Welcome to The List,
It might surprise you that Heidi Klum doesn’t hold her husband to “model standards.” She prefers her husband to be pudgy. She says the extra weight is manly and she doesn’t want to be with someone who worries about their muscles or is super shredded…So, guys…there’s still hope for some of us…

I know that because he called me Chris Rock.”

Welcome to The List,
Luke Combs just welcomed baby number three, and at this point he’s not running a family… he’s running a small football team. His new son is named Chet Wiley Combs, joining big brothers Tex and Beau, which also sounds like a law firm that only handles tractor-related lawsuits. Nicole is now outnumbered four to one, which means Luke finally achieved his lifelong dream… living in a non-stop WWE event with juice boxes.

Keith Urban and Jennifer Lopez are reportedly texting late at night, which means somewhere Nicole Kidman is casually holding Keith’s phone like, “Oh look… Jennifer sent another smiley face.” Sources say matchmakers want them together, and honestly, if this happens, country and pop fans will unite faster than free beer at a wedding.
