Welcome to The List,

So, unless you’ve been living under a rock or worse, in Florida you’ve heard of “Phillies Karen.” At a Phillies/Marlins game, a dad caught a home run ball and gave it to his 10-year-old birthday boy. Enter: Phillies Karen, storming over, demanding the ball like it was the last Popeyes chicken sandwich on Earth. Dad handed it over ugh, buzzkill but don’t worry, the kid got a gift bag, an autographed bat, and a life lesson: sometimes people suck, but Harrison Bader’s got your back.

Diddy in Prison

Apparently Sean “Diddy” Combs thought prison was gonna be his VIP afterparty yeah, not so much. Word is, he’s having panic attacks, hasn’t slept a wink, and the swagger is GONE. Inmates don’t see a hip-hop mogul they see a creepy Hollywood scumbag. Honestly, when your toughest battle is with anxiety and not yard time, you know your street cred has officially expired.

Lainey Wilson’s Cribs Tour

Lainey Wilson just went full MTV Cribs with a peek inside her Nashville home. She’s got an Elvis-style Jungle Room, a bar with beer taps Blue Moon for her, Coors Light for her fiancé Duck and even part of the original Grand Ole Opry floor built into her staircase. Meanwhile, I’m over here bragging about the Target rug I bought on clearance….I need to get a life…..

Shaboozey on Thursday Night Football

Music Row says Shaboozey is bringing the hype to Thursday Night Football. He’s performing a new track called ‘Let ’Em Know’ to open the Packers vs. Commanders game on Prime Video. And finally, we’ll get an NFL opener that doesn’t sound like it was pulled from a Madden menu screen.

Welcome to The List,

Miranda Lambert says she’s playing in the Celebrity Ryder Cup… despite having only played 22 holes of golf in her life. Yeah, that’s right—22 holes, not even a full round! So grab your helmets, folks, because this is about to look less like golf and more like “Caddyshack 3: Miranda Swings Back.”

My wife has pointed out—several times—that Russell Dickerson is a total hunk. And apparently, he knows it too. He told Muscle and Fitness he’s “ripped and shredded” because he works out and eats right. He cut out booze, junk food, pizza, wings… basically, he cut out everything that makes life worth living.

Alec Baldwin’s wife, Hilaria, is allegedly wreaking havoc on the Dancing with the Stars set. She wanted Taylor Swift’s former tour dancer, but producers gave him to Jennifer Affleck. Sources say Hilaria went ballistic—because nothing screams “family fun show” like a backstage meltdown. Honestly, I’m just here for when Alec ends up playing the role of bouncer.

Harry and Meghan’s Netflix deal is on life support, so what’s the plan? Oh, just toss the kids in front of the cameras! Archie and Lilibet are reportedly the new “secret weapon.” Translation: Netflix wants a Kardashian-style toddler takeover. Because when your brand is tanking, why not hand your kids the car keys and hope they can steer?

Welcome to The List,

This fall, you can literally get lost in Lainey Wilson’s world and I don’t mean her songs. A company called Maize is cutting her face into over 30 cornfields around the country. Yep, a Lainey Wilson corn maze. They’ve done it before for Reba McEntire and Luke Bryan, so it’s kind of a country music tradition now. Honestly, nothing says fall like pumpkin spice lattes, hayrides, and wandering through a corn maze shaped like Lainey’s big ol’ hat.  The closest one to us…is at the All-Seasons Orchard in Woodstock, IL

Jelly Roll just lived out every wrestling fan’s dream in Paris and no, it wasn’t a croissant-eating contest. He met John Cena. Jelly lost it, called him “The GOAT,” and you could practically hear his inner teenager screaming. He’s over there touring Europe with Post Malone, and the two of them even hit up a WWE event. Which, is probably the only time Jelly Roll and Post haven’t been the most inked guys in the room.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are apparently trying to figure out if their wedding should be backyard barbecue or Hollywood royal gala. A source says Taylor wants it about love, not optics, but also knows whatever she does will be historic. Travis? He’s just happy to rent the horses if she wants a carriage. Basically, Taylor holds the pen, Travis nods yes, and we all wait to see if this ends in brisket and Bud Light or tiaras and televised vows.

“Dancing with the Stars” is back for Season 34, and the celebrity lineup feels like it was picked out of a hat at a family reunion. You’ve got Corey Feldman, Hilaria Baldwin, Dylan Efron yes, Zac’s little brother and Andy Richter. It premieres September 16th on ABC and Disney+. The only thing harder than some of those dance routines will be figuring out who half of these people are.
