The List for Thursday, February 6th 2025

Welcome to The List,

The stunt that Kanye West and his wife pulled on the red carpet at the Grammy’s has struck a nerve with EX-wife Kim Kardashian…she’s “allegedly alarmed” by what they did.  She’s afraid of how this will affect her children.

The List for Wednesday, February 5th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Super Bowl ads released yesterday include Matthew McConaughey and an all-star cast for Uber Eats, Paris Hilton shilling Frank's Red Hot, and Matt Damon playing David Beckham's long-lost brother.  I remember when you had to wait UNITL the Superbowl to see all the commercials.  I guess they’re betting viewership will be down, better get them out now!

Eric Church played in the Pebble Beach Pro-Am this weekend and finished middle-of-the-pack.  So, not too bad.  But the shot that's going viral was when he almost HIT former NBA player Pau Gasol with his ball.  Eric joked, "If you can't beat 'em, kill 'em."

In Touch Weekly says Kevin Costner has allegedly been inspired by Jennifer Lopez to get in shape and bring back his heartthrob status.  Kevin is 70…good luck Kevin….

With all the talk about the Grammy awards…even bigger conversations are being had about the red carpet.  Specifically, Kanye West’s wife, Bianca Censori, and her see-through dress.  She could face jail time for wearing it.  The Daily Mail says calls are being made to ban Kanye West and Bianca Censori from all red carpets after their nude stunt at the Grammys.  The shocking red carpet moment cost Kanye a $20 million deal in Japan. If you haven’t seen it…it’s not for children…and children from the Make A Wish foundation were there…for the whole thing…

Still no word on when Morgan Wallen's new album "I'm the Problem" will drop.  But it looks like it'll be a big one in more ways than one.  He posted a photo to his Instagram Stories that suggests it'll be another DOUBLE album.
