Welcome to The List,
Remember the Neil Diamond song “Love on the Rocks”? I kinda hear that song in my head right now….Sources say Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez are living separate lives, and have put their $60 million Beverly Hills home on the market. Ben visited Jen there on Sunday, but didn’t stay the night.

NBC producers are allegedly warning Adam Levine that he could be dropped from “The Voice” if he doesn’t behave himself. He is currently set to return for the show’s 27th season after six years away. But, NBC staffers are concerned that he will return with the same arrogance that he allegedly exhibited during prior seasons. If he remains the abrasive Adam from the past, then they will get rid of him again.”

Duff McKagan from Guns N’ Roses continues to insist that “The Simpsons” named Duff Beer after him. But the show’s creators are on the record as saying he had nothing to do with it.

Welcome to The List,
Legendary Hollywood director Rob Reiner and his wife, were found dead at their Brentwood, Los Angeles home Sunday afternoon, and police are investigating it as an apparent double homicide. Investigators believe both suffered fatal stab wounds, and detectives from the LAPD’s Robbery Homicide Division are questioning a family member as part of the probe. Authorities have not yet publicly named a suspect. Reiner, 78, was known for classic films like When Harry Met Sally and The Princess Bride, and fans and public officials are mourning this loss as the investigation continues.

Ben Affleck is allegedly trapped in another holiday tug-of-war between Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner. According to insiders, this is basically last year on repeat. Ben wants to split time between both families in L.A., but J.Lo wants something bigger like flying everyone somewhere tropical for a full blended-family holiday reset. Garner, meanwhile, is standing firm and not changing her plans. Ben just wants turkey. Instead, he’s negotiating peace treaties.

Lainey Wilson is crossing over from country music to Monday Night Football tonight, joining Peyton and Eli on the Manningcast as the Steelers take on the Dolphins. And yes there’s a personal tie. Lainey’s fiancé is former Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges. So she’s got skin in the game, insider knowledge, and probably better fashion than both Mannings combined.

Jelly Roll told Complex magazine that at his heaviest weight, he truly believed he was only months away from death. He said traveling nearly 300 days a year at over 500 pounds made him feel like his body was shutting down. That realization changed everything. Now he’s set a bold new goal he wants to be on the cover of Men’s Health by March 2026. From survival mode to transformation arc… that’s one hell of a comeback story.
