Caitlin Clark credits Taylor Swift for upgrading her 'drip'
It's no secret that Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark and singer Taylor Swift are friends, and what do friends do? Help you out with clothes!
I guess Swift didn't want Clark's current wardrobe to go out of style (see what I did there?) because Clark recently revealed that the pop star hooked her up with Eras Tour merchandise that has upgraded her fashion sense. Some might call that an assist off the court. (Okay. I'll show myself out.)
"It was helpful in [that] I have good drip now," Clark told Grace Wehniainen of Bustle.
"I have every sweatshirt and Taylor Swift Eras T-shirt in about every color and size. So, if anybody needs any, I will let you borrow [one]. But, yeah, I have an option for every outfit. She was kind enough to help me."
This is very kind of Taylor Swift, and we fully expect to see Caitlin Clark rocking her new clothes during a WNBA tunnel walk this season.

Lynx star Napheesa Collier named West's best player for May
Minnesota Lynx star Napheesa Collier continues to make her MVP case as the team remains unbeaten. The WNBA announced Wednesday that Collier is the Western Conference Player of the Month for May. The Lynx left the first month of the season without a loss, thanks in large part to Collier's contributions. She averaged 26.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, 3 assists, 2.4 steals and 1.4 blocks in five games. On the season, Collier leads the WNBA in points per game (25.1) and win shares (2.0). The Lynx are a perfect 8-0, their best start since they won the WNBA Finals in 2017. This is the second award of the season for Collier, who won Western Conference Player of the Week after the first four games. Last season, Collier made the All-WNBA First Team and was named Defensive Player of the Year amid the Lynx's surprising but ultimately unavailing run to the WNBA Finals. She also won a gold medal with Team USA at the Summer Olympics. Since then, she's had a productive offseason. She was named the MVP of Unrivaled, the 3-on-3 basketball league she co-founded, and TIME magazine listed her among its 100 Most Influential People.

Taylor Swift announces she bought back her masters with heartfelt letter to fans: ‘Bursting into tears'
Taylor Swift has bought back her masters! A week after Page Six exclusively revealed that buying back her masters was a possibility, the singer announced the news Friday with a lengthy message on her official website. 'I'm trying to gather my thoughts into something coherent, but right now my mind is just a slideshow,' she began her note, which was formatted like a handwritten letter. 'A flashback sequence of all the time I daydreamed about, wished for, and pined away for a chance to get to tell this news. All the times I was thiiiiiiiiiiis close, reaching out for it, only for it to fall through. 'I almost stopped thinking it could ever happen, after 20 years of having the carrot dangled and then yanked away. But that's all in the past now. I've been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found that this is really happening. I really get to say those words. 'All of the music I've ever made … now belongs… to me.' Swift went on to reiterate that her entire catalog — which consists of music videos, concert films, album art and photography, unreleased songs, plus 'the memories, the magic, the madness, every single era, [her] entire life's work' — belongs to 2019, record executive Scooter Braun bought the rights to her first six albums — 'Taylor Swift,' 'Fearless,' 'Speak Now,' 'Red,' '1989' and 'Reputation' — for $300 million (allegedly without her approval) before they were acquired by the investment firm Shamrock Capital a year later. In 2018, however, Swift signed a new deal with Universal Music Group and Republic Records, where she recorded and owns the masters of 'Lover,' 'Folklore,' 'Evermore,' 'Midnights' and 'The Tortured Poets Department.' The 'Lover' songstress went on to explain in her letter that her music was so important to her and to her fans that she 'meticulously re-recorded and released' four of her albums, which she called 'Taylor's Version.' 'The passionate support you showed those albums and the success story you turned The Eras Tour into is why I was able to buy back my music,' she noted. 'I can't thank you enough for helping to reunite me with this art that I have dedicated my life to, but have never owned until now.' She went on to thank Shamrock Capital for 'being the first people' to offer her the chance to buy back her masters. 'They really saw it for what it was to me: My memories and my sweat and my handwriting and my decades of dreams,' she said before joking that her first tattoo might be a 'huge shamrock in the middle of my forehead.' The Grammy award winner then addressed Swifties' incessant theories that she would soon announce 'Reputation (Taylor's Version)', admitting, 'I haven't even re-recorded a quarter of it.' She explained that she couldn't seem to get in the zone because the album was 'so specific to that time in my life,' where she longed 'to be understood while feeling purposely misunderstood.' 'To be perfectly honest, it's the one album in those first 6 that I thought couldn't be improved upon by redoing it […] so I kept putting it off.' However, she promised that fans would get to listen to the unreleased vault tracks when the time is right and if they 'are into the idea.' On the other hand, she confessed to having re-recorded her debut album, 'Taylor Swift,' and she 'really [loves] how it sounds now.' 'Those 2 albums can still have their moments to re-emerge when the time is right, if that would be something you guys would be excited about. But if it happens, it won't be from a place of sadness and longing for what I wish I could have. It will just be a celebration now.' Additionally, Swift addressed how other celebrities have been inspired to 'negotiate to own their master recordings in their record contract.' 'Because of this fight, I'm reminded of how important it was for all of this to happen,' she said before thanking her fellow artists for making the conversation into a 'broad discussion.' 'You'll never know how much it means to me that you cared. Every single bit of it counted and ended us up here.' An 'elated and amazed' Swift concluded her emotional letter by quoting her song 'Mine,' 'The best things that have ever been mine … finally actually are.' The songwriter also broke her social media silence to celebrate the win by sharing photos of her sitting with her first six original albums fanned around her. 'You belong with me,' she captioned the post, quoting her famous 2008 song. Swift's announcement comes a little over a week after sources told Page Six that she finally had a chance to buy back the original recordings of her first six albums. And the deal was backed by none other than Braun himself, whom Swift had previously dubbed a 'bully' and the 'definition of toxic male privilege' in the music industry. 'Interestingly enough, one of the individuals who is encouraging this deal to take place is Scooter, who was at the center of the deal the first time around alongside Big Machine,' said a source, referencing Swift's original record label. We estimated, at the time, that the price tag for her masters would be anywhere between $600 million and $1 billion, according to Clayton Durant, founder of the music consulting firm CAD Management. 'If she could claw back and create a deal structure where she could get the rights to her original recordings, she exponentially increases the amount of money she makes,' Durant told Page Six. 'She's making money off the publishing still from the [original] songs,' but not as much as from the Taylor's Versions, he said. He also noted, 'When she puts out a re-recording version, consumption also spikes on the original.' Following the re-recording of her albums, plus her years-long Eras Tour, Swift became a billionaire in early 2024. Just last night, Swift was spotted dressed to the nines as she went out to dinner in New York City with Dakota Johnson. However, missing from their outing was Travis Kelce, whom the singer has been dating for almost two years.
