Welcome to The List,
Jelly Roll just shocked America more than a surprise IRS letter. The man shaved his beard for the first time in a decade. Gone. Poof. Turns out underneath all that fluff was an actual jawline. Who knew? Fans and family reacted like he announced he was joining *NSYNC. Jelly joked he might need a face lift.

Well, apparently Sean “Diddy” Combs has decided prison is the perfect place to write his memoir. Because why not? A source says he’s not journaling feelings, he’s “strategizing,” which sounds exactly like something someone in prison would say. He’s ready to settle scores with all the A-listers who used his parties but disappeared when the feds rolled in. Basically, it’s the Hollywood version of “you stopped inviting me to your birthday, now I’m telling everyone your secrets.”

Tom Cruise finally got an Oscar. Yes, after four decades of sprinting, jumping off cliffs, hanging off airplanes, and saving Hollywood more times than popcorn, the man finally has a trophy. And not even for a movie. They handed him a lifetime-achievement award… basically the Academy’s way of saying, “Sorry we ignored you for 40 years, please stop doing your own stunts.” Cruise said making movies is “who I am,” which is rich coming from the guy who hasn’t aged since the Clinton administration.

Sony is making a Labubu movie. Yep. The creepy-cute little goblin-gremlin-doll thing your kid probably screamed for at Christmas is getting its own feature film. Nobody knows if it’ll be live-action or animated but brace yourself either way. Because nothing says “Hollywood is out of ideas” like giving a toy with a jump-scare face a movie deal.

AT THE MOVIES...Thursday’s at 5:40, brought to you by North Grand Cinema in Ames and IBC KIX 101.1….

Welcome to The List…
Hollywood’s biggest fear is officially here. Dead actors… still booking roles. A new movie is using A.I. to bring Val Kilmer back. Yeah. From the grave… straight to the premiere. The director says Val wanted this. His family signed off too. Which is great… until your Netflix suggestions start haunting you. Somewhere an Oscar just felt uncomfortable.

Tom Brady says he wears a disguise to his kids’ games. Not kidding. Hoodie. Hat. Full undercover quarterback mode. Apparently the kids don’t want attention on them because… you know… their dad is TOM BRADY. Imagine trying to sneak into a gym when you’re built like a superhero statue. Sir… we still know it’s you.

Rumor is Keith Urban might be going through a midlife crisis after the split. Sources say he wants to live the single life again. Totally different person now. Which honestly just sounds like every guy who suddenly discovers energy drinks and fitted jeans. Next step is obvious. Corvette. New Balance. Bluetooth headset.

Kenny Chesney just launched his own record label. Big move. Real boss energy. It’s named after his boat… because of course it is. And the first artist he signed…drumroll… Kenny Chesney. Man skipped the middleman and hired himself. HR meeting must be real smooth.
