s a Hollywood version of “Who forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer?”

-----

Post Malone just opened a massive honky-tonk in Nashville called “Posty’s.” It's got six bars, three stages, and a rooftop patio—plus bolted-down chairs, just in case Morgan Wallen swings by. If you spill a drink there, odds are it’s on purpose.
