Will Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Get Married?

Travis Kelce Taylor Swift 2023

If you have a parasocial relationship with world famous pop stars and Hall of Fame-bound football players, it was a big weekend for you.

Taylor Swift altered the lyrics to a song from Midnights to make it about her rumored boyfriend, Travis Kelce, who traveled to Argentina to attend an Eras Tour concert (it was a bye week for the Kansas City Chiefs). While performing “Karma,” she sang, “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me” instead of the usual “Karma is the guy on the screen, coming straight home to me.” He seemed to enjoy the change.

Now that Swift and Kelce are hanging out with each other’s parents, some, including One Tree Hill star Hilarie Burton, are certain that wedding bells (or at least the “Haunted” bell) could be in the future.

“They are gonna have the most flannel lined, pie and red ribbon kinda Christmas… and then these babies are gonna be engaged by May,” she wrote on X in response to a video of Kelce with Swift’s dad. When one of her followers noted that Swift has never changed the lyrics to one of her songs for a guy before, the actress (who is married to Jeffrey Dean Morgan) replied, “Because every other guy made her feel like she had to downplay her own work. This big ol beefy tree of a man is holding up signs and singing along! Catching her as she runs offstage?!?! Just saying….strong @JDMorgan energy.

Burton added, “Get a man who lights up when you win.” Is that a reference to “I Did Something Bad”? Because it seems like Swift is experiencing the most fun she’s ever had.

Britney Spears’ Manager Criticized ‘SNL’ For Doing A ‘Pathetic’ Impression Of The Pop Star

snl britney
nbc

The audio book for Britney Spears‘ memoir, The Woman In Me, was read by Michelle Williams. Not the Michelle Williams from Destiny’s Child, but five-time Oscar nominee Michelle Williams, who is every bit as good in Manchester by the Sea as she is pretending to be Britney Spears while recalling the time Justin Timberlake tried to act “Black” around Ginuwine.

But Williams wasn’t the only choice for the audio book.

That’s the basis for the SNL sketch “The Woman in Me: Auditions,” at least. Cast member Chloe Fineman does a solid imitation of the pop star, who reveals the other choices to read her words. The list includes Martin Scorsese (as portrayed by guest host Timothée Chalamet), John Mulaney (Sarah Sherman), Jada Pinkett Smith (Ego Nwodim), and Julia Fox (Fineman). It’s a time-honored SNL impression-a-thon, but not everyone was amused.

“Wow. The writers of SNL are getting worse and worse,” Spears’ manager Cade Hudson wrote on Instagram on Sunday, according to the Daily Beast. He claimed that “no wonder you all reached out to me to get Britney on the show… SNL is on life support. You all are pathetic and this Chloe isn’t funny. Did you find her on Craigslist or something?”

I thought it was pretty good? Although not as great as Fineman’s Natasha Lyonne. You can judge for yourself below.

Tyrese Maxey Torched The Pacers In His First Career 50-Point Game

The Philadelphia 76ers came into Sunday evening’s game against the Indiana Pacers having won seven straight games, as Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey have been nothing short of spectacular in the first three weeks of the season, clearly enjoying playing for Nick Nurse in a James Harden-less lineup.

That win streak was extended to eight games on Sunday behind another sensational effort from their stars, as Embiid scored 37 to go along with 13 rebounds and seven assists, while Maxey put up the first 50-point game of his young career. The Pacers had no answers on the defensive end, which has been a bit of an issue for them all season, as they couldn’t match Embiid’s physicality inside or Maxey’s pace on the perimeter. The Pacers did their best to keep up in an offensive shootout, but in the fourth quarter the Sixers stars proved too much for Indiana to keep pace, as Philly pulled away to a 137-126 win.

Maxey had it all working on Sunday night, as he had the Pacers defense completely off balance because of his ability to knock down outside shots if they backed off and drive into the paint to finish if they pressed up too high. In the fourth quarter he had 14 of his 50, as he was relentless in applying pressure to the Pacers defense and showed the incredible confidence he’s playing with right now with the way he let the three-ball fly off of stepbacks and self-creation.

Maxey put the finishing touches on a 50-ball with another stepback three, this time on the left wing, to ice the game and a career performance.

While the offensive effort will get the headlines, Maxey also authored the defensive play of the game with an incredible chasedown block of Buddy Hield on a dunk attempt that sent the Philly crowd into a frenzy.

Maxey finished the night with 50 points, seven rebounds, and five assists on 20-of-32 shooting (7-of-11 from three) and took just three free throws. It was truly a spectacular shot-making performance, and the way he has stepped into a starring role alongside Embiid has been incredible to watch this season. It’s impossible not to compare the way he’s playing and the way the Sixers keep ripping off wins to what James Harden is doing in L.A., where the Clippers have yet to win since trading for him and his on/off numbers are jarring. The Sixers have certainly gotten some help from Nicolas Batum and Robert Covington since arriving in the trade, but the biggest thing they did was clear the way for Maxey to be the star in the backcourt and so far he’s rewarding them with All-Star caliber play.

Britney Spears Praised Taylor Swift As ‘The Most Iconic Pop Woman’ As She Shared Cute Throwback Pics

Britney Spears‘ new Instagram post has fans talking, mainly for how sweet it is. She shared a side-by-side of her with Taylor Swift, including one photo that was taken in 2003, and another years later in 2008 at the MTV Video Music Awards. Spears went on to share her memories of the fellow pop star.

“During my Oops Tour, I got a knock at my door,” Spears captioned. “My good friend at the time was the assistant to my manager who was trying to become a manager himself. There was a knock, and then he said, ‘I have a girl named Taylor who wants to come in and sing for you.’ I was like of course !!! He walks in, and she sings a beautiful song with her guitar.”

Spears continues to praise Swift. “We took a picture, and she then became the most iconic pop woman of our generation,” she added. “Kinda cool she plays stadiums, and I prefer her videos over movies any day. She’s stunning !!! Girl crush.”

While Spears hasn’t been spotted at any of Swift’s Eras Tour shows yet, the thought of her now getting a front-and-center spot would be a very fun time.

Kyler Murray Led A Game-Winning Drive In His First Start Back From A Torn ACL

The Arizona Cardinals entered Sunday afternoon’s game against the Falcons at 1-8 on the season, as they are in the first year of a rebuild (or, at minimum, a reset) after major roster and organizational changes in the offseason.

However, while they had the league’s worst record, they have been competitive in a number of games this season and were getting their star quarterback back under center for the first time all year. After starting Josh Dobbs for eight games, the Cardinals traded him to Minnesota where he has since, stunningly, won back-to-back games in place of Kirk Cousins. After a rough outing from rookie Clayton Tune a week ago against the Browns, Kyler Murray made his return to the field for the first time since tearing his ACL a year ago, and injected some life into the Arizona offense.

It was an up-and-down day for Murray, as one might expect in his first NFL game in almost a year, but the final drive of the game was a reminder of his talents and why he was once the first overall pick in the Draft. On a 3rd-and-10, trailing 23-22 with just under two minutes to play, Murray somehow scrambled out of trouble, circling 20 yards backwards before running for a first down as Falcons defenders chased him in vain.

A couple plays later, Murray let it fly downfield and got help from Trey McBride, who tracked an underthrown ball as a Falcons DB overran it, to put Arizona firmly in field goal range.

Arizona would then run the ball and position things to set up a game-winning field goal, one of three walkoff kicks in the late slate, as Murray and the Cardinals picked up a win to boost morale a bit in the desert.

Murray finished the game 19-of-32 passing for 249 yards and one interception, tacking on 33 rushing yards and a touchdown on five carries. It wasn’t his absolute best, but the way he moved was certainly encouraging coming off an ACL and one would think he gained a lot of confidence in his health moving forward the rest of the season.

Tired of ‘hacks?’ Here are 20 of the best life tips sourced from 21.9 million real people.

Arjun Mahadevan gave the world a gift when he crowdsourced the best “life pro tips” from nearly 22 million people. He shared the top 20 in a Twitter thread that’s got over 619,000 views. Mahadevan sourced the tips from the Life Pro Tips subforum on Reddit, which has been running since 2010.

Mahadevan is the CEO of doolaHQ which he calls the “business-in-a-box” for LLCs.

Mahadevan labeled his advice “20 life tips you wish you knew when you were 20,” but they are helpful for everyone regardless of age. They’re useful for anyone who is in a relationship, has a job or wants to stay sane in an aggravating world.


Many ideas involve reframing how we judge others to see them with more compassion. Mahadevan also has some advice for professionals to prevent them from making embarrassing mistakes or wasting other people’s time.

Sometimes the simplest change in behavior or perspective can drastically affect our lives. Here are Arjun Mahadevan’s 20 life tips you wish you knew when you were 20:

1. “If you’re stuck on an annoying call, put your phone on airplane mode instead of just hanging up. The other person will see ‘call failed’ instead of ‘call ended.'”

2. “When you sign up for anything online, put the website’s name as your middle name. That way when you receive spam/advert emails, you will know who sold your info.”

3. “Always tell a child who is wearing a helmet how cool you think their helmet is. It will encourage them to always wear it in the future.”

4. “When you don’t have all the facts, try to give people the most generous reason you can for their behavior. Annoyingly slow driver? Maybe it’s a mom with a birthday cake in the back. This mindset will gradually make you less reactive and more compassionate.”

5. “Do not try to be the man your father would want you to be. Be the man you would like your son to be. It more clearly defines your own convictions, desires, goals and motivates you to be your best.”

6. “When a friend is upset, ask them one simple question before saying anything else: ‘Do you want to talk about it or do you want to be distracted from it?'”

7. “After a bad breakup, do 10 things that your ex would never do with you. You’ll feel better and realize how much of yourself was being held back.”

8. “Before you give your child a unique name, try it out first. Use it on food orders, reservations, appointments where applicable, etc. It’ll give you a glimpse of what they’ll deal with when they’re older and could prevent future issues.”

9. “If you need to cancel a hotel reservation but are unable to because of a 24-hour policy, call the company and move your reservation to a later date. Call back within a few days and cancel for no charge.”

10. “If you tell someone you need to talk to them, for the love of God give some indication of what you need to talk about, or at least that it’s not bad news.”

11. “Never send a work email when you’re emotionally compromised. Type it up, save it as a draft, and walk away. Ideally, sleep on it. You’ll make a smarter choice when you’re not heated.”

12. “Don’t just let kids win at games. You can slow it down, you can teach them strategy, but keep it real. Someday, they will beat you fair and square, and it will be a moment they always remember with pride.”

13. “When cooking things on aluminum foil, first scrunch the foil up, then lay it loosely flat again out on your baking tray. The juices will stay put—and the food will not stick to the foil half as much, if at all.”

14. “If you think of a good idea, write it down. Your brain will try to trick you into thinking you will remember it later, but it’s a liar! Therefore: Write it down!”

15. “It takes 4 minutes a day and almost no cost to maintain dental hygiene. It takes a lifetime and a lot of money to correct it. 2-minute brush and mouthwash in the AM, 2-minute brush and floss in the PM.”

16. “Don’t wait until you have ‘time’ to start a fitness program. Because then when you get busy again, you’ll stop. The best time to start is actually when you’re busy. Learning how to fit it in when time’s are tough means you’ll stick with it over the long haul.”

17. “When using text messages or IMs for business, say everything you need to say in the first message. Don’t just say ‘hi’ or ‘hey’ or ‘are you there’ or ‘are you busy.'”

18. “Instead of feeling that you’ve blown the day and thinking, ‘I’ll get back on track tomorrow, think of each day as a set of four quarters:

• Morning• Midday• Afternoon• Evening

If you blow one quarter, you get back on track for the next quarter.”

19. “Many problems in marriage are really just problems with being a bad roommate. Learn how to be a good roommate, and it will solve many of the main issues that plague marriages. This includes communicating about something bothering you before you get too angry.”

20. “Ask yourself ‘what does it matter to me’ the next time you find yourself judging someone for their clothing or hobbies. The more you train yourself to not care about the personal preferences of other people, the more relaxed and nicer you become as a person.”
