The List for Monday, April 20th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Taylor Swift is apparently saying “hard pass” to walking down the aisle in a bulletproof vest. Sources say security suggested it, she said absolutely not, because she wants to feel like a bride, not like she’s starring in an action movie. romance in 2026 is like, “Do you take this man… also take cover!

Lainey Wilson says her fiancé Duck Hodges might use ChatGPT to write his wedding vows. She’s over here pouring her heart out in rhyme, and he’s like, “Hang on babe, let me prompt this real quick.” If it makes him cry and keeps it simple, that might be the most modern love story ever told.

Tom Cruise is lining up a cool $135 million for Top Gun 3, plus a slice of the profits. The movie isn’t even out until 2028 and it’s already making more money than my retirement plan. At this point, Maverick isn’t a character, it’s just Tom negotiating his own paycheck.

Riley Green says he wants to keep acting after his role in “Marshals.” He’s basically like, “Yeah, I sing, I tour, I act… what else can I casually be good at?” Somewhere, the rest of us are just trying to figure out how to fold a fitted sheet without crying.

The List for Monday, May 4th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Darth Vader just Force-choked his way to the top spot. It’s Star Wars Day, and a new list crowned him number one. Han Solo slides into second, Leia takes third, rebellion stays strong. Meanwhile, Yoda’s somewhere judging your life choices in silence. May the Fourth be with your bad decisions today.

-----

Charlize Theron just laid down the ultimate parenting reality check. She says her daughters will earn their own money, no shortcuts. And their first cars? Old-school Datsuns, because crashes are coming. Which is bold, considering Datsun hasn’t been a thing in years. Nothing builds character like a car you can’t Google.

-----

Tucker Wetmore just had a full “main character” moment overseas. He wins New Male Artist of the Year at the ACM Awards. Then, his mom walks onstage in London with the trophy. Thomas Rhett pops up on video like it’s a country music Avengers scene. Nothing says you made it like mom showing up internationally.

-----

Somewhere out there, confidence is doing a little too much. A woman says she’s marrying Riley Green, no doubts at all. Claims they met on Facebook and even talked on the phone. Yeah… so has half the internet and a guy named “Steve.” Love is blind, but this one might need Wi-Fi verification.
