Did you know, Carrie Underwood has a fear of turtles? Because they are the ones that BIT her the most…”I grew up in the country, Turtles were the easiest thing to catch. I love animals so much that I feel like I would always try to hug them or pet them. That lead to them taking opportunities, I’ve been bit by lots of Turtles it does NOT feel good.” Ok, don’t pet Turtles, got it.

Welcome to The List,
So apparently someone doesn’t like being looked at while dating a superstar NFL tight end. Taylor Swift reportedly dropped TWO million bucks on extra security so she can blend in at Travis Kelce’s games. Girl, you are literally Taylor Swift. Center of attention is kind of the job. Between the two of them, they’re spending eight million a year on security. She’s basically a small nation at this point.

Lainey Wilson proved she’s queen of the yee-haw prank. At the end of her tour, she called her openers Muscadine Bloodline on stage for their normal sweet acoustic moment. But surprise. Their stools were swapped out with two classy… toilet seats. Nothing says “good show, boys” like resting your cheeks where strangers have gone before. Country comedy gold.

Rumor mill alert. The Globe claims Keith Urban is not taking the Nicole Kidman split well. Sources say he’s exhausted, lonely, and struggling without her. They’re acting like he’s five minutes from writing breakup ballads in sweatpants, clutching a pint of ice cream. Apparently folks worry he’s emotionally fragile. Hopefully he finds peace, love, or at least a good therapist.

Jonathan Bailey has officially been crowned People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive. If you don’t know the name, you definitely know the face. He’s Lord Anthony in Bridgerton, he’s in the Wicked movies, and popped up in Jurassic World. The internet is already swooning. Somewhere, Chris Evans is polishing his trophy like… “remember me?”
