Welcome to The List,
For those of you hoping to see Henry Cavill step into the role of James Bond, your fantasy has been fulfilled . . . well, kinda. He’s in a FAKE A.I. trailer on YouTube called “Bond 26”. It came out five days ago and as of last night, it’s already hit 2.4 million views. It shows Henry as 007 and Margot Robbie as a Bond girl. Even though there’s a disclaimer in the video’s description, some people were fooled by it. And many people in the comments are hoping it becomes a reality. The latest rumor is that Aaron Taylor-Johnson will be the next Bond. (You can check out the trailer here.)

If you didn’t know already, Katy Perry is leaving “American Idol” after this season.
Katy was asked who she’d like to see take her spot on the judge’s panel and Jelly Roll’s name immediately came to mind. She thinks it’s his ability to give constructive criticism in a kind way that would make him an awesome “Idol” judge. So, what do y’all think? Would Jelly be a good judge on “American Idol”? Or would we rather he just toured the whole year instead?

Mariska Hargitay got to help a child in real life, while filming “Law & Order: SVU” in Manhattan’s Fort Tryon Park last week. The little girl got separated from her mother, so she approached Mariska for help. She saw the badge on Mariska’s belt and thought she was a real police officer. Production was halted for about 20 minutes while Mariska helped the girl find her mom.

Morgan Wallen’s first show since his arrest is this Saturday at Ole Miss, and everyone online is offering organizers the same advice: “Bolt those chairs down!” I bet someone throws a chair onstage…wanna bet?

Do you remember who played the part of Marty McFly in the movie "Back To The Future"?
Welcome to The List,
Eric Dane, best known as McSteamy on Grey’s Anatomy, has passed away at 53 after battling ALS. He first revealed his diagnosis last April, but symptoms began earlier in 2024. His family says he spent his final days surrounded by his wife, daughters, and close friends, and he used his fight to raise awareness for ALS research.

William Shatner is officially going metal…because apparently retirement is for people without a spaceship. The 94 year old icon is releasing a heavy metal album featuring covers of Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, and Judas Priest, plus original songs with 35 metal legends. He says metal is where imagination gets loud, which explains a lot about Captain Kirk. There’s nothing more metal than a man eligible for social security since Nixon.

Jelly Roll is officially becoming a member of the Grand Ole Opry on March 10th, and Lainey Wilson will be there to welcome him in. He first found out back in December when Craig Morgan surprised him with the invitation, and now Craig will perform at the induction too. It’s one of country music’s highest honors, and proof that redemption stories hit harder than any guitar solo.

Kane Brown is the latest country star to plant his flag on Broadway in Nashville with his own entertainment venue. Kane Brown’s on Broadway will feature a full restaurant, bar, and live music, which basically guarantees fans will spend money while singing his songs badly. Every country star gets a bar eventually, it’s practically a rite of passage. At this point, Nashville Broadway is less a street and more a country music theme park.
