Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Living 'Pretty Woman' Movie In Reverse, Jokes Brother Jason of Hollywood Remake
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Living 'Pretty Woman' Movie In Reverse, Jokes Brother Jason of Hollywood Remake originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce have seen their "New Heights" podcast skyrocket in popularity over the past year or so. With the brothers doing great in the podcast space, a couple of weeks ago, the thought of reviewing the movie "Pretty Woman" came up, and nothing really came of it... until now. On the latest episode of "New Heights," Travis and Jason Kelce were talking about the movie, when Travis stated that a "Pretty Man" movie has to come out. "I think we need to make 'Pretty Man'," Travis said. "We need to have a CEO billionaire woman be so high-class that she doesn't know where she's going, she doesn't know how to drive a car." That sounds like a good movie idea from the future Hall of Famer, but as Travis Kelce was finishing up his thought, Jason Kelce gave his thoughts and stated something rather funny. "Travis, you're living Pretty Man right now," Jason Kelce said. The pair then burst into laughter, with Jason Kelce seemingly taking a light-hearted shot at Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's relationship, with his brother being the "Pretty Man" in that dynamic. As the Chiefs have begun their training camp, we imagine that Travis Kelce and his new nickname of "Pretty Man" will certainly get mentioned around the locker room as the tight end seems to fit the bill to a tee. Of course, we don't know if a movie like that would ever get made, but if it does, we could think of worse people to headline it than Travis Kelce. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 24, 2025, where it first appeared. Solve the daily Crossword

WWE unveils tribute to Hulk Hogan at SmackDown after his death at 71
The WWE paid tribute to the late Hulk Hogan ahead of SmackDown Friday night to commemorate the wrestling legend after his death Thursday at the age of 71. The tribute included clips of Hogan's decorated wrestling career and his entertainment ventures outside the ring. Narrator Triple-H called Hogan "the ultimate hero" and revealed he died in his home surrounded by family. The SmackDown crowd erupted in applause and a chant of "Hogan! Hogan!" after the video concluded. Hogan reportedly had a health crisis weeks before his death, though his wife, Sky, denied the reports. She said her husband was "strong" and recovering from surgeries. The superstar pro wrestler, whose birth name was Terry Bollea, got his start in Championship Wrestling from Florida (CWF) in the late 1970s before he eventually joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) in 1979. However, it wasn't until his return to the WWF, now the WWE, when he became the superstar that fans came to know. Vince McMahon bought the WWF from his father and chose Hogan to be the main attraction for the company. He started to wrestle when he saved Bob Backlund from an attack by the Wild Samoans. "Hulkamania" became the rage from there. Hogan was a six-time WWE champion, won the Royal Rumble twice and was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame as an individual in 2005 and as a member of the NWO in 2020. He was also a six-time world heavyweight champion in WCW and the IWGP champion in New Japan Pro-Wrestling once. President Donald Trump joined the masses in mourning the loss of the WWE legend. Trump, who had a strong relationship with Hogan for years, which included the wrestling great speaking at the Republican National Convention last year, wrote a tribute on Truth Social to the "Hulkster." "We lost a great friend today, the "Hulkster." Hulk Hogan was MAGA all the way — Strong, tough, smart, but with the biggest heart," Trump wrote. "He gave an absolutely electric speech at the Republican National Convention, that was one of the highlights of the entire week. He entertained fans from all over the World, and the cultural impact he had was massive. "To his wife, Sky, and family, we give our warmest best wishes and love. Hulk Hogan will be greatly missed!" In July 2024, Hogan endorsed Trump for president at the RNC, where he said "Let Trump-a-mania make America great again," an ode to his Hulkamania moniker.

Scooter Braun addresses if Taylor Swift's revenge track 'Vigilante S---' is about him and his ex
Scooter Braun has seen the theories that Taylor Swift's Midnights revenge track "Vigilante S---" is about him. So is he shaking it off? When asked point-blank if the song's lyrics were about him and his ex-wife, Yael Cohen, Braun had an answer ready. "No, because I talk to Yael every day," Braun said on a new episode of the Question Everything podcast. "My ex-wife is one of my best friends, so me and my ex-wife laugh about that stuff. We don't even call each other 'ex.' That's, like, my partner. That's the mother of my children." In the track, which was released in October 2022, Swift sings, "She needed cold hard proof, so I gave her some / She had the envelope, where you think she got it from? / Now she gets the house, gets the kids, gets the pride / Picture me thick as thieves with your ex-wife / And she looks so pretty, driving in your Benz / Lately she's been dressing for revenge." Braun and Cohen, who share three children, separated in July 2021 and finalized their divorce in September 2022. Given the timing — and all of the previous drama between Swift and Braun over the ownership of Swift's masters that dominated headlines in 2019 — fans did what they do best and speculated that "Vigilante S---" must be about Braun. Swifties also hypothesized that another Midnights track, "Karma," referenced him. The singer has never confirmed whom either song is about, if anyone real. Later on the podcast, Braun insisted that he and Cohen are "family for life." "I have a tattoo on my finger that says 'same team' after my divorce because she and I are on the same team for life," he said. "That's what we say to each other. So no, I never thought that ["Vigilante S---"] was about us. She never thought it was about us, and everyone else kind of feeding into the fire — great strategy move, but, like, nah." After 23 years in the business, Braun announced he was retiring from music management in June 2024. At the time, the entrepreneur and record executive said he was stepping back to focus on his position as CEO of HYBE America and on his family. The news came after he unofficially stepped back the previous year from managing top artists such as Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, both of whom helped kick-start his career in the late 2000s. As for Swift, the saga over the ownership of the masters of her music reached a stunning conclusion in May, when the Tortured Poets Department singer revealed that she had bought back her first six albums. Posting a photo of herself surrounded by the vinyl editions of the records, she wrote, "You belong with me." She then published a lengthy letter on her official website in which she stated, "All the music I've ever me." A representative for Braun sent a statement from him to Entertainment Weekly at the time. It read: "I am happy for her." Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly
