The List for Friday July 31st 2020

Welcome to The List –

Keith Urban hit “God Whispered Your Name” the second single from his upcoming eleventh studio album “The Speed of Now Part 1” currently sitting at number 13 on the charts. and Keith is giving us some insight into the song. “‘God Whispered Your Name’ tells my journey. Going through a season in life of being very lost and lonely and confused and not knowing how to get out of that … and then the chorus hits and everything starts to open up and become clearer.”

Darius Rucker And Clint Black teamed up with Tracy Lawrence for a special live stream last night to raise money for St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. Darius says it felt good to perform live again “Just to get out and sing with musician playing with you, and know somewhere people are watching you…all that stuff, I miss that and I want that to come back right now. I didn’t know how much I missed it till I didn’t have it. You know what I mean?” Now in its 11th year, the annual event has raised over $2 million to date

Stories of the Ellen DeGeneres staff are just getting more and more strange…Neil Breen was a producer on Australia’s Today Show and claims that Ellen’s producers told him not to look at or talk to her…was she a nice person though? “I’m not blaming Ellen cause I didn’t get to talk to her…I wasn’t allowed to so I don’t know whether she’s a nice person or not, I wouldn’t have a clue. But, I can tell you the people who worked with her walked on egg shells the whole time. The whole thing was totally Bizarre.”

Dad Jokes…we all have one…or have heard one..usually bad ones but Kerry Washington is no different the ABC drama series ‘Scandal’ actress shares her fathers dad joke. “When is the element table reviewed? Periodically!” Kerry says her father has a great sense of humor.

The List for Thursday, April 10th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Bailey Zimmerman Says The Fans Inspire Him To Write And Perform Music ... “For me, it’s always been the stories, like, the stories you hear from people when I’m out on the road…watching people cry really gets me when I’m, like, playing and stuff. That’s really that’s just like…that’s why I write music, Adding – We’ve all been kinda through the same stuff!!

-----

Jason Aldean says the worst karaoke move ever is when artists sing their own songs. According to him, if you’re gonna grab the mic, don’t flex—have fun. He prefers belting out stuff he’d never do on stage—like Neil Diamond. Because nothing says “hardcore country boy” like a drunk “Sweet Caroline” with jazz hands and a beer.

-----

Cuba Gooding Jr. is reportedly stressed over his connection to Diddy’s upcoming trafficking trial. Sources say Cuba’s trying to live the straight-and-narrow—no more headlines, no more grabby hands. But now he’s worried he’ll be pulled back into court like it’s a bad sequel. He's sweating bullets and praying the only role he plays next... isn’t “surprise witness.”

-----

A People Magazine staffer is leading a full-blown campaign to crown Jack Black as the next Sexiest Man Alive. She calls him a triple threat with jungle cat moves and “a devilish grin”—honestly, she sounds in heat. He’s funny, charitable, loves his fans, and may or may not be hotter than Jude Law in ‘The Holiday’. Honestly? We support this beefcake energy.

The List for Wednesday, April 9th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Carrie Underwood hit the stage with Papa Roach in Vegas, belting out “Last Resort” and their duet “Leave a Light On.” Sounds fun, right? Well, not so much for the fans, who clearly didn’t want a mashup of country and rock. Guess some lights were left on... just not for the right reasons.

-----

Jennifer Garner’s boyfriend, John Miller, is allegedly in therapy because Ben Affleck just won’t stop showing up. Holidays? Ben’s there. Dinner? Ben’s there. It’s like he’s got a VIP pass to their relationship. John’s starting to feel like the other guy in his own love story. Maybe Ben should start paying rent at this point.

-----

Luke Combs is all about quality over quantity with his music—no 20-song albums here! He’s got 40-50 songs ready, but he’s not into watering it down. Last time? Just 12 tracks. He’s basically saying, “Less is more, folks”—and we’re here for it. Who needs fillers when you’ve got hits?

-----

Tom Cruise is back in Mission: Impossible doing what he does best: hanging upside down from an airplane at 62! Yeah, he’s still got it—one-handed, no less. And rumor has it, he’s planning to do this crazy stunt stuff until he’s 80. At this point, he’s more Mission: Improbable than impossible!  The trailer for Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, is out now…the movie is in theaters May 23rd.  See the trailer HERE
