WHY TAYLOR SWIFT AND BRITTANY MAHOMES APPEAR FRIENDLIER

Don’t think for a second that Taylor Swift is buddy buddy with MAGA lover, Brittany Mahomes just because the gals were photographed hugging over the past weekend at the US Open. (above) Taylor’s boyfriend Travis Kelce and Brit’s husband Patrick are not only Kansas City Chiefs, teammates they’re ALSO best friends, and the feud among their better-halves became a problem. My source explains that Travis persuaded Taylor to be friendly with Brit, but only within her comfort zone. Meaning this: They aren’t hanging out (which is why they didn’t have a group dinner together while in NYC) but they will be friendly to each other in public situations. As we previously reported, Taylor cooled on Brit months ago, fearing she was a social climber and her seemingly endorsement of Donald Trump was the final straw.

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Billy Ray Cyrus’s Achy Breaky Heart broke again this week when he filed for an annulment from his estranged wife, Australian singer Firerose. While the headlines were scandalous -with both sides leveling accusations against one another- I am hearing it’s going to get even messier. Firerose is now trying to get Billy’s estranged daughter Miley and his ex-wife Tish to testify on her behalf about his history of alleged abuse. As my source puts it, the gloves are off and the punches are coming.

Travis Kelce was on the news when he was seen partying hard on Tuesday in Nashville Tennessee, but his trip wasn’t all fun and games. We heard that when he wasn’t living it up, Travis was actually checking out commercial real estate as he and his teammate Patrick Mahomes are eyeing opening a location of 1587 Prime, their Kansas City steakhouse in Nashville. Only this time their business partner will be Travis’ better half Taylor Swift. Their thinking is while there may not be many Kansas City Chief fans in Nashville, there are plenty of Taylor Swift fans there to fill the seats.

Madonna made the news when a lawsuit two concertgoers filed against her was abruptly dismissed on their part. The suit centered around Madonna starting her concert two hours late and claimed fraud. Here’s what we know. Madonna quickly filed an Anti-Slapp lawsuit against the two so that they would be legally responsible for her legal bills if they lost the seemingly frivolous case. Mere moments after the suit was filed, the duo’s case was dropped. Once again, learn your lesson people, don’t mess with Madonna.

Kevin Costner made the news when he spoke fondly about his time on Yellowstone in a cover story in People magazine. Here’s what we know. The reason for Kevin‘s sudden change of heart is because he’s quietly negotiating to rejoin the show for one final season. Kevin’s interview was his way of extending an olive branch, and if a deal can be reached, Kevin will be back on the popular show.

Finally, the big story of the week was Justin Timberlake’s arrest in Sag Harbor, New York for an alleged DUI. We are hearing two things. Justin‘s wife Jessica Biel has been telling friends that Justin seems to be going through a major midlife crisis as he’s no longer a member of one of the worlds most popular boy bands, but now a middle-aged man with wrinkles and thinning hair. From another source though, we are hearing something a little more nefarious. Some music industry insiders are speculating that the whole incident was planned to give Justin an excuse to postpone or cancel his world tour amid sluggish ticket sales. Although Justin’s team has already come out and denied it to TMZ, my sources agree that he will likely do a stint in rehab to repair his tarnished image.

THE POWER OF TAYLOR SWIFT

Not EVERYONE is happy with Taylor Swift’s blossoming romance with Travis Kelce, and one person who’s on that list is Travis’s close friend (and teammate) Patrick Mahomes. Ever since she started dating Travis, Taylor has taken Patrick’s wife, Brittany, under her wing and introduced her to her A-list pals. In a few short weeks Brittany has gone from being a stay-at-home mom and football wife to painting the town red with Taylor and her fancy friends. My source observed that Patrick isn’t exactly thrilled. Here’s why. All the girls in Taylor’s posse are accomplished in various fields, including entertainment, modeling, and entrepreneurship, and now Brittany is second guessing HER life’s goals. Since she and Patrick were high school sweethearts, she’s never gotten to do much of anything for her own career.  Being around Taylor and her group of independent women has sparked something in Brittany. My source says Patrick loves the woman he married, but fears she’s quickly morphing into someone else.
