Welcome to The List,
When King Charles is crowned on May 6th, it’ll be only the second televised coronation in U.K. history, and the first to be streamed. A 17th Century crown will be placed on his head, and he’ll be presented with some of the Crown Jewels. Live coverage begins at 7:00 a.m. local time, There will be a procession to Westminster Abbey, where the coronation will begin at 11:00 a.m. Charles’ wife, Queen Consort Camilla, will also be crowned . . . and she gets a ring and two scepters of her own. Then they head back to Buckingham Palace in the Gold State Coach, which has been used for every coronation since King William the Fourth’s in 1831.

There are NEW reports of trouble on the set of “Yellowstone” . . . and if you’re a fan, you won’t want to hear them. So-called “sources” are saying that the show will END after the second half of Season 5 . . . because Kevin Costner just can’t get along with the show’s creator, Taylor Sheridan. But it sounds like it’s not Kevin’s fault. The first half of Season 5 ended in January. There’s no word when the second half will air . . . or even when it’ll start filming.

Kenny Chesney was asked when we’ll be hearing new music. He said he’s working on it, but NOT rushing things. After all, he’s earned the right to take his time. “It’s easy to rush it and it’s easy to put music out when people think it might be time, but I think I’ve earned the right to get it right. I mean, I love it now, but I want to be in love.” Adding he feels lucky not to have a lot of ‘yes’ people in his camp. He has a lot of people around him that have really good song sense.

There comes a time for some artists that it doesn’t look like music will pan out…but you keep pluggin…just ask Corey Kent…“Luckily, I had a family that had an opportunity for me to go work at a pavement company. I took that opportunity, the way I was raised you always take the work that’s given to ya.. so I was working and writing down shows trying to juggle both things and trying to build back up to a point where music could be sustainable again”. So, no matter how bad it gets…never give up on a dream.

Tyler Hubbard tells Billboard magazine that it was hard to adjust to being on his own. Saying after 12 years of being a ‘WE’ to a just ME I have to take full responsibility for every decision, full responsibility for my own destiny, I don’t have anybody else to blame anything on. There’s a lot of freedom and fun in stepping into this new season.

And lastly, Kelly Ripa tells Entertainment Weekly that she has been thinking about retirement. “Every time you get a new cohost, it’s like a little jolt of energy. But to be clear, I am always thinking about retiring.

In theaters this weekend – “Crime 101”
Weaving a tale of an elusive thief whose high-stakes heists unfolding along the iconic 101 freeway have mystified police. When he eyes the score of a lifetime with hopes of this being his final job, his path collides with a disillusioned insurance broker who is facing her own crossroads, forcing the two to collaborate.

Welcome to The List,
Travis Kelce is out here setting expectations so high the rest of us are gonna get yelled at for bringing home gas station flowers. He’s reportedly spent $141,000 on pre-wedding gifts for Taylor Swift, including Rolex watches, designer jackets, and daily flower deliveries. Daily. Meanwhile, I forgot my anniversary once and tried to fix it with a breakfast burrito. Travis Kelce just ruined relationships for every man in America.

Lainey Wilson is teasing new music, and the title might be the most Lainey Wilson thing ever. The new single is called “Can’t Sit Still,” which tracks, because she’s been everywhere except my back yard party. She says her friends describe her as “a suitcase with legs,” which honestly sounds like Delta Airlines lost her twice already. No official release date yet, but she says it’s coming “real soon,” so prepare your playlists accordingly.

Bunnie XO just revealed she thought Jelly Roll was a jerk when they first met, which proves once again women love a fixer-upper. She said he had “teddy bear with teeth energy” and sad eyes, and she basically looked at him like a home improvement project from HGTV. Fast forward to now, they’re one of Country music’s biggest power couples. Moral of the story, sometimes the guy who ignores you becomes your husband.
-----
The new Mummy reboot is ditching the Tom Cruise action vibe and going straight for emotional damage. This one’s from the director of Evil Dead Rise, so instead of running from explosions, you’ll be running from your own nightmares. It’s about a girl who disappears and comes back after spending quality time inside a 3,000-year-old coffin. It hits theaters April 17th, and I’ll be watching it from the safety of daylight and denial.
You can catch The List, this afternoon at 4:20 with Jonathan Knight. Only on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
