Kim Kardashian shows support for Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds amid ongoing Taylor Swift lawsuit drama
Kim Kardashian made waves on social media Sunday by showing support for her rival Taylor Swift's former confidantes, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, amid ongoing tensions in their circle. Kardashian, 44, posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram for her son Psalm's sixth birthday party, but the timing of her gesture has raised eyebrows, as Lively and Swift's friendship has been strained due to a lawsuit.
The reality star, who boasts 356 million Instagram followers, shared a series of images from the Deadpool and Wolverine-themed birthday bash she threw for Psalm, complete with custom decorations and a cake featuring the two characters. Although the post was a simple celebration of her son's milestone, Kardashian's choice to publicly showcase support for Lively and Reynolds comes at a time when Swift is reportedly distancing herself from the actress due to a growing legal dispute.
Sources close to Swift have revealed the singer is frustrated with Lively, particularly amid the ongoing litigation related to It Ends with Us, the movie Lively is working on with Justin Baldoni. 'Right now, if Taylor had one wish, it would be that she never met Blake,' a source told Daily Mail. Swift has reportedly come to see red flags in the friendship that caused her more stress than it was worth.
Kardashian's public endorsement of Lively and Reynolds couldn't come at a more critical time. The actors, who once enjoyed a close friendship with Swift, have recently been entangled in the drama surrounding the lawsuit. Kardashian's gesture, shared with nearly 350,000 likes, was noticed by several notable figures, including her sister Khloé Kardashian, who sent a heart-filled response to the post.
The underlying tensions between Swift and Kardashian date back to the infamous 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when Kanye West interrupted Swift's speech, sparking years of animosity. While the two stars briefly reconciled, the situation reignited with West's 2016 song Famous, and the public fallout between Swift and Kardashian deepened. Kardashian's tweet, calling Swift a 'snake' in 2016, only escalated the feud, which continues to simmer today.

Stefon Diggs quotes Quavo amid Cardi B and Offset drama
NFL star Stefon Diggs closed out May with a cryptic Instagram post that's gaining attention due to ongoing drama between his girlfriend, Cardi B, and her ex-husband, Offset. Diggs, who hard-launched his relationship with the rapper at a Knicks game last month, posted a reflective message alongside a clip of Quavo, Offset's former Migos bandmate, saying 'wrap it up.' The timing of the post didn't go unnoticed, especially as tensions between Cardi B and Offset continue to escalate. Last week, Offset made headlines for reportedly seeking spousal support, prompting Cardi B to respond with a fiery Twitter Spaces rant where she expressed extreme frustration over their split. In her outburst, Cardi B said, 'I want you to die fcking slow… and while you die, n**a, you gotta think of me.' The explicit statement sparked renewed attention on the acrimonious divorce. Meanwhile, Diggs has also faced scrutiny after a viral boat video surfaced showing him surrounded by several women. Some of Cardi B's fans were quick to criticize the footage. However, the rapper appeared unbothered, reposting Diggs' recent Instagram Story to show public support. With both romantic and public challenges in the spotlight, Diggs' subtle use of a Quavo clip has added fuel to speculation about tensions between the exes and their new partners. As June begins, fans continue to monitor how the Cardi B–Offset fallout and Diggs' rising profile in the entertainment world will evolve.

Sydney Sweeney breaks silence on split from fiancé, Glen Powell rumors swirl
Sydney Sweeney has officially confirmed her breakup with longtime fiancé Jonathan Davino, while rumors about her and co-star Glen Powell continue to swirl. In a candid interview with The Times published on May 31, the Euphoria actress revealed she's single and enjoying her independence after ending the engagement. When asked if she was still planning her wedding to Davino, Sweeney simply replied, 'No.' She then confirmed the split, marking the end of their relationship that began in 2018. Davino had proposed in 2022, but their engagement quietly ended earlier this year. While Sweeney didn't address speculation about her possible romance with Anyone But You co-star Glen Powell, she did say she's thriving in her new single era. 'I'm learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends. And I'm loving it,' she said. Sources close to the star suggested that her busy career played a major role in the breakup. With multiple projects in the pipeline, including Euphoria and a biopic about boxer Christy Martin, Sweeney is focused on work. 'She's exactly where she wants to be,' a source told People, adding, 'They didn't split because there's no love, but because she's prioritizing her career.' Sweeney has also been sharing glimpses of her new lifestyle on Instagram—spending time with her new puppy, Tank, and enjoying downtime in bikinis between shoots—as fans continue to follow her next moves both on and off screen.

Taylor Swift music surges on streaming charts after reclaiming master rights
Taylor Swift has successfully repurchased her entire music catalog from Shamrock Capital, ending a years-long battle over ownership. The pop star revealed the news Friday in a message to fans, describing it as reclaiming her 'life's work.' This move triggered a massive resurgence in streaming numbers. The original versions of Reputation and Taylor Swift—often referred to by fans as the "stolen versions"—have returned to the top of Apple Music's Top 100 Albums chart, according to data from Forbes, Pop Vortex, and Pop Base. At one point, all 15 of Swift's studio albums reportedly charted within the platform's top 100. The catalog's performance was so strong that it knocked Morgan Wallen's I'm the Problem from the top spot. Miley Cyrus also entered the conversation, landing in the top five with her latest album Something Beautiful. For years, Swift re-recorded her early albums to reclaim ownership after her master recordings were sold to Scooter Braun and later to Shamrock Capital. She has already released Fearless (Taylor's Version), Speak Now, Red, and 1989, leaving only Reputation and her 2006 self-titled debut without re-recorded versions. Despite fan speculation, Swift revealed she has no immediate plans to release Reputation (Taylor's Version). In a statement, she explained the album was deeply personal and creatively difficult to revisit: 'To be perfectly honest, it's the one album in those first six that I thought couldn't be improved upon.' However, Swift hinted that vault tracks from Reputation may eventually be released. She also noted that the debut album has already been re-recorded and could be shared when the time feels right, not out of longing, but as a celebration.
