The List for Thursday, April 15th 2021

Welcome to The List,

Award season is in the air and everyone is talking about the ACM Awards…Looking forward to some exciting performances, history making events and Eric Church, he’s going as the reigning CMA Entertainer of the year “I felt a responsibility, I know what that award means to the format; I know what that means historically, and I tried to live up to that. That nomination means more to me now than it probably ever has, because we’ve won. ”

Carly Pearce is nominated for the ACM  Female Artist of the Year Award…and she talks about her feelings on it. “I think about the dreams that I’ve had of being nominated in this category. I think as a woman in country music, if you grew up the way that I did, wanting this so badly, you dreamt of your name being called in that. And so I truly am not just saying this. I feel like I’ve already won just being in those five.” The ACM Awards air this Sunday on CBS

Kyra Sedgwick says her husband Kevin Bacon is so handy around the house..so, why not ask him to help with a bikini wax… “There was a moment were I thought, I can’t pull the strip off, neither one of us could figure out how to pull it off do we need to go to the hospital.  I didn’t have to luckily, just the 1..2..3..and hope for the best.” If it involves a car, boat, the lawn or hammering a nail…were fine ladies…but nothing to do with hot wax please.

On Monday night’s episode of American Idol, viewers were shocked to learn that Wyatt Pike dropped out of the competition after making it into the Top 16. Host Ryan Seacrest announced the news on the broadcast, but he did not reveal any details about Pike’s sudden departure. As Deadline noted, Pike has since spoken out about the reason behind his American Idol exit on his Instagram saying only that he left for “personal reasons”

The List for Thursday, March 19th 2026

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.
