Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift enjoy rare night out at Stanley Cup Final Game 4

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift might be enchanted with hockey now. The star couple was on hand at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida, for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Panthers and Oilers, won 5-4 by Edmonton in overtime, evening the series at two games apiece.

Getty Images The two were even spotted chatting it up with NHL icon Wayne Gretzky. Swift, 35, has had plenty of viral hockey moments in life, including a reveal of the 2009-10 Predators then-new third jerseys during a concert in Nashville and, four years later, taking a picture with former Hurricanes star Joel Skinner, even holding up his jersey. She also donned Islanders gear in a skit with Jimmy Fallon for the 'Tonight Show' in 2015. Kelce, who previously posted about his love of playoff hockey, and his brother Jason debated in October on the 'New Heights' podcast about which NHL players could also play in the NFL, and they named Oilers star Connor McDavid as one who could.

Getty Images In April, a source told Page Six that Swift and Kelce have enjoyed a 'special' offseason, which has largely been low-key after the Chiefs lost the Super Bowl to the Eagles. Advertisement 'They are making the most of their time off together. They are hanging out with friends, too. It's a special time for them,' the source said. The two were spotted last month in Philadelphia to celebrate Mother's Day, though before that, they opted out of the Met Gala in New York due to scheduling issues. Kelce, who announced earlier this offseason that he is coming back to the Chiefs for at least one more year, will likely have more of Swift at games this year as she is not touring this coming season. 'Taylor is really looking forward to the upcoming NFL season,' a source told People on Thursday. Not just because she loves supporting Travis, but because for the first full season since they started dating, she's not juggling a packed tour schedule.

It's the first season where she's not constantly flying back and forth or working around an entire touring calendar.'

There Are New Reports On Taylor Swift's Relationship With Travis Kelce After Her "Demanding" And "Packed" Work Schedule

Taylor Swift is enjoying her time off after finishing her record-breaking Eras Tour last year. The tour launched in 2023 and made history as the highest-grossing tour ever with over $2 billion in ticket sales. It was comprised of 149 shows and took Taylor all across the globe, from the US and Canada to Asia and Latin America, before concluding in December. Since then, she's been spending quality time with Travis Kelce, whom she began dating in 2023, and as the upcoming NFL season approaches, sources say she's also looking forward to supporting him on the sidelines. A source tells People, "Taylor is really looking forward to the upcoming NFL season. Not just because she loves supporting Travis, but because for the first full season since they started dating, she's not juggling a packed tour schedule."

But, as the source said, it was challenging.

And now that the tour is over, the source said Taylor is "genuinely excited to have the time and flexibility to show up for Travis more consistently." "This fall will be completely different," the source continued. "Taylor plans to be at as many of his games as possible. They've both had such demanding schedules for so long, so having this stretch of time where things aren't quite as chaotic feels like a welcome change." The source added that it's also "a chance for them to settle into more of a routine" and that Taylor and Travis are "both really happy about that." Aww! Can't wait to see her at the games! (Let's just hope the crowds are a little nicer this time.) BuzzFeed has contacted reps for Taylor and Travis for comment on the report.

Arthur Hamilton, who wrote the enduring ‘Cry Me a River,' dies at 98

It was one of the three songs he wrote for the 1955 film 'Pete Kelly's Blues,' which starred Jack Webb as a jazz musician fighting mobsters in Prohibition-era Kansas City, Missouri. At the time, Webb was also playing his most famous role, Sergeant Joe Friday, on the television series 'Dragnet' (1951-59). Advertisement Peggy Lee, who played an alcoholic performer in the film, sang Mr. Hamilton's 'Sing a Rainbow' and 'He Needs Me.' Ella Fitzgerald, who was also in the film, sang 'Cry Me a River,' but her rendition was cut by Webb, who was also the director and producer. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up 'Arthur said to me that the irony was that when Ella recorded it' -- years later, for her 1961 album 'Clap Hands, Here Comes Charlie!' -- 'he thought she made one of the greatest recordings of it ever,' Michael Feinstein, the singer and pianist, said in an interview. 'But Jack felt she didn't have the emotional bandwidth to do it justice.' Mr. Hamilton quickly made the song available to London, a friend from high school who was also Webb's ex-wife. It became a hit, rising to No. 9 on the Billboard singles chart in 1955. Advertisement The song is a bitter rebuke from a jilted lover: Now you say you're sorry For being so untrue Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river I cried a river over you. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal in 2010, Mr. Hamilton explained why he used the phrase 'cry me a river.' 'Instead of 'eat your heart out,' or 'I'll get even with you,' it sounded like a good, smart retort to somebody who had hurt your feelings or broken your heart,' he said. The song has been covered by Barbra Streisand, Joe Cocker, Ray Charles, Aerosmith and, in 2009, the crooner Michael Bublé, who sang it before Queen Elizabeth II. Bublé told The Wall Street Journal in 2010 that the song stood out for its lack of sentimentality. 'There's almost a darkness that sort of distinguishes it from so many other songs,' he said. 'Even if you listen to Julie London's version, it's very dark.' London's 'Cry Me a River' was added to the National Recording Registry at the Library of Congress in 2015. 'Delivered in a soft, breathy style, 'Cry' is basically a revenge anthem, but it nevertheless becomes a romantic come-hither,' Cary O'Dell wrote in an essay for the registry. Arthur Hamilton Stern was born on Oct. 22, 1926, in Seattle, and moved to Los Angeles with his parents when he was a baby. His father, Jack Stern, wrote songs for several films, including 'Folies Bergère de Paris' (1935), which starred Maurice Chevalier, and was also a publicist for Irving Berlin. His mother, Grace (Hamilton) Stern, was a singer who occasionally wrote lyrics for her husband's songs. Advertisement Mr. Hamilton learned to play on the pianos in his house and received a further education from watching performances by the cabaret pianist and singer Bobby Short in a club in Beverly Hills. 'I told people many times, 'I didn't go to college. I went to Bobby Short,'' he said in 2020 on 'The Paul Leslie Hour,' a podcast. Mr. Hamilton wrote the score for a stage musical, 'What a Day,' that was telecast live on the Los Angeles television station KTTV, in 1949; worked for a music publishing company; and signed a contract to write songs for Webb -- first for 'Dragnet,' where his tune 'Any Questions?' was sung in an episode by Peggy King, and then for 'Pete Kelly's Blues. Composing music for 'Pete Kelly's Blues' was a big break for Mr. Hamilton. 'Four years ago,' according to a 1955 article in The Oakland Tribune, 'he was delivering drugs for a chain of local pharmacies. He was a frustrated songwriter who spent his spare time scribbling lyrics on the backs of prescription blanks.' Lee's recording of 'He Needs Me' was included in the album 'Songs From 'Pete Kelly's Blues'' (1955), and the song was later covered by Cleo Laine, Nina Simone and others. Both Bobby Darin and Marvin Gaye recorded it as 'She Needs Me.' In 1970, Mr. Hamilton collaborated with Riz Ortolani on 'Till Love Touches Your Life' for the movie 'Madron,' a western filmed in Israel, which starred Richard Boone as a cowboy and Leslie Caron as a nun. It was nominated for an Oscar for best original song but lost to 'For All We Know,' from 'Lovers and Other Strangers.' Advertisement Mr. Hamilton and Pat Williams were nominated for Primetime Emmys for their songs for the TV movies 'Blind Spot' (1993) and 'The Corpse Had a Familiar Face' (1994). Mr. Hamilton's survivors include his wife, Joyce (Maurer) Hamilton, and a daughter, Claudia Hamilton. His marriage to Mildred Winter ended in divorce. Feinstein, an expert on the Great American Songbook who wrote songs with Hamilton about 15 years ago, said that 'Cry Me a River' resonates in part because its emotional intensity builds throughout. 'Songs that are simply not about the clichéd expressions of love,' he said, 'have the potential to endure longer than the garden variety love song, because they express something that is a catharsis for people.'
