Welcome to The List,
John Osborne from Brothers Osborne just shared a voicemail from his own mom… saying Zach Top has replaced them as her favorite. And honestly? Same, Mama. Everybody loves Zach Top. But still if you can’t depend on Mama… WHO can you depend on?!

Al Pacino...yes, 85-year-old Al Pacino is reportedly on the hunt for someone “young and sexy” after splitting with his baby mama. A source says he’s “shooting for the moon,” which is adorable… and slightly terrifying. But hey, the man’s still got charm, charisma… and apparently, a really strong telescope.

Jelly Roll says he’s dropping another hundred pounds before skydiving in Sweden with his wife, Bunnie Xo. He’s already lost a ton and says he feels amazing but he’s chasing those “imagine how great I’ll feel THEN” vibes. Jelly, just make sure you lose the weight before you lose the parachute.

The search is on for the next four-legged superstar in Air Bud Returns! They’re looking for a golden retriever, so if your dog can act, dunk, and maybe do its own taxes, you could be sitting on Hollywood gold.

Welcome to The List,
Jelly Roll just gave the Tennessee Titans a pep talk before their big road trip and THEN casually dropped that he's lost 200 pounds! He says if he drops another 50, he wants an NFL contract. Forget tight end, this guy’s about to be the first Country music star turned-linebacker!
-----
Luke Combs is thinking of letting you pick the songs on his next album! He said he might upload a bunch of demos and let the fans decide what makes the cut. So basically, we’re all producers now. Someone hand me a Grammy already!
-----
A trailer just dropped for the new Office spin-off, “The Paper.” And yes Oscar Martinez is back! It hits Peacock September 4th. Let’s hope it’s more laughs at work and less paper cuts and HR complaints.

Someone asked: “You’ve got a 12-hour road trip and can only listen to ONE singer. Who is it?” The top picks? David Bowie… Paul McCartney… Chris Cornell… and of course, the king of chaos himself Weird Al. less of a playlist and more of a fever dream!

Welcome to The List,
In a desperate bid to stay relevant, Blake Lively is reportedly terrified she’s about to become the next track on Taylor Swift’s breakup album and not the love song kind. Sources say their friendship fizzled after Blake’s legal mess with Justin Baldoni… and now Taylor’s ghosting her! Blake’s smart enough to know when Swift goes silent, a savage rhyme is on the way.

MTV just remembered country music exists! They've slapped a shiny new “Country Category” on the VMAs, and the nominees are stacked: Chris Stapleton, Cody Johnson, Carrie Underwood, Jelly Roll, Lainey Wilson, Megan Moroney, and Morgan Wallen. Took ‘em long enough… but hey, we’ll take the boots on the moonwalk!

Post Malone’s stalker is back for the fifth time. Cherish Gomer, clearly not cherishing boundaries, was arrested after literally jumping in front of Posty’s car like it was the final scene of a rom-com. His driver had to swerve just to avoid turning her into roadkill. Someone get this girl a restraining order and a therapist!
-----
In the most Ozzy Osbourne thing ever… the flowers fans are leaving at his memorial in Birmingham? Yeah, those are gonna be mulched and scattered by his future gravesite. It’s giving “ashes to ashes, petals to compost.” Honestly, it’s poetic... and so metal.
