Welcome to The List,
Well, can’t wait for this one to hit theaters…Chuck Norris can cure a zombie by biting it. I don’t know if that was ever an official Chuck Norris Fact, but it might be soon. Because someone was FINALLY smart enough to put Chuck in a zombie movie. It’s called “Zombie Plane”, and Chuck will actually be playing HIMSELF. So will Vanilla Ice. In the movie, the government has trained celebrities to be undercover agents . . . which explains Vanilla Ice being able to kick zombie butt. Obviously, there was never any doubt about Chuck. There’s no word when we’ll be able to bask in the glow of its cinematic brilliance.

Some people want a fast car…others a nice new home…Chris Janson? Well, he’s kind of a bird of a different feather…he tells CMT that HIS dream is to own a civil war cannon! In fact he’s actively looking for one. Saying “I don’t know what I’ll do with one if I get it…I just know I want one.”

“Top Gun” is now a reality show. “Top Gun: The Next Generation” is coming to Nat Geo, but a premiere date hasn’t been announced yet. The show will follow Navy student pilots “every step of the way” during training, as they embark on, quote, “some of the most challenging flight tests possible, including landing on an aircraft carrier at sea.” This will reportedly be the first time this level of access has been given to the pilot training program.

Blake Shelton assisted his wife Gwen Stefani in collecting items from their farm to decorate their porch for fall. They shared a video of them using white homegrown pumpkins, corn stalks, flowers, and leaves. Blake also said hi to Gwen’s fellow “The Voice” coaches. Quote, “Niall [Horan], Reba [McEntire], and John [Legend], y’all need to come out here and do some country stuff . . . Reba!”

Weaving a tale of an elusive thief whose high-stakes heists unfolding along the iconic 101 freeway have mystified police. When he eyes the score of a lifetime with hopes of this being his final job, his path collides with a disillusioned insurance broker who is facing her own crossroads, forcing the two to collaborate.

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.
