The List for Thursday, October 27th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Ask a country artist if they have a “road prank story” and they’ll give you one.  Jason Aldean remembers the time Tim McGraw hijacked his ear monitor, while he was on stage TRYING to perform. “He [got] the microphone where my ear monitor guy is, where he talks to us in our ears.  Tim got ahold of that.  “I’m trying to sing and all the sudden, I hear somebody talking or singing a different song, and I’m trying to hear my band and all I can hear is McGraw . . like right in the middle of my show.  [And] he’s singing like ‘Indian Outlaw’.”, “I look over and he’s laughing on the side stage.”

In his new memoir, ”Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing”,  Matthew Perry writes that he and Cameron Diaz were fixed up in 2007 after she dumped Justin Timberlake. The couple was playing a game of Pictionary at a dinner party when Matthew flirted with Cameron. She went to punch his shoulder, but missed and ended up hitting him in the face…did she though…miss?

Lainey Wilson’s new album “Bell Bottom Country” is out tomorrow.  She says the title means “country with a flare.”  Her team put brightly-colored bell bottoms on a “bunch of mannequins located at Nashville’s Music Row Roundabout.

Travis Denning said one of his “most proud AND embarrassed” Halloween costumes was when he went as Terry from “Reno 911”.  “I had the roller skates the short-shorts, the tied-up shirt.  Looking back, it wasn’t the manliest thing I ever did, but it got a lot of laughs and I think that year my favorite candy was Busch Light.”

American idols Katy Perry tells The Cut that she meditates her hangovers away. “I try to meditate in the morning if I didn’t get enough sleep or if my sleep was like an Imax movie — I use it for jet lag, hangovers, creativity. Sometimes, I just slip away for 20 minutes in the middle of the day.
