Welcome to The List,

Once again…I was stepped over…for John Krasinski he’s "People" magazine's Sexiest Man Alive for 2024.  His reaction when he found out was, quote, "Just immediate blackout, actually.  Zero thoughts.  Other than maybe I'm being punked."

It’s not uncommon for artists to go “crazy spending” after they first get signed.  Our question is; what was the FIRST thing Miranda Lambert bought after she got her first record deal? “When I signed my first record deal at 19, I bought a four-wheeler. That’s how I got home. My dad had it to like three years ago. Like. Like they don’t make those kind of anymore.”

-----

The wait is over…the trailer for "Mission: Impossible 8", which is now called "The Final Reckoning". Has been released.  Part 1 “Dead Reckoning” came out July of last year…Part 2 is due in theaters NEXT year.  We have the trailer for you on our website Kix web dot com…

Swifties are coming after Zach Bryan.  One fan pointed out that THREE of his songs sound suspiciously like Taylor Swift songs.  In hindsight, it probably wasn't wise of him to tweet that Kanye is better than Taylor.
