The List for Monday, March 29th 2021

Welcome to The List –

Brett Young says it’s going to be hard to top his hit “Lady” because it’s so personal  … ” This is literally a song about my wife to my daughter. I don’t know that I’ll ever do anything that personal. Not because I don’t want to; I just don’t know that there’s something that personal that I can ever do again.”

Thomas Rhett Says “What’s Your Country Song” Includes A Shout-Out To His Father, Rhett Akins … ” I remember the first line that I spit out was, ‘Are you heart broke because you know that ain’t your truck in her drive,’ literally as a joke, just cause dad was sitting there.  And as we started to write the song, it felt like it just fit.  It was pretty funny, but I’m glad Dad got a shout out in that song.”

The Wrap says Sharon Osbourne is leaving “The Talk”. She and her co-hosts got into an argument after she defended Piers Morgan’s offensive comments about Meghan Markle. Perez Hilton says Sharon plans to sue CBS. They quote a source as saying, “She feels a few suits at CBS have really have got it in for her. Sharon won’t let this go.”

The Voice is scheduled to begin its first Battle Rounds of Season 20 tonight, but you’ll notice a new face sitting in coach Kelly Clarkson’s chair. Kelly will be absent from the show due to an illness, so if you’re wondering where she is, there’s no need to worry. The Battle Rounds were filmed in January, and Clarkson will soon be back in her red chair on the show — but in the meantime, she called in country music star Kelsea Ballerini to take her place.

You can catch The List weekdays at 2:20 and 4:20 on Iowa’s BEST Country KIX 101.1
