Taylor Swift Gushed Over Kelce After Super Bowl ... 'You Are So Magical!!!'
Taylor Swift absolutely gushed over Travis Kelce down on the field after the Super Bowl on Sunday ... at one point telling him, "You are so magical!!"
The adorable comment was picked up on a hot mic as the two embraced at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas following the Chiefs' 25-22 win over the 49ers.
Swift also could be heard in the audio -- which was just released by the NFL -- telling Kelce, "I've never been so proud in my life."
"I can't believe you," she added. "How did you do that? How did you do it?"
Kelce then returned the compliments Swift's way ... praising her for somehow appearing totally normal despite taking a lengthy flight from Tokyo to Los Angeles in order to make it to the Big Game.
"How do you not have jet lag right now?" he said ... before she responded, "Jet lag is a choice."
The two, of course, then partied the night away ... hitting multiple clubs in Vegas throughout the night.
In fact, they were seen nuzzling up against each other so tightly at one of the postgame events ... Travis' big bro, Jason Kelce, called them "two people in love."
Swift is now in Australia gearing up for her next batch of "Eras" tour shows ... but something tells us Kelce won't be too far behind.

Bill Skarsgård was arrested in Sweden for marijuana possession ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell us ... the 33-year-old actor was arrested in October for possessing 2.43 grams of cannabis at Arlanda Airport in Stockholm and was sentenced Wednesday.
We're told Bill was ordered to pay a fine of 40,000 Swedish krona -- approximately $3,825 USD and will not face jail time, probation or parole -- meaning it’ll all be behind him once he forks over the cash.
We’re told Skarsgård pled guilty to the crime and submitted paperwork to the court … and a judge sentenced BS based on that paperwork.
Bill -- who's starred in Stephen King's "It" and "Atomic Blonde" along with other well-known movies and TV shows -- is acting royalty in Sweden with his father Stellan and brothers Alexander, Gustaf, Valter, Ossian and Kolbjörn also members of the trade.
We've reached out to Bill for comment ... so far no word back.

RIHANNA, A$AP ROCKY Trolled by Parisian Paps ... Baiser, Baiser on Valentine's Day!!!
It was just Rihanna and A$AP Rocky on Valentine's Day ... plus, of course, a whole bunch of paps who trolled the hell out of the couple as they tried having some alone time.
Check out this hysterical video ... the couple shares several cozy hugs while blissfully unaware they're being watched inside the swanky César restaurant Wednesday in Paris -- all against the backdrop of hilarious French commentary by the photogs.
Now, we're not exactly fluent in French over here ... but by their tone, it definitely looks like they're poking fun at them for a while before A$AP realizes quite the crowd has gathered behind him.
Safe to say, with the glass window between them, he probably didn't realize they were being mocked ... choosing to wave and smile at the paps, so he was a good sport about it all.
He was apparently on cloud nine, and the reason why is obvious -- he's dating Rihanna, who looked incredible in a silk slip dress and a furry bolero ... so it's clear why he couldn't keep his hands off her.
The couple have been spending a lot of time in France recently. Just last month, they met up with French President Emmanuel Macron, and Rihanna also attended PFW -- who can forget that meeting with Natalie Portman?!
It's unclear if they'll stay in Paris for Rihanna's bday on February 20. But, no matter where they'll be ... looks like the singer's gonna be showered with lavish gifts from her boo.
A$AP told TMZ Hip Hop earlier this month that finding the right gift for his lady is easy peasy 'cause he has good taste and knows what to look for.
We're assuming a whole lotta diamonds then?!

Megan Fox I'm No Ukrainian Blowup Doll!!! Dragged for Joke About Pic with Taylor & Travis
You'd think Megan Fox is Vladimir Putin the way Ukrainians are comin' for her -- they're pissed off about a self-deprecating comment she made, but Megan thinks everyone just needs to lighten the hell up!
Megan decided to respond to the torrent of social media comments on a pic she and MGK took Sunday night in Vegas with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Haters blew her up with claims she'd surgically altered her face, so she fired back by posting a different angle of the foursome, and insisted she didn't look all that different.
She quipped in her caption, "turns out it was just a shadowy cell phone pic of me looking like a ukrainian blowup doll. when in REALITY i look one of those super expensive silicone real sex dolls you can only get in japan."
Welp ... Megan's "joke" didn't land with thousands of Ukrainians, who've left comments like, "Wtf? I'm from Ukrainian ...Am I looking like a blow up doll?" ... "I guess xenophobia towards Eastern European is still a thing in Hollywood" and "Ukraine is being annihilated in a war unprovoked. Pls can we just focus on that."
Megan's not taking the backlash quietly, as she's responded to a few of the comments, and clearly wants people to know they've got it all twisted -- she wrote, "dear god. that is NOT what i meant. ukrainian women are hot af and so in my imagination the blowup dolls would also be hot. let a girl make a joke for f***s sake."
The only good news for Megan is ... she's yet to hear from pissed off Japanese people. Wait for it.

Jackson Mahomes Caught Up in K.C. Shooting ... Helped Out Child, Says Eyewitness
Jackson Mahomes was caught up in the chaos during the Kansas City parade shooting -- at least according to one eyewitness ... who says she saw him going above and beyond.
A woman named Jess revealed on X Wednesday that Patrick Mahomes' little brother had actually stuck around in the aftermath of the Chiefs parade -- and was apparently on the scene when shots rang out and people started panicking.
She writes, "I don’t care what anyone says but I have found a new found respect for Jackson Mahomes, Ana and I were stuck hiding with him at union station by the trains and he was taking care of a child who lost his parents and helping him calm down."
Her tweet has since gone viral ... and while she didn't elaborate beyond that, the story about Jackson is being praised and shared -- with many expressing shock Jackson was there.
The Chiefs players/staff had already left by the time gunfire erupted ... so it's shocking to hear JM may have still been around. According to Jess ... not only was he on the scene, but he was helping others -- including the most vulnerable people who were scared/distressed.
What Jess goes on to describe about the moment is absolutely horrifying -- and if she's saying Jackson was right there with her ... then he was experiencing the exact same thing.
She says, "We heard pops and then we saw everyone rushing running crying headed towards where I was standing in panic and we had to jump over the gates by the stage and entrance of union station running for our lives in union station hearing gunshots seeing people HIDING IN OVENS!"
2/14/24
The Chiefs org itself said afterward that all players, coaches and staff members were safe and accounted for -- but on its face, it doesn't sound like that applied to Jackson ... that is, if what this eyewitness is describing is accurate ... though, she seems quite sure.
As we reported ... at least one person was left dead from the shooting, and 22 other suffered gunshot wounds of varying degrees. A few people were detained, but no arrests have been announced just yet ... and police say they're still investigating what exactly happened.
Video of a man being tackled by bystanders appears to show someone picking up a rifle of some sort and tossing it aside -- although, it's unclear what the motive for the shooting was.
The most tragic part about this is that several of the victims are children, nearly a dozen.
We've reached out to Jackson's camp for comment ... so far, no word back.

Sharon Stone Cops Protected Me During O.J. Chase ... I Was THAT Famous in '90s
Sharon Stone didn't have any connection to O.J. Simpson back in 1994 ... but when The Juice was loose, Stone was locked up tight -- with cops sequestering her in a hotel room.
The megastar actress talked about how her fame exploded after the 1992 film "Basic Instinct" came out in an interview with InStyle Magazine ... and said she was so big two years later that when O.J. took cops on a low-speed chase, LAPD officers showed up at her door.
According to SS ... while the dramatic pursuit was in progress, officers showed up at Sharon's door and told her to pack a bag in the next 10 minutes.
Stone says one officer specifically told her, "He’s dangerous. And we don’t know how dangerous, and we don’t know what this is."
Worth noting ... Stone had no actual connection to Simpson -- leading some to wonder why the police would show up to her house anyway. Obviously, Stone was one of the biggest movie stars of the time, but tons of famous people live in L.A., and LAPD didn't go to all their houses as far as we know.
One person who didn't question why the police were there ... Sharon Stone, who quickly packed a bag and left with officers who took her to a hotel. Sharon said her life had become so crazy after "Basic Instinct" blew up she didn't think anything of the protection.
They recommended she buy a house with a gate and hire some security -- advice Stone took, and one of many expensive measures Sharon said she paid for to keep herself safe.
Of course, Simpson later returned to his home where -- following a lengthy standoff -- O.J. turned himself in to police. He was charged with the murders of Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman ... but, of course, he was found not guilty of both slayings.
As for why officers showed up to protect Stone ... maybe they just really wanted to meet her. 🤷🏽♂️

BRUCE WILLIS' WIFE POSTS SMITTEN VALENTINE'S TRIBUTE 'Love Is A Beautiful Thing'
Bruce Willis' wife, Emma Heming, paid a heartwarming Valentine's tribute to him ... letting the actor, who is battling dementia, know that he'll always have her by his side.
"Love is a beautiful thing ❤️ Wishing you all a Happy Valentine's Day 🫶🏽," Emma wrote in an IG post Wednesday, which shows the 68-year-old "Die Hard" actor's face pressed up to her while posing at Niagara Falls.
She revealed in the comments it was an old school photo from March 2010, which was two years after they went public with their romance.
Emma's love for Bruce is clearly stronger than her ... proving she'll never leave his side, especially amid his grueling dementia battle. His family announced his aphasia diagnosis two years ago, and his retirement from acting.
Bruce's condition worsened exactly one year ago when he was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia.
Emma's spoken candidly of his health ... telling 'Today' that it's "hard to know" how aware he is and he'd lost the ability to make decisions for himself -- and it looks to be taking a toll on her, too, as she's become his caretaker.
Of course, Bruce has a huge family ... and the rest of his nearest and dearest, including his ex, Demi Moore, and all of his adult children, have stepped in to help, too.
Family always has a way of pulling through, especially when times get tough.

Kevin Costner and Christine Baumgartner have settled their super bitter divorce and finalized the judgment ... TMZ has learned.
According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Kevin and Christine signed a Marital Settlement Agreement, which they filed with the court. Since more than 6 months have passed since Christine filed for divorce -- the required waiting time in California -- the case is over.
Details of the settlement are not yet available, but we're told the judge validated the prenup that became a big bone of contention during the divorce.
Both parties asked for joint custody of their 3 kids, and, as you know, Christine got $63,000 a month in child support. She was asking for an eye-popping $248,000 a month, but her justification was shaky, to say the least. One of the items she put in her expense declaration -- $100,000 for cosmetic surgery. BTW, before the child support ruling, Kevin offered her $75k a month.
Kevin and Christine personally signed the document signaling the settlement, along with their respective lawyers, disso queen Laura Wasser and Marisa Beuoy.
The document also says the parties waive the typical requirement of co-parenting classes.
Both Kevin and Christine have moved on. He's dating Jewel, and Christine is dating a friend of hers and Kevin's, Josh Connor.

A man who was shot after the Kansas City Super Bowl Parade ended -- shot along with his wife and son -- says immediately before shots rang out he heard a woman tell a guy in the crowd, "Don't do it. Not here. This is stupid."

Jacob Gooch Sr. says his wife and daughter saw the shooter fire as he spun in a circle. There was talk the shooting might have been the result of two or more people beefing with each other, but if Gooch's account is correct, spinning in a circle as the gunman fired suggests he was trying to hit as many people as he could.
And there's this ... 15 minutes before the shooting, he saw what he thought were suspicious people near him ... 4 to 6 "kids," wearing black masks and black clothing. He says they disappeared in the crowd shortly before the rally ended.

Not the best timing on Valentine's Day ... "Hot Ones" host Sean Evans and porn star Melissa Stratton broke up less than 24 hours after their relationship made headlines.
Sources close to Melissa tell TMZ … Sean called her up on Valentine's Day and broke up with her, telling her he wanted to call it quits because of the media attention they were getting.
We're told Sean expressed to Melissa he wanted to keep his love life more under wraps.

TMZ was first to report on Sean and Melissa's relationship after she shared a series of photos with him at Super Bowl LVIII.
We broke the story Monday afternoon, and he broke up with her the following day.
Our sources say Sean was fine with Melissa posting photos of them from their Super Bowl adventures in Las Vegas ... another reason she was caught off guard here.

"The Princess and The Frog" star Jennifer Cody is thrilled Tiana's Bayou Adventure is taking shape at the Disney parks ... replacing the controversial Splash Mountain after years of public outcry.
The actress, who played Charlotte La Bouff in the 2009 movie, tells TMZ she's applauding Disney for finally deciding to keep up with the times and replacing Splash Mountain's animatronics due to its racist themes.
IYDK, SM was based on the 1946 film, "Song of the South," which has been heavily criticized for years for its racist depictions of Southern Black men and its portrayal of the antebellum South.
For that reason, Jennifer tells us it was about time the hateful and hurtful ride was taken down.
Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.
Its log flume replacement, Tiana's Bayou Adventure, will open up Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom this summer and later on in the year at Cali's Disneyland Park. Animatronics for the new attraction are said to be next-level -- something that delights Jennifer 'cause she thinks the animators from the studio's first Black princess story weren't appreciated enough.
However, while she's happy Disney's investing in Black stories ... she's hoping people on the ride can look past Tiana's "Black princess" concept -- and feel inspired to emulate her strong, courageous entrepreneurial qualities.
All in all, JC has every confidence the new ride will go down a treat for Disney fanatics ... hoping it'll even beat out the fan-favorite 'Guardians of the Galaxy' ride. Only time will tell, but one thing we know for sure is where Jennifer will be this summer!
