Welcome to The List,
Starting off with some good news, Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin is awake and he’s breathing on his own. His ventilator, has been removed and is able to talk. He even joined this mornings team meeting by FaceTime. The Doctors still have him in Intensive Care but say we know that it’s not only that the lights are on…but someone is home and that all cylinders are firing.

CNN says Gabrielle Union is under fire for a comment she recently made on the Armchair Expert podcast. She said because she was financially supporting her first husband, Chris Howard, she felt it was acceptable for her to cheat on him. I just felt entitled to it as well. I was paying all the bills. … Like my dad before me, whoever has the most gets to do whatever the hell they want.”

Luke Combs announced his fourth album, “Growin’ Up”, will come out March 24th. It’ll have 18 songs.

Mel Gibson may postpone making ”Lethal Weapon 5” in order to concentrate on a sequel to ”The Passion of the Christ”. That film earned $612 million on a $30 million budget. Mel could start shooting the movie as soon as June. I didn’t know you could HAVE a sequel to “The Passion of the Christ”.

Yellowstone actor Luke Grimes just celebrated a major moment on the show that fans might have missed. In Sunday’s episode of the Paramount Network neo-western drama, Grimes’ debut country single, “No Horse To Ride,” was featured. In a post on Instagram, Grimes shared a photo of his character, Kasey Dutton, and wrote in the caption, “Thanks for watching, and thanks [Yellowstone] for having my song in last night’s show. Means the world.”

Oh those sweet harmonies…..They’re a signature element of Midland’s sound, and while they make it look easy, bassist Cameron Duddy says it’s definitely a skill that takes work. But what happens when your voice just gives out? “Any normal person would be like, ‘Oh, I’m just not gonna sing. You know, I’ll just play bass. That’ll be fun.’ But so much of our sound evolves, and so much of my pleasure personally comes from the three part harmony, that to not do that would basically be like not playing bass, or having a missing instrument.”

Welcome to The List,
Will there be another Austin Powers? Rumors say Mike Myers is turning down massive offers to bring the franchise back. Sources claim he does not need the money, already made tens of millions, and still cashes in every Halloween. Apparently he is focused on dad life instead of shagadelic life. So no, baby… he is not desperate.

Cody Johnson just confirmed he and Luke Combs finally cut a song together. Fans have been waiting years for this bromance to hit the studio. They toured Australia and New Zealand together, and now the friendship is officially on vinyl. And that is not all. Cody also says there is a track with Brothers Osborne on the new album. That record is about to be stacked.

Ella Langley just hit number one on the all-genre Hot 100 with “Choosin’ Texas.”
That puts her in elite company with legends like Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Jeannie C. Riley, and Beyoncé. She is also reportedly the first female artist to hold number one on Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, and the Hot 100 at the same time. Released October 7th and it has been sprinting ever since. That is not just a hit. That is a takeover.

And speaking of Taylor Swift, betting sites say there is a 50 percent chance her childhood friend Abigail Anderson is Maid of Honor. They also give a 25 percent chance that Vera Wang designs the dress. We are now gambling on bridal parties. This wedding might need its own sportsbook. Only in 2026, folks.
