Welcome to The List,

Earlier this week, Mickey Dolenz asked the FBI to release any files it has on the Monkees, which seems a little weird.  But the FBI has had an eye on tons of celebrities over the years, for various reasons…John Denver, Marilyn Monroe, Whitney Houston even Princes Diana…

Sources say Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen have been fighting over Tom's decision to play again this season.  According to the "New York Post", the two were fighting pretty hard about it, to the point where Gisele left the family home in Tampa and jetted to Costa Rica. Will the split be permanent?  A so-called "source" says this isn't the first time they've had this argument, but they always make up…nothing says “I’m MAD at you” like a trip to Costa Rica….

Welcome to The List,

Remember when an Internet campaign convinced the suits at "Saturday Night Live" to let Betty White host?  Well, a similar thing might happen for Carol Burnett. "SNL" asked fans on Twitter who they'd like to see host, and Carol got an avalanche of support. . Here's the kicker:  If Carol does the show, she'll be the oldest person who's EVER hosted.  She's 89 years old.  Betty was only 88 when SHE hosted. It could be NBC's golden opportunity to snag some CBS viewers.  If they can stay up that late.

A South Wales woman got the scare of her life when shopping in a quirky antique store…she found a hideous, naked, life-size replica of Sylvester Stallone. It’s a prop replica of his character from "Demolition Man", who was cryogenically frozen.  It probably came from the old Planet Hollywood in Sydney which was closed in 2002…they’re not saying how much she paid for it….

Chase Rice was so inspired by his "Key West & Colorado" video, that he went out and bought an Airstream trailer.  He said he's going to take it on tour with him.  But more importantly, he asked fans, quote, "What should I name her?"
