Ben Affleck Reveals How Kids Roasted Him Over Dating History
Ben Affleck’s kids aren’t exactly running to their dad for dating advice.
During a Thursday, September 24, appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, the Animals actor, 54, revealed how his three children with ex-wife Jennifer Garner — Violet, 20, Seraphina, 17, and Samuel, 14 — recently roasted him at the dinner table when he tried to dispense advice on their love lives.
“Now, I, like, give advice or try to talk to them like a parent, as you do … but what I’ve found is that now it’s not only one teenager rolling their eyes,” he said. “I’ll kind of launch into something at the dinner table and now I catch them giving each other looks. And I realize I’m the caricature in this story. I see them be like, ‘Dad is saying this and that…’”
Affleck quipped, “Why am I the bad guy?” admitting that “I couldn’t imagine I wouldn’t be the cool dad.”
“My kids were talking at dinner and they’ll talk about their friends and the drama and their relationships,” he said. “And I have some lived experience, I think, that’s worth sharing… some lessons that I [learned]. These are the kinds of things we give to our children.”
Affleck continued, “I said, ‘You know, well, the thing about that relationship there with that person…’ The 17-year-old just turns to me and goes, ‘Oh, like you’re the expert on relationships.’”
The Oscar winner shared that his middle child also once hit him with a zinger while they were visiting a bookstore.
“We’re just browsing around and there’s some book by a French guy and it’s called I’m Sorry for Everything, and my kid immediately turns to me, deadpan, and goes, ‘Oh, look, Dad, it’s your autobiography,’” he said.
Affleck was married to Garner, also 54, from 2005 to 2018. The couple announced their separation in June 2015 and finalized their divorce three years later.
In 2021, Affleck reignited his romance with Jennifer Lopez, to whom he was previously engaged from 2002 to 2004, and the couple got married in July 2022. Two years later, Us confirmed in August 2024 that Lopez, 57, had filed for divorce. The split was officially finalized in February 2025.
Earlier this year, Garner opened up about her “incredible” coparenting dynamic with her ex.
“My kids are a little bigger 1790348553. Their dad — ex-husband — has become this incredible coparent,” she gushed to Entertainment Weekly in July. “And I have this unbelievable [business] partner who produces with me things that we control and are able to help keep in L.A. … I love making movies anywhere, but I really want to make movies at home.”
“He’s wonderful. He takes care of them. He’s a great partner in that way. And that’s very freeing,” Garner added.

Why Was The Celeb Hairstylist Locked Up?
According to previous coverage from The Shade Room, Jonathan Wright was locked up over a gun charge. Outlets like social media blog Lemon8 further claim that the charge was tied to an incident involving having it at an airport. However, the airport’s location is allegedly in Texas, but the exact facility is unclear. He was reportedly arrested and sentenced to one year in prison in December 2025. In early January, his Instagram account shared a message claiming he was “doing very well” and in “good spirits.” The message also thanked “everyone who sent emails, text messages, calls, prayers and just all love to him.”

On Thursday, as said, Jonathan shared his first feed post since October 2025. He indicated that he served his prison time and is ready to bring his “bigger vision” to life. He also plans to go on tour, though it’s unclear whether it will center on hairstyling or club appearances.
“I DID MY TIME… NOW IT’S MY TIME. 🥶🏆 I’m coming home with a different Mindset, a Bigger Vision & Something to Prove. THE RETURN STARTS NOW. 😈 The MF King Home 🏠🔥FDO. TOUR DATES COMINGGGG…”
The post included photos of Wright sitting inside a black truck with a large, JW diamond pendant and chain around his neck. His hair, formerly in locs, appeared to be in cornrows capped at the back of his neck. Meanwhile, the second photo in his slide showed the celeb hairstylist shirtless and showing off his abs while holding his chain. The other pictures show him posing with loved ones and what look to be gifts for his welcome home. And the very last slide of his IG post shows several folks wearing black hoodies with Jonathan Wright’s mugshot on the back.

Which Widow’s Bay Stars Are, Aren’t Returning for Season 2?
While Widow’s Bay is officially returning, is every cast member coming back in season 2?
The Apple TV series, which premiered in April 2026, is set in a fictional New England island town plagued by a centuries-old curse, bringing various supernatural evils to the local inhabitants.
Shortly after the show aired, Matthew Rhys, Kate O’Flynn, Kevin Carroll, Dale Dickey, Kingston Rumi Southwick, Jeff Hiller, Stephen Root, K Callan and more received critical acclaim for their performances in the supernatural comedy.
Rhys later spoke to Us about the vision for season 2.
“The question I’ve been asking Yana Grebenyuk Katie [Dippold] the most is, ‘What is the curse? The monster? The island? What is it?’” he shared in August 2026. “So I’m so intrigued as to whether it’s something physical and tangible to be reasoned with or something inside us. I have no idea. I just know I’m glad I’m not writing it.”
He continued: “There’s a part of me that wants Hamish Linklater’s character, Richard, to come back. So I kind of want that to be the curse. He keeps knocking on my door and I’m always like, ‘What?’ And he is the curse and always ever present. I think there could be a lot of fun with that.”
Rhys noted he was just as nervous as fans about possible deaths, adding, “[Fans should be] terrified. No one is safe. Anyone can be taken down at a moment’s notice.”
At the time, the actor hinted that nothing was off the table. “The game is wide open for a big shocking death where everyone goes, ‘Oh my God, I didn’t think they would kill off Tom Loftis,’” he teased of his own character. “I have that worry. Present tense.”
Keep scrolling to see who is and isn’t coming back in season 2:

Kate O’Flynn
O’Flynn’s fan-favorite character Patricia will be front and center in season 2.

Ed Sheeran’s Tour Trouble Continues With Double Cancellation
Ed Sheeran’s troubled Loop Tour has suffered another major setback, with both of his scheduled Gillette Stadium concerts canceled because of severe weather. The British singer was expected to perform at Robert Kraft’s Foxborough, Massachusetts, venue on Friday, September 25, and Saturday, September 26. However, stadium and tour officials pulled the plug as dangerous conditions threatened the area. The cancellations arrive during an already turbulent stretch for Sheeran, who has faced intense backlash since Macklemore was dropped from the tour following his pro-Palestine remarks.
Ed Sheeran’s Gillette Stadium Concerts Are Canceled

Gillette Stadium confirmed that Sheeran’s two performances would not move forward after officials monitored the weekend forecast. “Stadium and tour management, along with public safety officials, have been closely monitoring the weather forecast over the past week. Due to the severe weather forecast throughout the weekend, the tour has made the difficult decision to cancel the Ed Sheeran concerts at Gillette Stadium,” Kraft told TMZ in a statement.
“The decision was made with the safety of fans, staff, and everyone involved in the shows as the top priority. Refunds are available now at the point of purchase,” Kraft added. “Ticket holders who purchased through Ticketmaster will be automatically refunded.”
The concerts were part of the North American leg of Sheeran’s Loop Tour. Although the cancellations come in the middle of the controversy surrounding the lineup, officials specifically attributed the decision to the severe weather forecast.
The Foxborough dates were set to bring Sheeran back to the first NFL stadium he ever headlined. He previously performed seven shows at Gillette Stadium between 2013 and 2023.
Ticketmaster Had Already Faced Pressure To Issue Refunds

Some fans were attempting to obtain refunds before the weather cancellation was announced because Macklemore and the tour’s remaining opening acts were no longer scheduled to perform. Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Campbell announced Thursday that Ticketmaster had agreed to provide refunds after her office received nearly 200 complaints from consumers.
“After hearing from nearly 200 consumers who were struggling to obtain refunds from Ticketmaster for Ed Sheeran’s shows at Gillette Stadium this weekend,” Campbell said, “my office jumped into action to demand that consumers be provided a clear path to get their money back if they no longer want to attend due to significant changes to the lineup. I encourage anyone who wants a refund to act quickly and submit their request at least 24 hours before showtime.”
The attorney general’s involvement initially addressed the substantial lineup changes rather than the later weather cancellation. Ticketmaster subsequently committed to honoring qualifying requests submitted before the deadline, according to the Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office.
With both performances now canceled, ticket holders who purchased through Ticketmaster are expected to receive automatic refunds.
Macklemore Blamed Pressure From Robert Kraft

The tour controversy began after Macklemore delivered pro-Palestine messaging while opening for Sheeran at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. Macklemore subsequently claimed that he was removed from the tour after Kraft refused to allow him to perform at Gillette Stadium and encouraged other venue owners to take a similar position. Sheeran, however, maintained that the decision to remove Macklemore was made by tour promoter Messina Touring Group rather than by the singer himself.
The lineup unraveled quickly after Macklemore’s departure. Finneas, Lukas Graham and Aaron Rowe withdrew from their scheduled appearances, while Sheeran’s longtime backing band Beoga also stepped away in solidarity.
Macklemore later announced that he would donate the entire $1 million in net earnings he received from the Loop Tour to six organizations assisting Palestinians. He also publicly challenged Kraft to match the donation.
Kraft responded by claiming that Sheeran had already asked him to match a separate $2 million humanitarian donation. Both men reportedly committed $2 million to regional aid, although specific recipient organizations were not initially identified.
Ed Sheeran Addressed The Backlash Onstage

Sheeran initially explained that he deliberately avoided turning his professional platform into a political forum. “Just because I choose not to speak publicly, it doesn’t mean I don’t have them, and it doesn’t mean I don’t care. Nor does it mean I don’t support causes in my own, personal way,” the singer wrote.
“There is a reason I do not use my professional platform for politics, my audience includes young people, often children, of all backgrounds. Those who come to my shows do not expect a political forum. I respect Macklemore’s strength of purpose to stand up and shout for what he believes,” he continued.
“However, there is room for multiple approaches to the same end: peace. I choose to use my fame and platform to be a place of safety and sanctuary, to maintain diplomacy and keep conversations open, not closed. If we only focus on shouting the loudest, nothing will ever change,” the singer added. “There are different approaches to being an advocate for change.”
The explanation did little to quiet the criticism, and Sheeran revisited the controversy during his September 19 performance at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. “I don’t want to disappoint fans, and I’ve never wanted to be an activist musician, but this has put me in the middle of an important and passionate argument about freedom of speech and the most complex political issue on the planet,” Sheeran said.
He later told the crowd that “this is a humanitarian issue, and I cannot hide how I feel about it anymore. What happened in Israel and at the Nova Music Festival on Oct. 7 was horrific and compounded centuries of Jewish pain. What is happening in Gaza is catastrophic and unjustifiable, and disproportionate. Our hearts can be broken by the scale of devastation and loss of civilians’ lives, children’s lives, and the systemic injustice we’re seeing unfold in the West Bank cannot be overlooked.”
Sheeran also reiterated that Macklemore’s removal was a promoter-led decision and said he had attempted to mediate with the venues.
Macklemore Announces His Own “Free Palestine” Shows

As Sheeran dealt with the fallout, Macklemore announced a series of “Free Palestine” concerts beginning in October. Proceeds from the newly announced performances will benefit organizations providing aid to Palestinians.
“If these last couple of weeks have shown us anything, it’s that something has shifted over the last three years,” Macklemore wrote on Instagram. “There has been a collective awakening around Palestinian liberation, the power of billionaires that try to censor that call, and what we expect from artists right now. When the billionaire class can decide which voices are allowed on stage and which ones are too dangerous to hear, everyone should be paying attention.”

The ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’ Franchise Almost Died Before It Really Got Started
Sonic the Hedgehog seems impossible to kill now. The blue blur has three hit movies behind him, a fourth on the way, and a steady presence across games and animation. For a character celebrating his 35th anniversary, that sounds like business as usual. According to the person responsible for guiding the franchise, it almost wasn’t. Sonic has survived plenty of rough patches, and fans have stuck with him through all of them. That loyalty kept the character recognizable even when Sega’s confidence in the series was wavering. It took an unlikely box office hit to change how the company saw his future.
Sonic Creative Officer Takashi Iizuka says Sega executives once wanted to cancel the entire franchise, and the success of 2020’s Sonic the Hedgehog movie changed its course. Speaking recently during an interview at Tokyo Game Show, Iizuka recalled being told by higher-ups during the series’ worst periods that it should end. He said he fought within Sega to keep Sonic going and called the first movie the biggest milestone in the franchise’s turnaround.
“There had been good times, and there had been bad times,” Iizuka said. “During the worst times, I was told by the higher-ups that we should cancel the entire franchise.” He described the movie as a major hit that “definitely changed the course of this franchise.” Iizuka did not identify when those conversations happened or suggest that cancellation was still imminent when the movie premiered.
The Sonic Movies Gave Sega a Very Different Problem
The first movie’s path to theaters was hardly reassuring at the start. Its initial Sonic design drew such a strong backlash that the character was completely redesigned before release, making the movie look like another potential headache for the franchise. Instead, audiences embraced it, and the movies have since introduced Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow to viewers who may never have picked up one of the games. Iizuka says those newer fans are also changing what people want from Sonic himself. In the same interview, Iizuka said some fans who found Sonic through movies and animation place greater emphasis on story. He wants future games to respond to that interest while keeping video games at the center of the franchise. That gives the movies a role beyond selling tickets: they have helped shape the audience Sonic Team now makes games for.
Sega’s plans today sound far removed from the conversations Iizuka remembers having with executives. He pointed to a new Netflix cartoon, Sonic the Hedgehog 4, and plans to release some form of Sonic media almost every year. The first movie did more than prove Sonic could work on the big screen. For Iizuka, it helped secure the future of a franchise he had already fought to keep alive.

Bre Tiesi On ‘Difficult’ Relationships With Nick Cannon’s Partners
Bre Tiesi is opening up about the complicated reality of being part of Nick Cannon’s unusually large family.
The “Selling Sunset” star shares son Legendary Love with Cannon, who has 12 children with six women.
While Tiesi says she would love for Legendary to have close relationships with all of his siblings, she admits that building connections with some of the other mothers has been far more challenging than she hoped.
Bre Tiesi Confesses That Building Relationships With The Other Moms Got ‘Too Difficult‘
Tiesi is making one thing very clear about life inside Cannon’s sprawling family — she is not trying to become best friends with all of the mothers.
The reality star admitted that when it comes to building relationships with Cannon’s other baby mamas, she is mostly keeping to her own lane.
In an interview, Tiesi explained that there is no real “we” when it comes to balancing the family dynamic. Instead, she said she simply tries to be “nice” while staying aware of the complicated family structure surrounding their children.
“I would love to embrace them more, but the relationships with the mothers are, unfortunately, too difficult to do so. “We’ve attempted,” she told E! News.
However, the TV personality shared that she wants her son to form strong bonds with his other siblings, saying that she believes Cannon has a major role to play to ensure the children have the right environment to bond.
Bre Tiesi Is Not Nick Cannon’s Favorite Baby Mama

Before the “Selling Sunset” star shared the strain in her relationship with Cannon’s five other baby mamas, rumors had been spreading about the TV mogul having a favorite partner in his large circle.
Addressing claims that Tiesi holds the top spot, the TV star acknowledged that while he is frequently seen in public and online with the reality star, it’s mainly because of the nature of her job.
As reported by The Blast, Cannon explained that the traditional idea of a soulmate being a “one and only” did not fit his life.
While Tiesi may have been more visible because of her own public profile, Cannon said that visibility should not be mistaken for having a special rank within his unusual family circle.
Bre Tiesi Says Her Relationship With Cannon Is One of Her “Healthiest”
Despite the unconventional nature of their bond, Tiesi has made it clear that she never felt the need to defend things with Cannon.
Explaining how the arrangement works for her, Tiesi once called her relationship with Cannon the “healthiest she’s ever had,” per The Blast.
At the time, she said they did not fight, argue, or deal with toxicity. The social media personality also praised him as a present father to their son, Legendary Love.
Tiesi made it clear she never wanted a conventional relationship. Instead, she embraced the freedom to create an arrangement that worked for them, which seemed to be a major part of why she had been so comfortable with their unusual dynamic.
Nick Cannon Avoids Unnecessary Drama, Spends Mother’s Day With His Mom

Nick has kept certain family moments separate from the chaos surrounding his unconventional setup.
On Mother’s Day, he chose to spend the occasion with his own mother, Beth Gardner, rather than his children’s moms. The Blast reported that Cannon joked, “It’s Mother’s Day. It’s not Baby Mama’s Day!”
Still, he made sure the other mothers were celebrated, helping his children pick out custom gifts for each of them.
Nick Cannon Set To Share Details About The Dynamics Between Him And His Kids

Amid navigating life with six baby mothers and 11 children, Cannon is about to give the public a much closer look at the family life that has kept him in the headlines for years.
According to The Blast, the entertainer is now preparing to put those dynamics directly on camera through a reality show.
Netflix’s synopsis promises a more intimate look at Cannon’s world, described as “heartfelt, complicated” and “chaotic.”
The series is expected to premiere in winter 2026, and may offer a more intimate look into how all of those relationships and responsibilities operate behind the scenes.

Us has affiliate partnerships. We receive compensation when you click on a link and make a purchase. Learn more!
Take a peek inside the closet of a stylish celebrity or fashion editor, and you’re bound to find at least one piece from Reformation. The label is well known for its timeless staples and trendy must-haves, and fall 2026’s offerings are no exception. Cozy sweaters, casual-classy tops, accessories and more have made their way onto our fashion wish list. The only problem? The prices are a bit beyond our budget — so we’re turning to Amazon for seasonal styles inspired by Reformation instead.
Amazon is actually a treasure trove of Reformation lookalikes, packed with everyday essentials and event-worthy looks you’d swear were the real deal. The best part? Our favorite affordable alternatives cost less than $55, so fashionistas can achieve that cool-girl fall look without splurging.
Amazon Fall Pieces That Look Very ‘Reformation’
1. Our Favorite: Reformation knows florals aren’t just for spring. This printed long-sleeved mini dress looks nearly identical to some of the brand’s fall designs, and at $36, it gives you plenty of bang for your buck. Rock it with heels for weddings, then dress it down with leather boots for a cute everyday look.
2. Seasonal Staple: Can you believe this super soft, luxe-looking cardigan is only $16? The price tag is shocking, especially since it’s similar to options that cost close to $200.
3. Easy Elegance: If you’re tired of reaching for the same ol’ tees and turtlenecks each year, spice things up with a lacy button-down top. It’ll liven up jeans, trousers and skirts, and — even better — it doesn’t wrinkle!
4. Not-So-Basic Bottoms: Shorts are no longer just for summer. Reformation has hopped on the Bermuda-style bandwagon, and we’re willing to give the trend a try. Snag this $32 pair and wear it with knee-high boots for a warm yet fashion-forward fall look.
5. Fancy Pants: Prefer easy bottoms that are a tad dressier than your go-to sweats? Pull-on satin-like pants will transform your outfit into something that’s ready for the runway — even if you just pair ’em with an oversized tee.
6. Cute Boots: Stars like Taylor Swift are fans of Reformation’s heeled boots, and Coutgo’s pointed-toe kitten heel style gets you the look for way less. Black is always classic but khaki will ensure you stand out in a crowd.
7. Quirky Crewneck: If you love reaching for a sweatshirt on chilly days, add this silly ‘sports’ pick to your collection. It’s similar to Reformation’s iconic ‘college’ pullover but way less pricey.
8. Pretty Purse: Red is the color of the season, and we’re ready to replace our black purses with something fun and fiery. This vegan leather shoulder bag adds a stylish twist to simple outfits, and it won’t cost you more than $18.
9. Leather Layer: No fall wardrobe is complete without a leather jacket, but it’s time to trade in that motorcycle version for something more modern. The slightly faded look and cool collar make it feel like something you’d spot on Hailey Bieber. Plus, the oversized fit keeps it roomy enough to slip over sweaters.
10. Zip It: One trick to looking put together in a flash? A chunky zip-up cardigan. The ’90s staple has made a triumphant return, keeping your regular rotation of jeans and sweats looking more luxe than lazy.
11. Sleek Skirt: Satin skirts aren’t just for summer — at Reformation, they’re a year-round staple. Add this gorgeous green version to your rotation, layering it under knits and styling it with tights as we head into cooler weather.
12. Trendy Top: If you’re no longer sure which tops work with jeans, here’s the answer. This printed peplum expertly cinches the waist, covers the arms and nails that happy medium between casual and classy.
13. Secretly Versatile: Sure, this long black dress would fit right in at a formal event, but throw on some sneakers and a trench, and you’ve got yourself a chic everyday outfit. The ruching detail adds some interest, but more than that, it sneakily disguises your midsection, so you can skip the shapewear.

Born Again’ Star Officially Reacts to Shock Disney+ Cancellation
Marvel’s Daredevil hasn’t had the smoothest television journey, having faced multiple setbacks and cancellations. The superhero’s first series premiered on Netflix in 2015 but was cancelled in 2018 after just three seasons. Four years later, Disney+ revived the series with Daredevil: Born Again, ordering an 18-episode season with Matt Corman and Chris Ord as head writers. Unfortunately, the revival will end next year, as it was announced three days ago that Season 3 would be its last.
As a reboot of Netflix’s Daredevil series, Daredevil: Born Again sees Charlie Cox reprising his role as blind attorney Matt Murdock, a.k.a. the titular superhero. In addition to Cox, returning cast members include Vincent D’Onofrio as the crime lord Wilson Fisk, otherwise known as Kingpin; Deborah Ann Woll as former reporter and Murdock’s friend Karen Page; and Elden Henson as Foggy Nelson, who was killed off in the series premiere. Meanwhile, Krysten Ritter joined the cast in Season 2, reprising her Marvel TV role of Jessica Jones.
Following the cancellation of Daredevil: Born Again, fans have been outspoken about how unfair it is. Still, some were unsurprised, given that Disney+ has scrapped several high-profile shows in recent weeks, most notably Wonder Man. Meanwhile, Born Again star D’Onofrio has responded to the cancellation by reassuring fans, whom he appreciates for supporting the show throughout its run. Taking to Twitter (formerly X), he wrote:
“We so enjoyed bringing @Daredevil Born Again to you all. You stuck with us and I like to think we stuck with you. We have the final Season, Season 3 heading your way next year with some very cool stuff. Much love to all who have been supportive. I love that character Fisk. Always will. Off to another neck of the woods. Meanwhile… Season 3 is coming!”
‘Daredevil’s Era Has Officially Come to an End
Besides its cancellation, Daredevil: Born Again has quietly parted ways with co-creator and showrunner Dario Scardapane, whose contract expired and was not renewed. The exit is unexpected, coming amid post-production, with no replacement announced as of this publication. The situation is one of several issues the acclaimed crime drama has faced since it was greenlit. Before its 2025 premiere, the 2023 strikes halted production, prompting Marvel to undertake a creative reset. Corman and Ord, who had pursued a more episodic structure and a less dark tone than the Netflix series, were let go. Scardapane, who was also a writer and executive producer on Marvel’s Punisher series at Netflix, then came aboard as showrunner. The initial 18-episode order was also split into two seasons, ultimately becoming 17 episodes: nine for Season 1 and eight for Season 2.
Daredevil coming to an end aligns with Collider’s recent report that Marvel may indeed be winding down its television division. Collider’s Adam Blevins reported, “Collider has learned that, after VisionQuest, Marvel Studios will be cutting back on live-action Disney+ shows. This excludes returning series like Daredevil: Born Again, an existing series with another season that has already wrapped filming, as well as potential miniseries that may be developed under the “Marvel Presents” and “Marvel Spotlight” banners.”
Daredevil: Born Again Season 3 premieres in March 2027. Stick with Collider for an exact premiere date.

Taylor Swift Fans Lose It Over ‘Dirty’ And ‘Freaky’ Travis Kelce Lyric
Taylor Swift has given fans four more songs to analyze, but one particularly suggestive lyric is already dominating the conversation. The 36-year-old superstar released “The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore,” an expanded edition of her hit album featuring the new tracks “Patient Zero,” “Pink Clouding,” “Babylon,” and “Cleveland!” While each addition offers Swifties fresh material to dissect, “Cleveland!” has attracted attention for what listeners believe is a very personal reference to Swift’s husband, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
Taylor Swift’s ‘Cleveland!’ Lyric Sends Fans Into A Frenzy

Swift turns up the heat on “Cleveland!” with the lyric, “The taste of me is acquired, but it’s his favorite dish.” Fans wasted no time sharing their reactions on X, where the line quickly sparked a flurry of enthusiastic and NSFW interpretations.
“THE TASTE OF ME IS ACQUIRED BUT IT’S HIS FAVORITE DISH????????????? OHHH TAYLOR I LOVE IT WHEN YOUR’E DIRTY,” one listener wrote.
Another fan shared, “The taste of me is acquired, but it’s his favorite dish oh they’re FREAKYYYYYYYYYY,”
The lyric does not explicitly identify Kelce, but the song’s title appears to point directly toward the NFL star’s roots. Kelce was born in Westlake, Ohio, and grew up in Cleveland Heights with his older brother, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce.
Swift has also been supporting her husband while the NFL season is in full swing, giving fans even more reason to connect the track to their relationship.
‘Cleveland!’ Is Not Swift’s First Suggestive Kelce Song
Swift has never been afraid to weave intimate details into her songwriting, and “Cleveland!” is not the first track that listeners have interpreted as a suggestive nod to Kelce. Her original “The Life of a Showgirl” album included “Wood,” another song that generated attention for its provocative lyrics. On that track, Swift sings, “Redwood tree, it ain’t hard to see/His love was the key that opened my thighs.”
With “Cleveland!,” the singer appears to be revisiting that playful and sensual energy. However, Swift has not publicly confirmed the exact inspiration behind the song or the lyric.
‘The Encore’ Was Born During A Celebration In Sweden

Swift announced the expanded album on Wednesday, revealing that the four additional songs emerged during what was originally supposed to be a celebration with collaborators Max Martin and Shellback.
“About a year ago, you guys did a truly unfathomable thing,” Swift wrote on Instagram. “Something that completely blew my mind… You gave ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ the biggest first week for an album in history.”
According to Swift, she traveled to Sweden “to celebrate with Max and Shellback, my two collaborators on this album.” Their time together soon became another creative session rather than simply an opportunity to recognize the album’s success.
Swift explained that “we did what we do when we feel anything at all: We wrote more songs. I hope you love them, because they were born out of pure gratitude for your exuberance for and celebration of the album we made.”
Dakota Johnson Joins Swift For ‘Patient Zero’

“Cleveland!” may be commanding attention for its Kelce connection, but “Patient Zero” is getting a major Hollywood rollout of its own. Swift announced the new single on Tuesday, and its forthcoming music video features Dakota Johnson and Colin Farrell. A first look at the visual was shared Thursday on “CBS Mornings.”
Johnson later discussed working with Swift during an interview with Fan Girl Nation, revealing that their personal friendship helped make the collaboration possible. “Taylor and I have been friends for a really long time, and we’re very close, and we decided to work together,” the “Fifty Shades of Grey” actress said. “And it’s great.”
Johnson acknowledged that mixing friendship and work can sometimes be complicated, but said that was not the case with Swift. “Normally, I would say don’t work with your friends, but we work really well together.”
Details about Farrell’s role in the video have not been revealed, leaving viewers with another mystery to unpack when the full project arrives.
Taylor Swift Is Adding Another Award To Her Collection

The “Patient Zero” video is expected to debut at the MTV Video Music Awards, where Swift will also receive the inaugural Artist-Director Award. The recognition highlights her growing role behind the camera. Swift has increasingly directed her own music videos while maintaining creative control over the visual worlds accompanying her albums.
“The Encore” continues an already busy musical period for Swift. In June, she released “I Knew It, I Knew You” for the “Toy Story 5” soundtrack before returning to “The Life of a Showgirl” with its expanded edition.
With four new songs, a star-studded music video, and a new directing honor on the way, Swift is giving fans plenty to discuss.
