The List, for Tuesday, May 16th 2023

Welcome to The List,

Could there be another Back To The Future movie?  84 year old Christopher Lloyd seems to think so.  He also thinks Michael J. Fox could do it, too.  Okay, in no way whatsoever do I want to sound rude or insulting.  But have you seen Michael J. Fox lately?  His Parkinson’s has REALLY taken hold and I would think Christopher Lloyd would be acutely aware of that.  If the focus shifted so it was one of Marty’s kids doing the time traveling…that might work.

Dolly Parton has now turned down two Presidential Medal of Freedom offers.  She said no to President Trump a few years ago, and according to “The Today Show”, she also turned down President Biden.

—–

Kenny Chesney got Kelsea Ballerini to take a backstage ice bath with his band before their show in Lincoln, Nebraska this weekend.  But there was one condition.  She said only if he did a SHOT with her on stage for his song, “You and Tequila”.  And so, the ice bath and the shot happened.

Reba McEntire is serving as a mentor on the current season of “The Voice” . . . and they must like her, because she’s getting a promotion.  Reba will take Blake Shelton’s chair on the upcoming 24th season this fall. The three other coaches next season will be Gwen Stefani, John Legend, and Niall Horan. The finale of ‘The Voice’ airs on Monday, May 22nd and Tuesday, May 23rd on NBC.

Cody Johnson tells CMT that he had to turn down a role in the show ‘Yellowstone’.  He knows Taylor Sheridan, the creator of the show, would love to do it at some point but with only a couple months’ notice we weren’t able to do it with all the shows already on his schedule.

Tom Cruise is allegedly upset that Brad Pitt is going to star in an F1 racing movie.  A lot of people don’t realize this, but Brad and Tom competed for so many roles; it’s ridiculous. Their rivalry is one of the industry’s best-kept secrets. Tom’s nose might be a bit out of joint over this. Brad is kind of stepping on his turf a little, No doubt that has ruffled a few feathers too. ‘You DON’T SAY…Tom Cruise is competitive?

The List for Monday, November 25th 2024

Welcome to The List,

Game show host Chuck Woolery died on Saturday at his home in Texas. . . . TMZ reports that he went to lie down because he wasn't feeling well.

Chuck was the original host of "Wheel of Fortune" back in the late '70s . . . he went on to host the "Scrabble" game show in the '80s . . . and of course "Love Connection" from 1983 to 1994.

He also did some later shows, like "Lingo" on the Game Show Network, and "Greed" on Fox.

There's no word on a cause of death, Chuck Woolery was 83…

-----

"Billboard" put out their list of the Top 100 Country Singers of All Time . . . and some folks are less than pleased.  Specifically, because Taylor Swift was ranked above Brooks & Dunn, Hank Williams Jr., and Toby Keith.  Also, Jason Aldean didn't even make the list at all..what’s THAT all about…..

-----

Kansas City Chiefs superstar Patrick Mahomes is making around $50 million a year.  But now, his wallet will be 0.03% LIGHTER . . . thanks to FINGER GUNS.

The NFL has fined Patrick $14,069 for the "violent gesture" he made last week, while celebrating a touchdown.  He'd just scored on Buffalo, and Patrick used both hands to mimic firing dual pistols.

Let's be honest . . . he wouldn't have been fined for mimicking a bow and arrow . . . throwing knives . . . or dramatically acting out the extremely violent "finishing moves" from "Mortal Kombat".  (Although that would be amusing.)

-----

Chris Stapleton and Brooks & Dunn are now tied with the most CMA Awards in history.  They have 19 wins each.
