Welcome to The List,

Football is right around the corner so… warm up those nachos because Carrie Underwood is back belting “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” for lucky year thirteen. The new version kicks off September 7th when the Ravens tackle the Bills. Clear your throat, stretch your chips, and prepare to scream-sing along like it’s national cardio.

Ozzy Osbourne just flipped the script on funerals no sobbing backstabbers, just a full-throttle rock-n-roll revenge party. Marching band blasting “Crazy Train” through Birmingham, dark jokes louder than the hearse, and a firm “no fake tears” sign for anyone who crossed Sharon. Even Elton John showed up, probably wearing earplugs.

-----

Miranda Lambert just clapped back at the internet gawking at her caboose. She posted a slow-mo strut video labeled, “Warned y’all ’bout my backyard swagger since 2014.” Basically saying: the view’s been scenic for a decade, folks kindly catch up, adjust your binoculars, and remember manners before ogling country royalty.

-----

Tim McGraw just went full cue-ball chic buzzed off the cowboy locks and rolled out a sharp gray goatee. The Country Wire’s photos prove it: he’s serving “silver-fox bouncer at a honky-tonk spa.” Saddle up, shampoo budget; Tim’s new look could cut wind resistance and maybe your heart rate.

Welcome to The List,

Brad Paisley pulled a fast one in Bridgeport, Connecticut while singing Mr. Policeman, he handed guitar picks to actual cops on stage. Just casually trolling the guys who could literally arrest him mid-solo. The Bridgeport Police loved it, posted the video, and didn’t press charges…for now.

-----

Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau were caught on a dinner date in Montreal. Yes, that Justin Canada’s ex-PM. They sipped cocktails, devoured lobster, and whispered sweet nothings under government-level security. Because nothing says “I miss power” like flirting over shellfish. Thirsty, much?

-----

Kendall Jenner and Chris Stapleton teamed up to promote tequila and whiskey because nothing pairs better than influencers and hangovers. But it got deep: Kendall said she loves sad songs, and Chris hit her with, “It makes us feel less alone in sadness.” Who knew whiskey came with therapy?

-----

Brad Pitt’s filming The Adventures of Cliff Booth, a spinoff from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Meanwhile, Gremlins 3 is ready to roll…just waiting on Steven Spielberg to stop ghosting their texts. So yeah Brad’s back, and the Mogwai might be too. Popcorn, anyone?

Welcome to The List,

Everybody wants to go viral with their ridiculous popcorn buckets, but Marvel just said “hold my butter.” The new Fantastic Four bucket is shaped like Galactus’ head… lights up… and holds 341 ounces of popcorn. It’s officially the world’s biggest popcorn bucket. Because apparently, movies now come with a side of Guinness Records.

-----

So a Miranda Lambert concert clip just blew up on TikTok—and not because of her voice. A fan caught a clear shot of her backstage passes and the top comment? “Now we know why the front row is so expensive.” I mean, she did say she was bringing the heat to Seattle.

-----

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s $25 million Netflix movie is stuck in development... limbo. No director, no cast, and apparently, no one with a wallet is touching it. One insider said, “This isn’t 2020. Meghan’s sparkle has dimmed.” Translation: Netflix is holding the bag, and the bag is empty.

-----

Beyoncé just broke the record for the highest-grossing country music tour of all time. Yeah, you heard that right—COUNTRY. She made over $407 million. Meanwhile, Zach Bryan—actual country dude—only pulled in $321 million. Somebody remind Queen B: rhinestones don’t make you Nashville.
