The List for Friday, January 8th 2021

Welcome to The List –

Thomas Rhett talks about his new song “What’s Your Country Song” and what it means to him and what he hopes it does for you … “My song, ‘What’s Your Country Song,’ really is about an ode to all the songs that, I think, helped me grow up and finding what your country song was and what your country song is, and how those songs take you back to a really memorable moment in time.”

Niko Moon had some drama on the set of his video for ‘Good Time’ … “So there was one little bit of drama when we were making the “Good Time” music video. And that is the main car that’s in the video that I’m driving is a 1971 Buick GS. And as we’re shooting the music video and I’m standing in front of it singing, it starts to smoke everywhere. I thought we accidentally blew up this car. But come to find out it was just a leaky hose and it was like a $5 fix, but it really had me scared there for a minute.”

Vanna White says she had a blast filming “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune” with Chrissy Metz and Drew Carey. She recalls her most embarrassing wardrobe malfunction after a long dinner break. “I remember I had meatloaf, mashed potatoes, banana pudding the whole thing and I had a very tight outfit to wear after lunch and my belt just popped off.” Sounds like the meatloaf, mashed potatoes and pudding were fine…it was the ‘whole thing’ she should have left alone “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune” continues for the next eight weeks in primetime on ABC.

The National Enquirer claims Ben Affleck is reprising his role as Batman in ”The Flash” and a Justice League film because of the money especially when he gets $5 million for a couple of weeks work. Ben says now he will play Batman as long as they keep paying him!

Jimmy Fallon has news about the ‘Puppy Bowl’ this year. “I saw that Discovery has confirmed the Puppy Bowl will go on as scheduled this year… whew! said absolutely no one…”

You can catch The List weekdays at 2:20 and 4:20 on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1

The List for Friday, January 3rd 2025

Welcome to The List,

Actress Kristen Bell is eyeing a talk show now that Ellen DeGeneres has retired. A source says, “acting is not exactly her first love. Kirsten’s gift is connecting with people.” They think if she tries it…she’ll be a hit…

-----

‘’Only Murders In The Building’’ star Selena Gomez and fiancé Benny Blanco need to sort out some wedding details…and he’s letting her do just that…smart man…. Selena adores Benny, and she’s got zero doubt in her mind that they’ll last. She wouldn’t have said yes to his proposal otherwise.’’  Well, we hope not….

-----

Cody Johnson has had one heck of a 2024, and he’s looking to build on that – and his career in general – as he enters into 2025. Focusing on his music isn’t hard at all. In fact, it’s become second nature to him.  He says after his wife and kids.. country music is all he lives for…

-----

After rocking Times Square for Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, Carrie Underwood spent New Year's Day somewhere where she also feels comfortable: Her kitchen.
