Welcome to The List,
Dolly Parton’s taking over the Country Music Hall of Fame, and it’s shinier than a disco ball at a rhinestone rodeo. This new exhibit is full of glitter, glam, and six decades of fabulous. Dolly even teared up, saying, “It’s a long way from the Smoky Mountains to the top of the world.”

So apparently, we’re canonizing craft brews now? Chicago’s Burning Bush Brewery just dropped a new beer called “Da Pope,” inspired by Pope Leo XIV—because nothing says holiness like hops. It’s an American mild ale with fruity notes. So yeah, if you’ve ever wanted to drink the spirit of Chicago’s papal pride… now’s your chance to get buzzed and blessed.

Morgan Wallen’s new rap-cover of “Miami” is catching heat—and not the good kind. People say it sounds like he teamed up with Alvin and the freakin’ Chipmunks. The chorus? High-pitched and autotuned within an inch of its life. Once you hear it, you can’t unhear it. It’s giving… helium karaoke. Bless his autotuned little heart.

Shakira’s hips don’t lie—but apparently someone’s immune system did. Someone with measles showed up at her MetLife Stadium show in New Jersey. No confirmed cases yet, but symptoms could pop up through June 6th. So if you went… congrats, you didn’t just get a concert—you might’ve got a souvenir virus. Thanks for the germs, mystery patient zero!

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.”
