Welcome to The List,
Zach Top just confessed in Billboard that he used to dream of being a cowboy… until he realized he was terrible at being one. Like, no rope skills, no yee, no haw. So instead, he grabbed a guitar and decided to sing about cowboys instead. Honestly, that’s the country version of “fake it till you make it.”

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are getting married in Venice, Italy—and when billionaires throw a wedding, they don’t just rent a ballroom... they buy the whole ZIP code. A source says the wedding's gonna cost 800 MILLION dollars. That’s not a wedding, that’s the Marvel Cinematic Universe of matrimony. Oprah and DiCaprio are on the guest list. Bezos is walking down the aisle, and the economy is walking off a cliff.
-----
Ben Affleck says his kids have to get jobs. Why? Because one of ‘em asked for a pair of $6,000 sneakers. And Ben was like, “Nah, bro. You want kicks that cost more than my back tattoo? Get a W-2.” Honestly, imagine telling your 10-year-old, “Here’s your lunchbox and your LinkedIn password.”

Country singer Riley Green says he’s been auditioning lately and might try his hand at acting. Which makes sense. He already has that whole “guy who walks into a bar in a Hallmark movie and changes your life” look. If he pulls this off, he’ll be the first country star to go from singing about heartbreak to pretending to be heartbroken… professionally!

Welcome to The List,
The Academy just dropped a new rule: if you’re voting for the Oscars, you actually have to watch all the nominated films in a category. I know—wild concept, right? Also, A.I. won’t help or hurt a movie’s chances, so Hollywood robots are still unemployed. Sorry, R2-D2, maybe next year.
-----
Dolly Parton says when she stays in California, she sleeps in full makeup—because you never know when an earthquake might send you running outside! Now that’s commitment. Meanwhile, I’m over here hoping my pajamas don’t have a hole in them if the fire alarm goes off.
-----
Lainey Wilson and her fiancé Duck Hodges went turkey hunting—and I swear that man was born to be in a camo calendar. Lainey said they've been stalking one big ol’ gobbler for a week. Sounds like Thanksgiving is about to get real personal.
-----
George Clooney says in ten years of marriage, he and Amal have never had a single argument. Not one! Clooney says he hit the jackpot—I say that jackpot must also come with a mute button.

Welcome to The List,
Eric Church ain’t just strumming guitars—he’s breaking ground! His nonprofit just kicked off their first housing project ever in North Carolina, and he's calling it a “lifeline.” Basically: Eric’s out here building more than just houses—he’s laying down heart and soul, hammer in hand. Move over HGTV, Church is coming in hot!
-----
Ella Langley just showed up and chose violence—with eight ACM noms to her name! Right behind her? Cody Johnson, Morgan Wallen, and Lainey Wilson with seven each. Oh, and Reba’s hosting, so you know we’re gettin’ sass, sparkle, and possibly a rhinestone mic drop. May 8 on Prime Video—yeehaw, y’all!
-----
Chris Rock is not laughing—again. Word is, he’s ticked at Will Smith for milking that Oscars slap in his new music. Chris says Will’s still “arrogant and self-serving.” Honestly? Hard agree. Will’s trying to rebrand like we forgot—but we remember, sir. We remember.
----
Ryan Coogler is on fire right now—his horror-musical Sinners just crushed the box office, and next up? A reboot of The X-Files! He says it’s “immediately next” on his to-do list and yes—he’s already talked to the iconic Gillian Anderson. Quote: “She’s incredible. Fingers crossed.” He promises it’ll be “really friggin’ scary” and made “for the real X-Files fans—and maybe some new ones.
