Welcome to The List,

Well THAT escalated quickly. Keith Urban was doing an Aussie radio interview when someone asked how he feels about Nicole Kidman locking lips with Zac Efron onscreen. Next thing you know—click!—the Zoom call vanishes like my willpower near pizza. The hosts say Keith’s team bailed. But a source says “Keith didn’t hang up! It was a technical issue” Uh-huh. And I only watch Nicole’s movies for the plot.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton might trade Hollywood for hay bales! Word is, they're finally serious about having a baby and raising it in Oklahoma, far away from TMZ and overpriced oat milk. Blake’s craving a little one, Gwen’s slowing down, and apparently a diaper bag might be in her future.

-----

Drama in the Diddy courtroom: the jury has reached a partial verdict after 12 hours, locking in four outta five charges—sex trafficking and transporting for prostitution. But that last racketeering count? Still marinating in the baby oil. Meanwhile, Diddy got emotional, whispered “love you” to his mom, and gave her the ol’ chest thump. Somewhere, someone’s making this into a Lifetime movie.

J.Lo is sweating harder than me during allergy season. Rumor is Ben Affleck might air everything on a podcast with Matt Damon—including their messy breakup. Sources say Ben’s tired of false stories and may finally come out.  J.Lo’s nightmare? A “warts and all” tell-all. Honestly, if it’s called Good Will Dumping, I’m subscribing…immediately.

Welcome to The List,

Meghan Markle is reportedly seething after getting snubbed from Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s wedding. RadarOnline says she thinks she’s more famous than the Kardashians—meanwhile, Hollywood’s like “Who’s that again?” As for Harry? That royal-to-celeb glow-up? Yeah… .kinda..just…flatlined….

-----

Lucasfilm’s reportedly rebooting Indiana Jones now that Harrison Ford has officially hung up the fedora. The last flick lost $134 million—so naturally, it’s reboot time! Word is Chris Pratt might pick up the whip, because nothing says “iconic archaeologist” like Star-Lord in a leather vest.

-----

Luke Combs just dropped a “Get Ready With Me” video and it’s… pure gold. The man who wears the same black Columbia shirt to every show? Yeah, he dramatically debates between TWO identical ones. “This PFG… or this PFG?” Spoiler: he picks the PFG. His wife chimed in with “So over social media,” and Columbia themselves? “No bad decisions here.” Iconic.

-----

Zach Top has fans who are… thirsty. His girlfriend posted a video backstage like, “POV: I’m scanning for the wild signs you chicks are holding up.” And then she drops the mic with, “Y’all need some self-respect.” Whew! Zach’s out here belting country hits, and she’s out here taking names.

Welcome to The List,

99-year-old Dick Van Dyke had to skip a charity event this weekend—he wasn’t feeling great. But his wife said not to worry, it was just “a bad day.” Which, for 99, could mean he sneezed weird or misplaced his Werther’s Originals.

-----

Vin Diesel says Paul Walker’s character Brian O’Connor will appear in the final “Fast & Furious” movie. Yep—he’s been gone since 2013, but apparently in this franchise, physics and mortality are just mild suggestions.

-----

Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO saw a video of a homeless man and his grandson... and straight-up bought them a new home. A camper, actually. So yeah—some folks talk about being country strong, Jelly Roll out here living it.

-----

Luke Bryan told CMT he's on a mission to out-chart Blake Shelton. His words: “It is my quest.” Like he's Gandalf with a guitar. He even said, “I guess Blake has entered my realm of stardom.” That’s some spicy Southern sass right there.
