Maren Morris is no slouch in the kitchen with her favorite and Tik Tok famous pasta dish with the Momofuku chili crunch she likes to add as a secret ingredient. She got to be a guest judge on the Food Network’s ‘Beat Bobby Flay’  “I love the fast-paced-ness of that show. And so, when they invited me to be on it, I jumped at the chance because I wanted to see what the set looked like in person, and it was just a dream come true.”  Maren was on episode two of season 30 titled ‘Bobby, Why Don’t You Just Meet Me at the Griddle?’

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
