Welcome to The List,
If you ask someone to name a celebrity with above-average brain power… most people don’t immediately yell “KIM KARDASHIAN.” And after the latest episode of The Kardashians, the bar didn’t get any higher. Her doctor showed her brain scans with “holes,” meaning low activity in the frontal lobe basically the command center for stress and decision-making. He said it’s not deadly, just not ideal for someone juggling law school, a beauty empire, and Kanye West. Kim refused to accept the results like a kid refusing broccoli.

Ella Langley is still celebrating her triple CMA win with Riley Green, but fans only care about one thing: who she’s dating. The rumor mill has moved off Riley and onto John Sansone from Farmer Wants a Wife. He’s a sixth-generation farmer turned reality star who just broke up with his TV girlfriend. The kicker? He posted pics with Ella’s dog Crue… and she posted a video of them shooting together. Country music fans connect dots quicker than the FBI and right now they’re convinced Ella’s planting new crops.

Keith Urban is allegedly dating 25-year-old singer Karley Scott Collins who looks suspiciously like Nicole Kidman’s clone. They were spotted together at the CMAs, and she posted a birthday tribute to him online. Sources say the age gap is raising eyebrows, but hey, Keith’s living his best post-divorce life. Nashville loves drama, and this one practically came pre-gift-wrapped.

Quentin Tarantino is reportedly itching to make a Kill Bill prequel about Bill’s origin story. Because the one thing we were missing from that franchise was even more sword-swinging backstory. No casting details yet, but you know Tarantino’s already dreaming up a 14-minute monologue about childhood trauma and kung fu philosophy. Fans are already rehearsing.
