There's gonna be a Taylor Swift listening party at the Chiefs' facility on Friday ... 'cause Patrick Mahomes says he will be blasting her new album all day!!

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback revealed his plans with Carrington Harrison on "The Drive" radio show ... just hours before Swift's 12th studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl," dropped on Friday.

"I'm super excited," Mahomes said. "I haven't been able to hear the album yet, but I'm super excited to be able to do that. It will be blaring all through the Chiefs' facility tomorrow."

Think Joe Alwyn was in the clear? Think again ... Taylor Swift just dropped a Shakespearean shade-bomb at the "Hamlet" star on "The Life of a Showgirl," and Swifties are screaming -- it’s totally about him!

On "The Fate of Ophelia," Taylor flips Ophelia’s drowning tragedy on its head ... fans think that "dug me out of my grave" line is all about Travis rescuing her from the mess Joe left behind.

Taylor’s basically saying she went from Ophelia-level despair to full-on redemption thanks to her fiancé -- clearly choosing him over Joe, who, funnily enough, just starred in a new "Hamlet" movie. The connection? Oh, it’s so there!

Taylor Swift has been completely swept off her feet by Travis Kelce, and she's making that well-known in one of her hit songs on her new album, "The Life of a Showgirl."

The pop icon just released the sexy tune, "Wood," and the lyrics more than suggest she's madly in love with Travis, who broke her losing streak with men.

Just read the lyrics ... “Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me / And opened my eyes / Redwood tree / It ain’t hard to see / His love was the key / That opened my thighs.”

Did anyone know Taylor Swift is a HUGE fan of Baby Spice from the Spice Girls? Well, if not, you do now because Taylor just gushed about it to none other than Baby Spice!

Taylor sat down Friday with Emma Bunton — AKA Baby Spice — to chat about her new smash hit record, "The Life of a Showgirl," on Bunton's "Heart Breakfast" show, co-hosted by Jamie Theakston in London.

During the interview, Taylor turned into a fangirl right before everyone's eyes, revealing she completely freaked out over Baby Spice back when the Spice Girls were still a thing.

Ray J has responded to Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner's defamation lawsuit ... and his rebuttal is as stunning as it is brazen.

TMZ broke the news ... Kim and Kris were fed up with Ray J claiming they're the subject of a federal criminal racketeering investigation ... and slapped him with a suit for defamation.

On a recent livestream, Ray went through the lawsuit ... and said they were trying to make him a "slave" ... and prior millions they allegedly paid him as hush money went unmentioned in the paperwork.

Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show could very well feature something no other NFL act ever has -- a WWE Superstar as a backup dancer!!!

Damian Priest tells TMZ Sports ... he's super down to hit the SB LX stage in February to give his good pal Benito a lift if he wants one.

Keith Urban's not letting his personal life get in the way of his professional ... hopping back onstage for the first time since Nicole Kidman filed for divorce.

The singer-songwriter took the stage at the Giant Center in Hershey, Pennsylvania Thursday. According to PEOPLE, the country star paid tribute to his family by displaying a photo of Nicole and their daughters in a slideshow while performing his 2024 song "Heart Like a Hometown."

Urban reportedly reflected on his own beginnings, recalling how his parents supported his dream by allowing him to leave school and chase music full-time.

It's unclear if Maggie Baugh performed with him ... remember, she's the musician who he changed the lyrics of "The Fighter" for back in April -- singing to her instead of about his now-estranged wife Nicole.

Nicole Kidman's tried to fly under the radar in Tennessee Thursday after a rough week that saw her file for divorce from Keith Urban ... but she couldn't escape the camera lens of the paparazzi.

TMZ obtained photos of the iconic actress making her first public appearance since her split with Urban and she was clearly trying to keep a low profile.

We caught her in Nashville as she walked to her vehicle, wearing athletic gear and a baseball cap pulled down low with black sunglasses. She also seemed deep in thought.

Just like Urban, Nicole's no longer wearing her wedding ring in these pics ... so, it seems safe to say this relationships isn't going to revived -- at least, not easily.

Diddy is staring down one of the biggest days of his life -- his prison sentencing -- and now just one day before that goes down, he’s been hit with two new sexual assault lawsuits.

Ward alleges Diddy drugged and sexually assaulted her at a pool party he hosted at his L.A. home in 2018.

He joins an extensive lineage of legendary Atlanta artists each with their own day ... Outkast, Future, Killer Mike, Ludacris, 21 Savage, Jeezy, the late Rich Homie Quan -- we told you the list is extensive!!!

50 Cent's screwing with Diddy a day before the mogul finds out whether he's headed off to prison or if he gets to go home ... telling the judge to think of the general public's need for baby oil.

The rapper shared the message on Instagram Thursday afternoon ... kicking it off by addressing Judge Arun Subramanian directly and mentioning his longstanding beef with Puffy.

50 claims he's feared for his life multiple times over the years, and he wants the judge to think about the "safety of the general public" when it comes to his impending sentence.

Pharrell Williams says he'd be extremely grateful if Clipse's comeback album, "Let God Sort Em Out," won a Grammy -- unlike that ingrate Kanye West, who pissed on his award!!!

In a new interview with Billboard, Pharrell gushed over the acclaimed project that he, Pusha T and Malice pieced together in July, while aspiring for the VA-bred collective to take the center stage at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards next year.

And like Pusha T did during the album's rollout, Pharrell couldn't resist taking a swipe at Ye all the same.

Keith Urban just surfaced for the first time since that Nicole Kidman divorce bombshell dropped -- and yep, the ring’s already MIA!

Peep the pics -- Keith touched down Thursday in Hershey, PA on a private jet, headed straight for Giant Center, where he's performing this evening on tour ... so work mode’s clearly still on, even while he’s dealing with the divorce drama.

Keith stepped off the jet rocking a black cap and shades, bag in hand with his ringless wedding finger -- making it pretty loud and clear: he and Nicole are officially done.

Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson are teaming up again -- not for music, but for a wild new docuseries ... TMZ has confirmed.

The show will follow Zayn and Louis as they reconnect, explore small towns and big cities, and dive into plenty of laughs along the way.
