Welcome to The List,
Thomas Rhett has a foot in two different worlds. He’s a country star dealing with all the pressures around that. And he’s a father of four girls ages seven to one. Yes, he loves it . . . when he’s able to come up for air. “It’s one thing to be responsible for your own schedule and well-being, but it’s a whole other thing when you’re in charge of four other humans. Quote, “It’s your fault if your kids are late, if their lunch isn’t packed correctly, if their homework isn’t finished. We’re trying to keep up with that and extra-curricular activities . . . gymnastics, dance, and all these things. It’s a blast though, I’m lovin’ it.”

Pop Culture magazine says Prince Harry slams Elvis Presley and Graceland in his new memoir “Spare”. He writes, “People variously called the house a castle, a mansion, a palace. I stood in one tiny room with loud furniture and shag carpet and thought, ‘The King’s interior designer must have been on acid.'”

In her new Netflix documentary, “Pamela, A Love Story,” Pamela Anderson claims, Sylvester Stallone wanted to date her. Saying “He offered me a condo and a Porsche to be his ‘No. 1 girl’ He goes ‘That’s the best offer you’re gonna get, honey. You’re in Hollywood now.’
Stallone’s reps say, “The statement from Pamela Anderson attributed to my client is false and fabricated. Earlier it was reported that Tim Allen flashed her on the set of “Home Improvement which he said never happened.

This is the time of year we get to hear bits and pieces of what we missed at Luke Bryan’s annual Crash My Playa in Mexico. Yesterday, Carly Pearce posted a TikTok of herself and Cole Swindell performing “Never Say Never”.
@carlypearce Had so much fun singing with you, @coleswindell 🤠 #countrymusic #crashmyplaya #neversaynever

Some ladies my view Brett Young as the perfect husband because he tells Music Mayhem magazine that he does what he’s told when he’s at home. “That’s her house man. She’s the leader of the household. When I’m home, her word is law. I just say “Yes ma’am” and do what I’m told.”

Welcome to The List,
Brantley Gilbert sang “Dirt Road Anthem” at the Turning Point USA halftime show, and Zach Bryan took it personally. So Zach dropped a parody called “Chili on a Hot Dog,” basically roasting the lyrics and celebrating double-fisted chili dogs like it’s a county fair championship. Brantley fired back by grabbing two foot-long chili dogs on stage and acting it out. Jason Aldean chimed in with, “Best song I’ve heard from that guy.” Nothing says country unity like processed meat.

Thomas Rhett admitted on a podcast he’s losing hearing in one ear at 35 and had to get hearing aids. Years of loud concerts… plus four kids and a fifth on the way. He wore them for a week and asked his wife, “Is this what you hear all day?” She basically said, welcome to marriage. Turns out the loudest tour of his life is at home.

There’s a new indie horror movie called ‘The House Was Not Hungry Then’, told entirely from the haunted house’s perspective. No close-ups. No dramatic reaction shots. Just the house silently watching a woman search for her missing father. It hits video on demand February 13th. So now even the drywall is judging you.

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer says he’s working on Top Gun 3 and Pirates of the Caribbean 6. He told Screen Rant it’s basically a horse race. Right now Top Gun is barely ahead, waiting on a script. So Maverick might fly again… or Jack Sparrow might stumble back in. Hollywood is saying…. originality is overrated.
