Welcome to The List –
Lee Brice makes it on The List and says in Nashville, he used to write new music everyday. “You get up everyday…you go to an appointment whether you feel like it or not, and you work. So I built a studio on my bus, so that when I get home I can just be home. I’ll bring maybe a co-writer out like some of my good buddies onto the bus for a weekend and we just dial in.” Lee Brice is on a winning streak as “One of Them Girls” becomes his third No. 1 single in a row, and his seventh chart-topping release overall. His new album ‘Hey World’, comes out November 20.
Luke Combs is one of many artists who will perform at the 2020 Billboard Music Awards next month. Luke is nominated for Top Country Artist, Top Country Male Artist, Top Country Album and the fan-voted Billboard Chart Achievement Award.

Carole Baskin had her final night on ‘Dancing With The Stars’ saying she’s happy for the opportunity and is NOT upset “ I am thrilled that all of this has happened the way it has and that I don’t have to learn another dance.” She’s just glad she was able to get the word about her big cats…now? She’s shopping around a reality show were she brings animal abusers to justice.
The debates last night were tough…to watch…but Jimmy Fallon shared his thoughts..“This got real ugly, after the debate was over Chris Wallace said he wants to moderate something a little more civil like a Real House Wifes’ reunion or a back alley knife fight”

Tom Cruise is allegedly on a long, carefully planned mission to become Sir Tom Cruise. A source says this has been years in the making hosting events, shaking hands, embedding himself deep in the British film world. Apparently he knows exactly how the system works and he’s been playing the long game. At this point, don’t be shocked if the next Mission: Impossible ends with him bowing politely and accepting a sword tap on each shoulder.

Miranda Lambert is developing a new TV series for Hulu inspired by her music and real-life friendships. The show centers on a messy female friendship, an escape from an abusive marriage, and a fresh start in a small Texas town that turns out to be full of secrets. So basically heartbreak, healing, strong women, and Texas drama which is already Miranda’s brand. Country music meets prestige TV.
