Welcome to The List,
Lainey Wilson didn’t just win at the CMAs she collected awards like they were Casey’s Rewards points. Entertainer of the Year, Female Vocalist of the Year, AND Album of the Year. Cody Johnson snagged Male Vocalist, and “You Look Like You Love Me” basically swept the rest: Song, Single, AND Music Video of the Year. At this point, the CMAs should just hand Lainey the building and let her lock up when she’s done.

Glen Powell is reportedly crushed because “The Running Man” tanked at the box office. A source says he thought this was his Tom Cruise moment the stunts, the swagger, the whole “next big action star” glow-up. Apparently, people hyped him up as the new Cruise… but one flop later and suddenly everybody’s real quiet. Someone please get this man a rom-com and a hug.

Before you see “Wicked: For Good,” experts say there are a few Wizard of Oz scenes worth revisiting. Dorothy arriving in Oz because that Technicolor pop still hits. The Wicked Witch attacking the Scarecrow because girl was unhinged. And the moment the Wizard orders Dorothy and friends to kill the Witch which honestly, is way darker than you remember. Homework complete.

Megan Moroney says she does not tell her exes when she writes a song about them… She told American Songwriter that she’ll let her aunt know, she’ll loop in her friends, she’ll even put them in the teaser videos. But the ex-boyfriends? Nope. No warning. No courtesy text. If the shoe fits, boys, lace it up. Megan basically said, “If you hear yourself in the lyrics… that’s between you and Spotify.”
