The List for Tuesday, April 22nd 2025
Welcome to The List,
Eric Church ain’t just strumming guitars—he’s breaking ground! His nonprofit just kicked off their first housing project ever in North Carolina, and he's calling it a “lifeline.” Basically: Eric’s out here building more than just houses—he’s laying down heart and soul, hammer in hand. Move over HGTV, Church is coming in hot!
-----
Ella Langley just showed up and chose violence—with eight ACM noms to her name! Right behind her? Cody Johnson, Morgan Wallen, and Lainey Wilson with seven each. Oh, and Reba’s hosting, so you know we’re gettin’ sass, sparkle, and possibly a rhinestone mic drop. May 8 on Prime Video—yeehaw, y’all!
-----
Chris Rock is not laughing—again. Word is, he’s ticked at Will Smith for milking that Oscars slap in his new music. Chris says Will’s still “arrogant and self-serving.” Honestly? Hard agree. Will’s trying to rebrand like we forgot—but we remember, sir. We remember.
----
Ryan Coogler is on fire right now—his horror-musical Sinners just crushed the box office, and next up? A reboot of The X-Files! He says it’s “immediately next” on his to-do list and yes—he’s already talked to the iconic Gillian Anderson. Quote: “She’s incredible. Fingers crossed.” He promises it’ll be “really friggin’ scary” and made “for the real X-Files fans—and maybe some new ones.
