Welcome to The List –
2020 couldn’t leave well enough alone…K.T. Oslin has passed, she topped the country charts in the late ’80s with her unique approach to country music and won several Grammys, CMA and ACM Awards along the way. The song that put her on the map was “80’s Ladies,” it won her the Grammy for Best Female Country Vocal performance and was named the CMA’s Song of the Year. Two number-one hits followed: in 2015, the same year she was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. KT Oslin was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2018. K.T. Oslin was 78.
Yesterday we talked about Luke Bryan’s favorite Christmas gift being the Honda 50 motorcycle when he was a kid. It’s Lauren Alaina’s turn…what was the best Christmas gift that you’ve ever been given? “Gosh, that’s so hard to pick, but my mom and dad had their names on the front of their Bibles, and I was so jealous of that as a kid. So, I begged my mom to get me a Bible that had my name on it, and she actually got this Bible that you design the whole thing yourself. And she designed this Bible for me, and it had my name on it and I still have it, and it’s one of my favorite gifts I’ve ever been given.”
A couple movies are being released this Christmas one is Jamie Foxx’s new Movie ‘Soul’ … Jamie says that his daughter didn’t think he was famous until he landed a role in ‘Soul’. “My daughter was 12 years old, looked at me and says ‘dad you finally made it, you’re in a Pixar film. She said I didn’t think you were famous.” and the other is Gal Gadot’s long awaited “Wonder Woman 1984” How different is the sequel? “In this one we had the opportunity to really dig deeper and really explore the character to new depths.” Both movies are in theaters and streaming on HBO Max beginning December 25th.
Closer Weekly Magazine says Betty White is planning a low-key 99th birthday party on January 17th. A source tells the magazine, “The pandemic won’t stop Betty from celebrating turning 99 years old. She’s planning a Zoom garden party with friends and a big chocolate birthday cake with candles. She’s always had a sweet tooth! She [also] asked for hotdogs and fries with ketchup. Happy Birthday Betty.
