Travis Kelce's cousin's long-standing Chiefs fandom unveiled
Ashton Corum, identifiable by her TikTok username @carebearlover111, recently took to the platform to address and shut down assumptions about her allegiance to the Kansas City Chiefs. On Wednesday, May 21, Corum posted a TikTok that swiftly went viral, offering compelling evidence of her genuine and long-standing support for the team, stemming from her direct family ties to star player Travis Kelce.
Responding to a hypothetical query that often targets new Chiefs fans, Corum depicted the scenario: "You like them because of Taylor Swift, right?" She then proceeded to dismantle this assumption with a visual narrative. The series of photos began with a casual shot of Corum holding a baby, captioned with the text, "Told him I was a Chiefs fan." This was followed by a picture of her on the beach, furthering the narrative with the overlaid question: "He said: 'oh you like them because of Taylor Swift, right?'"
The definitive proof arrived in the final slide: a touching collage of throwback photographs depicting Corum and Kelce across various stages of their lives.
These images included intimate family gatherings from their younger years and more recent on-field moments, showcasing Kelce in his distinctive red and gold Chiefs uniform. Corum succinctly captioned the post, "Been a fan #cousin," punctuated by two glaring emojis, underscoring her long-standing dedication.
The TikTok's immediate impact was significant, accumulating nearly 300,000 views and approximately 34,000 likes within a single day of its upload.

The prospect of a "Tayvis" wedding also sparked speculative comments, with one user noting, "You're gonna be COUSINS with Taylor Swift," and another musing, "So in theory you will be at the Tayvis wedding and be one of the first and/or ONLY people to see her wedding dress ...
do you understand how blessed you are.'

Happy Gilmore 2 Twitter review: Adam Sandler makes comedic comeback on Netflix, Internet quips: ‘Over delivered'
Happy Gilmore 2, starring Adam Sandler as the eponymous character, is now on streaming on Netflix.

A user wrote, 'Really stupid, full of throwbacks and with a ridiculous amount of cameos. Absolutely perfect sequel.'

The callbacks, the nostalgia, the return of Shooter." A fourth comment read, 'Genuinely funny with a lot of heart. It's not on par with the original but only being a few strokes behind after three decades away is honestly a gigantic win for modern feature length comedies.' A fifth user said, 'They over delivered. Amazing movie, they really paid homage to the franchise and did it right.' A sixth user wrote, 'It's better than the first, but couldn't exist without. They're both going to be timeless, unique, and remembered forever.'

Netizens believed that a photo in the post that read, "Write a great song," could be a hint at a new collaboration. The singer also shared her post on her story with the new BLACKPINK song 'JUMP'.

When the possibility of a collaboration was revealed, some fans expressed disapproval, claiming that the singer wasn't "famous" enough and that they should have a more recognised name, although the extent of the collaboration was not confirmed.
