The List for Tuesday, June 28 2022

Welcome to The List,

Jason Aldean tells MusicRow.com that he wishes he could tell his younger self to appreciate his success. “I would tell him this thing is going to be bigger than you ever imagined possible.  In the early days, I don’t think I ever took the time to enjoy it and appreciate what I had accomplished. I don’t think that happened until later in my career.”

As reported yesterday…Disney is allegedly thinking about offering Johnny Depp a new contract to return as Captain Jack Sparrow in the ”Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise. A source tells the website,. I know corporate sent him a gift basket with a very heartfelt letter, but I`m unsure how it was received. But what I can tell you is that the studio has already penned up a draft for a film about Jack Sparrow — so they are very hopeful that Johnny will forgive them and return as his iconic character”

Parmalee star Matt Thomas tells Billboard magazine never give up on yo9ur dreams…it’s easy to get discouraged in the music business. “It’s frustrating when you put a song out and it doesn’t do as well as the song before it did.

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!

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.
