Welcome to The List,
The Sun says Carrie Underwood’s future on American Idol is “uncertain.” Basically, She realized L.A. traffic, network execs, and pretending to care about karaoke auditions isn’t worth the Botox. Word is she’s homesick and done with playing Hollywood Barbie. So don’t be shocked if she Carrie-underwhelms us with a dramatic exit.

The Tennessee Board of Parole wants to pardon Jelly Roll’s past felony. Yep, the guy who sounds like a breakfast menu item might soon be squeaky clean on paper! Jelly told the board, “I want to be an inspiration.” And he is—mainly for anyone who thinks face tattoos will ruin your job prospects. Spoiler: They don’t...

Morgan Wallen and Post Malone now have their own plush toys. Because nothing says “bad boy energy” like a $29.99 stuffed version of yourself. TikTok's Country Plushie is selling them—and no one’s sure if Morgan or Posty even approved. But hey, who needs permission when you’ve got polyester and a dream?

Apparently, Meghan Markle’s podcast is getting the cold shoulder from A-listers. No Beyoncé. No Taylor. Not even a “Who dis?” from Hailey Bieber. A source says the show just isn’t landing. Which is Hollywood-speak for “We’ve all muted her number.” Yikes. Even the phone is like, new number, who Duchess?
