Welcome to The List,
Eric Church talks about Celebrating Our Freedom and the people that provide those freedoms … “I’m very proud that we have the soldiers. I know there are a lot of other countries out there in the world that don’t want to live the way we do, and that’s fine, they can keep living the way they are, but I’m very proud of it. I think that’s a time to celebrate being proud to be an American and celebrate those freedoms…and celebrate the people that are over fighting for those freedoms” Adding it’s the soldiers he comes in contact with on the road, the ability to make the music he makes and to say what he wants to say.

Madonna is auditioning new boyfriends. A source says she has zero interest in dating someone her age. What she wants is a hard-bodied, hot guy in his late twenties – someone who can keep up with her. She has requested that her team find her a handful of options – after signing a watertight NDA, of course.
