The List for Thursday, January 5th 2022

Welcome to The List,

Super Bowl 57 airs on Sunday, February 12th on Fox.  The game takes place at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, with Rihanna headlining the halftime show. All that is good to know…but what about the commercials? For now we can confirm that Walter White isn’t dead after all.  He’s returning for a Super Bowl commercial for Frito-Lay’s PopCorners. Bryan Cranston shared a picture of himself as Walter holding a bag of chips, with the caption, “Breaking Soon.”

Entertainment Weekly put together a list of the 20 best guilty pleasure movies.  It includes “Overboard”“Twilight”, and “Point Break”. Others making that list include “Pretty Woman”, “Miss Congeniality” and “Showgirls”…so, if your favorite movie is on the list don’t feel bad…it’s a guilty pleasure. Well except for “Showgirls” shame on you.

Brantley Gilbert says he’s met a lot of people in the music business, but the one guy who has impressed him the most, is Blake Shelton.  He says Blake has always been “solid, kind, and welcoming.”  He adds, quote, “I don’t know that you’ll meet anybody that’ll say a whole lot of negative stuff about Blake.”

—–

In his new book, Prince Harry says Prince William once physically attacked him when they were arguing about his relationship with Meghan Markle.  He says William shoved him to the ground, but later apologized.   At least that’s what Harry says in his upcoming autobiography, “Spare”. “Spare” comes out next Tuesday.  The title refers to the fact that William is the HEIR to the throne, and Harry is the SPARE, in case anything happens to him.

Jimmie Allen will be a speaker at the undergraduate ceremony of his alma mater, Delaware State University, in May.  He said, quote, “I met lifetime friends there and learned so much about who I am as a Black man . . . [I] hope I can share something that will inspire the next generation of leaders.”

Shane Profitt met his mentor, Chris Janson, for the first time at a sushi restaurant, which is ironic because up to that point he had never eaten sushi and was pretty sure he didn’t like it. The “How It Outta Be’ singer was only at the restaurant because he was on a date with a girl who said she wanted sushi.  “The crunchy shrimp sushi roll is my go to if we go to a sushi restaurant. I still haven’t stepped into the raw aspect of the sushi side, but maybe one day I’ll expand my horizons and step into that raw sushi aspect. “

The List for Thursday, December 26th 2024

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.”

-----

The 42nd president is currency hospitalized after coming down with a fever that required medical attention. NBC News reports Bill Clinton is in a Washington, D.C. hospital on his own accord. An aide told the media outlet that Clinton,  who is 78, “Is in good spirits and grateful for the care he is receiving.  “The former president will be fine. “He developed a fever and wanted to be checked out. He is awake and alert.”
