Welcome to The List,
Mother’s Day is this Sunday….we’re all grateful for the things we learned from her…Ingrid Andress says she Inherited Her Mother’s Work Ethic … “My mom has an incredible work ethic, and she raised five kids. And I definitely use that to this day. I don’t have kids, but I feel like the music industry is difficult and takes a lot of work, and she definitely inspired me to work really hard.”

Amber Heard continued her testimony about Johnny Depp’s alleged abuse yesterday, while Johnny’s people say she’s giving the performance of her life. The trial is on recess until May 16th.

Will Smith is a guest star on an upcoming episode of David Letterman’s Netflix talk show, “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction”. But it was recorded BEFORE the Oscars, so there will be no mention of THE SLAP….so I guess Letterman won’t be wearing a catcher’s mask…

Shania Twain says she’s Is Proud To Be A Parent … “It’s such a joy to be a parent. So, I relate to all the mums out there who are getting all their love and appreciation from their kids, and I hope, when you’re a kid, a child of somebody, show your mum you love her, because it means everything.” Celebrate mom this Sunday because she deserves it.

The premiere for “Top Gun: Maverick” was shown on board the U.S.S. Midway an Aircraft Carrier in San Diego…Tom Cruise arrived by Flying himself in on a helicopter and getting out like a sharped dressed man…as Tom Cruise would do. Top Gun: Maverick (which also stars Jon Hamm, Jennifer Connelly, and Miles Teller) arrives in U.S. theaters on May 27.

Blake Shelton and Carson Daly are creating a new game show for the USA Network called ”Barmageddon.” Nikki Bella will host the show from Blake’s Nashville bar. Celebrities will play games against one another at the bar. And Dolly Parton tells Billboard magazine that she wants Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones to be her backing band if she records a rock album. I might get some different rock bands, some of the classic bands, to back me on some of the songs I do and then do two or three or four originals.

Welcome to The List,
Shaboozey tells People magazine that his Nigerian parents shaped his hustle. His dad worked menial jobs in the U.S. after hardships in Africa, and his mom—who wasn't a fan of his music dream—now joins him onstage. From skeptical to stage mom? That’s a full-circle flex.

Rachel Brosnahan found out she was playing Lois Lane… in a public bathroom. She got a call from “Maybe James Gunn”—and prayed a toilet didn’t flush during the big moment. Honestly? That’s the most relatable superhero origin story I’ve ever heard.
-----
Allegedly, Kim Kardashian felt overshadowed by Sydney Sweeney at Jeff Bezos’ wedding—like invisible-level ignored. She had her eyes on Tom Brady, but he only had eyes for Sydney. Now Kim’s spiraling, thinking four kids and a 40-something birthday might be killing her ‘It Girl’ vibe. Spoiler: it’s not the kids, Kim.
-----
Dolly Parton is out here defying the laws of music and gravity—she just dropped a duet with Motley Crue. Yeah, THAT Motley Crue. They re-did “Home Sweet Home” for its 40th anniversary, and boom—it’s now #1 on the Classic Rock chart. Dolly said country roads? Nah, we’re taking the rock highway now!
