Welcome to The List,
Geo TV says Sean 'Diddy' Combs is allegedly considering pursuing a law degree. An insider reveals he believes his legal strategy helped dismantle the case against him. An insider told the outlet, "He thinks he's got a legal mind. He's convinced that his strategy is what helped dismantle the case. He wants the degree, the title – and the power that comes with it. Diddy doesn't just want to beat the system. He wants to own it.’’ THIS is what we call “Delusions of grandeur”…

Taylor Swift could soon reign supreme in Las Vegas with a record-breaking residency offer. A source reveals, “This isn’t just a residency. This would make her bigger than Elvis in Vegas. She’d own the city. She could sell out months in advance and that’s before international fans book a single flight. This is the crown jewel. If she says yes, she instantly becomes the biggest act the Strip has ever seen.”

Brittany Aldean had one of those “parent weekends from hell” waiting hours at Urgent Care with her six-year-old daughter Navy, only to be told, “Yep, it’s just a virus, let it run its course.” Navy spiked a scary fever, but she’s already bouncing back even made it to a pool day with her brother Memphis. Brittany posted the whole saga with a sarcastic thumbs up and a wine glass, because let’s be honest… every parent’s been there. Oh, and the Aldean kids? Back to school Memphis in second grade, Navy starting first!

You don’t usually expect a Brad Paisley show to come with a lightning special effect but that’s what fans got in Florida when Mother Nature struck the stage not once, but twice! Mid-song, Paisley’s mic fried, the giant LED screen went full “Poltergeist,” and the crowd jumped out of their boots. Even Floridians who eat thunderstorms for breakfast flinched at that second strike. Brad’s “Truck Still Works” tour? Yeah, but the sound system sure didn’t for a few minutes.
You can catch The List, weekday afternoons at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
