Theory: Taylor Swift's Secret Cameo In Happy Gilmore 2
These cameos range from Eminem to Haley Joel Osment, and even Adam Sandler's wife, Jackie Sandler, puts in a guest appearance.
But for Taylor Swift fans, there is one specific Happy Gilmore 2 cameo that they are most invested in, and that is her boyfriend Travis Kelce's brief but incredibly memorable role as 'The Waiter,' who faces the wrath of Bad Bunny's character, Oscar, after he fires him over a minor slip-up.
This leads to Oscar fantasizing about getting his revenge, and in a dreamlike sequence, Travis is tied to a post, shirtless, and then slathered with honey before a bear approaches and attacks him.
Earlier this week, Netflix posted a short behind-the-scenes video that showed this sequence being filmed, and off the back of it, some Swifties have become convinced that Taylor also had a top-secret role in the movie as… The bear who attacks Travis.
For reference, Taylor does have previous when it comes to dressing up as a bear:
And when she promoted Happy Gilmore 2 on her Instagram story amid its release, she included a telltale honeypot emoji:
Netflix themselves added fuel to the fire when they replied to an Instagram comment that read: 'They should've dressed Taylor as a bear for an epic surprise' with '👀.'
Somebody else commented on the post: 'From the moment I saw it, I knew Tay was the bear 😉,' and another echoed: 'You just know Taylor is the bear.''Taylor is definitely in the suit,' one more added, and everyone was saying the same thing over on TikTok, too.'Was Taylor the bear 😭' one person asked, and even the official Betty Crocker TikTok page got involved as they commented: 'Is Taylor the bear??? 🍯'And another insisted: 'Everybody knows it was Taylor the bear.'
Despite the Swifties' confidence, Adam did previously say that he didn't ask Taylor to cameo in the film, telling Extra: "We didn't want to bother Taylor. Just let Taylor entertain the world like she does.'
And it's also worth noting that stunt actor Brandon Alan Smith is credited as 'Bear Performer' on Happy Gilmore 2's IMDB page… But hey, maybe that's just what they want us to believe...

Comedian Andrew Schulz rips Trump for IVF campaign pledge ‘flip-flop'
Comedian Andrew Schulz slammed President Donald Trump for not following through on his campaign pledge to provide universal coverage for IVF fertility treatments in a social media post on Sunday. In his Instagram stories, Schulz reposted a Washington Post report headlined, 'Trump promised to mandate IVF care. The White House says there's no plans to do so.' Alongside the headline, Schulz wrote, 'You don't break your word. Your word breaks you.' The comedian and podcaster famously interviewed Trump and voted for him in the November election, but has been increasingly critical in recent weeks over what he perceives as broken promises from the president. In his social media post, he blasted Trump for flip-flopping 'once again' and directed his followers to a charity that helps pay for IVF services. 'For anyone that is looking for financial assistance with IVF (especially now that @realdonaldtrump flip-flopped once again on a campaign promise), please look into @babyquestgrants. It's a wonderful charity that we are working with that specifically provides financial aid for fertility treatments,' Schulz's post read. Roughly one year ago, Trump pledged that he would mandate free in vitro fertilization treatment for women if he won a second term. 4 Comedian Andrew Schulz slammed Donald Trump for not following through on his campaign pledge to provide universal coverage for IVF fertility treatments in a social media post. Getty Images for Netflix 'I'm announcing today in a major statement that under the Trump administration, your government will pay for — or your insurance company will be mandated to pay for — all costs associated with IVF treatment,' Trump told supporters during a campaign rally in Michigan last August. 'Because we want more babies, to put it nicely.' In February, Trump signed an executive order expanding access to IVF and other fertility treatments through the reduction of out-of-pocket costs. The order directed the Domestic Policy Council to find ways to make IVF and other fertility treatments more affordable. 4 Roughly one year ago, Trump pledged that he would mandate free in vitro fertilization treatment for women if he won a second term.

Suzi Media – The White House did not respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. However, White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told the Washington Post in response to its report that the president's work to expand IVF access was ongoing. 'President Trump pledged to expand access to fertility treatments for Americans who are struggling to start families,' Jackson said in a statement. 'The Administration is committed like none before to using its authorities to deliver on this pledge.' This is not the first time Schulz has taken aim at Trump. On a July 10 episode of his 'Flagrant' podcast, Schulz complained about Trump, 'Everything he campaigned on, I believe he wanted to do, and now he's doing the exact opposite thing of every single f—ing thing.' 4 In his social media post, he blasted Trump for flip-flopping 'once again' and directed his followers to a charity that helps pay for IVF services. Xavier Collin/Image Press Agency / Schulz specifically called out the president over increasing the national debt, funding foreign wars, and the recent announcement that there was no Jeffrey Epstein 'client list.' 'There'll be people, they'll DM and say, 'You see what your boy's doing? You voted for this.' I'm like, 'I voted for none of this!' He's doing the exact opposite of everything I've voted for!' he said at the time.

Jake Gyllenhaal has sold his home in a star-studded NYC building for $14M in an off-market deal
Call it his next chapter. Jake Gyllenhaal, the Oscar-nominated actor who keeps surprising audiences with his range and depth of characters, has just sold his Tribeca home in a former book-binding factory for $14 million, according to city records. The off-market sale at 443 Greenwich St. was first reported by the Real Deal. Gyllenhaal recently portrayed Iago in a buzzy and extra-expensive 'Othello' on Broadway with Denzel Washington that priced out many theater lovers. 4 Jake Gyllenhaal is one of many A-listers who have called 443 Greenwich home. WireImage 4 The condo was crafted from a former book-binding factory — and quickly became home to celebs. Jack Berman The former factory, built in 1882, has been home over the years to a galaxy of stars. Past and present residents include Jennifer Lawrence, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, Harry Styles, Mike Myers and Meg Ryan. Renters in the building have included The Weeknd and his then-girlfriend, Bella Hadid. The edifice is presently home to Microsoft heiress Jennifer Gates, daughter of the billionaire Bill Gates and his ex-wife, Melinda Gates, as Gimme Shelter exclusively reported. Gates bought the penthouse for $51 million from Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton in 2023. Gyllenhaal's 2,868-square-foot, fifth-floor home opens with a large entry foyer and features three bedrooms, three baths and a chef's kitchen. He bought the unit for $8.6 million in 2017. Another apartment on the same floor is the only one currently on the market and in contract. It was last asking $13.3 million, according to StreetEasy. 4 The homes kept original building details, such as wooden beams, as seen in this rendering from its original marketing. HayesDavidson 4 The amenities on offer resemble those of a luxury resort. HayesDavidson The building's 53 units feature entry foyers with custom metal wall panels and 8-inch-wide white oak floors. Original details include Carolina yellow pine beams paired with mahogany windows, and antique bronze doors. The sale comes as the building's condo board is suing the developer, Nate Berman's Metro Loft and the architect, CetraRuddy, for $376 million, alleging breach of contract, alleged construction defects and code violations. Metro Loft and CetraRuddy have denied the allegations made in court filings. The case, filed in 2021, is ongoing.
