Welcome to The List,
The 95th Academy Awards air this Sunday, this year it’ll cost $58.6 million to put on. That includes $24,700 for the 50,000 square foot red carpet. Last year’s show was 220 minutes long . . . which is three hours and 40 minutes…last year’s Oscars is viewed as the second worst viewership and rating in the history of the Oscars.

Brett Young talks about how he got to choose the name for his child and it’s kinda smooth… “The only way to get my way is to not tell her what my favorite is. It’s like if she comes out and shows you a black dress and then comes out and shows you a red dress, and goes, ‘Which one do you like?’ If you want the red one, say you like the black one. Like that’s the way to do it.” So he completely left it alone and two days later…they named their baby Rowan…which is exactly what he wanted…

Robert Blake, from “In Cold Blood” and “Baretta”, died yesterday of heart disease. He’s probably best known for being acquitted in the murder of his wife, and then losing a civil case against her family . . . just a few years after O.J. Simpson blazed that trail. Robert Blake was 89 years old…and that’s the name of that tune….

Beetlejuice 2 is finally happening!! There isn’t an official word from Tim Burton or Warner Brothers yet, so don’t get TOO excited. But multiple sources have told “The Hollywood Reporter” it’s in the works. Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder are supposedly returning as Beetlejuice and Lydia. And Jenna Ortega is in talks to play Lydia’s daughter . . .

The Oscars are this weekend, and generally speaking, America has MORE than enough award shows. But like it or not, we’re getting another. There will be a new one called “The People’s Choice Country Awards” in September. It’s an off-shoot of “The People’s Choice Awards”, which are voted on by fans. The new show will take place at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville and will air on NBC and Peacock.
