The List for Friday, September 10th 2021

Welcome to The List,

So, where were YOU when the world stopped turning…ME? I was in the Quad Cities working at a radio station watching Good Morning America when they broke in…

For Travis Denning…It was really scary  “My grandmother picked me up and took me to his house. As soon as he turned on the TV every channel had it on. And I’m like, my mom is in D.C. She’s at the Pentagon, and the Pentagon was attacked and we couldn’t get ahold of my mom. Y’ know, we couldn’t get ahold of her for a while, so…it’s weird. It’s still kinda like, makes me…Yeah, we get it…still hard to talk about…

And Alan Jackson THAT song…I remember watching him perform it on the CMA’s that year…“It was a tough performance for me. I hadn’t really sung the song much, first of all. It was just in the studio, basically, and when I wrote it…so it’s hard to go out there and sing something new anyway, and just the topic made it nerve-wracking, too. You know, I didn’t think about what was going to happen or anything – we just sang it. And I just remember, other than being relieved that I got through it, I just felt very proud that it seemed to cause a reaction in people…and I was proud that I got to do it, and that it seemed like it meant something.”  How he got through it I don’t know….

Tom Cruise resumed filming Mission Impossible 7 yesterday in London. The Daily Mail says he parachuted out of a helicopter and into a field. A car rushed to pick Tom up to take him to his next shooting location. Meanwhile Top Gun has been pushed back again to the spring…

We Got This Covered claims Scarlett Johansson is allegedly willing to settle her Black Widow lawsuit with Disney for $100 million. She is suing the house of mouse because they put her movie on Disney+ and THAT hurt her earnings, ScarJo was paid $20 million up front and could have made another $50 million had Black Widow been released exclusively in theaters.

The List for Tuesday, February 10th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Will there be another Austin Powers? Rumors say Mike Myers is turning down massive offers to bring the franchise back. Sources claim he does not need the money, already made tens of millions, and still cashes in every Halloween. Apparently he is focused on dad life instead of shagadelic life. So no, baby… he is not desperate.

-----

Cody Johnson just confirmed he and Luke Combs finally cut a song together. Fans have been waiting years for this bromance to hit the studio. They toured Australia and New Zealand together, and now the friendship is officially on vinyl. And that is not all. Cody also says there is a track with Brothers Osborne on the new album. That record is about to be stacked.

-----

Ella Langley just hit number one on the all-genre Hot 100 with “Choosin’ Texas.”

That puts her in elite company with legends like Dolly Parton, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, Kacey Musgraves, Jeannie C. Riley, and Beyoncé. She is also reportedly the first female artist to hold number one on Hot Country Songs, Country Airplay, and the Hot 100 at the same time. Released October 7th and it has been sprinting ever since. That is not just a hit. That is a takeover.

-----

And speaking of Taylor Swift, betting sites say there is a 50 percent chance her childhood friend Abigail Anderson is Maid of Honor. They also give a 25 percent chance that Vera Wang designs the dress. We are now gambling on bridal parties. This wedding might need its own sportsbook. Only in 2026, folks.
