KIX CRITTER OF THE WEEK Claire 2/24/2026

Welcome to The List,
Jimmy Fallon tells Parents magazine that he’s planning to tape his mouth shut for better sleep. The idea is to force himself to breathe through his nose for a more restful night. Jimmy says, “I guess people that talk a lot breathe through their mouths. So, I’m going to have security guards next to my bed and try this — I’m not kidding!” You can always get a CPAP machine…less likelihood of dying.

Kim Kardashian made her 8-year-old son Saint sign a detailed contract before starting his YouTube channel. The contract prohibits sharing personal family info or filming when his sister North is recording music. Kim insists on overseeing all videos before they are posted to ensure compliance with the contract…Did the 8 year old have his lawyer look at it first?

Here are some jobs that Country music stars had before they got famous: Carrie Underwood was a gas station attendant . . . Kane Brown was a FedEx delivery driver . . . and Dierks Bentley drained the waste from houseboat bathroom tanks. Talk about a job that stinks!

Welcome to The List,
Luke Combs just welcomed baby number three, and at this point he’s not running a family… he’s running a small football team. His new son is named Chet Wiley Combs, joining big brothers Tex and Beau, which also sounds like a law firm that only handles tractor-related lawsuits. Nicole is now outnumbered four to one, which means Luke finally achieved his lifelong dream… living in a non-stop WWE event with juice boxes.

Matthew McConaughey says AI actors are coming for the Oscars, which means in five years the Best Actor speech will just be a laptop saying “Thank you… processing emotions.” The upside is AI doesn’t age, doesn’t argue, and doesn’t show up late. The downside… your favorite movie star might soon be a Dell Inspiron with better abs than you.
-----
Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are getting sued over their restaurant “1587 Prime” by a sneaker company called “1587 Sneakers,” which proves two things… lawyers are undefeated, and apparently numbers are now copyrighted. Somewhere right now, the number 7 is hiring security and filing paperwork just to stay out of trouble.
-----
Keith Urban and Jennifer Lopez are reportedly texting late at night, which means somewhere Nicole Kidman is casually holding Keith’s phone like, “Oh look… Jennifer sent another smiley face.” Sources say matchmakers want them together, and honestly, if this happens, country and pop fans will unite faster than free beer at a wedding.
