Welcome to The List,
Yesterday we reported the retirement announcement for Pat Sajak from “Wheel of Fortune”. Vanna White Tweeted a message to Pat Sajak on his retirement. She said, quote, “When we started Wheel of Fortune who could have imagined we’d still be at it 41 seasons later? Even though Pat still has a year to go, the horse race is already on to replace him. But guess who’s already at the top of the list? Obviously, it’s Ryan Seacrest.

Hailey Whitters tells SongwriterUniverse.com that she almost gave up on music after 10 years and it was a trip to the Grand Ole Opry sitting in the audience and watching Brandy Clark performing that changed her mind. As she says “ I knew if I quit now, I would be very disappointed in myself later and now here I am with a hit record. Just goes to show you should never give up on your dream.”

Jake Owen says the relationship between him as a father and his daughter is that of a role model “A dad to a girl is a role model, and it’s someone that she can count on and stand behind, and it’s my dying goal to make sure that my daughter knows that, that I’m here for her and for no matter what.”
