The List for Friday, October 27th 2023

Welcome to The List,

Jason Momoa came back to Norwalk Iowa to promote his Meili Vodka recently and ran into his high school girlfriend!!!  When she heard he was coming, she decided to stand in line so she could catch up with him. She says, ” Seeing him on screen, it’s comforting.  He worked hard all through high school.  What you see, that’s truly what you get.  He truly is a down-to-earth guy . . .

In a blink of an eye….Holiday season programing is here….NBC’s Christmas in Rockefeller Center with host Kelly Clarkson.  Which is cool because Kelly hosted the show twenty years ago, and now she’s finally back!

It’s not uncommon for artists to go “crazy spending” after they first get signed.  Our question is; what was the FIRST thing Miranda Lambert bought after she got her first record deal? “When I signed my first record deal at 19, I bought a four-wheeler. That’s how I got home. My dad had it to like three years ago. Like. Like they don’t make those kind of anymore.”

Swifties are coming after Zach Bryan.  One fan pointed out that THREE of his songs sound suspiciously like Taylor Swift songs.  In hindsight, it probably wasn't wise of him to tweet that Kanye is better than Taylor.

A musician named Fil Henley used audio software to examine Taylor Swift's Eras Tour performances, and he claims they're all the same pre-recorded track.  They're also heavily pitch-corrected….well, at least Travis Kelce’s touchdowns are real…
