Scooter Braun addresses if Taylor Swift's revenge track 'Vigilante S---' is about him and his ex
So is he shaking it off? Scooter Braun has seen the theories that Taylor Swift's Midnights revenge track "Vigilante S---" is about him. So is he shaking it off? When asked point-blank if the song's lyrics were about him and his ex-wife, Yael Cohen, Braun had an answer ready. "No, because I talk to Yael every day," Braun said on a new episode of the Question Everything podcast. "My ex-wife is one of my best friends, so me and my ex-wife laugh about that stuff. We don't even call each other 'ex.' That's, like, my partner. That's the mother of my children." In the track, which was released in October 2022, Swift sings, "She needed cold hard proof, so I gave her some / She had the envelope, where you think she got it from? / Now she gets the house, gets the kids, gets the pride / Picture me thick as thieves with your ex-wife / And she looks so pretty, driving in your Benz / Lately she's been dressing for revenge." Braun and Cohen, who share three children, separated in July 2021 and finalized their divorce in September 2022. Given the timing — and all of the previous drama between Swift and Braun over the ownership of Swift's masters that dominated headlines in 2019 — fans did what they do best and speculated that "Vigilante S---" must be about Braun. Swifties also hypothesized that another Midnights track, "Karma," referenced him. The singer has never confirmed whom either song is about, if anyone real. Later on the podcast, Braun insisted that he and Cohen are "family for life." "I have a tattoo on my finger that says 'same team' after my divorce because she and I are on the same team for life," he said. "That's what we say to each other. So no, I never thought that ["Vigilante S---"] was about us. She never thought it was about us, and everyone else kind of feeding into the fire — great strategy move, but, like, nah." After 23 years in the business, Braun announced he was retiring from music management in June 2024. At the time, the entrepreneur and record executive said he was stepping back to focus on his position as CEO of HYBE America and on his family. The news came after he unofficially stepped back the previous year from managing top artists such as Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, both of whom helped kick-start his career in the late 2000s. As for Swift, the saga over the ownership of the masters of her music reached a stunning conclusion in May, when the Tortured Poets Department singer revealed that she had bought back her first six albums. Posting a photo of herself surrounded by the vinyl editions of the records, she wrote, "You belong with me." She then published a lengthy letter on her official website in which she stated, "All the music I've ever me." A representative for Braun sent a statement from him to Entertainment Weekly at the time. It read: "I am happy for her." Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly Solve the daily Crossword

Taylor Swift's dad, Scott, finally recovering after quintuple bypass surgery
In a turn of events that shocked Swifties, Taylor Swift's beloved father, Scott Swift, recently underwent quintuple bypass surgery, a serious yet life-saving procedure involving five grafts to restore blood flow to the heart. According to Swift's representative, the operation occurred over a month ago and was not the result of a heart attack. Instead, the issue was discovered during a routine medical check-up, prompting doctors to recommend immediate surgical intervention. Thankfully, the 73-year-old 'Dad of Headliner' is recovering well and surrounded by love. Team Swift was there every step of the way When it comes to family, the Swifts do not mess around. Taylor, her brother Austin, and mum Andrea were all present to support Scott throughout the surgery and his recovery. The tight-knit clan, who fans already know as fiercely loyal, ensured Scott never faced a moment alone. Swift fans may remember Taylor's song 'The Best Day,' where she refers to her dad as 'an excellent father, his strength is making me stronger.' That sentiment rings louder than ever now. Scott is Taylor's biggest cheerleader Scott Swift is not just Taylor's dad. He is a fan favourite in his own right. Known for carrying a pocket full of guitar picks to hand out at concerts, Scott has become a kind of backstage legend among Swifties. Before the Eras Tour kicked off, Taylor herself sketched him a special pass: 'D.O.H. Pass, Dad of Headliner (All Access).' And true to the title, Scott has been spotted at shows across the globe, proudly cheering his daughter on. One lucky traveller, Taylor Moore, even sat next to him on a Southwest flight after the Eras Tour in New Orleans. In a now-viral TikTok, she shared how Scott raved about his daughter, and about a certain NFL star. Apparently, Scott believes Travis Kelce has made the biggest impact out of all of Taylor's boyfriends over the last decade. He also finds the 'Tayvoodoo' theory hilarious, that mystical idea that Taylor can magically influence football games. Now, as Scott takes time to heal, he does so not only with medical support, but with the love of his family and an entire fandom behind him.

Labubu went from America's most viral toy to a doll linked with Pazuzu and demonic vibes: The rise and fall of a toy explained
Twelve weeks ago, Labubu was the must-have. Think designer shelves, TikTok unboxings, and fans queuing like Swifties outside Pop Mart stores. With its big eyes, pointy ears, and slightly gremlin-core grin, the elf-like vinyl toy was everywhere. Resale prices exploded. People fought at airports. Even your chillest friend was posting #LabubuHaul videos. Then… it flipped. Hard. Labubu was the IT girl of dolls, only until it wasn't What began as a harmless collector's obsession has now been swallowed by chaos. Out of nowhere, Labubu went from loveable to downright sinister. Reddit threads and TikToks are now swarming with creepy claims, nightmares, weird electrical flickers, aggressive pets, and that unsettling sensation of being watched. One TikToker insisted their Labubu literally moved on its own. Another Redditor said buying one brought a heavy 'presence' into their room. The internet, naturally, lost its mind. The Pazuzu theory Just when things could not get weirder, they did. A now-deleted TikTok sent conspiracy-lovers into a frenzy by comparing Labubu to Pazuzu, the ancient demon from Mesopotamian mythology (yes, the same one referenced in The Exorcist). The similarities? Big staring eyes, those cursed pointy ears, and that unnervingly cheeky smile. #CursedLabubu and #DemonDoll started trending within hours. Some brushed it off as viral silliness. Others? Already ordering sage online. Pop Mart reacts, and that only fuels the fire around demonic Labubu Sensing the hysteria, Pop Mart stepped in with a damage-control post on Weibo and Instagram. The brand dismissed the supernatural claims but admitted that customer discomfort was being taken seriously. Sales were paused, refunds were offered, and future Labubu drops got shelved. But Gen Z being Gen Z, the acknowledgement only made things feel more cursed. If it really was nothing… then why hit the brakes so hard? Resellers are in chaos. Some are offloading their Labubus like they are possessed Furby twins, while others are charging absurd prices for 'possibly haunted' pieces. 'I don't care if it triples in value, I want it out of my house,' said one panic seller in a Facebook group. Whether this is internet madness or genuine cursed energy is up for debate. But one thing is very legit here, Labubu has officially crossed the line from fandom to folklore.

Call them the 'Era-Bnbs': Three Taylor Swift-inspired Airbnb rentals
A few years before Taylor Swift lit up Nissan Stadium with her Eras Tour, Michelle Basiorka was already dreaming of creating a Swiftie sanctuary in the heart of Nashville. "I was working full-time as a physical therapy assistant," Basiorka recalls. "But then I tore my shoulder and had to take a step back. That's when I decided to get my real estate license and started sketching out ideas for what I thought could be the ultimate fan space." In the spring of 2021, she found a property a stone's throw from the Gulch neighborhood. Over the next two years, she poured her energy into transforming the two-story townhome, carefully curating every detail to be Taylor-made. There is an @airbnb in Nashville completely decked out in eleven eras of @Taylor Swift. This is the @The Swiftie Shangri-La. #taylorswift #taylornation #erastour #swiftok #taylorsversion "Every item in the Airbnb is purposeful," Basiorka said. "The cups and mugs are featured in the 'Anti-Hero' music video. There's a gallery wall with pieces that are symbolic of some sort of lyric. There is a sparkly guitar table that's one-of-a-kind. My fiancé works in glass fabrication so he made the top and then the base is mirror balls. My sister and I literally made them by hand with mirror tiles, and each took 10 hours to make." The property is only one of a few examples of Airbnbs catering to Swifties, filling every nook with Easter eggs nodding to the singer's songs, concerts and eras. Basiorka painted her space a vibrant bubble gum pink. The main living room wall bursts with mementos, art and photos tied to the singer's vast discography. One piece instantly commands attention: a striking "White Horse" statue. Basiorka found the sculpture at a high-end thrift shop in Chicago, where it hung for decades as part of the store's decor. She paid $500 for the piece, but the sales worker couldn't get the art down and told her to come back the next day. "We call him 'Horse-lian' like porcelain," she said. "The artist who made it passed away a few years before, so this was one of the last remaining ones. When we showed up the next day, the actual owner told me he was going to honor the deal, but it wasn't supposed to be for sale." The garish patio is decorated with neon colors like it was pulled from Swift's "You Need To Calm Down" music video. One of the bathroom shower doors has art of the singer's cat, Meredith Grey, with her paw up next to the lyrics, "I think I'm finally clean." Fans can rent out the Swiftie Shangri-La here. The stars shined brighter in Dallas In a northeast suburb of Dallas, a brand-new "Erabnb" is open to fans. "I feel like the Eras Tour is almost a movement for Swifties," said host Summer Rogers. "I've always wanted to create not just an Airbnb, but an experience where Swifties can relive some of the magic from the tour." For the past six months, she converted three rooms inspired by her favorite Eras: "Lover," "Folklore" and "Midnights." The listing went live on July 13, a nod to Swift's favorite number. "I wanted to make an immersive experience," she said. "Each one has a vinyl record of that era. The 'Lover' room has all these pinks and blues, flowers and butterflies. The 'Midnights' room is midnight blue from floor to ceiling. The 'Folklore' room feels like a disco forest and really encapsulates the rustic feel of the album with elements of mirror balls." Fun neon signs of lyrics adorn the walls like "I act like it's my birthday everyday" and "to live for the hope of it all." Near the entryway is a guest book with an interactive Eras Tour movie poster, complete with magnetic cutouts for fans to pose with each version of Swift. "I hope fans, and Taylor, would see this as a legacy of the Eras Tour," Rogers says. "Swifties should favorite this listing to make sure they can find it later on." To book the Texan property, click here. Welcome to Era-zona Tucked near the Biltmore in Phoenix, the "Lavender Hayze Place" is a dreamy desert escape designed entirely with Swifties in mind. A post shared by Scottsdale Bachelorette Photographer (@scottsdalebridetribe) Guests can choose from bedrooms themed after iconic eras — "1989," "Reputation," "Folklore" and "Evermore" — each styled with era-specific details and décor. The two bathrooms pay tribute to "Fearless" and "Midnights," while the living room is bathed in "Lover" tones. A cheeky "breakup wall" features photos of the pop star's famous exes. There's even a glam station for getting ready, complete with a neon sign that declares, "And by the way, I'm going out tonight." Outside, the backyard glitters with disco balls.
