Taylor Swift 'Fears Imminent Harm' From Stalker Claiming She's The Mother of His Child
Taylor Swift 'Fears Imminent Harm' From Stalker Claiming She's The Mother of His Child originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
In recent years, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been vocal about wishing to protect not only the privacy of his relationship with pop icon girlfriend Taylor Swift - but also Swift herself.
But this time around? The music sensation needs help from the courts.
Swift has been granted a restraining order against a Colorado man after he allegedly visited her Los Angeles home multiple times while insisted that she's the mother of his child.
Swift filed the restraining order last Friday, alleging that a man named Brian Jason Wagner has 'made various statements about living at my property,' 'being in a relationship with me … believing I am the mother of his son … needing to see me in person,' according to a legal filing obtained by media outlets, which adds, "All of which are untrue and disconnected from reality.'
Per the filing, Swift, says that Wagner first stopped by her Los Angeles home in 2024 and returned several times that July. She claimed that Wagner again stopped by her home in May 2025.
Swift's security team reportedly later learned that Wagner was once in prison and had allegedly written lengthy jail cell letters to the Grammy winner 'about his infatuation with (her), a romantic relationship with (her ... which does not exist), and other completely fabricated stories about his involvement in (her) personal life.'
The filing states that Wagner allegedly found a way to include Swift's address on his driver's license.
Per the filing, Swift, 35, said, 'I have no relationship with Mr. Wagner and I have never met nor communicated with him,' she insisted, claiming she has a 'fear of imminent harm.'
The temporary restraining order was granted on Monday and will expire on June 30.
Swift - and Kelce, also 35 - are not stranger to such threats, with Kelce having beefed up security and made other changes to his home in Kansas City. A man was arrested in New York for a third time for stalking her in January 2024. And in July 2024, a man was arrested at her Eras Tour stop in Germany for allegedly threatening the couple.

Cardi B Blasts Donald Trump's ‘Dictatorship Vibe' Over ICE Raids & National Guard Deployment
With an uptick in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids and contentious protests against ICE taking place in Los Angeles, Cardi B explained why she didn't speak out about the events in recent days. The Grammy-winning rapper spoke up during an X Spaces captured by Complex early Tuesday (June 10) that she doesn't feel her voice will be heard by the government and believes her condemning Trump could ultimately backfire and make the immigration situation worse. More from Billboard Tyler, the Creator, Finneas, Kehlani & More React to Los Angeles Protests Against ICE 'Democracy Forward' Compilation Features Tracks From Michael Stipe, Wilco, Brandi Carlile, John Prine and Tyler Childers Gracie Abrams Shares Snippet of New Music & Gets Support From an Excited Olivia Rodrigo 'Personally, the reason why I haven't really said anything is because I could say something every single day about it and guess what? Nothing is going to happen,' she said. 'Because Trump do not give one f—k about me or what I gotta say. I personally believe that he doesn't like me. So if somebody don't like you, and they say something or they do something, they'll be like, 'Oh word? Now I'm gonna show you.'' 'He always gives dictatorship vibe,' she continued. Cardi also said she 'tried to warn people that this was going to happen' regarding the aggressive deportation policies under the Trump administration. 'I don't know nobody anymore in the White House. I don't know a representative. I don't know nobody in there. And if I talk about it every single day, he is not going to care,' the Bronx native added. 'Actually, I feel like if I talk about it every single day, he's going to deport more people on purpose to show you… Like, 'B—h, I run this country.'' Trump deployed the National Guard in Los Angele as protestors took to the streets to speak out against the recent influx of ICE raids to the city. 42 arrests were made by the Los Angeles Police Department, California Highway Patrol and Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department over the weekend, according to NBC. Many artists spoke out against ICE and stood in solidarity with the protestors like Tyler, The Creator, Finneas, The Game, Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong, Kehlani and more. California governor Gavin Newsom announced his plans to sue the Trump administration on Monday (June 9) for deploying the National Guard without his request or consent — the first time an American president has done so since 1965. Newsom called Trump's actions 'illegal, immoral and unconstitutional.'

Macklemore's Seattle Home Reportedly Robbed with His 3 Children Inside as Nanny Escapes to Call for Help: Cops
Macklemore's Seattle home was reportedly robbed on June 7 while his children were at home with their nanny The nanny escaped the home to call police, according to a police report The suspects stole "thousands of dollars of items" from the home, police saidMacklemore's Seattle residence was reportedly the scene of a recent home invasion, during which two suspects looking to rob the Grammy winner allegedly bear-sprayed his nanny while his three young children were asleep in their rooms. A police report shared with PEOPLE by the Seattle Police Department said a woman — later identified as the home owner's nanny — called 911 just before 1 a.m. on Saturday, June 7 to report that two men had broken into a home in the city's Capitol Hill neighborhood and used bear spray on her. 'She escaped, but three children were still inside the house,' the report said. '[The caller] also added that the house belonged to a high-profile individual…. and that she believed the crime may have been politically motivated for some reason.' The Seattle Times reported that the address in the police report matched that of the voting record of Ben Haggerty — Macklemore's real name. The report viewed by PEOPLE also left the name 'Davis' unredacted in one mention, and Macklemore's wife is Tricia Davis. The 'Thrift Shop' singer, 41, and his wife are parents to daughters Sloane, 10, and Colette, 7, and son Hugo, 3½. He has been vocal in his support for Palestine both on his social media and on stage at his concerts, writing in a recent Instagram post that he believes 'standing up against [a genocide] shouldn't have to be brave.' A spokesperson for Macklemore did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment. According to the police report, the responding officer found the nanny in 'obvious fear' at a nearby residence. She told police that she was at home after putting the children to sleep in their bedrooms on the second floor when she saw two men entering a patio door near an office, which the nanny said is typically unlocked. She alleged that the men entered the home and sprayed her with bear mace, then yelled, 'Where are the jewels, bitch?' She said she led them upstairs to the master bedroom, where the suspects allegedly 'went through drawers, cabinets and raided the closet full of clothing, jewelry and shoes.' In a separate release about the incident, police said the suspects 'ransacked the residence, stealing thousands of dollars of items.' The nanny said that at one point, she was thrown to the ground and had a boot put to her ankle and the back of her neck. '[The nanny] began to scream, so they got her up and pinned her against a wall, the shorter one holding her mouth shut,' the report said. 'At this point, [the nanny] tried to kick the shorter one in the groin, but was unable to, so she bit onto his hand hard, causing him to let go. [She] then fled through the bathroom and out of the house. [She] knocked on numerous residences before someone opened the door and allowed her inside to call the police.' When police arrived, they searched the house, which showed 'obvious signs of disarray,' and 'safely extracted' the three children. The report said that a number of family members responded to the scene, and took custody of the children for the evening. Read the original article on People
