Cassadee Pope says there are TWO things she loves during the holidays…family and FUDGE "My family and I always like to do a Christmas Eve sort of deal, where we either go to midnight mass or we gather together at someone’s house and open one present each. We all like to eat a lot on Christmas, and one thing in particular that I love is my Grandma’s fudge. She makes amazing fudge, and that only happens during Christmas time"

Welcome to The List,
Today on The List we celebrate favorite Christmas presents…I think MY favorite was waking up in the morning to a room FULL of toys and for one day I didn’t have to clean up my mess… But Brantley Gilbert? He got a new best friend…"The best gift I ever received as a child, I still gotta say, I think I was in third grade, and I got a miniature dachshund. My parents got me a dog, and that little dude was my best friend for eight years. His name was Max, and he was one of the best dogs ever. So that’s probably my best Christmas memory"

But, it won’t happen any time soon…but if it did they say a World Tour would happen in 2023. Tell me whatcha want…what cha really, really want…..a Spice Girls reunion tour…

Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley On His Best Christmas Present ... "My best Christmas gift I ever received, probably as a child, had to be my G.I. Joe command post. It was basically like a big old castle, a fortress. I woke up on Christmas morning, it was all set up, had all the G.I. Joes, all the players, and it was incredible. I had a wonderful day playing with all my friends, and nothing like a good G.I. Joe as a child. It made for a very memorable experience"

Would you mistake Ryan Reynolds for Ben Affleck? Well it happens almost every time Ryan walks into this New York pizzeria. Ryan says "They believe I’m Ben Affleck and I’ve never corrected them. I feel it would not go over well if I revealed. I do everything normal like everybody else. 'They’ll ask how J.Lo is and I’m like, "Great, good." I get the pizza and off I go." How could you ever mistake Batman for Deadpool….

Welcome to The List,
Today we find out last minute shopper…many procrastinate.. not mentioning any names…like the guys in ‘A Thousand Horses’ notorious last minute shoppers "I am totally a last-minute gift buyer for Christmas, and other occasions. So, I’m definitely the guy you’ll find at the mall on Christmas Eve, at 11:00 p.m. shopping for last minute gifts." Graham Deloach says: "Christmas shopping stresses me out to no end. I’m a horrible shopper, have no idea what to get for anyone, and I do the majority of my shopping -- I don’t wrap it up until Christmas Eve. I’m the worst" I wouldn’t say you’re the worst…I have a few I still have to wrap myself..

But then you have Brad Paisley, he LOVES last minute shopping…Not really… “It’s a shame. It’s really a waste of what should be a fun day, ’cause you know, here I am scrambling around going, ‘Oh, I think they’ll like that.’ They may have never heard of it, and I don’t know what it is necessarily, but let’s buy it! And I could give it to somebody. (laughs) You end up buying all these things, and it’s just a waste.” He blames it on lack of planning…on our part guys…he’s not wrong.
