Welcome to The List,
Today on The List we celebrate favorite Christmas presents…I think MY favorite was waking up in the morning to a room FULL of toys and for one day I didn’t have to clean up my mess… But Brantley Gilbert? He got a new best friend…“The best gift I ever received as a child, I still gotta say, I think I was in third grade, and I got a miniature dachshund. My parents got me a dog, and that little dude was my best friend for eight years. His name was Max, and he was one of the best dogs ever. So that’s probably my best Christmas memory”

The Spice girls could soon be piling back into their infamous double decker bus for a Spice Girls reunion tour. Just two years after the beloved ’90s girl group reunited, minus Beckham, for a brief tour, Sporty Spice herself teased the possibility of yet another reunion, revealing that she and her former bandmates are “constantly” talking about another tour. But, it won’t happen any time soon…but if it did they say a World Tour would happen in 2023. Tell me whatcha want…what cha really, really want…..a Spice Girls reunion tour…

Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley On His Best Christmas Present … “My best Christmas gift I ever received, probably as a child, had to be my G.I. Joe command post. It was basically like a big old castle, a fortress. I woke up on Christmas morning, it was all set up, had all the G.I. Joes, all the players, and it was incredible. I had a wonderful day playing with all my friends, and nothing like a good G.I. Joe as a child. It made for a very memorable experience”

Would you mistake Ryan Reynolds for Ben Affleck? Well it happens almost every time Ryan walks into this New York pizzeria. Ryan says “They believe I’m Ben Affleck and I’ve never corrected them. I feel it would not go over well if I revealed. I do everything normal like everybody else. ‘They’ll ask how J.Lo is and I’m like, “Great, good.” I get the pizza and off I go.” How could you ever mistake Batman for Deadpool….

What fruit is traditionally placed in Christmas stockings symbolizing gold coins from St. Nicholas' ?
Welcome to The List,
Sad news from the soap world. General Hospital icon Anthony Geary has passed away at age 78 due to complications from surgery in Amsterdam. Fans knew him forever as Luke Spencer, one of the most legendary characters daytime TV has ever seen. His longtime on-screen partner Genie Francis said, “No star burned brighter than Tony Geary,” adding that working with him was always unpredictable and exciting. A true original, and a massive loss for television history.

Radar Online says Mariah Carey is allegedly stressed that her Christmas anthem All I Want For Christmas Is You might not dominate the charts this year. Apparently Gen Z is flirting with other holiday jams. An insider says this song is basically Mariah’s financial Super Bowl. If it underperforms, the brand wobbles. Somewhere, Mariah is warming up her whistle register and threatening December itself.

Riley Green had a moment onstage when a fan tossed leopard-print granny panties at him mid-show. He kept singing like a pro while the internet absolutely did not. His tour crew has now started collecting bras, panties, and even hair extensions thrown on stage. Riley said they were going to donate the bras once he learned how expensive they are. Country concerts really are built different.

Blake Shelton told People magazine that Gwen Stefani is the head chef at home, especially when it comes to Italian food. Blake says her lasagna takes all day to make, but he’d eat it for the rest of his life. Somewhere, an Oklahoma grill is quietly weeping, but love is love. And apparently love tastes like lasagna.
