Welcome to The List,

Someone once said that major celebrity deaths come in THREES.  It's unclear who first said that . . . and if they’ve died, who were the other two people who died at the same time.   We lost three beloved celebrity old-schoolers over the weekend.  Nichelle Nichols from "Star Trek" . . . NBA legend Bill Russell . . . and actress Pat Carroll, who provided the voice of Ursula in "The Little Mermaid".

-----

Luke Bryan brought a little happiness to two boys at his show on Saturday.  They were holding up a T-shirt that said, "Our dad died.  Can we sing 'Drink a Beer' together?"  Not only did he sing with them, but he also put on the shirt.

-----

Britney Spears finished writing a tell-all, but it won't come out anytime soon . . . because there isn't enough paper.  Lucky US…There's apparently a global paper shortage, so until it's resolved, there isn't an estimated release date.

-----

On Friday, Will Smith put out a five-minute video, where he apologizes for slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars.  It seems sincere, but it also took him almost SIX MONTHS to put out. The video is titled "It's been a minute," and it HAS.  Actually, it’s been about 244,000 MINUTES since the Oscars.  In it he says,  he’s reached out to Chris Rock and hasn’t heard anything back yet,  Jada had nothing to do with it and that he is devoted to bringing joy into the world.

Tragedy struck Kenny Chesney's show in Denver on Saturday when a fan fell off the side of an escalator and died.  Police said she was sitting on the railing when it happened.  Kenny was "devastated" by the news, and said he's grieving for the woman and her family.

Welcome to The List,

Jason Momoa revealed yesterday that Ben Affleck is returning as Batman in "Aquaman and the Lost Kindgom".  They were trying to keep it a secret, but they were outed by a tour bus on the Warner Brothers lot.  Ben already suited up for "The Flash", which is supposed to come out in June of 2023 . . . providing Ezra Miller can keep his nose clean.  But "Aquaman" hits theaters in March, three months earlier.

-----

Amy Grant had a bike accident on Wednesday and was taken to the hospital to be treated for "cuts, lacerations, and abrasions.”  Amy had open heart surgery two years ago so I'm sure they're being extra cautious.  Her husband Vince Gill canceled three shows to be with her.  she was wearing a helmet and is scheduled to be released soon.

-----

Deadline Hollywood says another Rocky spin-off movie is in development. MGM plans to produce a film called ''Drago''. It will focus on Dolph Lundgren's character as well as his son Viktor, who was seen in ''Creed 2''.

-----

The British tabloids are saying that Miranda Lambert's husband Brendan McLoughlin has to ask her for money, and it's "driving him crazy."  Miranda loves posting photos of all the good times she and her husband have on Her Instagram.  Brendan retired from the NYPD in 2020, and became a member of her security team.  Sure, but I doubt he's clocking in with the rest of the team.  My guess is that he has a "Miranda company credit card" and no worries…

-----

The Daily Mail says Tom Cruise spent yesterday paragliding off the side of a mountain in the UK. He was filming scenes for ''Mission Impossible 8.'' Tom left the area in a helicopter and is being allowed to film a portion of the movie in Westminster Abbey…As always…it’s GGOD to be Tom..
