Welcome to The List,
Football is right around the corner so… warm up those nachos because Carrie Underwood is back belting “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night” for lucky year thirteen. The new version kicks off September 7th when the Ravens tackle the Bills. Clear your throat, stretch your chips, and prepare to scream-sing along like it’s national cardio.

Ozzy Osbourne just flipped the script on funerals no sobbing backstabbers, just a full-throttle rock-n-roll revenge party. Marching band blasting “Crazy Train” through Birmingham, dark jokes louder than the hearse, and a firm “no fake tears” sign for anyone who crossed Sharon. Even Elton John showed up, probably wearing earplugs.

Miranda Lambert just clapped back at the internet gawking at her caboose. She posted a slow-mo strut video labeled, “Warned y’all ’bout my backyard swagger since 2014.” Basically saying: the view’s been scenic for a decade, folks kindly catch up, adjust your binoculars, and remember manners before ogling country royalty.

Tim McGraw just went full cue-ball chic buzzed off the cowboy locks and rolled out a sharp gray goatee. The Country Wire’s photos prove it: he’s serving “silver-fox bouncer at a honky-tonk spa.” Saddle up, shampoo budget; Tim’s new look could cut wind resistance and maybe your heart rate.

Welcome to The List,
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are allegedly hitting a rough patch not over romance, but over the prenup. An insider claims the financial talks are “cold-hearted,” mostly because their bank accounts look like they’re from two different planets. Travis wants to play another season or two and eventually jump into broadcasting, and apparently Taylor’s not thrilled with that plan. The source says there is supposed to be a wedding this offseason… but right now the negotiations look less like love and more like Shark Tank.

Willie Nelson is fed up with the internet declaring him dead every other week and he finally said something. He posted a photo of himself snoozing on a couch with the caption, “If you believe those A.I. death stories one more time.” For months, fake AI posts claimed he collapsed, was hospitalized, or worse. None of it true. Willie’s still here, still laughing, still alive… and more coherent than some of the people posting about him.

Diddy allegedly thinks someone in his own family sold him out after 50 Cent got access to leaked footage for the Netflix documentary ‘The Reckoning’. The footage shows him distressed on a phone call and Diddy is reportedly determined to figure out who leaked it. He believes only family had access to something that sensitive. And after watching parts of the doc myself? Yeah… “eye-opening” is putting it lightly. This story gets messier by the hour.

Luke Combs told ESPN he wants to headline the Super Bowl halftime show and watch his Carolina Panthers win that same game. Bold. Very bold. He said he grew up in Charlotte when the Panthers became a team, so it’s “in his blood.” Look, we love the confidence but asking for a halftime slot and a Panthers Super Bowl victory is what scientists call “a miracle.”
