Country Music Tattle Tale says Luke Bryan and Darius Rucker are going to perform at the Grand Ole Opry on August 15th. No crowd will be present because of the coronavirus. The show will be live streamed...and we'll keep you updated.

We asked Chris Janson if he could Collaborate With Two Music Icons who would he pick? ... "I have to be honest with you man, I would want to collaborate with somebody unbelievable like...Elton John...that would be a great collaborator. Now that I play piano in the show, it's like not a big deal I'm just throwing it out there...maybe Billy Joel who doesn't like him"

Paul McCartney tells GQ Magazine that he agreed to guest star on ''The Simpsons'' in 1995 as long as Lisa Simpson remained a vegetarian. ' A show consultant says Paul still makes sure Lisa is a vegetarian to this day. saying quote ''He always checks. And he’s always surrounded by nine or 10 lawyers, so it’s quite frightening.'' is it THAT serious?

Comedian Jeff Foxworthy discusses shaving off his mustache off with Kelly Clarkson "I started growing it the summer between the 11th and 12th grade, and I've been with my wife for 36 years and she had never seen me without it. I didn't even say anything, just went in the bathroom and shaved it off...walked out...and she looked at me and said 'Oh wow' grow it back" 80% of his fans on Instagram all said the same thing...

Happy National Underwear day...

The List for Tuesday August 4th 2020

Welcome to The List -

Kane Brown Got Lost On His Own Property and had to be rescued ..."We got lost for seven hours, We have thirty acres in the woods. We made our own trail, and then it started raining, it started getting dark, and then we started running out of gas...so, we ended up having to call the cops and walking down"..to be fair, he did just buy the property and wasn't familiar with it yet.

Brad Paisley Helps A Soldier Deliver A Virtual Surprise For His Wife ... Paisley joined a Zoom call between a deployed soldier, named Austin, and his wife. Paisley thanks Austin for all he does and promises to meet his young son in person one day.

If you get a chance to meet Al Roker or Kelly Clarkson the one thing you should never say is ..."You look so much better in person." "Yeah, I go out and shake hands on the plaza, and invariably at least one person will say Oh my gosh, you look so much better in person. I know they mean it as a compliment, but I make my living on TV..so, it just means that I'm scarring small children?"

Uproxx claims Tom Cruise and the producers of Mission Impossible 7 may blow up a bridge in Poland that some residents consider a national monument. But, Poland's Deputy Culture Minister Pawel Lewandowski says...now, hold on...it's an unused chunk of suspension railway bridge...that's 111 years old and is in ruin....It has no value..therefore it's not a monument....let's blow it up!!
