The List for Thursday, April 15th 2021

Welcome to The List,

Award season is in the air and everyone is talking about the ACM Awards…Looking forward to some exciting performances, history making events and Eric Church, he’s going as the reigning CMA Entertainer of the year “I felt a responsibility, I know what that award means to the format; I know what that means historically, and I tried to live up to that. That nomination means more to me now than it probably ever has, because we’ve won. ”

Carly Pearce is nominated for the ACM  Female Artist of the Year Award…and she talks about her feelings on it. “I think about the dreams that I’ve had of being nominated in this category. I think as a woman in country music, if you grew up the way that I did, wanting this so badly, you dreamt of your name being called in that. And so I truly am not just saying this. I feel like I’ve already won just being in those five.” The ACM Awards air this Sunday on CBS

Kyra Sedgwick says her husband Kevin Bacon is so handy around the house..so, why not ask him to help with a bikini wax… “There was a moment were I thought, I can’t pull the strip off, neither one of us could figure out how to pull it off do we need to go to the hospital.  I didn’t have to luckily, just the 1..2..3..and hope for the best.” If it involves a car, boat, the lawn or hammering a nail…were fine ladies…but nothing to do with hot wax please.

On Monday night’s episode of American Idol, viewers were shocked to learn that Wyatt Pike dropped out of the competition after making it into the Top 16. Host Ryan Seacrest announced the news on the broadcast, but he did not reveal any details about Pike’s sudden departure. As Deadline noted, Pike has since spoken out about the reason behind his American Idol exit on his Instagram saying only that he left for “personal reasons”

Hamilton, Ozzie and Mickey

One of our KIX Critters of the week is Hamilton!

He is a 5-year-old mixed breed who came in as a stray, and he’s ready to start a new chapter in his life with someone special.

This shy guy may need some time to warm up, but with patience and love, he’ll reward you with loyalty and affection. Hamilton is a true outdoors enthusiast! He loves spending time outside, where he begins to come out of his shell and show his playful side. He’s looking for a patient and understanding person who can help him build trust and confidence.

Good news for dog lovers – Hamilton does well with other dogs! If you already have a dog, we’ll arrange a meet and greet to make sure they’re a perfect match.

Hamilton's adoption fee is 50% off the normal price!!

Hamilton and his buddy Ripley!
