The List for Wednesday, August 10th 2022

Welcome to the List,

Serena Williams announced her retirement yesterday.  She plans to “evolve” past tennis after the U.S. Open at the end of the month.  Although she says, quote, “I know that a lot of people are excited about and look forward to retiring, and I really wish I felt that way.”

Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have had all three of their daughters move out of the house.  But it never gets easy.  Tim cries every single time they drop one of them off somewhere. AAAW!

Garth Brooks is narrating a new five-part series called “America’s National Parks” that hits Nat Geo and Disney+ at the end of the month.  Five parks will each get their own episode:  Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Big Bend, Badlands, and Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park.

It’s ‘Back to School’ season . . . and Cody Johnson has joined a movement to help teachers get the school supplies they need.  He’s sharing a link where you can help cover items from a teacher’s Amazon wish list.  You can also nominate a teacher to win “a $300 self-care surprise.” The link is …. getyourteachon.com/codyjohnson

The “Predator” prequel, “Prey”, had the most-watched premiere in Hulu history. People are probably watching to see if it’s as bad as the rest of them…

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”.
