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

The List,

"Country star Megan Moroney just proved she's not above getting her hands dirty—or glittery. After a show in Athens, Georgia, she helped staff clean up by sweeping up confetti with a dustpan like a sparkly Cinderella. Fans called her a 'helpful queen,' and honestly, same—because if I drop glitter at home, it stays there forever. Respect to a woman who can sing a ballad and operate a Swiffer."

-----

"Alec Baldwin’s new reality show, The Baldwins, is bombing harder than a first date with no Wi-Fi. Only 420,000 people tuned in—which, by TV standards, is like your mom and a couple raccoons. Apparently, Alec even blamed his wife Hilaria for not bringing enough sparkle. Yikes. When your marriage and your ratings are both circling the drain... maybe don’t record it?"

-----

"Over 47,000 people want to rename Nashville’s airport after Dolly Parton. Yes, Dolly Parton International Airport—because nothing says 'safe landing' like 9-inch acrylics and rhinestones. Honestly, I’d absolutely fly 'Departin’ from Parton' Airlines. The flight attendants would sing you lullabies, and your baggage would come out fully bedazzled."

-----

"If you're one of those people quietly rooting for Harry and Meghan to split—first, you’re messy. Second, here's your gossip: Harry reportedly hates that Meghan’s showing off their kids on social media to boost her brand. He wants privacy. She wants Malibu beach days and matching mommy-kid influencer looks. So basically—it’s 'The Crown: California Edition.' Stay tuned or just follow her on Instagram."
