Welcome to The List,
This week we reported that Homer Simpson was no longer strangling Bart…Well, the story has an update . Maybe Homer Simpson isn’t going to stop strangling Bart after all . . . even though he claimed during a recent episode that, quote, “Times have changed.” The producers actually Tweeted a picture of Homer strangling Bart. The caption reads, quote, “Homer Simpson was unavailable for comment as he was busy strangling Bart.”

Morgan Wallen was up for several awards at Wednesday’s CMAs, and came up dry. But it sounds like he wanted to get ahead of any negativity because he posted this on Instagram Stories after the show. Quote, “Walked in tonight a winner, didn’t leave no different.”

Jared Leto became the first person to legally climb the Empire State Building yesterday. He went from the 86th floor to the base of the antenna at the top. He did it to promote the upcoming tour with his band 30 Seconds to Mars. If you have a tour coming up and you want to sell lots of tickets, there are a few different ways you can achieve that. The best one is to have songs that people will actually pay to hear you sing…or…you can climb the Empire State Building, I guess…

In theaters this weekend – “Crime 101”
Weaving a tale of an elusive thief whose high-stakes heists unfolding along the iconic 101 freeway have mystified police. When he eyes the score of a lifetime with hopes of this being his final job, his path collides with a disillusioned insurance broker who is facing her own crossroads, forcing the two to collaborate.

Welcome to The List,
Travis Kelce is out here setting expectations so high the rest of us are gonna get yelled at for bringing home gas station flowers. He’s reportedly spent $141,000 on pre-wedding gifts for Taylor Swift, including Rolex watches, designer jackets, and daily flower deliveries. Daily. Meanwhile, I forgot my anniversary once and tried to fix it with a breakfast burrito. Travis Kelce just ruined relationships for every man in America.

Lainey Wilson is teasing new music, and the title might be the most Lainey Wilson thing ever. The new single is called “Can’t Sit Still,” which tracks, because she’s been everywhere except my back yard party. She says her friends describe her as “a suitcase with legs,” which honestly sounds like Delta Airlines lost her twice already. No official release date yet, but she says it’s coming “real soon,” so prepare your playlists accordingly.

Bunnie XO just revealed she thought Jelly Roll was a jerk when they first met, which proves once again women love a fixer-upper. She said he had “teddy bear with teeth energy” and sad eyes, and she basically looked at him like a home improvement project from HGTV. Fast forward to now, they’re one of Country music’s biggest power couples. Moral of the story, sometimes the guy who ignores you becomes your husband.

The new Mummy reboot is ditching the Tom Cruise action vibe and going straight for emotional damage. This one’s from the director of Evil Dead Rise, so instead of running from explosions, you’ll be running from your own nightmares. It’s about a girl who disappears and comes back after spending quality time inside a 3,000-year-old coffin. It hits theaters April 17th, and I’ll be watching it from the safety of daylight and denial.
