Taylor Swift masters: Singer owns her music catalog
Taylor Swift announced on Instagram and her website she owns her music catalog.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are in their hockey era.
Kelce, star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, and Swift, a 14-time Grammy winner, traded in a football for a hockey puck on Thursday and traveled to Sunrise, Florida, for Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers.
The duo was spotted walking to their suite at Amerant Bank Arena as nearby fans applauded. Kelce donned a red long-sleeve shirt and matching shorts, which he paired with a baseball cap and pair of white sneakers. Swift opted for an all-white, two-piece getup that she paired with white heeled boots and her signature red lip.
STANLEY CUP FINAL, GAME 4: Live updates, score, highlights
The power couple first broke the internet in September 2023 when Swift accepted Kelce's invitation to watch him play at Arrowhead Stadium after he watched her rock the same stadium during her wildly popular "Eras Tour." She was prominently featured during FOX's game broadcast while sitting next to Kelce's mother Donna in a suite. Swift and Kelce were later spotted leaving together in a convertible after the Chiefs' blowout win over the Chicago Bears, not only fueling dating rumors, but setting the entire internet on fire.
When Swift is not touring the world or cheering on Kelce at Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium, the duo has frequently held date nights at various sporting events. Kelce and Swift attended the 2024 U.S. Open men's final alongside Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and wife Brittany Mahomes. One month later, the couple attended Game 1 of the ALCS between the New York Yankees and Cleveland Guardians. Swift was also at Kelce's side after the Chiefs' Super Bowl 59 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans in February.
Swift previously starred in a commercial for the NHL's Nashville Predators in 2008. "Come on! Taylor Swift at a Predators game? You're crazy," the commercial says. Some find themselves thinking that nearly two decades later.

Megan Thee Stallion takes break from touring hiatus for fiery Summerfest performance
While Megan Thee Stallion is taking a deserved break from touring, the world is being deprived of a hot girl summer at a time when we arguably need one more than ever — well, with one exception. The Grammy-winning rapper, 30, headlined Summerfest in Milwaukee on Saturday, June 28. The special one-off appearance at the American Family Insurance Amphitheater was Megan's first performance since Coachella in April and her only scheduled concert of the summer. So, she really made it count. Coming out on stage surrounded by eight backing dancers, all of them sporting black cowboy hats, boots and skimpy get-ups seemingly on loan from Beyoncé, Stallion raced right into "Ungrateful," which was followed by "Thot (expletive)," "Wanna Be" and "Freak Nasty." Megan Thee Stallion enters the villa: Rapper appears on 'Love Island USA' By the time "Savage" made the Hotties feral, 15 minutes had passed, with barely any moments for Stallion and her hard-working dancers to catch their breath. The superstar impressively stayed in lock step for much of the demanding choreography — hair flips, body squats, arm waves, hip thrusts, butt shakes — and somehow found the breath to rap on top of all of that, delivering withering one-liners and chest-puffing slogans with force and fire, rarely leaning on the prerecorded backing vocals that served as an unnecessary safety net. Then, after perhaps just 60 to 90 seconds offstage, Stallion was back at it again for the hard-rock studded "TYG," a collaboration with Spiritbox, offering up moves that were even more demanding, and impressive, than what she offered for that jaw-dropping opener — including a lightning-fast drop into the splits. One fan tossed a bra onstage in gratitude, leaving Stallion laughing so hard she struggled to get back into the bars. (At that moment, the prerecorded vocals actually did come in handy.) Megan Thee Stallion on Tory Lanez: Rapper calls singer a 'demon,' slams his fans for harassment Just a couple of songs later, Stallion showed she didn't completely need those backing dancers to put on a show. She offered up the Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper (and alleged Nicki Minaj diss track) "Hiss," from her latest album "Megan," without any choreography, letting the bite from her flow steal the show. That same dynamic delivery commanded the stage a few moments later for "Plan B," with three words of advice speaking to Stallion's resonance amid all the bravado and biting put-downs: "Ladies, love yourself." Forty minutes after taking the stage, her body glistening with sweat, Stallion took a much-deserved extended break. But this also turned out to be one of the most fun moments of the show, as Stallion paced around and picked fans to join her onstage, assembling about a dozen mega-Megan fans who got down (literally, for a few of them) and twerked to "Bourbon." After that, Stallion still wasn't done. She then looked out over the pit again and invited about two dozen fans to join her onstage and dance to "Best Friend." And for all of this, Stallion gleefully accepted hugs, posed for selfies, signed autographs and even complimented one fan's cologne while wishing them a happy birthday. But there was more show to do. The set climaxed with one of Stallion's biggest smashes, "Body," her DJ doubling down on the drama by playing the inescapable earworm hook "Body, -ody, -ody, -ody, -ody, -ody, -ody" initially without the beat, ratcheting up the tension until a bass drop offered sweet relief. After a crowd-thrilling "Big Ole Freak" and one more complex choreographed routine for "Mamushi," her collab with Japanese rapper Yuki Chiba, Stallion said so long to a stage for the foreseeable future. The set clocked in at just 75 minutes. 10 bingeable memoirs to check out: Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé Megan's opening act, fellow rapper Flo Milli, canceled just a few hours before showtime due to weather-related travel issues. But thanks to Stallion's unstoppable, sweat-dripping showmanship, this will go down as one of the buzziest shows of Summerfest 2025. Hot girl summer, delivered.

Lorde's racy 'Virgin' vinyl artwork stirs controversy with NSFW image
Lorde is getting intimate in more ways than one on her new album. The Grammy-winning songstress, 28, is stirring up controversy on social media thanks to the artwork from her latest record "Virgin." The 11-track LP, coproduced and cowritten by Lorde (real name: Ella Yelich-O'Connor), marks the alternative pop singer's return to the music scene after 2021's "Solar Power." The vinyl edition of the album features an eight-page photo booklet, according to Lorde's official website. The product description includes the advisory warning, "Adult images." One of the images in question reportedly includes a nude shot of Lorde, with the photo showing the crotch of an individual wearing see-through pants. Lorde's 'Man Of The Year' TikTok trend: Why Gen Z copes with humor A representative for Lorde confirmed to Entertainment Weekly that the singer is the individual featured in the photo. USA TODAY has reached out to representatives of Lorde for comment. The album artwork drew scrutiny online for its racy depiction of the singer, dividing fans who were shocked by Lorde's apparent embrace of nudity and others who were unfazed by the skin-baring photo. "Me when I saw Lorde's vinyl cover on my timeline," X user @leasweetener wrote alongside a clip of Anne Hathaway's "Idea of You" character Solène Marchand slamming a laptop shut in horror. "Just saw that Lorde vinyl cover," @sayfoncaffeine wrote, inserting a GIF of "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" character Rowley Jefferson looking confused. "Should've stayed curious about the Lorde vinyl😭😭," @deluluboy2 wrote alongside a clip of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" alum NeNe Leakes exclaiming, "What?! That is shocking." Despite the musical controversy, some fans came to Lorde's defense. "The Lorde vinyl was not that bad. Y'all love to overreact," X user @serialexpplain wrote. "That Lorde vinyl cover ain't even that serious (for real), and y'all are dragging it," @lele_westwood wrote. "I really thought the Lorde vinyl insert would be a lot worse than people are saying it is," @lqbyrinths wrote. "You guys are kinda dramatic 😭" Lorde is back with 2025 tour: How to get tickets to Ultrasound tour In a May interview with Rolling Stone, Lorde reflected on the "vulnerable" and "messy" nature of "Virgin" and the impact the album could have on her public image. "There's going to be a lot of people who don't think I'm a good girl anymore, a good woman. It's over," Lorde told the outlet. "It will be over for a lot of people, and then for some people, I will have arrived. I'll be where they always hoped I'd be." This isn't the first time Lorde has featured explicit imagery in her work. The album cover for "Solar Power" showed a bikini-clad Lorde "jumping over a friend on a beach," but the ground-level angle gave an unfiltered view of the singer's buttocks. 10 bingeable memoirs to check out: Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé During a June 2021 interview on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," the singer said the image was "a little hardcore, but it was so joyful to me." "It felt innocent and playful and a little bit feral and sexy," Lorde continued. "You've got to do it while you've got it."

Ottawa Senators re-sign veteran forward Claude Giroux to 1-year deal
The Ottawa Senators have signed veteran forward Claude Giroux to a one-year contract extension, the team announced Sunday. The deal comes with a base salary of $2 million but could rise to $4.75 million based on performance bonuses. The 37-year-old Giroux scored 15 goals and added another 35 assists last season, playing a key role on a Sens team that made the NHL playoffs for the first time since 2017. In three seasons with the Senators, Giroux has only missed a single regular season game, the team noted in its announcement. "Claude brings veteran leadership and a competitive edge to our group and has been a consistent presence on and off the ice," said Steve Staios, the Sens' general manager and president of hockey operations, in a statement. "We are excited to bring him back next season." Giroux has tallied 1,116 points over the course of 18 NHL seasons.
