DONALD TRUMP WANTS KIM KARDASHIAN ENDORSEMENT

Donald Trump has a Taylor Swift problem and he was hoping his daughter Ivanka could fix it. We were the FIRST to report the influence Taylor could have on the upcoming presidential election – the mainstream media finally caught up with us weeks later – so don’t be surprised if you read this story everywhere in the future. Donald was hoping to get Ivanka to kiss up to Taylor in hopes of getting her endorsement (long shot) or more likely get her to remain silent and not endorse Joe Biden. Ivanka reminded her dad that it wouldn’t work since she’s very friendly with Taylor’s nemesis Kim Kardashian. Shockingly, Trump agreed (let’s face it he never agrees unless he claims it was his idea) so now he’s leaning on Ivanka to get KIM to endorse him as a way to combat Taylor. Ivanka has reluctantly agreed to broach the subject with Kim, but even if she is successful, it likely won’t be enough to counteract the Taylor effect. Although the Kardashians are still popular, their influence among fans is nothing compared to the power Taylor holds over hers.

CAN JUSTIN BIEBER DO FOR HOCKEY WHAT TAYLOR SWIFT DID FOR FOOTBALL?

We’re not sure, but that’s what the NHL is hoping for. Taylor’s constant presence at games (where she’s rooting for her boyfriend, Kansas City Chief’s Travis Kelce) has brought in millions of new viewers, even shattering TV ratings for the Super Bowl. The National Hockey League took notice and that’s why they tapped Canadian born lifelong hockey fan Justin to design their recent All Star uniforms. However, that’s only the beginning. Justin is being encouraged to become a very public investor in a team and bring his celebrity pals to games in hopes of creating the Taylor effect and make the sport more popular.

CHER IS RETHINKING HER WILL

If she could turn back time, Cher might have taken a stricter approach raising her allegedly troubled 47 year old son Elijah Blue. But that’s not an option, so she’s doing the next best thing – rewriting her will! Cher was unsuccessful in her recent court battle to be named Elijah’s conservator, so now she’s making sure any money he might inherit from her estate won’t go directly to him. Although Elijah’s dad, Gregg Allman, left him a trust when he passed away in 2017, it’s a pittance compared to Cher’s net worth. Given his struggles with sobriety, Cher is deciding what -if anything- to leave her son. One thing is for certain, even if she decides to keep him in her will, Elijah will never have direct access to one cent of her money!

BRAD PITT’S MIRAVAL CHATEAU WINE LOST ITS APPEAL

When it comes to wine, it appears that Angelina Jolie has more status than her ex-husband, Brad Pitt. During their marriage, Brad and Angelina launched their winery, Chateau Miraval, with a rose wine that became an instant status symbol. As their popularity as a couple grew, so did the price of the wine – it got so expensive at one point that retailers like Trader Joe’s stopped carrying it. Well the marriage didn’t last, and Angie sold her interest in the Chateau and winery to a Russian oligarch and apparently it’s no longer as in demand as when it was affiliated with the attractive couple. Case in point: it’s back at Trader Joe’s selling for less than HALF of what it did a few years back. A wine industry source explains that when unproven allegations of violence came out against Brad during the divorce, the brand got tainted and lost its popularity among its formerly loyal female clientele.

HARRISON FORD: UNDERCOVER NICE GUY

This is the type of Good Samaritan item that publicists LOVE to plant about their clients, but in this case it isn’t coming from a publicist so it actually happened! Last year,  avid pilot Harrison Ford heard at the hangar (where he parks his plane in Santa Monica) that one of the ground crew was diagnosed with a terminal disease. Harrison arranged for the guy and his family to visit Hawaii, picking up the tab for the a week long vacation. And when the worker passed, Ford paid for the burial and celebration of life. A source reveals Harrison insisted on keeping his generosity anonymous, but we couldn’t help but share.

WHO REALLY PAID FOR TRAVIS KELCE’S MILLION DOLLAR SUPER BOWL SUITE?

Gossip update!  TMZ just revealed that Travis Kelce plopped down approximately A MILLION DOLLARS for a SUITE at the Super Bowl for his family, Taylor Swift,  and her friends and family. (See link below) While it’s true, Taylor IS attending the big game, it wasn’t exactly Travis who paid for the suite. Our NFL insider reveals that league, team, stadium owners and network all did some creative accounting to cover the cost of the suite. The logistics are a bit complicated but no one wanted to give the impression that Taylor got the suite for free in exchange for attending the game. All parties involved didn’t want to see THAT precedent for fear that OTHER celebrities would start demanding the same perk to attend games! So while Travis is technically paying for the suite (so it looks kosher on paper) a plan is already in place to REIMBURSE him with an “appearance fee” to cover the cost of the suite. Long story short, as we previously reported, Taylor got what she wanted to appear at the game.

REIGN DISICK HAS A MIND OF HIS OWN

Kourtney Kardashian and her two kids with her ex Scott Disick, Penelope and Reign, are in Australia where her current husband Travis Barker is performing on tour. You can’t help but notice that at 9 years of age, Reign seems to be taking after his cousin North West. He’s got style and attitude to burn, and already looks quite confident. And Reign obviously loves fashion –  like so many in his family…

NIKKI HALEY WILL NOT ALWAYS FORGIVE AND FORGET

Another juicy piece of DC gossip from our political insider that we couldn’t wait to share: They say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and Nikki Haley is scorned! As the then Governor of South Carolina Nikki appointed Tim Scott as a Senator when the seat became open. How did he thank her? By sucking up to her Republican opponent Donald Trump and endorsing him instead! Tim’s cringe-worthy drooling over Trump only got worse when Trump started badmouthing Nikki and Tim all but went along. My source says that if she doesn’t become the Republican nominee (and at this point it looks like a long shot) Nikki plans to run against Tim when his Senate term is up in 5 years. As my source puts it, Nikki will never forgive Tim. Of course, a lot could change between now and then, but Nikki is rightfully upset at Tim’s betrayal and wants revenge.

JD VANCE WANTS TO BE VICE-PRESIDENT REAL BAD

Good gossip is good gossip and as you know, we sometimes share juicy political scoops. Ohio Senator JD Vance embarrassed himself during a recent ABC interview when he stated he would NOT have certified the election if HE were the VP at that time. Who can forget the January 6 riots when the Capital was stormed because then VP Mike Pence did the right thing and certified the results, declaring Joe Biden the winner. According to our DC insider, JD is working overtime to brownnose up to Trump, and his ABC interview was part of his plan. Our source says that he’s planning to make more and more outlandish statements like that in hopes of getting Trump to appoint his as Vice President. My source also says he’s boasting to “anyone who will listen” that he’s planning to spend time with Trump at Mar-a-Lago this winter. We hate to break it to JD, but unless he plans on transitioning into a female, he won’t be Trump’s VP. Now here’s the real scoop:  During a recent conference call with mega donors ( think MILLIONS) Trump let it slip that he is picking a WOMAN to be his running mate…
