The List for Wednesday, August 2nd 2023

Welcome to The List,

Gwyneth Paltrow is putting the guest house at her home in Montecito, California on Airbnb, and if you book it, you can have dinner with her and her husband in the wine room.  If that’s an incentive.

At what point has it gone…just a little to far…Funeral homes in Mexico and other Latin American countries are offering pink, “Barbie”-themed caskets.  One company says they’re a way for people to, quote, “Rest like Barbie.”

BuzzFeed put together a list of the most unusual things celebrities have in their homes.  Here are some highlights include: Sheryl Crow:  She has traditional death masks that were created after the person passed away, including former presidents William McKinley and William Howard Taft. Kacey Musgraves:  She has a joint from Willie Nelson in a frame…and RuPaul:  He has a “disco room” that has 26 disco balls. Doesn’t everyone?

How can you tell when your OLD…A Gen Z TikToker was shocked to learn that “Push” by Matchbox Twenty was a real song before the “Barbie” movie.  She didn’t even know who Matchbox Twenty was.

—–

Carrie Underwood will once again star in the “show open” for NBC’s “Sunday Night Football”.  It’ll be her 11th consecutive season.  Anymore she’s just as much a staple at the NFL as Hank Williams Jr was.  This year’s debut will be September 10th when the Dallas Cowboys visit the New York Giants.

—–

Nickelodeon will air an alternate, kid-focused telecast of Super Bowl 58.  It’ll be the first time a Super Bowl has had a second presentation…I guess they got that Express written consent from the National Football League…

The List for Thursday, December 18th 2025

Welcome to The List,

The Oscars are officially breaking up with ABC and moving in with YouTube. Starting in 2029, the Academy Awards will stream on YouTube, along with all the red-carpet chaos, through at least 2033. ABC still gets the show through the 100th Oscars in 2028, but after that, no channel flipping — you’re clicking a link.

Don’t expect to see Michael Bublé back in the spinning chair next season. He says he’s done with The Voice after dealing with online backlash and missing his family. An insider says the negative comments really took a toll, even though he loves the show and the crew. Sometimes the smoothest crooner in the room just wants to go home and be Dad.

Blake Shelton shared the first time he brought Gwen Stefani home to Oklahoma and it blew her mind. Gwen, raised in Anaheim, saw Blake’s land and asked, “You own this?” Then she spotted a creek and said, “You can have that?” She thought rivers only came with national park admission. Blake called it one of the joys of his life. City girl meets country acreage…

Morgan Wallen is now the highest-selling country artist of all time. He just picked up 80 new certifications and officially crossed 240 million units sold. Luke Combs comes in at number two, Garth Brooks at number three. Let that sink in. Skipped awards shows, topped streaming, and now sits on the mountain. Morgan let the numbers do the talking and they did….loudly.
