Welcome to The List,
Big Bang Theory star Kate Micucci is recovering from lung cancer surgery, even though she’s only 43, and has never smoked a cigarette. She says they caught it early and got it out. She added, quote, “I’ll probably be moving slow for a few weeks, but then I’ll be back at it.” Kate played Lucy on “The Big Bang Theory”, and Shelley on “Raising Hope”.

Thomas Rhett is a pretty busy guy with four kids at home and a thriving music career, but it turns out he actually finds time to read, and he dives into some pretty heavy stuff. “I’m usually reading some sort of history about the Bible type book. Like, I’m reading a book right now called Jesus Through Middle Eastern Eyes, and it’s super in-depth, and will probably take me a year to finish. I wanna say the last fiction book I read, I think was Harry Potter, and that would’ve been, I don’t know, 20 years ago?”

George Clooney makes sure that he handles the cooking for his family, NOT his lawyer wife Amal. He says, quote, “She’s one of the great advocates of the world, she takes on ISIS and all these things . . . but I better be doing the cooking, or we will all die.” George will be cooking a “little Christmas turkey” for the holidays this year. He also made one for Thanksgiving.

Lainey Wilson and Hardy just wrapped up their tour together, and Lainey celebrated by surprising Hardy with a custom guitar. It has a mockingbird and a crow etched onto the top, as well as Hardy’s name. Hardy had a gift for Lainey too. She opened an envelope and saw that he was putting her up at Blackberry Farm “for a few days.” It’s a luxury hotel and resort in Walland, Tennessee. I’ve always said the way to a woman’s heart sometimes is a good spa day…

Drew Barrymore loves Oprah. I mean I REALLY loves Oprah. And she proved it yesterday when she had Oprah on her show. During their chat, Drew basically cuddled up to Oprah on the couch and locked fingers with her. Then with her other hand, she started STROKING OPRAH’S ARM. Oprah didn’t seem to think it was weird. But it made some viewers uneasy.

Welcome to The List,
John Wick: The Franchise That Won’t Die! John Wick may have bitten the bullet in Chapter 4, but like a bad ex, he’s back for more! Not only is Keanu returning for "John Wick 5," but we’re also getting an animated prequel and a spin-off starring Donnie Yen’s blind assassin, Caine. At this point, the only thing that can actually kill John Wick… is nothing.

Blake Shelton’s “No-Frills” Rider Some artists demand rose petals and private chefs—Blake Shelton just wants Sprite Zero, vodka, and ice. No fancy snacks, no ridiculous requests. Just a man, his drink, and a guaranteed good time. Honestly, respect.

Diddy’s Latest Lawsuit: What Even Is This?! A new accuser claims Diddy’s Miami “freak-off” party was more like a bad episode of Black Mirror. With big names like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and LeBron James allegedly present, we’re all wondering… was this a lawsuit or an Illuminati fanflic? Diddy’s legal team denies everything, of course.
