The List for Friday,

Welcome to The List,

John Wick: The Franchise That Won’t Die! John Wick may have bitten the bullet in Chapter 4, but like a bad ex, he’s back for more! Not only is Keanu returning for "John Wick 5," but we’re also getting an animated prequel and a spin-off starring Donnie Yen’s blind assassin, Caine. At this point, the only thing that can actually kill John Wick… is nothing.

Blake Shelton’s “No-Frills” Rider Some artists demand rose petals and private chefs—Blake Shelton just wants Sprite Zero, vodka, and ice. No fancy snacks, no ridiculous requests. Just a man, his drink, and a guaranteed good time. Honestly, respect.

-----

Diddy’s Latest Lawsuit: What Even Is This?! A new accuser claims Diddy’s Miami “freak-off” party was more like a bad episode of Black Mirror. With big names like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and LeBron James allegedly present, we’re all wondering… was this a lawsuit or an Illuminati fanflic? Diddy’s legal team denies everything, of course.

-----

J.Lo: Single and Picky Jennifer Lopez is trying to date again, but she’s still hung up on Ben Affleck. Meanwhile, A-Rod is sliding into her texts, hoping for a second chance. The real challenge? Finding a guy willing to meet her sky-high standards. Someone call NASA—we need astronauts for this one!

Welcome to The List,

Country star Cole Swindell just admitted something we can ALL relate to—he used to hate the sound of his own voice. In a recent interview, he said, “Nobody really likes hearing themselves talk.” Well, Cole, join the club. If you've ever cringed at your own voicemail or nearly thrown your phone across the room after hearing yourself in a video, you get it. Luckily for Cole, he powered through the awkwardness and now has multiple hit songs. The rest of us? Still avoiding voice memos at all costs.

Kelsea Ballerini fans are dedicated—but one took it to the next level at her recent concert in Salt Lake City. The fan asked her to sign his actual divorce decree, thanking her for helping him through his breakup. Ballerini politely declined (probably a smart legal move), but the interaction quickly went viral. The real question is: Was his ex there, and did she demand joint custody of the concert tickets?

-----

Kelly Clarkson is reportedly considering leaving The Kelly Clarkson Show to take over for Hoda Kotb on The Today Show. Why? Because talk show hosting is exhausting, and she wants more time with her kids. Honestly, fair. Running a daily talk show is like throwing a dinner party every single day—but with celebrity guests and an audience judging your every move. An NBC insider says the switch is a real possibility, meaning morning TV could soon have more Kelly and possibly… fewer impromptu Hoda dance breaks?

-----

A new Netflix rom-com is doing the unthinkable—convincing people to make major life decisions. The Life List, starring Sofia Carson, follows a woman completing her late mother’s bucket list, and apparently, it’s inspiring real-life viewers to dump their toxic partners and quit their terrible jobs. So if you see a co-worker watching it on their lunch break, brace yourself—they might be handing in their two weeks’ notice by the end of the day.

People magazine says Val Kilmer, known for Top Gun, has passed away at 65 from pneumonia. The actor had battled throat cancer. Kilmer leaves behind his daughter, Mercedes, and son, Jack.
