Welcome to The List,
Luke Bryan just used Blake Shelton’s ticket sales as a punchline. While rehearsing in a giant arena, Luke joked, “We got this big building just to kind of show everybody what Blake Shelton’s ticket sales look like.” Then panned the camera to a sea of empty seats. Somewhere, Blake just spit out his beer and said, “That’s fair.”

Angel Reese’s mom threw some shade sharp enough to slice a basketball net. After fans pointed out Caitlin Clark’s preseason crowd was more than double Angel’s, Mama Reese clapped back on X: “Some people cheer for attendance, others cheer for championship banners. We ain’t the same.” Then she turned off the comments like, “Fight me—but silently.”

Kane Brown told Rolling Stone he’s embracing the “pop country” label, saying he wants songs on both pop and country radio. Translation: “You can argue about genres while I collect checks from both sides.” Honestly, smart move. It’s like being able to eat at Waffle House and Nobu.

In the Diddy trial jury selection, one potential juror straight-up told the court he can’t go a day without weed. Respect the honesty, but sir—this is not High Court on Comedy Central. He got dismissed and probably celebrated with a snack the second he hit the parking lot.

Welcome to The List,
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are allegedly hitting a rough patch not over romance, but over the prenup. An insider claims the financial talks are “cold-hearted,” mostly because their bank accounts look like they’re from two different planets. Travis wants to play another season or two and eventually jump into broadcasting, and apparently Taylor’s not thrilled with that plan. The source says there is supposed to be a wedding this offseason… but right now the negotiations look less like love and more like Shark Tank.

Willie Nelson is fed up with the internet declaring him dead every other week and he finally said something. He posted a photo of himself snoozing on a couch with the caption, “If you believe those A.I. death stories one more time.” For months, fake AI posts claimed he collapsed, was hospitalized, or worse. None of it true. Willie’s still here, still laughing, still alive… and more coherent than some of the people posting about him.

Diddy allegedly thinks someone in his own family sold him out after 50 Cent got access to leaked footage for the Netflix documentary ‘The Reckoning’. The footage shows him distressed on a phone call and Diddy is reportedly determined to figure out who leaked it. He believes only family had access to something that sensitive. And after watching parts of the doc myself? Yeah… “eye-opening” is putting it lightly. This story gets messier by the hour.

Luke Combs told ESPN he wants to headline the Super Bowl halftime show and watch his Carolina Panthers win that same game. Bold. Very bold. He said he grew up in Charlotte when the Panthers became a team, so it’s “in his blood.” Look, we love the confidence but asking for a halftime slot and a Panthers Super Bowl victory is what scientists call “a miracle.”
