The List for Monday, December 15th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Legendary Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, were found dead at their Brentwood, Los Angeles home Sunday afternoon, and police are investigating it as an apparent double homicide. Investigators believe both suffered fatal stab wounds, and detectives from the LAPD’s Robbery Homicide Division are questioning a family member as part of the probe. Authorities have not yet publicly named a suspect. Reiner, 78, was known for classic films like When Harry Met Sally and The Princess Bride, and fans and public officials are mourning this loss as the investigation continues.

Ben Affleck is allegedly trapped in another holiday tug-of-war between Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner. According to insiders, this is basically last year on repeat. Ben wants to split time between both families in L.A., but J.Lo wants something bigger like flying everyone somewhere tropical for a full blended-family holiday reset. Garner, meanwhile, is standing firm and not changing her plans. Ben just wants turkey. Instead, he’s negotiating peace treaties.

Lainey Wilson is crossing over from country music to Monday Night Football tonight, joining Peyton and Eli on the Manningcast as the Steelers take on the Dolphins. And yes there’s a personal tie. Lainey’s fiancé is former Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges. So she’s got skin in the game, insider knowledge, and probably better fashion than both Mannings combined.

Jelly Roll told Complex magazine that at his heaviest weight, he truly believed he was only months away from death. He said traveling nearly 300 days a year at over 500 pounds made him feel like his body was shutting down. That realization changed everything. Now he’s set a bold new goal he wants to be on the cover of Men’s Health by March 2026. From survival mode to transformation arc… that’s one hell of a comeback story.
