Kix Klash Re-Hash Sarah vs Johnny Friday December 19th
Name the Country Music Super star who first recorded "Christmas Cookies"?
Welcome to The List,
Let’s start off by congratulating the latest member of the Grand Ole Opry..Carly Pearce. AND she was inducted by her idol Dolly Parton. “They told me that you have been on the Grand Ole Opry 80 times? You’ve performed? Well, you should be a member! Well, I came here to tell you, that you are now an official member of the Grand Ole Opry.” Carly thought she was going to do a promo for Dollywood theme park where she cut her teeth as a teenage performer.
Here’s something I did not know…Chase Rice told Billboard magazine that he used to work as a member of Jimmie Johnson’s NASCAR pit crew…adding it was exciting but he was miserable because all he wanted to do was write songs.
Britney Spears went before a judge in Los Angeles yesterday in an attempt to have her conservatorship ended. She said she can’t get married or have more kids because of the conservatorship…She’s ready to sue her family after 13 years of not having her own money and freedom to live her life.
Matthew McConaughey still mulling over running for Governor of Texas…but what do Texans think about it…well, a new poll reveals that 41% would like to see him run! With a “favorable” rating of 42% but many are not convinced 47% say nah, he should stick to acting. Just think if The Rock ran for president and McConaughey was governor of Texas…Can you smell what the rock is cookin? All right, all right, all right…

In Theaters this weekend: ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’
Avatar: Fire and Ash picks up after The Way of Water and dives into darker territory, introducing a more aggressive Na’vi tribe tied to fire and volcanic regions. It cranks up the conflict, explores moral gray areas, and shows Pandora is a lot less peaceful than we thought.

Welcome to The List,
The Oscars are officially breaking up with ABC and moving in with YouTube. Starting in 2029, the Academy Awards will stream on YouTube, along with all the red-carpet chaos, through at least 2033. ABC still gets the show through the 100th Oscars in 2028, but after that, no channel flipping — you’re clicking a link.

Don’t expect to see Michael Bublé back in the spinning chair next season. He says he’s done with The Voice after dealing with online backlash and missing his family. An insider says the negative comments really took a toll, even though he loves the show and the crew. Sometimes the smoothest crooner in the room just wants to go home and be Dad.

Blake Shelton shared the first time he brought Gwen Stefani home to Oklahoma and it blew her mind. Gwen, raised in Anaheim, saw Blake’s land and asked, “You own this?” Then she spotted a creek and said, “You can have that?” She thought rivers only came with national park admission. Blake called it one of the joys of his life. City girl meets country acreage…

Morgan Wallen is now the highest-selling country artist of all time. He just picked up 80 new certifications and officially crossed 240 million units sold. Luke Combs comes in at number two, Garth Brooks at number three. Let that sink in. Skipped awards shows, topped streaming, and now sits on the mountain. Morgan let the numbers do the talking and they did….loudly.
