Did Taylor Swift attend Travis Kelce’s game for Chiefs-Bills on Sunday afternoon?

With a break in her touring schedule, did the 14-time Grammy winner make the trip to Orchard Park?

With a break in the Eras Tour schedule, there was a question as to whether pop icon Taylor Swift would make her first 2024 season appearance at a Chiefs road game to support boyfriend Travis Kelce. The 14-time Grammy winner just completed three shows at the Rogers Centre in Toronto, with three more next weekend.

It would have been a quick trip from Toronto to Kansas City’s game in Buffalo this weekend, but Swift decided to avoid the away game this week. The The Tortured Poets Department singer was there for the Chiefs’ postseason victory over the Bills in Orchard Park back in January, but recent reports have shared that it may not have been much of an enjoyable experience.

There are two more home games for the Chiefs this month — against the Panthers and Raiders — so we may see Swift back at an NFL game soon.

SNL brings back Domingo with Charli XCX and a Chappell Roan cover

D-O-M-I-N-G-O!

Singer and actress Ariana Grande hosted Saturday Night Live just over one month ago, taking the stand up show by storm on October 12 with Stevie Nicks as her musical guest. On Saturday night, one of Grande’s most iconic and viral performances made a return, as the singing friend group once again told a story about Kelsey with hilarious lyric changes to a popular song.

In the first skit, Grande and SNL regulars Heidi Gardner, Ego Nwodim, and Sarah Sherman serenade Kelsey at her wedding to an off-key version of “Espresso” by Sabrina Carpenter. The new lyrics tell the story of meeting mysterious Domingo (Marcello Hernandez) on the bachelorette party, much to the chagrin of the groom.

This time around, we’re at a baby shower for Kelsey (Chloe Fineman), and the singers are back again. Charli XCX replaces Grande’s character, and the quartet blesses everyone with a remix of Chappell Roan’s “HOT TO GO!”

We just got “direct from Domingo” out of our heads. I guess “D-O-M-I-N-G-O!” will happily take it’s place.

Ariana Grande and Jimmy Fallon hilariously re-enacted an infamous The Wizard of Oz meme

“She came down in a bubble, Doug!”

Wicked hits theaters next week, and anticipation is wildly high for Jon M. Chu’s film adaptation of the popular (see what we did there?) musical. Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo lead a star-studded cast that includes the likes of Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh and Jeff Goldblum.

Grande joined late night host Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show on Thursday night, and the duo decided to recreate an absolutely iconic Wizard of Oz related meme before the show for social media.

In the clip, Grande and Fallon brought the 2018 argument to life, flawlessly delivering lines like “You’re going to look at me and tell me that I’m wrong?” and “She wore a crown, and she came down in a bubble, Doug!”

Absolute perfection.

There’s a lot of handsome on this list.

People Magazine announced John Krasinski as the 2024 Sexiest Man Alive, putting the former camera staring star on the cover of their latest issue. He’s the 39th man to grace the front of the handsomest edition of the year, an honor that dates back to 1985 and Mel Gibson.

There have been actors, singers, athletes and politicians picked to top the list of good looking fellas over the years, and Krasinski is just the latest to add the title to his resume.

Krasinski is best known for his role as Jim Halpert on The Office, but the 45-year-old actor also landed the lead in Prime Video’s Jack Ryan series. He is also married to actress Emily Blunt, and the couple has two children together.

Here’s every one of the sexiest men cover models since 2013.

Glen Powell addressed the Mission Impossible rumors with a funny quote about his mom

Honestly, mom might be right on this one.

The newest trailer for the upcoming eighth Mission: Impossible movie dropped on Monday, ramping up excitement for Ethan Hunt and The Final Reckoning. Tom Cruise once again returns as the lead, looking to somehow outdo his hanging off a dangling train car or jumping off a cliff on a motorcycle stunts.

A report from Hollywood writer Jeff Sneider (@theinsneider) on Tuesday floated the idea that Cruise had his Hunt-in-waiting lined up in Top Gun: Maverick co-star Glen Powell. ESPN’s Pat McAfee wasted no time trying to get to the bottom of the rumor, calling the Twisters actor during Tuesday’s Pat McAfee Show.

When asked about the rumor, Powell had the perfect retort in denial. “My mom would never let me do that.”
