The List for Thursday, November 30th 2023

Welcome to The List,

Shannen Doherty’s stage 4 cancer has spread to her bones . . . but that doesn’t mean she’s done fighting. She tells “People” magazine, quote, ” I’m not done with living.  I’m not done with loving.  I’m not done with creating.  I’m not done with hopefully changing things for the better.” Shannen was originally diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015.  She had a mastectomy, followed by chemotherapy and radiation.  In April of 2017 she announced she was in remission.

He’ll receive his star in the category of Recording.  Guest speakers for the ceremony have yet to be announced… The event will be live-streamed exclusively at walkoffame.com.

The News International says NBC is allegedly willing to pay “whatever it takes” for Meghan Markle to return to a new spin-off of her hit show ‘’Suits’’. With the success of the show on Netflix, Markle could become one of the world’s highest-paid TV stars. She could either commit to a new series or be offered lucrative guest appearances.

We asked Chris Stapleton about his new song “White Horse” and believe it or not…the idea came from a “Lone Ranger” movie. “We were out in Los Angeles, it was about I think probably late 2012, early 2013, and there was a movie called the Lone Ranger that was coming out, and I walked in the room to write with Dan at his house, and he said, ‘Hey they’re looking for songs for this Lone Ranger movie.’ I said, ‘Cool What do you know about it?’ He goes, ‘Well, we don’t really know anything.’ I was like, ‘Well, let’s just make a song that might sound like that.” So, out of that session came that rockin country hit we have today…

The New “Wonka” movie looks to be a load of fun.  But, is Timothée Chalamet’s “Wonka” a prequel to Gene Wilder’s “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”, or Johnny Depp’s “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”? Well, it sounds like Timothée was more influenced by Wilder.  That’s the one he saw first, and the one he, quote, “grew up on,” and he says he loves it. “Wonka” hits theaters December 15th.

Elle King and Rachel Smith from “Entertainment Tonight” will co-host “New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash” on CBS and Paramount+.  It starts at 10:30 p.m. Eastern on New Year’s Eve.  It’ll include performances from Elle, Lainey Wilson, Thomas Rhett, and Lynyrd Skynyrd.
