Welcome to The List,

Tom Bergeron is back, But not on the ballroom floor—he’s hosting Dancing with Sharks for Shark Week. Yes, real sharks. Yes, real dancing. No, this is not a fever dream. Expert divers will waltz underwater with actual sharks thanks to a world-class underwater choreographer. So basically… “So You Think You Can Swim.”

Morgan Wallen Dropped a 37-Song Album on Friday. It’s called I’m the Problem, which honestly sounds like a therapy breakthrough. It’s a double album, it’s country, it’s rap, it’s…controversial. Especially the rap cover of a Keith Whitley song—because nothing says “classic country” like autotune and a trap beat. Swifties are still mad. So, mission accomplished?

Sharpen your stakes and crank up the angst—the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" reboot is happening, and they've found a new young slayer to team up with Sarah Michelle Gellar. Yep, Buffy’s back, and apparently she’s mentoring now, which means this girl’s about to get a crash course in slaying and sarcasm. The Hellmouth won’t know what hit it... but probably still ends in a dramatic slow-motion fight scene.

So here’s something straight out of a murder ballad—human remains were found near Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island mansion. Yeah. Real ones. Police say no foul play is suspected, and Swift’s team hasn’t commented. So either it’s a tragic coincidence… or the Cruel Summer just got way darker. Either way, cue the eerie piano music.

Welcome to The List,

Well, this is unexpected. Steve Perry and Willie Nelson just teamed up to re-record Journey’s “Faithfully.” That’s right—two legends, one power ballad, and a whole lotta “What decade is it?” It’s all to celebrate 40 years of Farm Aid. So cry, sing, and hug a tractor. It’s what they would’ve wanted.

Hold my popcorn. Word is Blake Lively threatened to leak Taylor Swift’s private texts unless Tay backed her in a feud with Justin Baldoni. A source says Taylor is panicking, spiraling, and basically curled up in a pile of cardigans. Blake’s legal team? They say this is all a lie and quote, “untethered from reality.” Which ironically sounds like Taylor’s next album title.

Jelly Roll thought his criminal past might keep him from performing in the UK on Post Malone’s Big Butt—I mean Big [Beep] World Tour. But plot twist—he got the green light! That’s right, Jelly’s headed to England for the first time ever. Tottenham Stadium, get ready... America’s favorite reformed bad boy is bringin' the southern fried chaos overseas.

Prince Harry’s apparently put on a few... and Meghan Markle’s not having it. A source says she wants him off the chips and on the celery—less beer belly, more yoga mat. She hikes, she juices, she probably hasn’t had a carb since Suits. Meanwhile, Harry’s somewhere with a bag of crisps like, “What’s wrong with a little salt?” Oh, marriage.
