Welcome to The List,
Kim Kardashian just testified against the “grandpa robbers” who tied her up and stole her jewelry in Paris back in 2016. And how did she show up to court? In $7 million worth of diamonds—including a 52-carat necklace. That’s carat, not karat. She said when they broke in at 3am, she was in a bathrobe and thought she was going to die. So naturally, she dressed like a human vault to face them. Classic Kim.

Remember when Morgan Wallen peaced out of SNL faster than a dad at a toddler’s dance recital? He finally explained why: “I was ready to go home. I’d been there all week.” That’s it. No drama. No tantrum. Just a man who’d had enough New York. He even posted “Get me to God’s country” from the tarmac. Honestly? Mood.

George Strait turns 73 this Sunday and just hinted at when he’ll retire. He said he’s got about “five good years” left on stage. Which means the King of Country might still be touring at 78. The man’s been performing for over 50 years—since his Army days. And he’s still selling out shows. Last summer? Over 110,000 people packed into Texas A&M to see him. Legend status confirmed.

A new book says George Clooney called for Biden to drop out right after a fundraiser where… Biden didn’t recognize him. Clooney. The guy from Ocean’s Eleven. The one he’s known for years. The book says Clooney was “shaken to his core.” I mean, if George Clooney walked up to me and I said “Do I know you?”—I’d assume I’d been hit in the head with a frying pan.

Welcome to The List,
Roseanne Barr says they asked her to come back to The Conners... as a ghost. She told Female First, “You killed me off, stole my show, and NOW you want me back ‘cause your ratings are in the toilet?” Her official response? “I’ll be busy… bowling.” Translation: hard pass, Casper.

Jason Aldean’s wife Brittany just lived out every Southern girl’s nightmare. She posted a video of a snake just chillin’ at their front door like it was there to sell cookies. You hear her go, “This is what nightmares are made of!” No ma’am. That’s what FLAMETHROWERS are made for.

If you're a Stranger Things junkie and haven’t emotionally recovered from Season 4 yet, good news! A new animated spinoff called Tales from '85 is coming next year. It fills in the winter gap between Seasons 2 and 3. Same Hawkins weirdness—just now with cartoons and probably fewer nosebleeds.

Wanna drink where the country stars pretend to be regular people? The top-rated bars are in! We got Old Dominion’s Odie’s, Luke Combs’ Category 10—which sounds like a hurricane and a hangover—and of course Blake Shelton’s Ole Red. Honky tonk? More like honky bougie.
