We all have a playlist we like to listen to when doing things around the house…working on the truck….Carly Pearce has HER favorite music while exercising … “A lot of Beyoncé when I’m running. A lot of 90s female artists outside of when I’m running – Faith, Trisha, Shania. I really like electronic music when I’m running, which is really weird, just like remixes and techno stuff. People make fun of me when they listen to what I’m listening to, but some sort of playlist like that, definitely.“ I listen to a lot of pretty heavy rock when I’m in the gym…so yeah…very motivating….

Tom Sizemore remains in critical condition in the ICU after suffering a brain aneurysm and a stroke on the 18th. His manager said he’s still in a coma and his family has been advised to have an end-of-life plan for him because there hasn’t been any improvement.

We haven’t seen much of Arnold Schwarzenegger since “Terminator: Dark Fate” in 2019 . . . but that’s about to change. He’s doing an eight-episode action/comedy series for Netflix called “FUBAR”, and a teaser dropped yesterday. It’s about a father and daughter who are forced to work together after they discover they’re both CIA operatives. ‘FUBAR’ premieres on May 25th. It does kind of sound like “True Lies”, except the dynamic is switched from husband/wife to father/daughter.

This is Blake Shelton’s last season on ‘The Voice’, so.. what would it take for him to stay?? “I’d like for Kelly to…not be on the show anymore…I just think there’s to much Kelly Clarkson on the television in general.” ‘The Voice’ premieres on Monday, March 6th

And lastly….Jake Owen’s dog, Merle, has passed. He posted; “Weird time for me these days. Lost another best friend. We shared almost 14 years together. He went more places than most people ever will, and slept thru most of it. He was with me thru the best of the best and worst moments of my life. Love ya Merle. You were my dawg.”

Welcome to The List,
Luke Combs tells Southern Living he is a simple Southern comfort food guy. Barbecue, mac and cheese, cornbread, and he is happy. No truffle foam. No tiny portions on giant plates. So next time he swings through KIX Country, forget the autograph. Hand that man a brisket and watch the magic happen.

Rumors say Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have allegedly made relationship resolutions to avoid drifting apart. Sources claim they are being more intentional with work, church, health, and actual date nights. Less coasting, more communicating. A very deliberate reset, according to insiders. Nothing says romance like a scheduled calendar invite.

Riley Green admits he has never celebrated Valentine’s Day with a girlfriend. He calls himself a procrastinator and jokes that Christmas gifts get wrapped in newspaper. Romantic. Truly. He says a Valentine’s date would likely involve last-minute grocery store flowers. Sir, the bar is already low. Please step over it.

Post Malone hit the stage at a Bud Light Super Bowl show and found out beers were $14. He called it unacceptable and tried dropping the price to $7, then $5, even joked about $3 for Cowboys fans. Spoiler alert. The bartenders kept charging full price. The crowd still had fun. But we can all agree, fourteen dollars for a beer is emotional damage.
