Welcome to The List,
Actor Johnny Depp took the stand Tuesday in his libel lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard, saying her domestic abuse allegations against him were disturbing, heinous and “not based in any species of truth.” “There were arguments, and things of that nature. But never did I myself reach the point of striking Miss Heard in anyway. Nore have I struck any woman.”, the former “Pirates of the Caribbean” star said, “it’s been six years of trying times. It’s very strange when one day you’re Cinderella, so to speak, and then in 0.6 seconds you’re Quasimodo.”

A British tabloid says Will Smith and Jada Pinkett have barely spoken since the Oscars. Supposedly, they’ve been having problems for years, but it’s on another level now. Yesterday, a trailer for the new season of “Red Table Talk” dropped . . . but there was no mention of Will making an appearance, or of the Oscars even being brought up. But the season may have been recorded before any of that happened.

And today…if you’re feeling down and not finding the right fit with that special someone …..Carly Pearce has some inspirational words she’s found to be true over the years…”It’s so easy to just be sad and think, ‘what’s wrong with me’ or ‘what happened?’ And really, a lot of times you just have to know that you’re worth it, and if a relationship doesn’t work out it’s gonna be fine because you’re gonna find something that’s more suited for you.” The ‘ I Hope Your Happy Now’ singer is now dating Riley King a former MLB player for the Kansas City Royals..

Welcome to The List,
It’s been 40 years since Live Aid rocked the world—literally. Back on July 13, 1985, Wembley and JFK Stadiums tag-teamed a global concert watched by nearly 2 billion people. And now? CNN’s dropping a 4-part doc, and the UK is throwing it a full-blown birthday party. That’s right—Live Aid’s old enough to complain about back pain now!

Ozzy Osbourne has officially hung up the bat wings. His last-ever concert—"Back to the Beginning"—went down July 5th in Birmingham with Black Sabbath and a parade of metal legends. It was epic, emotional, and charitable! When he sang “Mama I’m Coming Home,” even the devils in the mosh pit teared up.

Jelly Roll clapped back HARD at people calling his wife a gold digger. He said, "She was a high-end escort when I met her—I was the broke one living in a van!" And honestly? The man married up! So maybe stop judging and start taking notes, huh?
-----
Parker McCollum was asked the most country thing he’s ever done… and buckle up: He said, “Rode a horse bareback. Naked. In Crocs.” I—what?! That is peak country chaos right there. And no, there are no plans for a repeat performance. His words, not mine.
