The List for Wednesday, December 13th 2023

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.

Cody Johnson’s Christmas special airs tonight on CMT, and he tells a great story about when he and his wife were totally broke“CMT Presents:  A Cody Johnson Christmas” airs at 9:00 PM, 8:00 Central on CMT.

The List for Thursday, January 9th 2025

Welcome to The List,

As the wildfires pretty much decimate Hollywood…Celebrities who've lost their homes to the wildfires include Adam Brody and Leighton Meester, Anna Faris, Paris Hilton, James Woods, and others.  Meanwhile, Ben Affleck fled to Jennifer Garner's house.

-----

Brad Paisley says his former California home was lost in the Pacific Palisades wildfire.  Saying “It was the first house Kim and I bought together. Memories were made with some of our dearest friends. I would post a link to donate or raise awareness or something, but it all feels so much bigger than that. I don't know where to begin.

-----

Jennifer Lopez is allegedly relying on Kim Kardashian of all people following her split from Ben Affleck. A source tells the publication, "Kim has been a great support system for Jennifer during this tough time. She’s really stepped up to the plate and been not only a shoulder to cry on, but also a bona fide cheerleader and a stylist, too.  It must be so hard being Jennifer Lopez….

-----

Something you probably never wanted to know about Jordan Davis.  He loves to hunt and fish, but that doesn't make him a survivalist.  He said if he was ever on "Naked and Afraid", he'd be the "first one out."
