Spider-Man: No Way Home’ is going to be one of Marvel’s BIGGEST movies…but it’s not keeping Tom Holland from pranking the man in charge… “The Spider-Man suite because the thing is so tight, the zips sometimes get stuck. We have a bottle of lube that we squirt on the zips to like get it open. Rich Bow is there he’s one of our big Marvel producers in charge of the money, so you know, a COVID shutdown for him is a very serious thing. This bottle of lube DOES suspiciously look like a bottle of hand sanitizer. So, he walks over and he’s chatting to me and he’s like ‘hey man, can I get some of that hand sanitizer?’ I look at my brother Harry and I’m like this is about to be golden” ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ opens in theaters on Friday, December 17th.

You may have some great Christmas memories…we asked Carrie Underwood about some of her’s.. “One thing that we always did growing up that was one of my favorite memories, we would on Christmas Eve we would go to my grandparents’ house. Us kids were always responsible for putting oranges and apples and bananas in little paper bags and we would go down to the nursing home and sing Christmas carols.” How cool is that….

Welcome to The List,
Sad news from the soap world. General Hospital icon Anthony Geary has passed away at age 78 due to complications from surgery in Amsterdam. Fans knew him forever as Luke Spencer, one of the most legendary characters daytime TV has ever seen. His longtime on-screen partner Genie Francis said, “No star burned brighter than Tony Geary,” adding that working with him was always unpredictable and exciting. A true original, and a massive loss for television history.

Radar Online says Mariah Carey is allegedly stressed that her Christmas anthem All I Want For Christmas Is You might not dominate the charts this year. Apparently Gen Z is flirting with other holiday jams. An insider says this song is basically Mariah’s financial Super Bowl. If it underperforms, the brand wobbles. Somewhere, Mariah is warming up her whistle register and threatening December itself.

Riley Green had a moment onstage when a fan tossed leopard-print granny panties at him mid-show. He kept singing like a pro while the internet absolutely did not. His tour crew has now started collecting bras, panties, and even hair extensions thrown on stage. Riley said they were going to donate the bras once he learned how expensive they are. Country concerts really are built different.

Blake Shelton told People magazine that Gwen Stefani is the head chef at home, especially when it comes to Italian food. Blake says her lasagna takes all day to make, but he’d eat it for the rest of his life. Somewhere, an Oklahoma grill is quietly weeping, but love is love. And apparently love tastes like lasagna.
