The List for Friday July 3rd 2020

Welcome to The List I’m Jonathan Knight….

With Covid-19 on everyone’s mind, I can tell you Willie Nelson will NOT be slowing down because of it this holiday season…In fact, he’ll be having a busy 4th of July weekend: First he releases his 70th solo studio album, “First Rose of Spring,” today. Then tomorrow, Willie’s annual “4th of July Picnic” a hybrid live-stream/concert-film event in the virtual countryside. Tickets for the digital event — which range from $35 before tomorrow to $45 the day of the event — can be purchased at WilliePicnic.com, where the festivities will stream beginning at 4:30.

And because we’re talking about the 4th of July, lets talk traditions…Thomas Rhett has plenty.. “My girls love to put red, white and blue face paint on. Lauren usually puts ‘em in, like, an American flag ballerina outfit, and they love watching fireworks. They love grilling hot dogs and making s’mores, and we usually do it out at our farm with like 150 people. But this year, it probably is gonna look like we’re gonna have a few less people hanging out with us, but we do love to hang at Fourth of July and love getting to just celebrate that good American tradition.”

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s “Hamilton” is on Disney + … A filmed live performance of “Hamilton” is streaming now on Disney+. Lin-Manuel Miranda is excited that more people will now see the show than ever before. He says the word of mouth with “Hamilton” has been unbelievable over the past few years. Lin recalls how he used to mess up the lyrics to the show. Twitter users made sure to let him know about it. Lin isn’t sure what will happen with Broadway after the pandemic ends, but is glad that they could bring “Hamilton” into people’s homes. “Hamilton” airs on Disney+ today.

The Daily Mirror claims Tiger King star Carole Baskin has joined ‘Cameo’ and is now doing custom videos for fans. She charges $100 for shout outs, birthday greetings and hellos….I just got a shiver….

Can’t get out for fireworks? NBC has you covered with the Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks Spectacular. 8pm Central Celebrating America’s birthday in New York with music, a special performance by National Youth Poet Laureate Amanda Gorman and fireworks; performers include Black Eyed Peas, The Killers, Lady A, John Legend, Tim McGraw and Brad Paisley.

Have a safe and fun 4th of July weekend, and that will do it for The List, entertainment news from the Sunset Strip to Nashville’s Music Row…you can catch The List, live weekdays at 2:20 and 4:20 on IBC KIX 101.1

The List for Wednesday, November 20th 2024

Welcome to The List,

Jamey Johnson was charged with speeding and one felony count of a controlled substance.  He was caught with somewhere between a half an ounce and 10 pounds of pot.  That’s kinda like getting a speeding ticket and saying your speed was between 55 and 100 mph!!  In the state of Tennessee, that is a class E felony, punishable by up to SIX years in prison.

"Oh, yeah. It’s great. I mean, any time is is unbelievable. You know, I think it’s every time it’s really hard to believe, honestly. I didn’t ever think that I would get this far, so, I’m just really thankful for it is all. Being nominated again for entertainer of the year is incredible."  The CMA Awards air tonight on ABC.

Rocker Ozzy Osbourne’s wife Sharon Osbourne fears she will never regain weight after using Ozempic. A source says,  "The weight loss drugs have wrecked her metabolism and there's no going back for her. She simply can't put the weight back on that she needs to regain a healthy look. It just shows the dangers of these 'quick fix' cures. They are not good for the body. Her weight is on an irreversible downward spiral."
