The List for Monday, October 24th 2022

Welcome to The List,

The Zac Brown Band canceled their show in Vancouver, Canada Friday after some crew members were denied entry at the border.  It was NOT because of Covid. “We’re a family.  We stick together and support each other, and never leave anyone behind.  Apparently some of the crew had a record  decades ago that was cleared and that kept them from entering the country this time. The weird part is that the band has been performing regularly in Canada, including twice THIS year.

The NY Post says Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen have allegedly hired divorce attorneys and are now ready to fight. A source tells the newspaper,  “Things are very nasty between Tom and Gisele because of the lawyers. Tom and Gisele are not battling over the kids, they both want joint custody. But it will take some time to divide their  wealth and property all over the world…Meanwhile the Buccaneers LOST to the Carolina Panthers yesterday 21 to 3…

There may be several reasons why Blake Shelton decided that next season would be his last on “The Voice”.  But according to Radar.com, he did it because Gwen Stefani applied the pressure. “Gwen wants him to spend more time with her, so they can ensure a happy future together.” The insider said his busy schedule has been an issue since the couple got married.  They can’t even agree where to live.  They split time between Gwen’s home in Encino, California . . . or Blake’s ranch in Oklahoma.

Kenny Chesney was given an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters from his alma mater, East Tennessee State University.  He graduated back in 1990 and participated in their bluegrass program and studied advertising.   He credits the school’s music program for inspiring him to pursue country music as a career.  So, now we introduce him as Doctor Kenny Chesney….

Some quick movie news…The Rock’s“Black Adam” won the box office with a $67 million opening weekend. There’s a “The Conjuring 4” is in the works. Channing Tatum posted a picture of Salma Hayek  in “Magic Mike’s Last Dance”. The season finale of “House of the Dragon” leaked online Friday, ahead of its Sunday premiere on HBO.

Alec Baldwin marked the first anniversary of “Rust” cinematographer Halyna Hutchins’ death.  Poor taste? Maybe…the comments are somewhat mixed…more of what you would probably expect with one poster saying “Man you should turn the comments off this post.”

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.
