Welcome to The List,

The 4th of July is this Monday…do you have everything you need for the grill?  Thomas Rhett has a few favorites.  “I mean, steaks are kinda my go to, but I think if I was having like a Fourth of July party or something like that, makin’ smash burgers on the Traeger are my favorite thing in the world to do”. Burgers, Brats, and dogs….and the smell of gun powder in the air!!!

Woody Allen might retire after his next movie. During his Instagram Live chat with Alec Baldwin yesterday, saying “A lot of the thrill is gone because it doesn’t have the whole cinema effect.  Adding, you would do a film and it would go to movie houses all over the country and people would come. “Now you do a movie and you get a couple of weeks in a movie house, and then it goes right to streaming or to pay per view . . it’s not the same it’s not as enjoyable to me.”  This is terrible news for the seven people who even know that Woody still makes movies.

I didn’t get into it to be Jeff Bezos and be the richest guy in the world.”

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.)
