The List for Friday, March 25th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Reba McEntire is going to perform her song, ‘Somehow You Do’, At The Oscars … “The first time I got to sing on the Oscars, it was right after the plane crash. I sang ‘Checking Out Of This Heartbreak Hotel’ for Postcards From the Edge.. So, I’m very honored that Diane asked me to sing the song, and we are both so thrilled to get nominated.”  The Plane crash she’s referring to was the March 1991 plane crash that claimed eight members of her band and crew.  Her song, “Somehow You Do,” is nominated for ‘Best Original Song’ from the film, ”Four Days Gold”, at the 94th Academy Awards this Sunday 7 Central on ABC.

Daniel Radcliffe tells Kelly Clarkson how he messes with the paparazzi. Something he noticed while doing a play in London “I suddenly realized after being lazy that I hadn’t changed my clothes for a few days. That they were not there and it was probably because I’m wearing the same thing and it all looks like photo’s from the same day. So, I was just like I’ll continue to wear THIS!” Daniel stars with Channing Tatum and Sandra Bullock in ‘The Lost City’ in theaters now.

Thomas Rhett tells Mashed.com that he’s willing to try anything once. “I think with me and my family, we, in a roundabout way, are down for pretty much everything. We have lived by the motto of the adventurous spirit. I bet he draws the line at Pineapple on pizza though…

The List for Thursday, March 13th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Imagine paying good money to see Chris Stapleton live… only to take a nap. That’s exactly what an Australian couple did—out cold in the middle of the concert! Their friends, being absolute menaces, surrounded them with empty beer cans. When the couple woke up, they had a full-blown hangover without the fun part.

The List for Wednesday, March 12th 2025

Welcome to The List,

We saw THIS coming a mile away…Jennifer Garner has reportedly been given an ultimatum by her boyfriend.  If he sees another picture like the one of Jennifer and Ben Affleck cuddling at paintball, he's out the door.

Blake Shelton just can't seem to stop with all the onstage PDA.  First Trace Adkins told him no more kisses on the cheek.  Now this . . .A video of Blake bringing an 84-year-old lady on stage for a birthday hug is making the rounds online.  It was pretty cute.  It happened two weekends ago at his show in Greensboro, North Carolina.  She was out in the crowd with a sign that said, "May I hug you for my 84th birthday?" (WARNING:  He says the word "damn" early on in the video, and the song lyrics include the phrase "wild-a**."  She shows up on stage around 1:20.)

-----

RadarOnline.com says the Oscars bosses are considering offering Chris Rock a huge sum to host the 2026 Academy Awards in hopes he can inject excitement back into the show. It seems he has unfinished business following the Will Smith affair and he'd be a huge audience winner.
