Welcome to The List,
Kevin Bacon had a harrowing experience recently..something you and I deal with every day..He once put on a disguise and spent a day as a regular person, and it SUCKED. Quote, “People were kind of pushing past me, not being nice. Nobody said, ‘I love you.’ I had to wait in line…what a hard life…

OK! Magazine says Ben Affleck is sad that he and JLo didn’t work out. A source says, “Jennifer was Ben’s dream woman. It was drama all the time. Jennifer has a big entourage that follows her around daily — glam squad, videographers, photographers, assistants, trainers. She’s tried to make Ben understand that being Jennifer Lopez is a 24/7 job. She is her brand, she lives and breathes it while Ben can leave his work at the door if he chooses to.

Morgan Wallen tells Billboard magazine that he is striving to maintain normalcy despite his fame. “I try to hold on to as much normalcy as possible. I like driving, so I try to drive as much as I can by myself. I play my shows, I hang out with my son, and I hide pretty much. And I’m OK with that. I’m happy as heck with that.”…until he drinks…and he gets within a few feet of a chair I guess…

Welcome to The List,
Sad news from the soap world. General Hospital icon Anthony Geary has passed away at age 78 due to complications from surgery in Amsterdam. Fans knew him forever as Luke Spencer, one of the most legendary characters daytime TV has ever seen. His longtime on-screen partner Genie Francis said, “No star burned brighter than Tony Geary,” adding that working with him was always unpredictable and exciting. A true original, and a massive loss for television history.

Radar Online says Mariah Carey is allegedly stressed that her Christmas anthem All I Want For Christmas Is You might not dominate the charts this year. Apparently Gen Z is flirting with other holiday jams. An insider says this song is basically Mariah’s financial Super Bowl. If it underperforms, the brand wobbles. Somewhere, Mariah is warming up her whistle register and threatening December itself.

Riley Green had a moment onstage when a fan tossed leopard-print granny panties at him mid-show. He kept singing like a pro while the internet absolutely did not. His tour crew has now started collecting bras, panties, and even hair extensions thrown on stage. Riley said they were going to donate the bras once he learned how expensive they are. Country concerts really are built different.

Blake Shelton told People magazine that Gwen Stefani is the head chef at home, especially when it comes to Italian food. Blake says her lasagna takes all day to make, but he’d eat it for the rest of his life. Somewhere, an Oklahoma grill is quietly weeping, but love is love. And apparently love tastes like lasagna.
