Sports Podcaster Nick Wright had said Travis Kelce would not have wanted the last football game he ever played to be the saddest moment of his career
American Sports Television Personality Nick Wright's belief in Travis Kelce's return certainly paid off. Wright had shared in the First Things First podcast back in February 2025, 'I think Travis had a script in his head, 'We're going to win this Super Bowl, and I'm gonna be done.' And now, I think Travis is gonna feel, 'Man, the last football game I ever play is gonna be the saddest moment of my career?'
I don't think he's washed. I don't think he should retire. I think he should do whatever the hell he wants, and if that means he figures it out in August, I think we can make it work.'
Gladly, the NFL superstar figured it out two months earlier than August 2025! He's back to the gridiron. He's back to bringing a fourth Super Bowl title home.

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Kelce talked candidly about his insecurities, especially with regard to reading, and the unforeseen difficulties of dating someone as well-known as . The host of Saturday Night Live in March 2023, Kelce, acknowledged that he struggled with the infamously difficult table reads of the live sketch show. He remarked, "The table reading, for a guy that can't really read that well, it was kind of a f*ked situation." During his appearance on the Bussin' With the Boys podcast yesterday, he said, "I felt like I was just trying to get through the reading, instead of actually acting it out and giving it a voice and giving it a character and things like that. " He went on to say that he was completely focused on simply getting the words right, while others were probably attempting to channel characters and comedic timing. 'Like, I was just focused on, 'Don't f*king skip this line,' you know what I mean? I'm more of an audio guy.' Still, despite the struggle, Kelce made it clear he approached the gig with dedication. 'I want to make them respect my approach and how I'm, like, taking it serious. " He said, "I didn't want to look like a loser'. Handling fame alongside Taylor Swift The podcast discussed his relationship with Taylor Swift, whom he has been dating since 2023, in addition to his professional struggles. The tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs admitted that he hadn't completely expected dating the world-renowned athlete to be like living in the spotlight. In reference to the ongoing paparazzi presence, he remarked, "That's probably the only thing I didn't really grasp until you're in it. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now That's probably the craziest thing.' "He laughed as he gave an example, describing an unexpected incident that happened on the golf course. 'Like, I'm just playing golf, and all of a sudden in the trees there's just a f*king guy with a camera. Like, ah, s—t. I gotta go to the restroom now. I can't just go over here and take a piss.' "Just don't want my meat on Page Six, know what I mean?" he said as he concluded. Both fans and the media have been very critical of the couple, with some claiming that their public appearances are an attempt to gain attention. However, Kelce denied those allegations. 'We're having fun with it, being a couple. … We're just enjoying life and having fun.'

Scarlett Johansson Called Steven Spielberg To Cast Her In Jurassic World Rebirth: 'Will Crush This'
Scarlett Johansson agreed to sign Jurassic World: Rebirth despite not knowing the script. Scarlett Johansson is gearing up for the release of Jurassic World: Rebirth. Scarlett plays Zora Bennett in the film, a skilled covert operative who leads a team on a top-secret mission to secure genetic material from the world's three largest dinosaurs. Ahead of the film's release, Scarlett Johansson exclusively told News18 Showsha that she agreed to sign the film despite not knowing the script. Scarlett Johansson revealed that she called Steven Spielberg, director of Jurassic Park and The Lost World: Jurassic Park, and told him that she would be the right fit for the role. Scarlett said, 'I told him it was my childhood dream. I said, 'I will crush this for you. I don't know what's available, I don't know what the story is, I just know David Koepp wrote it, and I'm all in.'" Previously, Jonathan Bailey, who plays palaeontologist Dr Henry Loomis in the film, also echoed similar sentiments. The actor told us that the film struck a deep chord with him, even as a child. He said, 'I remember it was kind of spiritual, not only because of the vision and the fantasy, but because it spoke to something about the modern world's relationship to the past and nature. The characters were so vivid and playful, the writing was so taut, and because it was Spielberg, it was a sumptuous escapist delight… to play Henry, who embodies the love of nature and our best curiosities about it, was great fun. David Koepp's script was exciting and so fascinating in its ideas." About Jurassic World: Rebirth Jurassic World: Rebirth will be released worldwide on July 4, 2025. Directed by Emmy Award-winning director Gareth Edwards, the film promises to immerse audiences in a thrilling new era. Leading the stellar cast is Academy Award nominee Scarlett Johansson, joined by Emmy Award nominee Jonathan Bailey and Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali. Following Jurassic World Dominion, the story shifts to an isolated equatorial region where surviving dinosaurs have found a familiar, thriving habitat. Now, the fate of humankind may rest on the three most immense among them, who hold the secret to a miraculous, life-altering drug. First Published:

Scarlett Johansson Says 'Years Of Weapons Training' Helped In Jurassic World Rebirth
Scarlett Johansson reflected on the years of military training she has received and how it has almost become a job requirement for her. Scarlett Johansson has established herself as a bankable action star in Hollywood. In her latest film, Jurassic World: Rebirth, she plays Zora Bennett, a skilled covert operative who leads a team on a top-secret mission to secure genetic material from the world's three largest dinosaurs. Even though Johansson brought two decades of action hero training to the movie, she had to learn a new skill to play Zora- abseiling, also known as rappelling. However, her years of training helped her with her role. In an exclusive chat with News18 Showsha, Scarlett Johansson tells us, 'I've had so much weapons training and military training over the years. I never thought that as a young actor, I would ever say that it would be a requirement of my job, but that stuff comes in handy. You have a shorthand with a lot of choreography and weapons." Johansson worked closely with her stunt double, Mickey Facchinello, and the film's stunt team on the design and execution of the film's ample action sequences. 'Mickey, whom I worked with on Black Widow, knows my body and performance very well," Johansson says and adds, 'That's all so helpful, because I can make my prep time more about getting physically fit and working on the internal life of the character." About Jurassic World: Rebirth Jurassic World: Rebirth will be released worldwide on July 4, 2025.

Now, the fate of humankind may rest on the three most immense among them, who hold the secret to a miraculous, life-altering drug. Jurassic World: Rebirth Review News18 Showsha gave the film 3/5 stars. Our review read, 'While technically a standalone sequel to Jurassic World Dominion, it discards much of the convoluted lore and genetic conspiracy clutter that bogged down its predecessors, opting instead for a simpler, sleeker narrative structure reminiscent of the original Jurassic Park. This back-to-basics approach largely works in its favour, even if the film never quite roars with the same ferocity or inventiveness that launched the franchise into the pop-culture phenomenon." ' Scarlett Johansson throws herself into Zora with gusto, climbing cliffs, outwitting mutant dinos and scaling tunnel systems like it's second nature… What Rebirth does right is remind audiences why we loved dinosaurs in the first place. There's a sincerity in its spectacle, an acknowledgement that the franchise thrives not in convoluted plotting but in awe, fear and survival instincts. Bailey, Ali and Johansson do their best to lend emotional weight to a fairly straightforward story, and Edwards keeps things moving, even when the script sags in its middle act," the review also mentioned.
