Welcome to The List,
Today on The List we celebrate favorite Christmas presents…I think MY favorite was waking up in the morning to a room FULL of toys and for one day I didn’t have to clean up my mess… But Brantley Gilbert? He got a new best friend…“The best gift I ever received as a child, I still gotta say, I think I was in third grade, and I got a miniature dachshund. My parents got me a dog, and that little dude was my best friend for eight years. His name was Max, and he was one of the best dogs ever. So that’s probably my best Christmas memory”

The Spice girls could soon be piling back into their infamous double decker bus for a Spice Girls reunion tour. Just two years after the beloved ’90s girl group reunited, minus Beckham, for a brief tour, Sporty Spice herself teased the possibility of yet another reunion, revealing that she and her former bandmates are “constantly” talking about another tour. But, it won’t happen any time soon…but if it did they say a World Tour would happen in 2023. Tell me whatcha want…what cha really, really want…..a Spice Girls reunion tour…

Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley On His Best Christmas Present … “My best Christmas gift I ever received, probably as a child, had to be my G.I. Joe command post. It was basically like a big old castle, a fortress. I woke up on Christmas morning, it was all set up, had all the G.I. Joes, all the players, and it was incredible. I had a wonderful day playing with all my friends, and nothing like a good G.I. Joe as a child. It made for a very memorable experience”

Would you mistake Ryan Reynolds for Ben Affleck? Well it happens almost every time Ryan walks into this New York pizzeria. Ryan says “They believe I’m Ben Affleck and I’ve never corrected them. I feel it would not go over well if I revealed. I do everything normal like everybody else. ‘They’ll ask how J.Lo is and I’m like, “Great, good.” I get the pizza and off I go.” How could you ever mistake Batman for Deadpool….

Welcome to The List,
Keith Urban just gave fans exactly what they’ve been begging for. His brand-new live album “High And A(live)” is officially out now, recorded straight from the High And Alive World Tour. You get 11 number-one hits, plus his cover of “You Get What You Give.” This isn’t a watered-down live album either it’s basically front-row energy without paying arena prices.

Brad Paisley just confessed what every guy already knows… he’s a last-minute Christmas shopper. Brad says he ends up at the mall on December 24th, panic-buying gifts he doesn’t fully understand. He admits it’s a waste of what should be a fun day, but somehow he still does it every year. Buying mystery gifts and hoping for the best… truly a man of the people.

Cher is catching heat for allegedly lip-syncing during her Saturday Night Live performance. Some fans compared it to Ashlee Simpson’s infamous 2004 moment which feels a little dramatic. Cher is 79 years old, it’s a taped show, and lip-syncing has been happening on SNL longer than the cold open.

Jake Paul revealed he had surgery after getting knocked out by Anthony Joshua. He says doctors had to install two titanium plates on each side of his jaw and remove some teeth. Jake says the surgery went well, but he’s on liquids only for seven days. Nothing humbles a YouTuber faster than being on a smoothie diet.

Welcome to The List,
Mike Tyson says he’s open to a rematch with Jake Paul after Jake’s recent loss to Anthony Joshua. Tyson claims this time he’s cracked the code on training, saying he went too hard before and “left most of the fight in the gym.” RadarOnline says Mike thinks a smarter camp would change everything. Which is wild, because the man is still Mike Tyson. If this happens, somebody hide the ear protection… literally.

Taylor Swift reportedly used to be hesitant about dating athletes until Travis Kelce showed up. A source says her mom encouraged her to give Travis a chance, and now Taylor’s outlook has completely changed. Not only that, insiders claim the relationship has boosted the Chiefs’ global presence. Turns out the tight end also unlocked international brand expansion.

Lainey Wilson told CMT she stays grounded by remembering where she came from. She said it’s about planting your feet, knowing who you are, standing up for what you believe in, and keeping your people close. Which explains why she can win everything, host award shows, and still sound like the most normal human in Nashville.

Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are reportedly still neighbors in Nashville as they focus on co-parenting their daughters. Nicole stays in the family home, Keith lives nearby, and they’re even spotted shopping at the same stores…just separately. A source says their dedication to the kids is unwavering. Awkward? Maybe.
