The List for Wednesday, May 28th 2025

Welcome to The List,

So Carrie Underwood and Jelly Roll might be teaming up—and not just for an unexpected duet in your karaoke nightmares. A source says she’s a big fan, loves their voices together, and shocker—fans actually influenced a celebrity decision! It’s being fast-tracked now, which is industry code for “we smelled money.” Can’t wait for the power ballad titled “Barbecue and Eyeliner.”

Megan Moroney told People she’s staying single to focus on her career and “reflect on past relationships.” Translation: She’s sick of dating dudes who think owning a truck and two brain cells makes them husband material. Good for her. Focus, thrive, and maybe write a song called “He Ghosted Me but I Charted Anyway.”

Ohio wants to make Superman their official superhero by 2033. Because when you think of superpowers, you think… Ohio. Yes, his creators were from there, and the new movie filmed in Cincinnati and Cleveland, so now he’s being adopted like a rescue dog in a cape. Next up: Batman becomes the official mascot of New Jersey.

Will Smith is charging fans up to $1,740 for a group photo on his U.K. tour. For that price, I better get a personalized rap and a slap on the back. Or just a slap. It includes a stage tour, too—because nothing says “Fresh Prince” like standing near some lights and pretending it’s worth a month’s rent.

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.
