Welcome to The List,

Carrie Underwood tells Billboard magazine that she’s just recently gotten into gardening. ” The past few years, I plan it, think about it, work in there. I’m literally in my garden every single day. Right now, I have lots of tomatoes, bell peppers, snap peas, broccoli, onions, zucchini, yellow squash, watermelon, honeydew melon — a lot of things.” Wow not even kidding!!! That’s a serious garden….

‘Thor: Love and Thunder” director Taika Waititi tells CBS that he shows Chris Hemsworth’s bare backside in the movie. If you’ve seen the trailer there is a scene where Thor loses his clothing and a pixilated panel is placed over his backside…well, Taika says.. “In the movie, it’s not pixelated, you get the full Hems’ Worth. The full worthiness! With Chris, he’s worked so hard on that. It’s so many squats! It’d be depriving humanity if I didn’t show that. The movie is out on July 8th

Keith Urban is fantastic on stage and in the studio.  He tells American Songwriter.com that he has ONE person to thank for that… Johnny Cash.  Saying he saw Johnny Cash in concert when he was five years old and that’s all it took.  He wanted people to react to HIM the way they did to Johnny….

Austin Butler, who plays Elvis in the new biopic about The King, says he wore fake chest hair in the film. The hair was fastened to a bodysuit that he wore while playing an aging Elvis. Variety magazine says Austin underwent 90 costume changes while playing Elvis. The film opens today

Who say THIS coming…Jimmie Allen has an addiction…to BOWLING!! He got addicted during the pandemic.  How bad is it? He practiced eight hours a day, five days a week . . . and now he’s in five different bowling leagues, and plans to try out for the Professional Bowlers Association. So how does he do this while maintaining a singing career, and being married with three kids?  Quote, “I only sleep about three-and-a-half hours a night.  If I get two, I feel like I’ve slept.”  (Jimmie’s third album, “Tulip Drive”, is out today.)

The List for Thursday, April 3rd 2025

Welcome to The List,

John Wick: The Franchise That Won’t Die! John Wick may have bitten the bullet in Chapter 4, but like a bad ex, he’s back for more! Not only is Keanu returning for "John Wick 5," but we’re also getting an animated prequel and a spin-off starring Donnie Yen’s blind assassin, Caine. At this point, the only thing that can actually kill John Wick… is nothing.

-----

Blake Shelton’s “No-Frills” Rider Some artists demand rose petals and private chefs—Blake Shelton just wants Sprite Zero, vodka, and ice. No fancy snacks, no ridiculous requests. Just a man, his drink, and a guaranteed good time. Honestly, respect.

-----

Diddy’s Latest Lawsuit: What Even Is This?! A new accuser claims Diddy’s Miami “freak-off” party was more like a bad episode of Black Mirror. With big names like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and LeBron James allegedly present, we’re all wondering… was this a lawsuit or an Illuminati fanflic? Diddy’s legal team denies everything, of course.

-----

J.Lo: Single and Picky Jennifer Lopez is trying to date again, but she’s still hung up on Ben Affleck. Meanwhile, A-Rod is sliding into her texts, hoping for a second chance. The real challenge? Finding a guy willing to meet her sky-high standards. Someone call NASA—we need astronauts for this one!
