The List for Wednesday, October 26th 2022

Welcome to The List,

The scariest horror movie villains of all time were calculated using the average number of kills and jump scares.  The top three are Michael Myers, the Werewolf from “An American Werewolf in London”, and the creature from “The Grudge”….So uncle George from Pennsylvania didn’t make the list again this year.  But you’ll see him for Thanksgiving.

The actors on “Avatar: The Way of Water”, worked with specialists to learn how to hold their breath for underwater scenes.  Zoe Saldana got to the point where she could hold hers for almost five minutes.  Sigourney Weaver did six and a half minutes . . . and Kate Winslet, always the overachiever, went SEVEN minutes without taking a breath…meanwhile Tom Cruise is over here like ‘Hold  my beer”…

Scotty McCreery’s wife Gabi gave birth to their first child on Monday.  It’s a boy named Merrick Avery McCreery.  Scotty posted pics and wrote, “Next to his mother, he is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.  Gabi was a total rock star during Avery’s birth.  I could not be more proud of her.”

Chase Bryant married model Selena Weber in a hilltop ceremony in Texas on Saturday.  The venue overlooked 30 miles of Texas Hill County.  For Selena’s walk down the aisle, they had a string quartet perform “Can’t Help Falling in Love” by Elvis Presley play.

The List for Thursday, December 26th 2024

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.”

Some people may not know that one of Justin Moore’s favorite hobbies is cooking. He loves to try new recipes and often watches the Food Network for inspiration. We wondered if Justin has ever considered putting all those family recipes and his other favorites into a cookbook. “I would certainly be up for it. I’ve not ever thought about it, but I think it would be somethin’ that would be fun to do.”

The 42nd president is currency hospitalized after coming down with a fever that required medical attention. NBC News reports Bill Clinton is in a Washington, D.C. hospital on his own accord. An aide told the media outlet that Clinton,  who is 78, “Is in good spirits and grateful for the care he is receiving.  “The former president will be fine. “He developed a fever and wanted to be checked out. He is awake and alert.”
