Jason Aldean pay tribute to Tom Petty and the victims of the Las Vegas shooting a week earlier with a performance of "I Won't Back Down" on Saturday Night Live, in what year? Who was closer Kathy or John?
Welcome to The List,
Well, looks like Diddy’s Bad Boy for Life has officially hit the sequel Bad Boy Behind Bars. He just got sentenced to 50 months in prison, that’s a little over four years, plus a half-million-dollar fine and five years of supervised release. Prosecutors wanted eleven years, but hey — guess the judge said, “Let’s start with a remix.”

Lainey Wilson just lit up a sold-out Bridgestone Arena in Nashville and brought half of country music with her. Jelly Roll joined her on stage, and after they sang together, he told the crowd, “Sounds like Entertainer of the Year to me!” and honestly, yeah, I’m not arguing with Jelly Roll on that one.
-----
Okay, picture this John Candy… in Goodfellas. Or even Pulp Fiction. Wild, right? Turns out the comedy legend actually screen-tested for Goodfellas and was sent the Pulp Fiction script. So somewhere out there is a universe where John Candy is saying, “Say ‘what’ again!” and I kinda wanna live there.

Tim McGraw is heading to Vegas for a limited run at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace this December the 4th, 6th, 12th, and 13th. He’s stepping in for Dolly Parton, who had to bow out to recover from some medical procedures. So Tim’s taking the stage, and let’s be honest if anyone can fill Dolly’s boots, it’s McGraw.

Tie Breaker What year did Double Dare premiere on Nickelodeon? 198____
Welcome to The List,
So apparently Nicole Kidman’s Hollywood besties have iced out Keith Urban. Word is, he’s officially “dead in Hollywood.” They’ve scrubbed his name off the guest lists, won’t take his calls, and without Nicole… he’s basically invisible. And get this they supposedly lived apart for three years before divorcing. At that point, they weren’t even husband and wife anymore just long-distance coworkers with better wardrobes.
-----
Lainey Wilson is fixin’ to throw herself a wedding so big it might need its own ZIP code. She’s marrying former NFL QB Devlin “Duck” Hodges, and the guest list is outta control. Hundreds of invites because Lainey doesn’t wanna hurt anyone’s feelings. Meanwhile, Duck’s just happy he made the cut. Like buddy, you’re the groom, not a plus-one.
-----
Tim McGraw went full Cupid at a recent show. He brought a couple up on stage, the guy drops to one knee, proposes, and she says yes. The crowd goes nuts. Honestly, if she’d said no in front of Tim McGraw and 20,000 screaming fans? That man would’ve had to hitchhike home.
-----
So, Diddy gets sentenced today. Yesterday, he wrote the judge a letter like, “Scout’s honor, I’ll never do crimes again.” Sweet, right? Well, also yesterday he got slapped with two brand-new sexual assault lawsuits. Yeah. That’s like telling your dentist you floss daily while chewing on a Milk Dud.

Luke Combs New Music
Well, Luke Combs just gave us the gift of hope for 2026 and some new tunes this Friday. He announced on X that three songs from his upcoming album are ready now, calling it The Prequel. We’re talking “Days Like These,” “15 Minutes,” and “My Kinda Saturday Night.” Bonus next year’s tour is named after that last one. So get ready: new music, new tour, new excuses to call in sick. Luke’s keeping us busy.

Nicole Kidman, Blake Shelton & Keith Urban Drama
Nicole Kidman’s friendship group is apparently convinced Blake Shelton knew about Keith Urban’s alleged cheating. Nicole says no one gave her a hint ..not Blake, no one… and now she’s seeing all the “signs” in hindsight. Oh, and the plot thickens: her prenup might cost her millions, with a clause paying Keith $600k per year they were together. So yes… heartbreak, betrayal, and a budget crisis all rolled into one Hollywood breakup.

Country Music & the Super Bowl
Twenty-two years without country at the Super Bowl halftime show. That’s how long it’s been since Shania Twain strutted onto the stage in thigh-high boots, blasting “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” and “Up!” with No Doubt and Sting backing her up. Since then? Silence. Nada. Country’s been ghosted from the biggest stage in America. Fans have been waiting, praying, and probably writing petitions. Twenty-two years later the drought is real.
-----
In the trailer for Season 7 of "The Kardashians", Kim says investigators told her that someone "extremely close" put out a hit on her life. There's no word who did it . . . if it's true . . . but people are thinking Kanye…Rating are that bad huh?
