Kelce and the Blank Space singer 's wedding reception appearance comes just a couple of days after they were spotted in Florida, exiting a restaurant, following their date night. Swift also went on to spark speculations of her being pregnant. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's coordinated dance moves In a video shot by one of the attendees at the wedding, Swift and Kelce were seen rocking their shoulders from one end to another. Moreover, the Bad Karma crooner had a wide grin on her face at all times, while the Kansas City Chiefs star was very close to her at the table. For their outfits, Taylor opted for a powder blue, strapless dress with floral prints. She partly tied her curls and chose to go with smokey eyes and pale red lips to go with her complete look. For the accessories, the Grammy-winning star wore a thin chain and a few rings. Kelce, on the other hand, kept it simple with a black and white patterned shirt and black pants. He also parted his hair on the sides. One of the users shared a video of the musician on their X account, where Swift was talking to her fellow attendees. The caption read, 'not taylor swift being at my friend's friend's cousin's wedding." Meanwhile, the Reputation singer joined her boyfriend at the ceremony after buying back all of her masters from Big Machine Records in the previous week. The musician managed to make the big move six years after her music was sent out to the studios against her will. She made a deal with the owner of the studios for an alleged 300 million USD and announced the news on her social media soon after.

Is Xavier Legette's steamy kiss with GloRilla a PR stunt or a real love story in the making?
Xavier Legette is rumored to be dating Grammy-nominated rapper GloRilla (Getty Images) NFL wide receiver Xavier Legette is used to making headlines with his performance on the field, but lately, it's his off-field moves that have fans buzzing. The Carolina Panthers' rising star has stirred up major attention after appearing as rapper GloRilla's love interest in her latest music video 'Typa. ' From their sultry bedroom scenes to the chemistry they radiated on camera, fans are left wondering—are these two simply collaborators, or is there something more? What's really going on between Xavier Legette and GloRilla after that passionate on-screen kiss? Xavier Legette, known for his Southern charm, viral accent, and unapologetically bold style, isn't new to the social media spotlight. But this time, it's not about his unique personality or his love for raccoons—yes, really—it's about the steamy visuals shared with the Grammy-nominated rapper. Featured on the cover art of 'Typa,' Legette is seen getting extremely close with GloRilla, setting the tone for a music video that's intimate, eye-catching, and loaded with relationship rumors. GloRilla – Typa (Official Music Video) In the video, which dropped Friday morning, the 24-year-old NFL wideout and the 'Tomorrow' hitmaker take their roles beyond surface-level flirtation. At one point, GloRilla, clad in white lingerie, shares a passionate kiss with a shirtless Legette in what looks like a heated bedroom rendezvous. This scene—arguably the most talked-about part—has viewers speculating whether the duo's chemistry is strictly professional or crossing into something personal. Adding more intrigue to the storyline is R&B icon Keyshia Cole, who makes a cameo during a mid-video conversation with GloRilla. Given that 'Typa' samples Cole's classic track 'Love,' her presence adds nostalgic weight and another layer of authenticity to the video. But for many, it's Legette and GloRilla who have stolen the show. What has added fuel to the romantic speculation is the fact that neither GloRilla nor Legette has publicly addressed the nature of their relationship. Legette, who just wrapped a stellar rookie season with 49 receptions, nearly 500 receiving yards, and four touchdowns, has kept his personal life under wraps since his 2024 draft into the NFL. Similarly, GloRilla has rarely let fans in on her private affairs—until now. 'The lyrics of 'Typa' talk about her love for a country man with, uh, other features (just listen for yourself),' which makes Legette a fitting choice for the role. Whether this is a savvy PR move blending music and sports for mutual clout, or the beginning of something genuine, remains to be seen. Either way, it's one of the most talked-about crossovers of the year. So, is it all a calculated move or the spark of something real? As fans wait for confirmation—serious dating rumors or just another collaboration?

‘I was buying drugs, pretended they were vintage clothes,': Miley Cyrus on hiding expenses, ‘leaking blood' on stage and Disney ban
Miley Cyrus recently opened up about a chapter of her life that somehow stayed off the radar despite her living her life in the public eye. In a no-holds-barred chat on The Ringer's Every Single Album podcast, the pop star opened up about the chaos surrounding her 2015 Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz era, revealing how she cleverly masked her drug expenses. She also spoke about the traumatic health scare, performing for 100,000 fans while silently battling a heart condition at just 14 years old, and her time under Disney's tight grip, which once even banned her from singing Hannah Montana songs. 'I'm so glad I survived that time in my life,' she admitted. Also read: Priyanka Chopra's husband Nick Jonas' ex Miley Cyrus recalls their break up: 'He dumped me, I asked why are you leaving' In 2015, the Grammy winner revealed she was secretly spending a lot of money on drugs, and to keep it hidden from her accountant, she labelled her buys as 'vintage clothes.' Miley said, 'And so she would get these checks. That happens on touring all the time.' Her accountant thought she had a massive designer wardrobe. 'She'd ask, 'Where's that $15,000 John Lennon T-shirt?' and I'd be like, 'Oh, it's upstairs… want some?'' Miley laughed. 'We just really want to protect it. It's really delicate. The fabric — got to take care of it. So I bought a lot of vintage clothes that year,' she added. Now 32, Miley says she's been sober since 2019 (though she admitted to a slip during the pandemic) and that sobriety is the most important thing in her life today. 'That's like my God. I need it,' she said. 'I had to crash one more time to get to who I am now,' she said in an Apple Music interview. And that version of her, the one who wrote Flowers, is someone she's proud of. 'Writing Flowers was like unlocking something. It healed me in a way nothing else had.' Also read: Sydney Sweeney calls herself 'really vicious', says it's 'kind of psychotic' how she jumps in character: 'I feel bad for my co-stars' Miley was 14 and in the middle of a Hannah Montana concert, her first Disney gig, when her heart started racing uncontrollably. Everyone thought it was just low blood sugar, but she was diagnosed with a condition called tachycardia. 'It wasn't just nerves,' she recalled. 'People thought I had low blood sugar and handed me a cracker. But I knew something was wrong.' For the rest of the tour, she was forced to wear heart monitors on stage. She doesn't really count it as trauma, saying she has dealt with far worse times in her life, but admitted that the incident left a mark. 'People said I was nervous. I wasn't. I was leaking blood.' Disney series Hannah Montana was Miley's big breakthrough, she played a pop star hiding her real identity to live a normal life. But after she left the show in 2011, Disney banned her from performing any of those songs. Miley admitted, 'It's not like I even wanted to,' perform them. 'Imagine me singing 'The Best of Both Worlds' between 'Wrecking Ball' and 'We Can't Stop.' It just didn't make sense.' Still, she admitted the ban stung a bit; those songs had her face and her voice. But in 2024, Disney finally recognised her as a 'legend' and lifted the ban. Miley made peace with the past, joking, 'If I was made in a Disney lab, something definitely glitched between 2013 and 2016. Sorry, Mickey.'
