The List for Friday, October 3rd 2025

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.

The List for Thursday, October 2nd 2025

Welcome to The List,

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?

The List for Wednesday, October 1st 2025

Welcome to The List,

The gossip train is full steam ahead. OK! Magazine says Keith Urban has already moved on with “another woman” after splitting from Nicole Kidman, and apparently everybody in town knows except us. Meanwhile, The Sun claims Nicole has officially filed for divorce after 19 years, because Keith wasn’t happy and the spark was gone. Sources say Nicole was blindsided… which is Hollywood-speak for, “she didn’t see the groupies coming.”

-----

So apparently Alec Baldwin is sweating harder than a gun safety instructor because sources say he’s afraid Hilaria might ditch him after her run on Dancing With the Stars. She’s calling it her big break, loves the idea of living in L.A. for a bit, and doesn’t exactly want Alec lurking around in the background. Translation: she’s trading East Coast drama for West Coast glitter, and Alec is terrified he’s about to get… ghosted by a tango.

-----

Lionel Richie just dropped a little pop history bomb he says he and Quincy Jones used to call Michael Jackson “Smelly.” Not because of some funky dance move, nope… because Michael allegedly refused deodorant, wouldn’t shower, and wore the same clothes for days. Imagine being the King of Pop, moonwalking across the stage, and the backup dancers are passing out because you smell like Thriller… literally.

-----

Lainey Wilson is about to add solo award show host to her belt buckle. After co-hosting with Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning last year, she’s flying solo at the CMA Awards on Wednesday, November 19th on ABC. Which means no Luke dad jokes, no Peyton forehead jokes just Lainey running the whole rodeo herself. If she can wrangle country music’s biggest egos in one night, somebody better give her two trophies.

You can catch The List, with Jonathan Knight this afternoon at 4:20. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
