Welcome to The List,
So Top Gun: Maverick director Joseph Kosinski told GQ he wants to do a crossover between “Days of Thunder” and that new F1 movie with Brad Pitt. Because apparently NASCAR and Formula 1 need a cinematic multiverse now? Oh—and he teased Top Gun 3 where Maverick faces a “crisis bigger than himself.” Probably high cholesterol!

Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom have ended their engagement after nearly ten years. A source says it’s “amicable” and “not contentious.” Yeah, well, if your engagement lasts longer than some marriages… were you planning a wedding, or just hoping the other person would blink first?

Travis Kelce hosted a surprise nightclub concert in Nashville Tuesday, and who jumps on stage? Taylor Swift and Kane Brown—singing Shake It Off. Travis wore camo, gold chains, and a cowboy hat like a fashion fever dream. Raise your hand if you’re one more duet away from needing a break.

Zach Bryan was in a Dublin bar when he heard a staffer say he’s working late nights to pay for college. So Zach left him a $7,000 tip. Which is incredible, inspiring, and a reminder that I too am available for eavesdropping—especially if you’re rich and generous.

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.”
