Welcome to The List –
We start today with Blake’s proposal to Gwen. Blake gives us the play by play on what exactly happened. “ I remember after I asked her, there was some you know like crying and things and Gwen’s oldest son Kingston was sitting right next to us when this happened. Gwen at one moment said, ‘Wait a minute did I answer you; Did I say yes out loud?’ Even I was wondering, and Kingston said mom, yeah you did I heard you say yes you did.’ I don’t know how long it took but that’s how it happened.” Well, that could have turned awkward.
Gabby Barrett Talks About Singing Her Favorite Song ‘Jolene’ “I started singing that song when I was just starting, because I absolutely loved it. Around eleven or twelve, I started singing when I was nine in a gospel choir.” Gabby’s Number one single ‘I Hope’ has been on the Country Music charts for an impressive 85 weeks.
Eddie Murphy talks to Ellen about turning 60, and gives a spoiler-free preview of ‘Coming 2 America’. “In this movie our happily ever after gets interrupted by a very modern problem that we have to deal with.” He says doing the movie with much of the old cast was like going back to high school for him.
Join us tomorrow at 5:40 for “At The Movies” Where we take a closer look.
‘Coming 2 America’ starts streaming on Amazon Prime on Friday, March 5th.

Welcome to The List,
Rumors are flying that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have allegedly set a wedding date. A so-called source says the planning is “military-level precise,” which tracks, because Taylor hates surprises and Travis runs NFL playbooks for a living. Pop music, professional football, and Hollywood elite all in one room. Locked down, protected, unforgettable. Basically the most intense group project ever attempted.

Former Bachelor host Chris Harrison is launching a new dating show for people who want a “traditional, marriage-minded partnership built on commitment and shared values.” Which apparently is now considered edgy programming. Somewhere, reality TV just gasped. This is not roses and drama. This is compatibility and emotional maturity.

Before Luke Combs made it big, he had $200 left in his bank account. That money went toward mastering one song, “Hurricane.” He releases it, sells about 10,000 copies the first week, and uses the cash to finish the rest of the album. Then pitches it to labels. And that, kids, is how you bet on yourself and win.

Toby Keith, Kenny Rogers, and Ed Harris are being inducted into the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum. The ceremony happens in April in Oklahoma City. They’re joining legends like George Strait, Brooks & Dunn, Kurt Russell, and Burt Reynolds. That is a hall with serious swagger. Cowboy hats optional. Legends required.
