Welcome to The List,
Luke Combs talks about his latest song “After All” and the inspiration for it. I wrote this song obviously about my wife Nicole, and it was the first song that I had written in our new house that we live in here in Tennessee. It just felt like we were taking a huge step forward with our relationship and with our life and wanted to encompass that in a song.”
Miranda Lambert talks about why the video for Settling Down is so special to her. “We shot this video at my farm, I got to ride my horses. So, it was really special, I’m so thankful to have that on tape because it’s my happy place.”
Complex magazine says The Ellen show that was announced yesterday is going away…kind of…Tiffany Haddish is the favorite to replace Ellen on the show.

Welcome to The List,
Rumors are flying that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have allegedly set a wedding date. A so-called source says the planning is “military-level precise,” which tracks, because Taylor hates surprises and Travis runs NFL playbooks for a living. Pop music, professional football, and Hollywood elite all in one room. Locked down, protected, unforgettable. Basically the most intense group project ever attempted.

Former Bachelor host Chris Harrison is launching a new dating show for people who want a “traditional, marriage-minded partnership built on commitment and shared values.” Which apparently is now considered edgy programming. Somewhere, reality TV just gasped. This is not roses and drama. This is compatibility and emotional maturity.

Before Luke Combs made it big, he had $200 left in his bank account. That money went toward mastering one song, “Hurricane.” He releases it, sells about 10,000 copies the first week, and uses the cash to finish the rest of the album. Then pitches it to labels. And that, kids, is how you bet on yourself and win.

Toby Keith, Kenny Rogers, and Ed Harris are being inducted into the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. The ceremony happens in April in Oklahoma City. They’re joining legends like George Strait, Brooks & Dunn, Kurt Russell, and Burt Reynolds. That is a hall with serious swagger. Cowboy hats optional. Legends required.
