Welcome to The List,
Megan Moroney told Rolling Stone she considers herself a “Southern-belle Barbie”—you know, with 10 pounds of hair extensions and a hairspray helmet for special occasions. Because nothing says “authentic country” like a plastic head and a flammable updo.

CBS has a new show coming called The Road, where up-and-coming artists open for Keith Urban and Blake Shelton. And who’s their tour manager? Gretchen “Redneck Woman” Wilson. So yes—aspiring singers, prepare to get yelled at in a Southern accent while learning the fine art of shot-gunning a beer mid-guitar solo.

Back in ’83, Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson were gonna record a duet—until Michael brought his pet llama into the studio. Freddie took one look and said, “I’m out.” Because even rock legends have limits, and apparently, surprise livestock is one of them.

Eva Longoria says she’s not sure there’ll be a Desperate Housewives reboot. And somewhere, every guy who was forced to watch it in 2005 just exhaled like they avoided jury duty.

Welcome to The List,
Tom Bergeron is back, But not on the ballroom floor—he’s hosting Dancing with Sharks for Shark Week. Yes, real sharks. Yes, real dancing. No, this is not a fever dream. Expert divers will waltz underwater with actual sharks thanks to a world-class underwater choreographer. So basically… “So You Think You Can Swim.”

Morgan Wallen Dropped a 37-Song Album on Friday. It’s called I’m the Problem, which honestly sounds like a therapy breakthrough. It’s a double album, it’s country, it’s rap, it’s…controversial. Especially the rap cover of a Keith Whitley song—because nothing says “classic country” like autotune and a trap beat. Swifties are still mad. So, mission accomplished?

Sharpen your stakes and crank up the angst—the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" reboot is happening, and they've found a new young slayer to team up with Sarah Michelle Gellar. Yep, Buffy’s back, and apparently she’s mentoring now, which means this girl’s about to get a crash course in slaying and sarcasm. The Hellmouth won’t know what hit it... but probably still ends in a dramatic slow-motion fight scene.

So here’s something straight out of a murder ballad—human remains were found near Taylor Swift’s Rhode Island mansion. Yeah. Real ones. Police say no foul play is suspected, and Swift’s team hasn’t commented. So either it’s a tragic coincidence… or the Cruel Summer just got way darker. Either way, cue the eerie piano music.
