Here’s one thing I know for sure about Hardy.  He’s not afraid of slithering reptiles.  He posted a video of himself removing a decent-sized snake that was on the same fairway where he was golfing. In the video Hardy using one of his clubs pins the snake to the grass, reaches for the head allowing the rest of the snake to wrap itself around that hand. Then takes it away probably to throw it into the woods.

“Saturday Night Live” kicks off its 48th season on October 1st with Miles Teller hosting and Kendrick Lamar as musical guest.  On the 15th, Megan Thee Stallion pulls double duty as host AND musical guest.

Shania Twain’s new song “Waking Up Dreaming” is out Friday, but lucky for us, she posted a tease on TikTok.  The video starts with a young Shania playing guitar, and then it cuts to a clip of her kicking it into high gear on stage.  That’s followed by one scene after another of her amazing career.

Adam Sandler’s been seen in public lately using a cane.  But as it turns out, it’s not for fashion.  Adam underwent hip surgery sometime around Labor Day. But don’t worry, it wasn’t an emergency.  He apparently scheduled it in between projects, so he’ll be healed and ready for his comedy tour.  The tour kicks off October 20th in Connecticut.

Maren Morris tells the Los Angeles Times that she is not sure she wants to attend the CMA Awards. Saying she’s honored that her record is nominated. But doesn’t know if she feels [at] home there right now. Adding, maybe I’ll make a game-time decision and go. But as of right now, I don’t feel comfortable going.”

The List for Friday, December 26th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Nicole Kidman is reportedly hitting the reset button on her love life. Insiders say she’s done with high-profile relationships and now wants something quieter, calmer, and way less tabloid-friendly. Along with that, she’s allegedly planning a full image refresh new look, possible cosmetic tweaks, the whole “new chapter” energy.

Adam Sanders was crowned the very first winner of The Road during the finale at the legendary Ryman Auditorium. And right after the big win, Keith Urban leaned in and whispered something Sanders says he’ll never forget: “You played this thing like a F’n fiddle.” Sanders beat out Cassidy Daniels and Channing Wilson and walked away with prize money, a record deal, a Stagecoach main-stage slot, and a Keith Urban quote that belongs in a frame.

Kate Gosselin is officially walking again just 82 days after a serious leg injury. She shared the update on TikTok, saying she’s easing back in stages 25 percent, then 50, then 100. She says it’s a huge step toward recovery and she’s excited. Which is great, because raising eight kids feels like a full-contact sport.

And finally… Tyler Farr admitted to one of the most country stories ever told. He says he once went skinny dipping and peed in Jason Aldean’s pool. Yes. That happened. Farr shared it like a proud memory, though Jason’s pool filter probably needed therapy afterward. Country music friendships are built different… and apparently so are their pools.

The List for Tuesday, December 23rd 2025

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.
