The List for Tuesday, May 9th 2023

Welcome to The List,

Britney Spears has written a book…it’s actually a autobiography and it’s got A LOT of A-listers nervous.  SO, nervous that they are sending legal letters to her over what they’re afraid she’s going to say.  So far the book has been put on hold because of that. I would imagine some of those “nervous A-listers” also have the last name “Spears”.  Another might have the initials “J.T.”

When Brantley Gilbert and Jelly Roll first got together to record their song, “Son of the Dirty South,” they realized pretty quickly that they were kindred spirits who work really well together. Then they went on tour together, and they decided to make more music together, which Brantley says they hope to share with fans sooner than later. “We’re working on a EP with Jelly Roll. We went and got in the studio and basically live there for a week, and a lot of good stuff came out of that. I don’t know that we’ll release all of ‘em right now, but we are working on like kind of a little EP to put out. There is no specific release date for Brantley and Jelly Roll’s new project yet.  But, he’ll be releasing the Deluxe Edition of his ‘So Help Me God’ album on April 21st.

Decider magazine says Kevin Costner will allegedly not return to ”Yellowstone” until he approves of the way his character, John Dutton, is killed off.  The NY Post newspaper says Paramount+ spends $500 million per year to produce ”Yellowstone” and it’s prequels “1883” and “1923”. Paramount suffered a first quarter loss of $1.1 billion.

The new James Bond Search continues… casting director Debbie McWilliams says she and the producers are no longer looking at young actors for the role of 007.  Even though they looked at a lot of great actors none had the life experience or the gravitas to pull off such a massive responsibility…So we kind of scrubbed that idea and went back to the drawing board and started again.”

Cole Swindell got engaged to his girlfriend, Courtney Little, on Sunday.  He surprised her on a farm near Nashville, which was where they had their first date.  He even hired a photographer to hide in the field and take pics.

He’s 39 and she’s 24.

People magazine says Brad Pitt is launching a new gin called The Gardener. He is going to serve it at the Cannes Film Festival.  Guaranteed if you have enough of it you’ll wake up in SOMEONE’S garden…

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.
