Kansas City Chiefs

Taylor Swift and her girl squad were out in force in the City of Angels ... grabbing sushi with her fellow A-list ladies, Selena Gomez and Zoë Kravitz.

The ladies took to the highly recommended Sushi Park in West Hollywood Thursday night, and apparently, a good time was had by all -- as they were seen laughing and smiling as they left the joint.

As you know, Selena and Taylor have been pals since 2008, when Taylor was dating Joe Jonas and Selena was with Nick Jonas -- so ya, they've been through it together.

Zoë has also worked with Taylor in the past, as one of the songwriters credited on Tay's song, "Lavender Haze" ... part of her 2022 album, "Midnights."

BTW, it looks like Taylor passed up a night with her boo, Travis Kelce, for some time with the girls instead -- but he's got a game coming up in Kansas City this weekend, so there's a good chance he'll be locked in at practice for the next few days.

It's unclear if Taylor will make it back to Missouri for the game this weekend, but if she does, you can be sure both Taylor fans and NFL honchos alike will be happy to have her ... she's definitely brought some new eyes to the game.

We've also learned the Chiefs tight end bought a new pad in Kansas City for just under $6 million -- looking to get a lot more privacy as their relationship really heats up.

Jerry Jeudy is now taking the high road in his beef with Steve Smith ... saying Thursday he has "no hate toward" the former All-Pro while adding that if he had acted differently, he thinks none of their drama would have ever gone public.

You'll recall, Smith unloaded on Jeudy prior to the Denver Broncos vs. Kansas City Chiefs "Thursday Night Football" game last week ... going off after he said the Denver star wouldn't accept his apology for some words he had previously said about the wideout on his podcast.

Smith, while live on-air for the NFL Network, called Jeudy "just a guy" ... adding that he believed Jeudy was "a tier three" player.

The harsh comments quickly went viral -- but when Jeudy was asked to go in-depth about them in front of his locker this week, he didn't throw any barbs back.

Instead, he explained that he didn't initially accept Smith's apology because he didn't realize one was coming.

"One thing I do agree on, I feel like I should have just listened to what he had to say," the 24-year-old former Alabama star said. "But at the same time, I'm going back to my roots, and once someone talks bad about you behind your back, you can't talk to -- don't expect to come to them in person and think everything's going to be OK at the end of the day."

"But, like I said, if I would've known he would've came and apologized and stuff like that, it would have been a whole different story or reaction and he wouldn't have said what he said."

It's been a rough year for Jeudy outside of the Smith drama -- he started the season injured ... and has tallied only 20 receptions since he's returned to the field.

Travis Kelce vive su vida a lo grande y parte de la razón tiene que ver con Taylor Swift... TMZ ha indagado.

Fuentes familiarizadas con la situación nos dicen que el Chiefs tight end acaba de comprar una nueva casa en Kansas City con la venta de cierre el martes. Nos han dicho que la compró por poco menos de seis millones de dólares. Al parecer la compró porque es mucho más grande y más aislada que su antigua casa.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que la propiedad se encuentra en una comunidad cerrada y es una mansión que cuenta con 6 dormitorios, 6 baños y más de 16.000 pies cuadrados de espacio habitable.

Además es muy lujosa, nos dicen que hay una piscina con una cascada adjunta, además, una cancha de tenis y pickleball, por no hablar de un mini campo de golf. Ahora, en cuanto al porqué de la mudanza, nuestras fuentes dicen que había un par de cosas que le molestaban, principalmente la necesidad de más privacidad.

Nos dicen que en la antigua casa de Travis era demasiado accesible al público y estaba empezando a convertirse en una atracción turística y Travis estaba empezando a sentirse incómodo.

Estor resultó ser un problema el fin de semana pasado, cuando TayTay vino a visitar Trav en Kansas City - sólo para tener paparazzi parque fuera y husmear en 'em.

En pocas palabras, quería estar en un lugar más seguro y sí, nuestras fuentes dicen que salir con Taylor en este momento sin duda un factor en su decisión. Dicho esto, nos dicen que compró esta casa con su propio dinero en efectivo y que es solo suya.

Travis Kelce is leveling up his living situation big time -- and part of the reason has to do with Taylor Swift ... TMZ has learned.

Sources familiar with the situation tell us the Chiefs tight end just bought a new home in Kansas City, with the sale closing Tuesday. We're told he snapped it up for just under $6 million ... and, yes, for that kinda dough in KC, he's getting a place that's way bigger and more secluded than his old house.

Our sources say this pad is in a gated community, and it's a straight-up mansion ... 6 bedrooms, 6 baths and over 16,000 square feet of living space!!!

It also screams luxury ... we're told there's a pool with a waterfall attached -- plus, a tennis and pickleball court, not to mention a mini golf course. Now, as far as why he upgraded ... our sources say there were a few things nagging him, including needing more privacy.

We're told at Travis's old house, it was simply far too accessible, and was starting to become a tourist attraction ... with people swinging by and staking out the place -- Travis was getting uncomfortable with the situation.

That actually proved to be an issue as recently as this past weekend ... when TayTay came to visit Trav in Kansas City, only to have paparazzi park outside waiting for any shots of the couple.

Bottom line, he wanted to be in a more secure spot -- and yes, our sources say him dating Taylor right now certainly factored into his decision.

And, we know what some Swifties might be thinking, but, no ... we're told he bought it with his own cash, and it's his alone.

Patrick Mahomes ain't satisfied with a baseball, soccer, pickleball and F1 team -- the Kansas City Chiefs superstar just revealed he wants a stake in an NFL organization when he retires.

The two-time Super Bowl champ made his intentions known in a press conference with reporters on Wednesday ... just one day after it was announced he invested in the Formula One Alpine racing squad.

"I think Tom [Brady] is trying to do it right now, but that's definitely where you want to get to," Mahomes said. "I love this sport and want to give back in any way possible. When I'm done playing, obviously I'll be a Chiefs fan, but at the same time I want to have that competitive edge I've always had my entire life."

Of course, 28-year-old Mahomes will have to wait until he hangs his helmet up for good before he can hop on board with NFL ownership ... as the league's current rules prohibit active players from having a piece of any organization.

While he waits, Patrick says he's looking at all opportunities to expand his portfolio ... but he's already had a great start -- investing in the Kansas City Royals and Kansas City Current, just to name a few.

"I'm always looking around," Mahomes added. "I can't do it in the NFL while I'm playing, so I'm always looking around at other sports. It's hard to get in all sports, NBA, and all that different type of stuff, but I'm always keeping my ears open. If they give me the opportunity, I'm going to jump at it."

Travis Kelce was shaking in his boots when Taylor Swift came face-to-face with his dad, Ed, during his Thursday Night Football matchup last week ... admitting he has no idea what the two talked about -- and he's concerned.

The Kansas City Chiefs superstar addressed his pops' recent interaction with his new lady during his "New Heights" podcast with his brother, Jason, on Wednesday ... saying meeting his mom, Donna, is one thing -- but Ed is an entirely different animal.

"If you were watching the game, you saw something momentous happen -- which was Taylor Swift talking to Ed Kelce,'" the Eagles center said.

The two brothers joked about the pairing ... with Jason saying, "He shouldn't be talking to Taylor Swift."

"This is a terrifying conversation," Travis added. "I felt terrible for Taylor."

Jason explained the fear comes from the fact that their dad can be quite the wildcard ... and considering they didn't know what was said, the possibilities are endless.

"Talking to mom, alright that's gonna be fine. If you see dad talking to anyone and you can't hear what's happening, who knows where that conversation is going."

The guys were obviously joking ... with Travis making sure the listeners knew Ed is the "best f***ing dad in the world" -- and claiming that's where Jason gets his iconic storytelling skills.

Travis Kelce estaba temblando cuando Taylor Swift se encontró cara a cara con su padre, Ed, durante su partido de Thursday Night Football la semana pasada, admitiendo que no tiene ni idea de lo que los dos hablaron... y está preocupado.

La superestrella de los Kansas City Chiefs abordó la reciente interacción de su papá con su flamante novia durante su podcast "New Heights" con su hermano (Jason), el miércoles, diciendo que conocer a su mamá (Donna) es una cosa, pero Ed es algo completamente diferente.

"Si estabas viendo el partido, viste algo trascendental. A Taylor Swift hablando con Ed Kelce,'" dijo el centro de los Eagles.

Los dos hermanos bromearon sobre el emparejamiento con Jason diciendo: "Él no debería estar hablando con Taylor Swift".

"Esta es una conversación aterradora", añadió Travis. "Me sentí fatal por Taylor".

Jason explicó de que su padre puede ser baste impredecible y puede salir con prácticamente cualquier cosa a la hora de hablar con él, las posibilidades son infinitas.

"Hablar con mamá está bien, eso va a estar bien. Si ves a papá hablando con alguien y no puedes oír lo que está pasando, tu mente comienza a preocuparse y sabes que cualquier cosa puede estar pasando".

Obviamente los chicos están bromeando, con Travis asegurándose de que los oyentes supieran que Ed es el "mejor padre en el mundo", y alegando que es de donde Jason obtiene sus habilidades icónicas narración.

Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are taking their on-field chemistry to a completely new sport -- the Kansas City Chiefs superstars are teaming up as investors in the Alpine Formula One team ... part of a massive, $210 million investment!!

Otro Capital announced a star-studded list of sports superstars that are joining its partnership with Alpine on Tuesday ... which includes the pair of two-time Super Bowl winners, golfer Rory McIlroy, boxer Anthony Joshua and soccer players Trent Alexander-Arnold and Juan Mata.

Otro said it hopes the addition of popular athletes from all different parts of the sports world will bring new fans to Alpine ... and help in areas like media, tickets and merch.

Mahomes spoke about the business move ... saying, "I've always had a passion for all sports. The opportunity to lead an investor group with Travis in Alpine F1 alongside Otro Capital was one I couldn’t pass up."

"It's an exciting time for the sport and this is an opportunity to bring our shared values to the world stage. I’m looking forward to being a part of its growth."

Kelce added ... "I am thrilled to lead an investor group and join forces with Patrick and the team at Otro Capital on this exciting venture with Alpine F1. Our shared passion for excellence and innovation forms the cornerstone of this partnership."

"It’s about being able to contribute to a sport that demands precision, teamwork, and relentless pursuit of success. I am looking forward to this new chapter and can’t wait to see what we achieve together."

Alpine -- which also has financial backing from actors Ryan Reynolds, Michael B. Jordan and Rob McElhenney through Maximum Effort Investments -- is currently sixth in the constructor standings thanks to drivers Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly ... so it'll be interesting to see if the Chiefs duo's success can rub off on them.

Lance Bass is not the Swifties' lord and savior -- something he made abundantly clear at Monday night's Chargers game ... in hilarious fashion, no less.

The *NSYNC star was among a handful of stars at SoFi stadium during MNF -- and as the broadcast was going and cutting to different people in the crowd ... they eventually landed on LB, who was sitting in a private suite with his crew.

It looks like he was ready for the close-up ... because he had a sign propped up when they eventually panned to him, and it read "NOT TAYLOR SWIFT." He was smiling and waving -- and everyone seemed to get a kick out of it ... including fellow patrons.

It's just the latest joke someone has cracked at the expense of the NFL ... and Taylor, too, if we're being honest. There's been wall-to-wall coverage of her relationship with Travis Kelce -- which has reached a fever pitch whenever she's shown up to one of his games in person.

Mind you ... she's attended 3 football games so far, and they've all been super high-profile.

There was Taylor's initial appearance in Kansas City, which was totally surreal -- but her 2nd outing in New Jersey (with a bunch of famous pals in tow) might've been just as crazy.

She ended up skipping Travis' third game -- when he and the Chiefs went to Minnesota to play the Vikings -- but she showed face yet again just last Thursday ... when she popped up in K.C. for his game against Russell Wilson and the Broncos.

For all of them, Taylor's been seen cheering and rooting ... and there's been a lot of camera time focused on her -- to the chagrin of a lot of football fans, as we've come to learn.

There must've been a "no girls allowed" rule between the Kelce brothers at the Philadelphia Phillies game on Monday ... 'cause Travis and Jason were spotted enjoying the playoff matchup together -- and Taylor Swift was M.I.A.

The two NFL superstars hit up Citizens Bank Park for Game 1 of the NLCS against the Arizona Diamondbacks ... and the crowd was certainly happy to see them -- erupting in cheers as the bros were shown on the scoreboard in the middle of the contest.

Even though the pop singer was nowhere to be found, her presence was still felt -- as her songs were played over the sound system multiple times throughout the night.

Of course, it's not too crazy for the Phillies to show love for T-Swift -- after all, she is a Pennsylvania native ... and has previously professed her allegiance to Jason's Eagles.

Speaking of Jason -- who's beloved in the city amid a Hall of Fame career with the Birds -- he also stole the show when he chugged a beer, much to Travis' delight.

Travis' appearance at the game comes on the heels of his romantic weekend with Swift -- as we previously reported, the couple was inseparable in NYC ... including two date nights and attending "Saturday Night Live."

Taylor has since returned to the west coast ... but Travis decided to hang back for a bit longer.

Don't sweat it, Swifties ... just 'cause Taylor wasn't there with her new man doesn't really mean much -- Jason's wife, Kylie, wasn't there either ... so we take it the guys just wanted to bro out for the night.

Lance Bass no es el señor y salvador de los Swifties, algo que dejó muy claro en el partido de los Chargers del lunes por la noche de manera bastante hilarante.

La estrella de *NSYNC fue una entre muchas estrellas que asistieron al estadio SoFi para ver el juego. Durante la emisión la cámara enfoca a diferentes personas de la multitud, hasta que finalmente aterrizó en Lance, que estaba sentado en una suite privada con su equipo.

Parece que estaba listo para el primer plano porque tenía un cartel preparado que decía: "NO TAYLOR SWIFT". Sonreía y saludaba y a todo el mundo pareció divertirle... incluso a otros clientes.

No ha sido la única broma que alguien ha hecho a costa de la NFL y Taylor. Ha habido una gran cobertura de su relación con Travis Kelce, la cual alcanza un pico de fiebre cada vez que aparece en uno de sus juegos en persona.

Ella ha asistido a tres partidos de fútbol hasta el momento y en todos ellos llamó bastante la atención.

Hubo una primera aparición de Taylor en Kansas City que fue totalmente surrealista, pero su segunda aparición en Nueva Jersey (con un montón de amigos famosos en el remolque) podría haber sido igual de loca.

Ella terminó saltándose el tercer partido de Travis, cuando él y los Chiefs fueron a Minnesota para jugar contra los Vikings. Sin embargo, ella apareció de nuevo el jueves pasado para el juego contra Russell Wilson y los Broncos.

En todos esos juegos Taylor ha sido vista animando y alentando y ha habido una gran cantidad de tiempo de cámara para ella. Esto a casuado cierto disgusto de un montón de aficionados al fútbol.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are on a roll, hitting the Big Apple two nights in a row ... and showing some major PDA!!

The world's most famous couple was filmed strolling out of the Waverly Inn restaurant in Manhattan's Greenwich Village Sunday evening.

Check it out ... Taylor and Travis couldn't contain their excitement for one another, grinning from ear to ear.

They were also very affectionate. At one point, Travis held Taylor's hand in both of his, placing one on top of hers and the other underneath.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end then put a gentle hand on the pop star's backside as they moved through a crowd of onlookers and paparazzi photogs.

No kissing was caught on camera ... but the lovebirds likely saved that for later behind closed doors judging from all available evidence.

As we reported ... Taylor and Travis came out of their cocoon Saturday to reveal to everyone on earth they are officially boyfriend/girlfriend.

That night, the two were seen cuddling and holding hands at Nobu in Manhattan. They also caused a media frenzy as they arrived at the restaurant and left together after dinner.

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce están de buena racha ¡Aparecieron en la Gran Manzana dos noches seguidas!

La pareja más famosa del mundo fue filmada saliendo del restaurante Waverly Inn en el Greenwich Village de Manhattan el domingo por la noche.

Échale un vistazo al video; Taylor y Travis no podían contener su emoción el uno por el otro, sonriendo de oreja a oreja.

También se mostraron muy cariñosos. En un momento dado, Travis cogió la mano de Taylor, colocando una encima de la suya y la otra debajo.

El Kansas City Chiefs tight end luego puso una mano suavemente en el trasero de la estrella del pop mientras se movían a través de una multitud de curiosos, fotógrafos y paparazzi.

No hubo beso en la cámara pero los tortolitos probablemente guardado para más tarde a puerta cerrada a juzgar por todas las pruebas disponibles.

Como hemos informado, Taylor y Travis salieron de su escondite el sábado para revelar a todos en la tierra que son oficialmente novios.

Rob Gronkowski está tratando de hacer su fiesta anual del Super Bowl extra increíble este año, ¡diciendole a TMZ Sports que quiere a la pareja más popular del mundo allí!

Y, escucha esto, él espera que la estrella del pop cante ¡mientras Kelce se luce en la pista de baile!

"¡Ella puede interpretar una canción contigo bailando en el escenario!" le dijo en un mensaje a la estrella de los Chiefs.

Por supuesto, muchas cosas pueden suceder de aquí a que se realice la fiesta anual de Gronk "Gronk Beach" del Super Bowl de esta temporada en Las Vegas. Kelce y Swift podrían no seguir juntos y Travis podría estar participando en el Gran Juego, lo que le impediría salir de fiesta de todos modos.

Pero Rob dejó claro que si ese no es el caso, él quiere a la pareja allí, sobre todo después de que él y el tight end de Kansas City realmente congeniaron en una fiesta "Gronk Beach" en el Draft de la NFL 2022.

¡De hecho, Gronk nos explicó que allí es donde supo que Kelce realmente puede moverse, algo que cree que atrajo a Swift en primer lugar!

"¡Tiene unas caderas increíbles!" Dijo Gronk.

Rob Gronkowski's trying to make his annual Super Bowl party extra lit this year ... telling TMZ Sports he wants the hottest couple on the planet right now -- Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift -- to be there!!

And, get this ... he's hoping the pop star will sing -- while Kelce cuts a rug on the dance floor!!

"She can perform a song with you dancing on the stage!!" he said in a message to the Chiefs star.

Of course, a lot can happen between now and Gronk's annual "Gronk Beach" bash at this season's Super Bowl in Las Vegas -- Kelce and Swift might not be a thing ... and Travis could be playing in the Big Game, preventing him from partying anyways.

But Rob made it clear if that's not the case ... he wants the couple there -- especially after he says he and the Kansas City tight end really hit off at a "Gronk Beach" party at the 2022 NFL Draft.

In fact, Gronk explained to us that's where he learned Kelce can really move -- something he thinks attracted Swift to him in the first place!

"He's got unbelievable hips!" Gronk said.

Taylor Swift is so popular right now she can just say a few syllables -- and everyone goes completely nuts!!

Case in point ... Taylor made a brief -- and we mean very brief -- appearance on Saturday Night Live to introduce Ice Spice for her second performance of the evening, featuring the song, "Pretty Girl."

After a commercial break, Taylor popped up on screen and gave a four-word introduction to her music collaborator on the remix of her tune, "Karma." Taylor said, "Once Again, Ice Spice."

The crowd went absolutely crazy, screaming with applause!!!

Travis Kelce also made a cameo ... after Keenan Thompson joked that he was done with the NFL talking about Taylor's romance and wanted to hear from someone who actually talked football. Travis suddenly appeared and quipped, "Yes, me!."

And that was that. Taylor and her new beau, Travis Kelce, didn't stick around to hit the stage with the SNL cast at the end of the show, but host Pete Davidson thanked them for coming.

Of course, Taylor and Travis were in town making other big news, enjoying an intimate sushi dinner that turned into a media frenzy at Nobu in Manhattan Saturday night.

Check out video of the couple strolling hand-in-hand past the sushi bar as Travis acknowledged the chefs, one of whom waved hello to him.

An eyewitness tells us Taylor and Travis sat down next to each other and were cuddling throughout the meal.
