The List for Friday, May 23rd 2025

Welcome to The List,

Taylor Swift allegedly regrets ever meeting Blake Lively—ouch. Word is, Tay’s done playing nice now that Blake’s dragged her into this Justin Baldoni lawsuit mess. Apparently, she and Travis think Blake and Ryan tried to use her in their drama. Taylor saw the red flags and said, “BYE bestie,” like it was a bad sequel to It Ends With Us. Savage.

Jennifer Lopez allegedly wants a Regular Joe after divorcing Ben Affleck. Like, a blue-collar guy who’s “secure in himself.” Awww. So basically, she’s looking for someone who owns a lunchbox and doesn’t have a Hollywood ego? That’s cute. But real talk… was Ben the diva in this relationship? ‘Cause this sounds like she’s throwing some serious construction-site shade.

Morgan Wallen’s grandma—Mamaw Kay—is the real star now. She says Morgan still won’t cuss in front of her, she calls him Mogi (adorable), and his fave dish is her corn. But best part? She claims Morgan got his crazy from HER side of the family. So if Mogi ever flips a stage or dates another pop star, blame Mamaw Kay and her spicy corn casserole.

Kenny Chesney played The Sphere in Vegas—it’s a residency and yes, it’s a huge deal. He was just chillin’ at a Jimmy Buffett tribute show when a buddy told him, “You should be the first country act at the Sphere.” And Kenny was like, “Heck yeah!” Now he’s bringing all the beachy vibes, heartbreak hits, and probably a truckload of tequila to the most high-tech venue on Earth.

The List for Monday, June 9th 2025

Welcome to The List,

The country music petty parade rolls on! Back in 2006, Rascal Flatts booted a young, late-running Eric Church off their tour—scandal!—and guess who replaced him? Taylor Swift! Fast forward to 2023, they’re STILL feuding. Rascal Flatts just threw more shade at Eric… from his own bar. That’s like showing up to someone’s house and insulting their couch. Gary said Eric "couldn't afford a watch"—then broke into Frozen. Can someone please ring Dana White? I smell a "Celebrity Cage Match."

-----

Lainey Wilson just finished her first feature film and—shocker—she wasn’t even nervous. She says it’s probably her mama’s prayers… or maybe it’s just that country queen confidence. She’s starring in “Reminders of Him,” out Valentine’s Day 2026. So go ahead and pencil in your tear-jerking, boot-stomping movie night. And Hollywood? Better get her a Walk of Fame star made of rhinestones.

-----

Apparently, Carrie Underwood’s ready to ditch American Idol unless they start handing out pay raises and peace offerings. She’s not used to fan backlash and—oops—it hurt her feelings. The show wants her to grow into the role, but Carrie’s like, “Pay me or lose me.” The drama’s messier than a mascara meltdown in the rain. Careful Carrie, America loves you… until you ask for more money.

-----

Cue the theme music and your credit card limit—props from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade are hitting the auction block! A fedora, whip, and belt? Going for half a mil! You too can own the tools of archaeology and accidental face-melting. The 8-foot whip even has a tag from a key scene—which means for $500K, you’re basically buying sweat-soaked movie history. Good luck explaining that to your accountant.
