Welcome to The List,
At a time when it seems like every horror property is being dug up and re-animated, the one title that HASN’T come up is “Friday the 13th” until now.. A PREQUEL SERIES is in development at Peacock. No plot details have been announced yet. But there’s talk it could be something like the “Psycho” prequel series “Bates Motel”. So if you’re hoping for the Jason with the hockey mask and the machete, that might not be what this is.

Jason and Brittany Aldean posted a very funny Halloween video of themselves doing a news report as “Anchorman” characters Ron Burgundy and Veronica Corningstone. It’s filled with jokes about “woke culture” and their beef with Maren Morris. They do a story about Luke Bryan “driving the country girls crazy” simply by eating peanut butter and Kane Brown on TikTok dancing, They close it off with Ron saying, “stay country” . . . and Veronica insisting everyone “stay woke”.

Hardy and Caleigh Ryan got married on Saturday in Nashville. And Lauren Alaina CAUGHT the bouquet. She said, quote, “Hardy told me I was next before I even caught it.” And no, she didn’t wear white, her dress was mint.

Epic stream says Ben Affleck is paying for Jennifer Lopez’s expensive tastes. A source tells the website, “He’s like her personal bank account. He pays for their private jet flights, their vacations, hotels, lavish gifts from clothing to jewelry, and fine dining whenever they go out. It’s pretty ironic since he’s not worth nearly what she is — but he knows he’s paying off an emotional, as well as financial, debt.”…so, a marriage of guilt?

Mariah Carey has set a new standard for the start of the Christmas season, and she has claimed the season all for herself. The singer posted a dramatic video of herself dressed up for Halloween on Monday night, but when the clock struck midnight, she changed straight into her Christmas costume. The “All I Need for Christmas” singer continues to lean into her holiday stardom.

Lee Brice got a head start on the holidays by releasing a new Christmas song. It’s called “Santa Claus Was My Uber Driver” . . . and it was inspired by a real-life Uber driver who picked him up while dressed as Jolly Old St. Nick.
