He will try to find love among a group of women 65 and older. A premiere date for “The Golden Bachelor” hasn’t been announced yet.

Dolly Parton turned 77 a few months back, but don’t worry about her hanging it up anytime soon. She did an interview with a radio station in the U.K. the other day, and said her plan is to NEVER retire. “I’ll just hopefully drop dead in the middle of a song onstage someday . . . hopefully one I’ve written. That’s how I hope to go.” She said the only thing that would slow her down is if her health goes downhill, or her husband gets sick. Otherwise, she wants to “make hay while the sun shines..

People magazine says Jamie Foxx recently held a party to celebrate his recovery from his alleged stroke. A source says the bash took place at his Chicago rehab center. “He has been working really hard these last couple of months to get back to normal and has greatly improved since he first got to the facility. He is still doing some outpatient rehab though.”

TMZ says Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello are divorcing after seven years of marriage. They released a joint statement saying, “We have made the difficult decision to divorce. As two people that love and care for one another very much, we politely ask for respect of our privacy at this time as we navigate this new phase of our lives.”

Of all people to have the key to happiness…Justin Moore just might! “You know, success is defined differently by a lot of different people. For me right now, success is defined by being the best son of God I can be, and the best dad I can be, and the best husband I can be. If I can sing pretty good, that’s pretty cool too. But as long as my kiddos look up to me and my wife’s happy with me, I’m pretty happy.” Adding embrace what you are and who you are, whatever that is.

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.

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
