The List for Friday, April 15th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Actor Cuba Gooding Jr. pleaded guilty Wednesday to forcibly kissing a worker at a New York nightclub in 2018 in a deal that is likely to keep him out of jail.   Gooding also publicly apologized for the first time to two other women who accused him of similar behavior in separate encounters, calling himself a “celebrity figure” who meant no harm.  His admissions were part of a plea deal that came nearly three years after the Oscar-winning “Jerry Maguire” star was arrested in the case that saw several delays as his lawyers sought to get charges reduced or dismissed.

Walker Hayes tells ABC that his wife is the most important thing in his life. “Everywhere I go, my family goes with me. Every heartbreak I’ve ever endured, Laney, my wife, has felt it equally. When I read that moment that we had been nominated for a Grammy… that wasn’t a nomination for just me. In a very humble way, she would say she’s not surprised.  And all this time I thought he was trying to stay out of AA….

Cruising Tik Toc last night I came across a disturbing video.. Kevin Bacon was singing to his goats. Not just ONE but SEVERAL!!  He sings The Backstreet Boys’ Song ‘I Want It That Way’. What is it exactly that he WANTS  in that relationship…mutual respect or does he want to learn how to climb mountains.

Yesterday was LORETTA LYNN’s 90th birthday, and I’m sure one of the ways she celebrated was by watching a video that was posted on her Facebook page.  It featured a steady stream of country stars wishing her the best. Included are Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, Carrie Underwood, Alan Jackson . . . and Dolly Parton who sang “Happy Birthday”.  You can see the video below….

Josh Brolin this morning with Kelly And Ryan … Admits that he needs to get in shape for the upcoming “Dune” sequel. “I was with Javier at the Oscars, and Javier and I kind of like we just kinda showed each other our ponches.”  Remember when guys would just drink beer and compare lawns? The “Dune” sequel is due in theaters October of next year…

Tim McGraw has a unique way of starting his day….He says he starts his day with a jalapeño smoothie that is packed with  jalapeños, an avocado, ginger root, half a lemon, one apple, two cups of kale, and one cup of coconut water…Try coffee.. works for me…

The List for Friday, July 25th 2025

Welcome to The List,

So apparently, Sharon Osbourne wants to plant Ozzy in their English garden like a gothic tomato. A source says she might not be up for a huge public memorial just a quiet little backyard funeral. You know, next to the begonias and BBQ pit. Honestly, the man was the Prince of Darkness… seems fitting.

-----

Carrie Underwood’s eyeballing a return to American Idol AND trying to break into acting. Apparently, she’s got a taste for the Hollywood life now. Next stop: romantic comedies, action flicks, maybe a gritty cop drama. Carrie, blink twice if Ryan Seacrest is holding you hostage.

-----

‘Reacher’ star Alan Ritchson might be our next Batman! Director James Gunn says he’s a big fan, which is Hollywood speak for “we already bought the suit.” I mean, sure… he’s got the chin for it…and the attitude….the size…ok, I can see it…

-----

So this happened Hulk Hogan once appeared on Dolly Parton’s variety show… as a wrestler named Starlight Starbright. Dolly even sang, “He’s Got a Headlock on My Heart.” Somewhere out there, a bald eagle just shed a single tear of pure American pride.
