The List for Tuesday, May 23rd 2023

Welcome to The List,

Jude Law plays Henry the 8th in the new historical thriller “Firebrand” and Jude decided that in order to really inhabit the role, he should SMELL like Henry. As it turns out Henry smelled AWFUL . . . partly because of leg ulcers.  So Jude found a perfume specialist who made him a concoction that mixed the odors of blood, sweat, and fecal matter. Some actors take it kinda far….it’s called acting, can’t you just ACT like you smell bad?   Blood, Sweat and Fecal Matter I’m going to make that the name of my next punk band.

Woody Allen to the rescue!!  He was having dinner in Manhattan when his friend started choking.  Woody jumped up and performed the Heimlich.  The guy says, quote, “If it wasn’t for his quick thinking, I fear I may have died.  I owe him my life.”

—–

Justin Moore doesn’t understand why his 13-year-old daughter never leaves her room.  Quote, “I’ve seen the room.  It’s not that spectacular to stay in there eight hours a day.” She’s a 13 year old girl….and there’s this think called Tik Tok…

Old Dominion star Matthew Ramsey tells Forbes magazine that the band travels with their own ‘gourmet chef’. It’s a member of their crew, she learned how to cook and started cooking big family meals.  It really brings us together more like a family than a crew.

Megan Moroney tells Billboard magazine that she doesn’t consider what she writes to be love songs. Saying she doesn’t write love songs, she writes sad songs for sad people. If they happen to be about people in love..that’s just a happy accident.  She wants people to feel when they hear her songs…so…she wants people to be sad?

—–

There may be Fast and the Furious spinoffs in the wings…Vin Diesel tells Variety magazine that he wants to make several Fast and the Furious spin-offs.  He’s already developed a female spinoff…he says the sooner he can deliver the concepts the sooner he can launch them…

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.

The List for Monday, December 22nd 2025

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.
