The List for Thursday, August 24th 2023

Welcome to The List,

Matthew McConaughey doesn’t smoke pot.  At least that’s the word from his wife Camila Alves.  She says, “I don’t think people actually [have] this image of Matthew “When we first started dating, it was this image of Matthew of getting high, laid back, no shirt, whatever.  Which, I’m like, ‘The guy doesn’t even smoke.  What is this vision coming from?’  Oh I don’t know Camila maybe it was his naked bongo-playing, pot-smoking arrest in 1999..

National Dog Day is Saturday.  So to get ready for the occasion, dog dad Chris Evans made a surprise visit to a shelter in New York City called Animal Haven to promote adoption. Chris gave the shelter dogs lots of treats from premium dog food brand Jinx . . . and also belly rubs. Watch a video of his visit at People.com.

Tim McGraw is a global superstar, but he’ll always be a Louisiana boy at heart.  I’m basing that on his favorite foods.  He told “ET Canada” that his go-to cheat meal is peas and cornbread, collard greens, pork chops, rice, and gravy.  When he reaches for something sweet, it might be Coca-Cola cake, or Cocoa Puffs.

TMZ says Kevin Hart recently injured himself in a race against former NFL player Stevan Ridley. “I’m in a wheelchair. Why? Well, because I tried to jump out there and do some young stuff. Me and Stevan, we got into a little debate. This debate was based off of who’s faster. We get out there. We go run the 40 yard dash. Tore my lower abdomen. My adductors are torn. I don’t even know what that is, but I tore them. I tore those too. I can’t walk.” Kevin calls himself the “stupidest man alive” for attempting the race.

Garth Brooks tells The Tennessean newspaper that he envisions his Friends in Low Places bar as “the Chick-Fil-A of honky-tonks.” “I want a thumping, crazy place where people feel good — but they’re also safe, loved, comfortable, and are treated well with good manners.” Still no word on when the grand opening will be..the website just says “opening soon”

A.V. CLUB says the Barbie movie will be released in IMAX theaters on September 22nd. The film will have brand new bonus footage and Page Six says Britney Spears recently got a new puppy named Snow.

The List for Thursday, February 19th 2026

Welcome to The List,

Travis Kelce is out here setting expectations so high the rest of us are gonna get yelled at for bringing home gas station flowers. He’s reportedly spent $141,000 on pre-wedding gifts for Taylor Swift, including Rolex watches, designer jackets, and daily flower deliveries. Daily. Meanwhile, I forgot my anniversary once and tried to fix it with a breakfast burrito. Travis Kelce just ruined relationships for every man in America.

Lainey Wilson is teasing new music, and the title might be the most Lainey Wilson thing ever. The new single is called “Can’t Sit Still,” which tracks, because she’s been everywhere except my back yard party. She says her friends describe her as “a suitcase with legs,” which honestly sounds like Delta Airlines lost her twice already. No official release date yet, but she says it’s coming “real soon,” so prepare your playlists accordingly.

-----

Bunnie XO just revealed she thought Jelly Roll was a jerk when they first met, which proves once again women love a fixer-upper. She said he had “teddy bear with teeth energy” and sad eyes, and she basically looked at him like a home improvement project from HGTV. Fast forward to now, they’re one of Country music’s biggest power couples. Moral of the story, sometimes the guy who ignores you becomes your husband.

-----

The new Mummy reboot is ditching the Tom Cruise action vibe and going straight for emotional damage. This one’s from the director of Evil Dead Rise, so instead of running from explosions, you’ll be running from your own nightmares. It’s about a girl who disappears and comes back after spending quality time inside a 3,000-year-old coffin. It hits theaters April 17th, and I’ll be watching it from the safety of daylight and denial.
