The List for Friday, February 18th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Carly Pearce talks about writing her and Ashley McBryde’s hit single “Never Wanted To Be That Girl”  ” I just wanted to do something that was a little unexpected, and I didn’t know if she would ever be up for writing. It’s really the only other artist, other than Luke Combs, that I’ve ever asked to write a song with me, and we speak the same country music language.” The second single from Pearce’s third studio album, 29: Written in Stone. Is a top 20 hit for Carly and Ashley…

Would you be interested in seeing photos of GEORGE STRAIT on his tour bus at 2:00 A.M.. . doing tequila shots with former Skid Row singer SEBASTIAN BACH?  Yeah, you heard that right.  Sebastian posted them a couple days ago. It happened earlier this month after one of George’s shows in Vegas.  The whole thing got started because they share a drummer.  Check out the Instagram pic below….

A photographer while taking pictures of the L.A. Rams victory celebration fell off a stage and fractured her spine. . It happened right in front of  MATTHEW STAFFORD and his wife.  While Matthew did a 180 and walked away his wife Kelly went to help the photographer. It’s being reported that Matthew and the team are covering her medical bills

The Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg video game movie “Uncharted” is in theaters today.  It’s up against the Channing Tatumroad-trip movie “Dog”and a horror movie called “The Cursed”

LUKE COMBS will be a dad pretty soon, and when that happens, he’s going to be all-in.  He says family is very important to him, so he plans on bringing the whole crew on tour so he can “be the guy throwing the football to them.”

And finally – Coca-Cola is introducing a new drink inspired by space. The drink is called Starlight and is red and purple when held up to the light. Starlight they say tastes like a combination of Coke Zero and S’mores.

The List for Monday, June 2nd 2025

Welcome to The List,

Well, it’s official—Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen tied the knot in California over the weekend, looking like a Pinterest board come to life. She rocked a strapless gown, gloves, and a veil longer than your aunt’s group text. They got engaged last November, and guess who showed up? Larry freakin' David. Yep, Mr. Curb Your Enthusiasm himself, despite being a hardcore Jets fan. I’m sure that stirred up some awkward small talk by the shrimp cocktail.

-----

Mark Hamill has officially hung up the lightsaber and said, “I’m out.” He told Screen Rant that Star Wars should focus on new characters—translation: “I’ve done my time, now leave me alone.” He even joked about not wanting to be a naked Force ghost since he left his robes behind in The Last Jedi. Honestly, Mark, that’s probably best for all of us. May the pants be with you.

-----

Over in Philly, Jelly Roll and Post Malone had a full-blown magical moment. While Jelly was belting out “Hard Fought Hallelujah” at Citizens Bank Park, a DOUBLE RAINBOW appeared—like, straight-up Disney movie vibes. Jelly even pointed and said, “You can’t tell me God ain’t here!” And honestly? With that kind of timing, either God’s a fan… or He’s on tour too.

-----

Well, country meets abs in the new rom-com The Token Groomsman. Kane Brown is hopping on the rom-com train with Taylor Lautner—yep, Twilight wolf boy himself. Kane’s playing the best friend, while Taylor’s character jets off to a fancy Italian wedding, not for love, but to make business connections. Because nothing says romance like networking over a charcuterie board in Tuscany. Can’t wait to see who gets drunk and ruins the vows.

The List for Friday, May 30th 2025

Welcome to The List,

If you want to impress Amy Poehler DON’T do dumb stuff…She says nothing dries up her interest faster than a dude doing “goofy gymnastics.” She realized it during The Outsiders when Tom Cruise did a backflip and—boom—crush over. Her quote? “He lost it for me.” And somehow… the world kept spinning… and Tom still made a billion dollars jumping off cliffs…

-----

The National Amusement Park Historical Association just crowned Dollywood America’s Favorite Theme Park for the third year in a row. That’s right—while Disney's sweating over lines and price hikes, Dolly's out here serving roller coasters, biscuits, and Southern charm like a queen.

-----

Terry Bradshaw wants Aaron Rodgers nowhere near the Steelers. His exact words? “That guy needs to stay in California. Go chew on bark and whisper to the gods.” Sir. That is not a sports take—that’s a National Geographic diss. Somewhere, Aaron just lit a sage stick and cried…

------

Tim McGraw is healing up after double knee replacements, two back surgeries, and a tour where his whole body went full “Nope.” Don’t forget the partridge in a pear tree….He said it best: “My knees went out, my back went cattywampus,” and I swear that’s not a country song lyric… yet. Somebody get this man a recliner, a heating pad, and a Grammy for touring like RoboDad.
