Welcome to The List,
Jennifer Lawrence made a statement to “Variety” that she’s gonna need to backpedal on. It wasn’t really offensive or anything, but it was pretty dumb. In a new interview, she said nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie before “The Hunger Games”. Sigourney Weaver, Linda Hamilton, Angelina Jolie, Pam Grier, and many others would like to have a word with her.

Blake Shelton is the cover story of this week’s “People”. One interesting thing he talked about was how “The Voice” took a chance on him when he started on the show back in 2011. It was 10 years into his career as a country artist . . . and never really made it to the ‘A Level’ of country artist until becoming a coach on the show…Now, he’s looking at his last season on ‘The Voice’ and going forward…creating more music and gardening with Gwen.

Country Now took the guess work out of what you’ll be seeing on tonight’s “CMA Country Christmas”. They made a list of every song that will be performed, and I’m in for all of it. But if I had to pick the moment I’m looking forward to the most, I’d go with the Carly Pearce – Molly Tuttle bluegrass medley. The CMA Country Christmas airs tonight 8pm on ABC.

I can’t believe Hardy’s been hiding this from us since his wedding in October. The other day he shared a video of Ozzy Osbourne congratulating him and his wife Caleigh on their big day, and wishing them “a wonderful life together.” Ozzy also calls Hardy by his first name, Michael. I’d LIKE to play the audio for you…but…it’s Ozzy…so…you know…

The original “Avatar” will air on ABC on Sunday, just days before the sequel hits theaters. It’ll be the first time it’s ever been on broadcast TV AND it’s starting early, at 7pm, to fit in all three-thousand hours of blue people mayhem, with commercials. The broadcast is set to end at 10:30pm. Avatar: The Way of Water is in theaters December 15th.
