Welcome to The List,
Wynonna Judd kicks off her greatest hits tour this Friday in Georgia—because apparently, she’s on a mission to remind us what real country music used to sound like. Her words, not mine. She said, “I don’t think we celebrate it enough.” Translation: “Y’all forgot about me, and I’m here to fix that.”

Riley Green is staying fit on tour by channeling Kenny Chesney… and maybe a little Rocky Balboa. He told Men’s Health he uses a portable gym and runs stairs wearing a weighted vest—because nothing says “country strong” like sweating in a parking lot next to your tour bus.

Jennifer Aniston is trying to reboot 9 to 5, but here’s the plot twist—she can’t find any co-stars. She wants Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney, but they’re booked solid till like 2087. Word is, younger actresses just aren’t feelin’ the vibe of a movie about… ya know, fax machines and pantyhose.

Alec Baldwin’s wife Hilaria is doing yoga in heels. Yes, sparkly red pumps. Because when you’re a mom of seven and married to Alec, your balance game better be elite. Some folks found it weird, others called it “fashionably functional.” I call it… “why is this a headline?”

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.

When I heard that Alex Miller was opening for Rodney Atkins at the Marion County Fair. I knew I had to try and arrange a visit with him in the KIX studio. Thanks to his promoter JR Hughes and Alex's management for making it happen!!
Here is part 2 of Alex's visit!!
