Nashville Music Minute The constant at Jelly Roll's house is
Friday 19th December 2025
Welcome to The List,
Tim McGraw made history this weekend, rocking the very first concert at the Field of Dreams in Dyersville. And it wasn’t just big for Iowa it was personal. McGraw told the crowd it would’ve been his dad Tug’s 81st birthday, then had everybody sing Happy Birthday to the late MLB pitcher. He posted later: “First ever concert, Tug’s birthday too… hard to top that, Iowa!”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce might be heading down the aisle… quietly. Word is they’re planning a small wedding with just close friends and family. The “wedding of the century,” but, you know chill. They’re engaged, still living in separate houses, and shopping for the perfect love nest. Oh, and Taylor might step back as godmother to Blake Lively’s kids thanks to some messy legal drama.

Cue the wrestling theme music because Hulk Hogan’s $25 million fortune may spark a battle nastier than any match he ever fought. His kids, Brooke and Nick, could go head-to-head with wives and creditors in a legal smackdown. Insiders say it’s gonna be ugly, bitter, and drag on for years. So basically… Hulkamania, but in probate court.

Blake Shelton may have dropped a little shade on The Voice. While hyping his new CBS show The Road, he said it’s not just another stage where people sing cover songs. Nope it’s about the real grind: sleeping on buses, playing to crowds that didn’t buy tickets, and writing songs that might never pay the bills. Translation: welcome to country music boot camp.

Welcome to The List,
"Apparently Tom Cruise has a new mission hating Pedro Pascal. Word is, Tom’s in his 60s but still refuses to pass the Hollywood torch. He patched things up with Brad Pitt, but now Pedro bugs him because he does TV and movies. Tom’s like, real stars only pack theaters.’ Meanwhile, Pedro’s out here running the galaxy and HBO. Someone get Tom a juice box."

"Morgan Wallen tells Men’s Journal his escape from fame is hunting with his buddies. He says being in the middle of nowhere helps him chill out and de-stress. Which is fair, because nothing says peace and quiet like blasting ducks out of the sky with your best friends. That’s country therapy…

"A new poll says 72% of us don’t care that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged. And yet over a million shares of their engagement post set an Instagram record. So yeah, we don’t care… we just care enough to make it the most talked-about thing on the planet.

"Bill Belichick is 73 and dating a 24-year-old. And now, his girlfriend just filed to trademark the phrase ‘Gold Digger’ for jewelry and keychains. That’s a 49-year age gap, folks. At this point, their anniversary gifts are probably Metamucil and a TikTok ring light."
