Dexter-11/24/2020

Welcome to The List,

So, apparently Killer Klowns from Outer Space is getting a remake over at Amazon—and wait for it—Ryan Gosling is one of the producers. Yeah, Mr. “Hey Girl” is bringing back creepy alien clowns who cocoon people in cotton candy. Because sure, why not? If Barbie can break the box office, killer clowns can absolutely ruin your childhood sleepovers all over again.

Bryan Adams has been LYING to us since 1985! That whole “got my first real six-string at the five and dime”? LIES! Turns out he got it from a music shop while visiting his uncle at age 12. Oh, and he was only NINE in the Summer of ’69. So basically the entire anthem of our teenage rebellion is one big Canadian fairy tale. Cool, Bryan. Next you'll tell us “Heaven” was about a parking ticket.

Morgan Wallen just shut down the rumor mill like a bouncer at closing time. Everyone thought his first-ever female collab was gonna be with Megan Moroney, Ella Langley, or Miranda Lambert. But Morgan just said, “Ain’t nobody guessed it right yet.” So either it's someone totally unexpected… or he’s just trolling us from the mullet throne.

Thomas Rhett pulled a real-life “Achy Breaky Ankle” at Bridgestone Arena—dude took a tumble down some stairs while joining Forrest Frank on stage. But like a true country legend, he kept performing in pain... then rolled out in a wheelchair with his wife pushing him like it was NASCAR pit lane. Turns out it’s just a sprain, and yes—he did make a joke about it on Instagram, because of course he did…

Welcome to The List,

Sheryl Crow and LeAnn Rimes are crashing “The Voice” as mega mentors! Sheryl’s teaming up with Kelsea Ballerini and Michael Bublé’s crews, while LeAnn Rimes is riding shotgun with John Legend and Adam Levine’s artists. The playoff rounds kick off April 28th, and honestly—if those singers don’t cry at least once during mentoring, did they even get mentored?

-----

Post Malone is doubling—nah, tripling—down on country! After “F-1 Trillion” blew up, he hit Nashville twice more and cranked out 35 new songs. He’s hangin’ with Ernest, Hardy, and Thomas Rhett like it’s a honky-tonk slumber party. And no, his next album is NOT called “F-1 Quadrillion”… but how ICONIC would that be? Posty hits the road with Jelly Roll April 29th, and yes—it’s the Big [Butt] Tour. We said what we said.

-----

Word is Carrie Underwood’s being too sweet on “American Idol.” One insider says, “She’s just not bringing the drama.” Apparently, the other judges are over her “pity party” vibes—and yes, Miley Cyrus was Plan A. But hey, when you want fire and settle for fairy dust, you get nicey-nice Carrie. Great for church… not so great for ratings.

-----

Lainey Wilson’s gettin’ hitched! Wedding plans are movin’ slow, but they’re movin’. When asked if she wants a huge, celeb-stacked bash or a quiet, cozy “I do”—she said, “It’s gonna be small.” Which is wild, considering her career’s anything but. A low-key queen planning a low-key wedding? We’re here for it.
