Welcome to The List,
I can sum up last night’s “People’s Choice Awards” in three words: Lizzo . . . Selma . . . Shania. Lizzo received the People’s Champion Award, “To be an icon isn’t about how long you’ve had your platform. Being an icon is what you do with that platform.” Then she brought 17 female activists onstage, introducing each one by name, and explaining the work they do Selma Blair won Competition Contestant of the Year for doing “Dancing with the Stars” while battling MS. Shania Twain picked up the Music Icon Award and proved exactly why she deserved it with a fantastic medley of her hits.

Kane Brown tells Music Mayhem magazine that he plans to do another duet with his wife. Saying, “The support me and my wife have gotten for our song warms both our hearts.

Joe Rogan has issued a challenge to The Rock: Admit you’re on steroids. On a recent episode of his podcast, Rogan said, quote, “The Rock should come clean right now . . . “There’s not a chance in hell he’s clean, not a chance in hell as big as The Rock is at 50” ..Adding He is so massive and he’s so different than he was when he was 30.” And while he didn’t directly accuse them, he noted that Chris Hemsworth and Hugh Jackman got “super-jacked” for their superhero roles.

Showtime says “George & Tammy” was its most-watched premiere ever. Jessica Chastain stars as Tammy Wynette, and Michael Shannon plays George Jones. It aired Sunday on Showtime, Paramount+, and CMT, and pulled in 3.3 million combined viewers. You can probably catch it still on those streaming networks.

Welcome to The List,
Did you catch Beyonce’s performance during half-time on Wednesday’s game between the Baltimore Ravens and the Houston Texans? She performed a medley of songs off her album, “Cowboy Carter,” released earlier this year. Post Malone and Shaboozey, who are featured on “Cowboy Carter,” made special appearances during the Christmas Day performance.

Carly Pearce spent some time on tour with Tim McGraw earlier this year, and although she’s an avid runner and big into other fitness regimens like Orange Theory and spinning, one workout she has no plans to incorporate into her routine is Tim’s intense CrossFit training. “Yeah, I’m not gonna be a part of Tim McGraw’s workouts because quite frankly, I don’t think I could keep up. I did pull the tire up and I got it up, but he said that he will flip the tire the length of like a football field, y’all. And I’m just not going to do that. I will stick to running. If Tim McGraw wants to do a running challenge, let’s go.”

I’ve not ever thought about it, but I think it would be somethin’ that would be fun to do.”
