Dustin Lynch ALMOST wasn’t a country music star. He tells Entertainment Tonight he had a major in biology and chemistry and got into med school and told his parents he wanted to at least give music a legit shot before he went and chased that. They didn’t like it but it worked out.

Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson threatened the Cookie Monster yesterday after Elmo tweeted; ”Has anybody ever seen a rock eat a cookie? Elmo is just curious.”
The Rock responded …
Yes, my friend.
This Rock devours cookies.
All kinds of cookies
I’ll introduce you to #CheatMeals and it’ll change your life.
Tell Cookie Monster to move it over, cuz I’m coming to Sesame Street to kick a** and eat cookies.
And I’m almost all outta cookies.

Welcome to The List,
Hookup shows come and go. Paychecks apparently stay forever. Taylor Frankie Paul will still get her full Bachelorette salary. TMZ says the payday lands in the low to mid six figures. The season got shelved after that viral domestic violence video resurfaced. Reality TV motto. Love fades. Direct deposit survives.
-----
Some guys jog. Some guys apparently brawl with neighbors. “Reacher” star Alan Ritchson reportedly got into a physical altercation. Sources say intense behavior is kind of his brand at this point. He doesn’t think he crossed a line. Neither does the authorities,

Country star meets horsepower. This feels aggressively on brand. Darius Rucker is now a NASCAR Cup Series team owner. He invested in Legacy Motor Club which competes at the top level. From singing about wagons to literally owning fast cars. That is what we call career acceleration.
