The List for Monday, August 22nd 2022

Welcome to The List,

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez had a proper wedding at Ben’s estate in Georgia on Saturday.  They didn’t just throw a party to celebrate they got married all over again.  J-Lo wore a full-on wedding gown, train and all this time.  All their kids were there, along with celebrity guests including Matt Damon, Jimmy Kimmel, Kevin Smith, and Jason Mewes.

Will Smith posted a video where he and his son Trey discover a tarantula in their home.  Will filmed the spider while standing on a chair, telling Trey to get rid of it because, quote, “you’re young and strong, you can handle the bite.” Eventually, they teamed up.  Trey put a glass bowl on top of the spider, and Will slipped a piece of paper under it… and like the manly men they are….hightailed it to a Holiday Inn…don’t really blame them….

Craig Morgan received the wrong merchandise shipment for his shows last week.  He ended up with Adele’s CDs,  but sold them at his booth anyway.  Craig thinks maybe the gods are saying they should do a duet.

The milestones keep rolling in! After 13 weeks on the big screen, Top Gun: Maverick has collected $683 million in North America, enough to overtake Marvel’s “Avengers: Infinity War” ($678 million) as the sixth-highest grossing movie in domestic box office history. Top Gun: Maverick will be available on streaming services August 23rd and out on DVD November 1st.

Blake Shelton has new priorities in life…He tells Entertainment Tonight that Gwen Stefani, and not his career, is it. Saying ”Look, I love music and I love The Voice. I love all the cool things I get to do with my job, but those things all take a backseat now to Gwen and the kids and it’s just a new phase of my life.” Thankfully it doesn’t include another mullet….

Paramount Pictures is developing a ”Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” spin-off.  “Sam and Victor’s Day Off” is about the two valets that took Cameron’s father’s red Ferrari for a joy ride in Chicago.  The creators of ”Cobra Kai” are developing this film

The List for Tuesday, February 10th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Will there be another Austin Powers? Rumors say Mike Myers is turning down massive offers to bring the franchise back. Sources claim he does not need the money, already made tens of millions, and still cashes in every Halloween. Apparently he is focused on dad life instead of shagadelic life. So no, baby… he is not desperate.

-----

Cody Johnson just confirmed he and Luke Combs finally cut a song together. Fans have been waiting years for this bromance to hit the studio. They toured Australia and New Zealand together, and now the friendship is officially on vinyl. And that is not all. Cody also says there is a track with Brothers Osborne on the new album. That record is about to be stacked.

-----

Ella Langley just hit number one on the all-genre Hot 100 with “Choosin’ Texas.”

That puts her in elite company with legends like Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Jeannie C. Riley, and Beyoncé. She is also reportedly the first female artist to hold number one on Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, and the Hot 100 at the same time. Released October 7th and it has been sprinting ever since. That is not just a hit. That is a takeover.

-----

And speaking of Taylor Swift, betting sites say there is a 50 percent chance her childhood friend Abigail Anderson is Maid of Honor. They also give a 25 percent chance that Vera Wang designs the dress. We are now gambling on bridal parties. This wedding might need its own sportsbook. Only in 2026, folks.
