HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW
Travis Kelce shocked just about everyone when he decided to sign on with the Kansas City Chiefs for another year ( his 14th) after many expected him to hang up his cleats and retire. Here’s what we know. While Kansas City fans are obviously thrilled over the news, his fiancé Taylor Swift is anything but. According to my source, Taylor was ready for Travis to give up on football so they could begin their new life together in Beverly Hills. But after a disappointing last season, Travis decided he wanted to go out as a winner and wanted to play ONE more season. Although disappointed, Taylor has agreed to support his decision and their wedding is still planned for June.
America’s newest sweetheart, Olympic gold medalist Alysa Liu, was all over the news for many reasons as her popularity continues to soar. Here is what we know – the fashion label Louis Vuitton whisked Alysa to Paris so she could sit front row at the recent fashion show, but that’s not all. She’s also been tapped to appear in an upcoming ad campaign for the luxury brand. Our well placed source reveals that the brand is especially smitten with Alysa’s unusual two toned striped hair – especially because the colors closely resemble one of their signature logos (dark brown and tan).
Timothée Chalamet was in the news because some recent unflattering comments he made about ballet and opera surfaced. Here is what we know. Ironically many of Timothee’s female relatives are ballerinas and THEY especially gave him grief over the comments. The nominated actor is treading lightly until Oscar season wraps up on Sunday, but soon after he’s already planned a public interview where he will address his comments and apologize to those in the arts.
The Oscars held their annual press preview on Tuesday, March 10, to showcase the food, the decor and the theme of this year’s event. We can tell you this. What wasn’t discussed in front of the press was extra SECURITY precautions the Academy is taking in light of the war in the Middle East. My source says security will be the tightest that it has been in years and even drones will be deployed to monitor the area.
Britney Spears was in the news when she was charged with driving under the influence. We can tell you this. Britney’s friends, including Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian, have offered to let the troubled singer temporarily move in (they would take turns ) so that she doesn’t have to live alone. According to my source, Britney’s problems seem to come from loneliness. She recently let go much of her staff and her handlers, including a sober companion, and as the saying goes – an idle mind is the devil’s playground. Both Paris and Kim feel what Britney really needs is some stability so don’t be too surprised if you start seeing them together more often.
Daryl Hannah was in the news when she blasted the way her relationship with JFK Junior was portrayed in Love Story. We can tell you this. Daryl is portrayed by Dree Hemingway (Ernest’s great granddaughter) and her mom Mariel just happens to be buddies with Daryl. Therein lies the problem. The friendship between Daryl and Mariel quickly turned rocky and now their mutual friends group is choosing sides. The fallout is severe with lunches and parties being canceled as these society types have splintered into team Daryl or team Mariel. My source adds that Dree feels bad that her job affected her mom’s friendship with the Splash actress, but doesn’t know if she can fix it since the damage is already done.
Meghan Markle was in the news when it was revealed Netflix was ending their collaboration (which also included products distribution). Here’s what we know. Meghan is being wooed to jump ship to Hulu, and none other than Kris Jenner is negotiating the deal. Kris and her clan bounced from E! to Hulu a few years back and she has major clout at the streamer. She is instrumental in putting together a deal for Meghan. If all goes according to plan, Meg will be back in front of the camera before the end of the year.
