The List for Friday, April 4th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Will Smith is trying to make a rap comeback, but hip-hop fans aren’t exactly getting jiggy with it. A source says he’s basically a senior citizen now, and today’s rap crowd just doesn’t think he’s relevant. So, Will is testing the waters overseas before hitting the U.S. Translation? If it flops in Europe, he can just pretend it never happened. Honestly, if anyone can make “Grandpa Rap” a thing, it’s probably Will Smith.

Morgan Wallen was on Theo Von’s podcast, and things got real when they started talking about bars. Morgan admitted he hasn’t stepped foot in one since… well, the last time—and let’s just say, we all remember how that went. Now, whether that’s a personal choice or a strong legal recommendation is up for debate. But hey, at least he knows when to walk away… even if it took a few tries.

Lainey Wilson has spent her entire life working on music, but what made her really blow up? Her butt. Seriously, she went viral on TikTok because of her curves—not her chords. She says at first, she thought it was funny, but then she realized people just wouldn’t stop talking about it. Lesson learned? Never read the comments. Unless, of course, they’re all raving about your rear end—then maybe just skim them.

Details about Val Kilmer’s health in his final days have been released.  He was bed-bound due to a lack of energy from his cancer treatments. Val’s declining health led to his body being unable to fight and him passing at age 65 after battling pneumonia.  Val, known for his intense method acting techniques, filled his bed with ice while filming ’Tombstone’ to mimic the feeling of dying from tuberculosis.

The List for Thursday, December 4th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are allegedly hitting a rough patch not over romance, but over the prenup. An insider claims the financial talks are “cold-hearted,” mostly because their bank accounts look like they’re from two different planets. Travis wants to play another season or two and eventually jump into broadcasting, and apparently Taylor’s not thrilled with that plan. The source says there is supposed to be a wedding this offseason… but right now the negotiations look less like love and more like Shark Tank.

Willie Nelson is fed up with the internet declaring him dead every other week and he finally said something. He posted a photo of himself snoozing on a couch with the caption, “If you believe those A.I. death stories one more time.” For months, fake AI posts claimed he collapsed, was hospitalized, or worse. None of it true. Willie’s still here, still laughing, still alive… and more coherent than some of the people posting about him.

-----

Diddy allegedly thinks someone in his own family sold him out after 50 Cent got access to leaked footage for the Netflix documentary ‘The Reckoning’. The footage shows him distressed on a phone call and Diddy is reportedly determined to figure out who leaked it. He believes only family had access to something that sensitive. And after watching parts of the doc myself? Yeah… “eye-opening” is putting it lightly. This story gets messier by the hour.

-----

Luke Combs told ESPN he wants to headline the Super Bowl halftime show and watch his Carolina Panthers win that same game. Bold. Very bold. He said he grew up in Charlotte when the Panthers became a team, so it’s “in his blood.” Look, we love the confidence but asking for a halftime slot and a Panthers Super Bowl victory is what scientists call “a miracle.”
