Is a top 20 hit for Carly and Ashley…

Mark your calendars and dust off your boots — Cody Johnson is closing out the 2026 Houston Rodeo with a full-on, concert-only performance March 22nd. That makes him the 21st star entertainer in Rodeo history and only the second to get his own solo show after King George Strait. Translation: He's that big of a deal!!

Parker McCollum got raw and real with Bunnie XO on her Dumb Blonde podcast, talking road life, growth, and his biggest green flag: he's chill. Invite him to a party? Cool. Don’t? Still cool. Red flag? He admits he’s kinda inconsistent and might keep repeating mistakes. Basically, he’s every woman’s emotionally unavailable dreamboat — with a six-pack and a guitar.

Word on the street is Meghan Markle’s been flooding Jennifer Aniston with gifts and invites like she’s auditioning for Friends: Montecito Edition. Jen just moved to the neighborhood and apparently Meghan sees this as her golden shot — but Jen’s like, “Hard pass.” Sources say she’s quietly trashing the gifts and dodging every invite. No podcast, no playdates, no jam. Jen said, “I’ll take the quiet life — hold the royal drama.”

Tom Cruise’s daughter Suri is allegedly being offered $5 million to spill the tea in a memoir—because nothing says "coming of age" like cashing in on childhood trauma. A source says they want truth, trauma, and tabloid gold—so basically, a Kardashian starter pack. But Suri? She’s unbothered, moisturized, living her best quiet life. Not chasing fame—just finding herself. But if she does talk? Buckle up, Hollywood. The Scientology sirens might just explode.
