The List for Thursday, June 9th 2022

 

Welcome to The List,

Thomas Rhett admittedly isn’t the BEST fisherman out there, in fact he had a pretty bad fly fishing mishap earlier this year … “Well, I’d had three or four Miller Lights, let’s just preface it with that. And I was trying to cast into the wind, and I’m not a super-experienced fly fisherman, and so, when I casted back and went forward, the wind took it and just whipped it right into the back of my leg.” He DID however thank Miller Lite for not making it as painful as it could have been.

You probably wouldn’t believe it to HEAR it but Walker Hayes says he was inspired by a very special person the gospel side of Randy Travis. “I notice that set him apart for me. But really just that identifiable voice. Yeah, I just love the guys voice and his demeanor was very calm to me and his music was. So, yeah love the guy.”

Entertainment Tonight says Sam Hunt and Hannah Lee Fowler are the proud parents of a new baby girl named Lucy Lu. Sam was performing at the Ryman when he said, “I recently had a baby girl named Lucy Lu. I think being out here, and in the music business and being out on the road, has sort of hardened my heart. My heart’s definitely a lot harder in a lot of ways since I left that small town. It’s amazing how that little girl melted that all away overnight a couple of weeks ago.”

Paramount Pictures CEO Brian Robbins was recently doing an interview with Variety magazine when he joked about making a third Top Gun movie. ”Let’s see where we are 35 years from now. I don’t want to speculate. This is an incredible run. The sky is the limit for this movie.”

Kid Rock tells Fox News that he is open to running for a political office. “One day, if I ever thought – if I was bored, sitting around – really thought I could serve my county and help them out, stir things up a little bit and do what’s right, I’d have to take a hard look at it”

Aaron Rodgers says he “definitely” plans to retire as a Green Bay Packer.  He also recently said the end could be near.  Quote, “The older you get, the interests change, and the grind, I think, wears on you a little more.”

The List for Thursday, March 13th 2025

Welcome to The List,

Imagine paying good money to see Chris Stapleton live… only to take a nap. That’s exactly what an Australian couple did—out cold in the middle of the concert! Their friends, being absolute menaces, surrounded them with empty beer cans. When the couple woke up, they had a full-blown hangover without the fun part.

-----

The List for Wednesday, March 12th 2025

Welcome to The List,

We saw THIS coming a mile away…Jennifer Garner has reportedly been given an ultimatum by her boyfriend.  If he sees another picture like the one of Jennifer and Ben Affleck cuddling at paintball, he's out the door.

-----

Blake Shelton just can't seem to stop with all the onstage PDA.  First Trace Adkins told him no more kisses on the cheek.  Now this . . .A video of Blake bringing an 84-year-old lady on stage for a birthday hug is making the rounds online.  It was pretty cute.  It happened two weekends ago at his show in Greensboro, North Carolina.  She was out in the crowd with a sign that said, "May I hug you for my 84th birthday?" (WARNING:  He says the word "damn" early on in the video, and the song lyrics include the phrase "wild-a**."  She shows up on stage around 1:20.)

-----

RadarOnline.com says the Oscars bosses are considering offering Chris Rock a huge sum to host the 2026 Academy Awards in hopes he can inject excitement back into the show. It seems he has unfinished business following the Will Smith affair and he'd be a huge audience winner.

Brad Paisley recently wowed the crowd at Rodeo Houston by covering Prince's "Purple Rain”.
