We asked Chris Lane what it's like to still have his brother in the band "It's great I have my twin brother, I'm glad he can be a part of this with me. You know we started this together and he's still drumming with the band. What about the rest of the band? We're still just getting to know each other, we know each other really well but, they've only been with the band for a year now. But, we're best of friends out on the road everyone gets along great it's alot of fun."

Most people know Darius Rucker loves to golf to find out that his son loves the game just as much as he does is great! "You know, having my son be a golfer and love it the way that he does is so amazing for me because you know we could do it for the rest of our lives. We could play from different tees and we could play together for as long as we can physically play. I just look forward to those times with him…and the times we’ve already had have been amazing.”

Tim Allen talks about reviving his "Home Improvement" character for a special crossover episode of "Last Man Standing." "A lot of challenges for me as an actor, and then I play against another individual then they put obviously put me in the scene. We had to add an element of reality to it and it got kinda sad about it because he's lost his job at 'Tool Time' I don't want to give to much of the story away." "Last Man Standing" the crossover episode airs tonight on Fox.

Randy Jackson talks about his new game show 'Name That Tune' and how the new version is set up. "Now the beginning round is a little different we put in 'Mix Tape', we still have 'Spin The Wheel' which is like melody roulette and the final round 'Golden Medley' is just like the classic iconic gameshow." 'Name That Tune' airs Wednesdays on Fox.

Sad news to report today - Sacha Baron Cohen tells Variety magazine that he is done playing Borat. There was a purpose to this movie, and I don’t really see the purpose to doing it again. So yeah, he’s locked away in the cupboard.''

Welcome to The List -

If you've heard rumor's that FGL is breaking up well, Tyler Hubbard is here to clear that up "From the mouth of Tyler and BK, we're not breaking up. We're just venturing out, we're just doing some individual things that we're excited about. I know things are going to appear and seem different at times, It's ultimately left us feeling alot of freedom."

Blake Shelton talks about why he and Gwen decided to release 'Happy Together' when they did.       " We all got together and decided that's the song we're going to release next because, we've all been in quarantine and lock down and hopefully we've been doing that with someone we really love. That's what happened with Gwen and I, this summer this entire year. I just seemed like the perfect song to come with."

Wonder Woman 1984 , held on to the number one spot over the weekend making another $5.5 Million
