Welcome to The List,
Believe it or not, Samuel L. Jackson has only been nominated for an Oscar ONCE . . . Best Supporting Actor for “Pulp Fiction” in the ’90s. But he didn’t win.. In an interview with the AP, Samuel says the Oscars are strange . . . because it’s like “a contest that you didn’t volunteer to be in.” adding, “Folks will go, ‘Well, it’s just an honor to be nominated.’ No it ain’t. It’s an honor to WIN. You get nominated . . . and most people forget.”

It’s being reported that Taylor Swift is changing her approach to her romance with Travis Kelce. And really making a conscious effort to go with the flow a lot more now and let her hair down. When they first got together, she was a lot more focused on the timing of everything, now she just wants to take the shackles off and let people judge them based on what comes naturally.

Keith Urban now owns Waylon Jennings’ iconic 1950 Broadcaster guitar. It was given to a session player who toured with The Highwaymen in the ’90s, and then he put it up for auction. Keith said the reason Waylon gave it away in the first place was, quote, “It was too [effing] heavy.”

More tributes are rolling in for Ozzy Osbourne... from Kermit the Frog, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Wolfgang Van Halen, Major League Baseball, and—because why not—the New England Patriots. Ozzy once said his family could play anything at his funeral... even Justin Bieber or Susan Boyle. Rock on, Prince of Darkness.

Jake Owen says a random guy at Starbucks yelled at him for driving a Cybertruck. Called him a traitor! Like Jake just switched sides in a war or something. He’s just trying to get a latte, bro. Apparently, you can’t even be eco-conscious without catching hands now. Humanity's doin’ great.

Eric Church says his days off are all about the outdoors. Fishing, golf, just soaking in nature. He’s got two kids, and his idea of heaven is taking his son fishing. Meanwhile, the rest of us are inside praying for a nap and Wi-Fi. Must be nice, Eric. Must. Be. Nice.
