Welcome to The List,
One of the funniest comedy franchises of all time is getting a reboot. A new “Naked Gun” movie is in the works, starring Liam Neeson. That’s an interesting choice, because his name is so similar to the star of the original movies, Leslie Nielsen. And, just like Leslie, Neeson goes into it having been known primarily for serious roles. This isn’t official, but there’s word that Neeson will play the SON of Leslie Nielsen’s character, Lieutenant Frank Drebin. I want to know who’s going to play Nordberg…if you know…you know….

Since Blake Shelton is leaving “The Voice” after the next season, Taste of Country put together a poll to see which country artist people would like to see fill his shoes. The most popular choices are Brad Paisley, Reba McEntire, and Tim McGraw. Who do you think you’d like to see in the red chair?

Some play Basketball…others just go for a run or lift weights on tour…Now…Pickleball seems to be getting a lot of attention lately. And in case you missed it, Maren Morris is on the cover of “Pickleball Magazine”. Oh, you didn’t get this months’ copy? Well, she started to play it during her latest tour with her crew members… so now you know…

Maren Morris tells ABC that she doesn’t want her son becoming a musician. “As a parent, you support any of their dreams. But my husband and I are like, ‘please don’t end up in the music industry!’ We joke that we want him to be, like, an accountant.” Does she really not like what she does that much?

Welcome to The List,
Did you catch Beyonce’s performance during half-time on Wednesday’s game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans? She performed a medley of songs off her album, “Cowboy Carter,” released earlier this year. Post Malone and Shaboozey, who are featured on “Cowboy Carter,” made special appearances during the Christmas Day performance.

Carly Pearce spent some time on tour with Tim McGraw earlier this year, and although she’s an avid runner and big into other fitness regimens like Orange Theory and spinning, one workout she has no plans to incorporate into her routine is Tim’s intense CrossFit training. “Yeah, I’m not gonna be a part of Tim McGraw’s workouts because quite frankly, I don’t think I could keep up. I did pull the tire up and I got it up, but he said that he will flip the tire the length of like a football field, y’all. And I’m just not going to do that. I will stick to running. If Tim McGraw wants to do a running challenge, let’s go.”

Some people may not know that one of Justin Moore’s favorite hobbies is cooking. He loves to try new recipes and often watches the Food Network for inspiration. We wondered if Justin has ever considered putting all those family recipes and his other favorites into a cookbook. “I would certainly be up for it. I’ve not ever thought about it, but I think it would be somethin’ that would be fun to do.”
