Brett Young Jokes that may have gotten into the wrong career… “People were using both ‘In Case You Didn’t Know’ and ‘Lady’ as their first dance and father/daughter dance. And I’m going, ‘Am I in the wrong business? Should I just try to write like a full soundtrack for people’s weddings? Is that what we’re moving towards (laugh).’”

Prince William says he has one big regret in life. The Daily Mail quotes him as saying, ”I still wish I’d learned to breakdance. It’s one of my greatest regrets, not learning to breakdance when I was young.”

The List for Friday, February 20th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Eric Dane, best known as McSteamy on Grey’s Anatomy, has passed away at 53 after battling ALS. He first revealed his diagnosis last April, but symptoms began earlier in 2024. His family says he spent his final days surrounded by his wife, daughters, and close friends, and he used his fight to raise awareness for ALS research.

William Shatner is officially going metal…because apparently retirement is for people without a spaceship. The 94 year old icon is releasing a heavy metal album featuring covers of Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest, plus original songs with 35 metal legends. He says metal is where imagination gets loud, which explains a lot about Captain Kirk. There’s nothing more metal than a man eligible for social security since Nixon.

Jelly Roll is officially becoming a member of the Grand Ole Opry on March 10th, and Lainey Wilson will be there to welcome him in. He first found out back in December when Craig Morgan surprised him with the invitation, and now Craig will perform at the induction too. It’s one of country music’s highest honors, and proof that redemption stories hit harder than any guitar solo.

-----

Kane Brown is the latest country star to plant his flag on Broadway in Nashville with his own entertainment venue. Kane Brown’s on Broadway will feature a full restaurant, bar, and live music, which basically guarantees fans will spend money while singing his songs badly. Every country star gets a bar eventually, it’s practically a rite of passage. At this point, Nashville Broadway is less a street and more a country music theme park.
