Welcome to The List,
Reba McEntire is going to perform her song, ‘Somehow You Do’, At The Oscars … “The first time I got to sing on the Oscars, it was right after the plane crash. I sang ‘Checking Out Of This Heartbreak Hotel’ for Postcards From the Edge.. So, I’m very honored that Diane asked me to sing the song, and we are both so thrilled to get nominated.” The Plane crash she’s referring to was the March 1991 plane crash that claimed eight members of her band and crew. Her song, “Somehow You Do,” is nominated for ‘Best Original Song’ from the film, ”Four Days Gold”, at the 94th Academy Awards this Sunday 7 Central on ABC.

Daniel Radcliffe tells Kelly Clarkson how he messes with the paparazzi. Something he noticed while doing a play in London “I suddenly realized after being lazy that I hadn’t changed my clothes for a few days.

So, I was just like I’ll continue to wear THIS!” Daniel stars with Channing Tatum and Sandra Bullock in ‘The Lost City’ in theaters now.
