Welcome to The List,
Lainey Wilson straight-up mopped the floor at the ACM Awards last night—she snagged Entertainer of the Year, Female Artist, Artist-Songwriter, AND Album of the Year for Whirlwind. Meanwhile, Chris Stapleton took Male Artist of the Year… somehow beating out Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs, and Jelly Roll. I guess he had a better year they did…man! That beard strength counts for something.

Hollywood has spoken—and the most inspirational movie mom is… Elastigirl. That’s right, a stretchy superhero mom beat out Molly Weasley and Forrest Gump’s mama. Honestly? She did fight crime, raise kids, and still kept her ponytail tight. Respect.

Jennifer Aniston is ticked off at the LAPD—after her house location leaked following an intruder scare. Now she’s thinking about selling her $21 million mansion. Because clearly, creepy stalkers needed help finding her place. Great job, guys. Gold star.

LeAnn Rimes and Kimberly Williams-Paisley are heading to TV, joining Chris O’Donnell in ABC’s 9-1-1: Nashville. Which sounds like country music meets emergency sirens.

Welcome to The List,
Well, this is unexpected. Steve Perry and Willie Nelson just teamed up to re-record Journey’s “Faithfully.” That’s right—two legends, one power ballad, and a whole lotta “What decade is it?” It’s all to celebrate 40 years of Farm Aid. So cry, sing, and hug a tractor. It’s what they would’ve wanted.

Hold my popcorn. Word is Blake Lively threatened to leak Taylor Swift’s private texts unless Tay backed her in a feud with Justin Baldoni. A source says Taylor is panicking, spiraling, and basically curled up in a pile of cardigans. Blake’s legal team? They say this is all a lie and quote, “untethered from reality.” Which ironically sounds like Taylor’s next album title.

Jelly Roll thought his criminal past might keep him from performing in the UK on Post Malone’s Big Butt—I mean Big [Beep] World Tour. But plot twist—he got the green light! That’s right, Jelly’s headed to England for the first time ever. Tottenham Stadium, get ready... America’s favorite reformed bad boy is bringin' the southern fried chaos overseas.

Prince Harry’s apparently put on a few... and Meghan Markle’s not having it. A source says she wants him off the chips and on the celery—less beer belly, more yoga mat. She hikes, she juices, she probably hasn’t had a carb since Suits. Meanwhile, Harry’s somewhere with a bag of crisps like, “What’s wrong with a little salt?” Oh, marriage.
