One of Taylor Swift's BFF's Sisters Said Something Saucy to Encourage Travis Kelce Romance
Taylor Swift's relationship with Travis Kelce all started with a tarot reading, and a rather saucy comment.
Gigi Hadid's older sister, Marielle Hadid, revealed on the Nice Girls Don't Win podcast that she encouraged Swift to date Kelce, even for 'a good lay,' and it was all thanks to a tarot reading session.

'I did pull a card for her because I had seen something where [Travis] had said that he wanted to date her,' she said, telling Swift she 'should date' Kelce.
'So, I told Gigi and I told her, I was like, 'Come on, even if it's just for fun. So, I pulled this card for her, and I don't exactly remember which deck it was, but I remember that it was in regards to this, and the word 'swiftly' was in the reading,' she recounted. 'So, I take all responsibility for [the relationship]! I was like, 'Come on.' … She deserves it.'
As many know, Gigi and Swift have been pals since 2015. However, they first met the year prior, in March 2014, at the 2014 Vanity Fair Oscar Party.
And Swift once gushed about Hadid in a 2017 Harper's Bazaar profile. 'As a friend, Gigi is one of the first people I go to for advice. She has this incredible ability to see all sides of a situation and simplify it for you, to see the complexity of people,' Swift said. 'Gigi's #1 rule is to treat people the way she'd want to be treated, so she's on time (or early) to work, says hello to everyone on set, asks them how they are, and actually listens to their response.'
But what about Bella, Alana, Anwar, or Marielle? Or Gigi and Bella's half sister Aydan Nix? Well, Bella isn't a part of Swift's squad, and it just seems like more of an acquaintance relationship. It's unclear if Swift has any relationship at all with Alana, Anwar, and Nix.
However, Marielle definitely has a bond with Swift. Along with this moment in their friendship, Marielle joined Gigi on Swift's private jet to attend an Eras Tour concert in Santa Clara, California back in 2023, so there's definitely a bond there!
For those who don't know, Kelce and Swift have been dating since July 2023, but didn't make their romance known until months later, when Swift arrived at one of his games.
(Kelce even talked about his crush on her on his podcast with his brother months prior to her going to one of his games.)
Back in Jan 2024, Kelce spoke on the Pat McAfee Show via Today about Swift, saying, 'We just have fun with it. We enjoy every single bit of it. I love it when Taylor comes and supports me and enjoys the game with the fam and friends. But it's been nothing but just a wonderful year.'Best of SheKnows

UNM researchers make new discovery about Yellowstone National Park supervolcano
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – It's one of the world's largest supervolcanoes, and recent work out of the University of New Mexico led to a breakthrough discovery that could help geoscientists better predict an eruption and save lives. 'So it's very satisfying to see that come to fruition,' said Tobias Fischer, Distinguished Professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at UNM. Story continues below Crime: Albuquerque business owner faces murder charge for shooting fleeing shoplifter News: Las Vegas deputy charged with aggravated battery and robbery Business: A downtown Albuquerque shoe shine parlor is still serving patrons after nearly a century Events: What's happening around New Mexico May 30-June 5? Kirtland Air Fiesta and more Fischer teamed up with a colleague to investigate Yellowstone National Park's volcanic system. 'Professor Brandon Schmandt is really the person who started this project. He's a geophysicist and he wanted to investigate the composition of the magma and where the magma is under Yellowstone, and especially how much volatiles are in the magma right now,' said Fischer. Fischer said Yellowstone's last volcanic eruption was about 70,000 years ago, and there is still an entire system sitting below the park today. 'So the hydrothermal system has all these beautiful geysers and hot springs and mud pots that attract millions of people a year to see the park and see these features,' said Fischer. Last August, KRQE News 13 reported on a 'localized' hydrothermal explosion that happened at the national park. The team's study led them to look at earthquakes they produced themselves with a big thumper truck. 'With that detailed geophysical study, they can make a very nice CT scan essentially of what's under Yellowstone, and they discovered that there is a really gas-rich, volatile-rich cap on top of the magma chamber,' said Fischer. Fischer said that when volcanoes erupt, they are driven by new magma coming into the system. They use samples from Yellowstone on a machine in one of UNM's labs to learn more. 'As magma rises towards the surface, gases like water and CO2 exalt from that magma at shallower levels,' said Fischer. Those gases migrate up to the surface and then eventually accumulate at some depth. The group found exactly where that accumulation happens, allowing them a better picture at what's taking place right under our feet. 'So it's a very detailed image of the quantity of water, the quantities of pores, the quantities of magma, and where exactly it sits under Yellowstone and how big it is,' said Fischer. Fischer said the Yellowstone system is similar to the Valles Caldera in New Mexico. Although Valles Caldera is smaller, it's a super volcano that produced large eruptions roughly a million years ago.

Harvard Chinese grad speech draws praise and ire
A Chinese Harvard graduate's speech calling for unity in a divided world, delivered days after the US vowed to "aggressively" revoke Chinese students' visas, has sparked mixed reactions in the US and her home country. "We don't rise by proving each other wrong. We rise by refusing to let one another go," Jiang Yurong said on Thursday, the same day a US federal judge blocked the Trump administration's ban on foreign students at Harvard. Her speech went viral on the Chinese internet, with some saying it moved them to tears. However, others said her elite background is not representative of Chinese students. In the US, some have flagged her alleged links with the Chinese Communist Party. In their efforts to restrict Harvard from enrolling foreign students, US authorities had accused the institution of "co-ordinating with the Chinese Communist Party". Ms Jiang, who studied international development, was the first Chinese woman to speak at a Harvard graduation ceremony. In her address, Ms Jiang emphasised the value of Harvard's international classrooms, noting how that taught her and her classmates to "dance through each other's traditions" and "carry the weight of each other's worlds". "If we still believe in a shared future, let us not forget: those we label as enemies - they, too, are human. In seeing their humanity, we find our own," said Ms Jiang, who spent her final two years of school at Cardiff Sixth Form College in Wales before going to Duke University in the US for her undergraduate degree. A conservative X account, with the handle @amuse, criticised Harvard for choosing a graduation speaker who is "a representative of a CCP-funded and monitored non-government organisation", alleging that her father works for a non-government organisation that "serves as a quasi-diplomatic agent for the [party]". The account, which has 639,000 followers, has previously posted pro-Donald Trump content, such as the US leader fighting Darth Vader and sexualised imagery of former Vice-President Kamala Harris. Some Chinese social media users, on the other hand, allege that the organisation Ms Jiang's father works for is backed by prominent American companies and foundations. The BBC has not independently verified these allegations. "This is why she could get a scholarship to go to the UK for high school, and later also to Harvard," wrote a user on China's X-like platform, Weibo. Others called for her to stay on in the US, with comments that reeked with sarcasm. "Such talent should be left to the United States," one wrote. "I hope she will continue to glow abroad and stay away from us!" read another. But Ms Jiang's vision of a "shared humanity" also struck a chord. "That she is able to stand on an international stage and speak the heart of Chinese students has moved me to tears," wrote a user on Red Note, another Chinese social media platform. Another user defended Jiang by hitting back at those who criticised her: "You may not have changed them, but they've heard you... As more and more people speak out like you, you will eventually move and change others." There are around 6,800 international students at Harvard, who make up more than 27% of its enrolments in the past academic year. About a third of these foreign students are from China, and more than 700 are Indian. Students or spies? The young Chinese caught in Trump's crosshairs 'We did not sign up for this': Harvard's foreign students are stuck and scared

Gwyneth Paltrow Gets Real About Disliking Being On Social Media As A Famous Person: 'I'm Like An Old Lady'
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. If nothing else, you can, seemingly always, say that actress Gwyneth Paltrow is honest. The proud vagina candle maven has been known to open up about everything from hiding in her parents house after winning her Oscar at 26, to living with ex Chris Martin after they split and how hard it is to be an empty-nester. Now the Marvel star is opening up about being 'an old lady' when it comes to social media. While it's not impossible to be famous today and stay off social media (or at least not put your whole life online), it's not something that's done on a regular basis. In fact, most people, whether they're celebrities or not, use social media regularly, but the pressure to show every aspect of one's life must certainly be greater the more well known a person is. During an episode of The Goop Podcast where Gwyneth Paltrow spoke with actress Kerry Washington, the welcoming lifestyle company founder spoke about her feelings on social media, and admitted that some of her reticence likely has to do with age. As she said: There's a part of it I think that just is like a pre-Internet kid. I always wrestle a little bit with, 'Why are we having to put everything on social media? We just met with our video team. I'm always like, 'Chase, I don't want to be on Instagram!' You know? OMG. Gwynnie! I don't want to be on Instagram, either! But I am, because it's just what people do now. Of course, no one is expecting me to share literally everything I do during the day, so I'm totally free to sit back, follow a bunch of other folks and enjoy the view. When fans see Paltrow on social media, well, they want her to share things. Several stars have spoken about the immense pressure that can come from being online and opening your life up to fans. It has, in fact, caused a number of them to at least take breaks from it. Recently, A Complete Unknown star and Oscar nominee Monica Barbaro admitted that she's deleted her social media several times, and had to do it while filming that movie and again as positive reactions came in. Other famous folk have talked about doing the same social media 'detox' for a while, with Only Murders in the Building lead Selena Gomez calling the process 'the most rewarding gift.' This is likely because, as Home Town host Erin Napier once noted, regardless of what you post, the comments can be 'really rude.' While that can certainly harm one's mental health, however, the potential positives tend to outweigh some of the negatives for Paltrow, and that's exactly why she continues to use it. As she added: And yet, especially around the topic of mental health, or anything really that's heavily stigmatized, social media is this way to destigmatize. ... [like] wait, this is how you change culture and the tools right now are social media. So even though I'm like an old lady trying to get with the times of how this works... [I try to] get comfortable with it. And, lucky for us, she has gotten 'comfortable' with it and continues to share with fans on a regular basis.
