La vieja enemistad entre Katy Perry y Taylor Swift está enterrada, algo que ya sabíamos, pero que fue doblemente confirmado con la aparición de Katy en su show en Australia, en donde cantó una canción en particular.

La estrella del pop fue una de las famosas que asistió al primer concierto de Taylor Swift en Sydney, donde apareció colgando una credencial VIP con Rita Ora y, por supuesto, Travis Kelce, quien voló desde Estados Unidos para estar con su novia.

La presencia de Katy es interesante considerando que solían tenerse bronca con Tay Tay.

Por eso, que estuviera cantando "Bad Blood" -que siempre se ha rumoreado que se trata de Katy- fue algo fascinante de ver. Mientras Taylor la interpretaba sobre el escenario, ella fue grabada desde la multitud. Es el colmo de la ironía y la prueba de que ahora están bien.

Katy incluso publicó una foto con Taylor después del show y se veían muy amigas.

Por si no lo saben, toda la saga se remonta a 2014 más o menos, cuando Taylor lanzó "Bad Blood" en alusión al quiebre de una amistad, y la mayoría de la gente asumió que se refería a Katy, explicando que era un problema de personal.

Taylor habló de ello en el momento sin nombrar a Katy Perry: "Ella hizo algo horrible. Yo estaba como, 'oh, solo somos directamente enemigas'. Y ni siquiera se trataba de un chico. Tenía que ver con negocios. Básicamente, intentó sabotear toda una gira".

Taylor Swift añadió: "Ella trató de contratar a un montón de gente de debajo de mí. Y yo soy sorprendentemente no-confrontacional -no creerían lo mucho que odio el conflicto. Así que ahora tengo que evitarla. Es incómodo y no me gusta".

Katy terminó respondiendo con su propia canción, y llegó a decir que su disputa fue sobre los bailarines de apoyo, esto es, que Katy contrató a algunos de los empleados de Taylor.

Al final, terminaron haciendo las paces. Taylor lanzó la canción y video "You Need to Calm Down", en la que Katy hizo un cameo y estaba claramente bien con ella de nuevo.

On this episode of The TMZ podcast ...

'Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills' star Brandi Glanville is threatening to sue Andy Cohen over alleged sexual misconduct from her experience on 'Girls Trip.'

Kelly Rowland is continuing to dodge any questions surrounding her walk off the 'Today' set over dressing room conditions. Seems like she's not going to spill the beans anytime soon!

Justin Timberlake revealed to social media that he has caught the flu, and as a result, had to cancel his upcoming London concert.

Plus, Travis Kelce attended Taylor Swift's first Sydney concert, and she planted a kiss on him following the show.

Travis Kelce was front and center for his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, as she took the stage down under anew ... and she showed her appreciation for him afterward with a little sugar.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end was among thousands of people in attendance Friday at Accor Stadium in Sydney -- where T-Swift kicked off a fresh round of performances heading into the weekend. Just like at other shows of hers he's been to ... the fans went wild.

Lots of videos are floating around on X that show TK making his way to his spot in the stadium -- and as he passed a bunch of Swifties ... they were losing their s*** screaming.

Travis soaked up all the attention ... clapping and waving at all the young'ns as he passed them -- with security flanking him on all sides, of course. He had a buddy with him too -- Ross Travis -- who's a former Chiefs player ... and who's randomly accompanying Travis on this Aussie trip. Taylor's dad, Scott, was also in the mix as Trav went to his VIP tent.

BTW ... there were other famous people at this show -- namely, Katy Perry and Rita Ora ... and Travis snapped a photo with the latter. Indeed, he's got his friendship bracelet on! After the concert, he was there to greet Taylor -- and lingering fans saw her plant one on him.

As Travis and co. looked on ... Taylor was onstage doing her thing, and put on a helluva show like she normally does. Lots of highlights from that -- all captured in photos, no less.

When it comes to Travis -- the dude is obviously committed to the relationship -- he's already traveled internationally for Taylor before this ... and he did it again here in Australia. He hasn't missed a beat either with Taylor since arriving -- going from plane to zoo date ASAP.

It's no small feat. As we reported ... Travis' long trip to see Taylor again began Tuesday night when he jumped on a private plane from L.A. after having dinner at Nobu Malibu.

He first jetted off to Hawaii for a short stay and then flew to Sydney, where he was pictured walking off the aircraft and climbing inside an SUV. A long trip, no doubt -- and yet ... he powered through and went right to the Sydney Zoo with his gal, playing a good sport.

This marks the 2nd time Trav has traveled around the world for Taylor ... but don't worry, she's done the same for him. Remember, she flew from Tokyo to catch the Super Bowl in Vegas -- and was there on the sidelines cheering for him as he and the Chiefs won it all.

Some wondered if they'd be able to keep the momentum going post-football season -- and so far, it appears they have ... you don't just jet off to Australia if you're half in on a relationship.

We know Trav will be there through the weekend ... but the question is, will he be her roadie through the rest of the tour? She's got shows in Singapore next as the "Eras" tour rolls on.

Katy Perry's old feud with Taylor Swift is dunzo -- something we already knew, but which was double confirmed by the fact KP crashed her Aussie show ... and sang a certain song.

The pop star was one of a handful of famous people on hand Friday for T-Swift's first Sydney concert -- where she was hanging in the VIP tent with Rita Ora and, of course, Travis Kelce ... who flew on down to be with his girlfriend.

Katy's presence was interesting though ... on account that she and Tay Tay used to beef.

That's why her singing "Bad Blood" -- which has always been rumored to be about Katy -- was fascinating to see ... as Taylor belted out the tune onstage, she was being recorded singing along down in the crowd. It's the ultimate irony ... and proof they're all good now.

Katy even posted a picture with Taylor after the show ... and they look very chummy.

If you're unfamiliar ... the whole saga dates back to 2014 or so, when Taylor was first releasing "Bad Blood" -- during which she alluded to a rift in a friendship ... and most everyone assumed she was referring to Katy, explaining it was a personnel issue.

Taylor talked about it at the time without naming KP ... "She did something so horrible. I was like, ‘Oh, we’re just straight-up enemies.’ And it wasn’t even about a guy! It had to do with business. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour."

TS added ... "She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I’m surprisingly non-confrontational – you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It’s awkward, and I don’t like it."

Katy ended up responding with her own diss track, of sorts, and went on to say that their feud was all about backup dancers -- namely, Katy hiring some of Taylor's own staffers.

In the end ... they ended up making up by the time Taylor dropped her song/video for 'You Need to Calm Down' -- in which Katy made a cameo ... and was clearly cool with her again.

Now, they're buddies, it seems, and all that bad blood has turned into water under a bridge.

Speaking of water ... there was a lot of it at Taylor's Sydney show -- albeit, well before curtain call. Some fans got caught in a brief downpour as they were filing into the stadium

Justin Timberlake se agarró un resfrío que lo ha obligado a cancelar su show en Inglaterra.

En un video publicado en X, el cantante y actor dio la mala noticia en lo que parecía ser una pieza de hotel mientras hablaba como si tuviera una rana en la garganta.

Justin empezó diciendo que era "desafortunado" tener que compartir este video antes de decirle a sus fans que debía cancelar su actuación del viernes en The Roadhouse de Londres. Dijo que estaba destrozado con la decisión de cancelar el show porque había estado toda la semana en la ciudad preparándose para ello.

Justin Timberlake explicó que había estado luchando contra un resfriado, y aunque pareció sentirse mejor en un momento dado, luego empeoró.

Como saben, Justin ha estado de gira promocionando su próximo disco, "Everything I Thought I Was", y recientemente anunció actuaciones en el Reino Unido y en toda Europa.

También acaba de lanzar una nueva canción, "Drown", que sigue al primer single de su próximo álbum "Selfish".

El mes pasado, TMZ obtuvo imágenes de Justin Timberlake deslumbrando a la multitud del Orpheum Theater de Memphis, Tennessee por 90 minutos. Seguro que hizo vibrar a todos esa noche en su estado natal.

Justin Timberlake has caught the flu ... forcing him to back out of his concert in England.

In a video posted on X, the singer/actor delivered the bad news from what appeared to be a hotel room while sounding as if he had a frog in his throat.

JT started off by saying it was "unfortunate" he had to send out this video before telling fans he was canceling Friday's performance at The Roadhouse in London. He said he was gutted by the decision to nix the show because he had been in town all week prepping for it.

But, as JT explained, he's been battling a bug and, while he felt better at one point, he then took a turn for the worse.

As you know, JT has been on tour promoting his upcoming record, "Everything I Thought I Was," recently announcing shows in the UK and throughout Europe.

He also just released a new song, "Drown," which was a follow-up to the first track off his forthcoming album, "Selfish."\

Last month, TMZ obtained footage of JT dazzling a packed crowd for 90 minutes at the Orpheum Theater in Memphis, Tennessee. He sure gave everyone in his home state a real treat that night.

After JT gets rid of that nasty illness, he'll be right back onstage cranking out his tunes. Feel better, JT!!!

Bianca Censori is once again showing off her assets at Kanye West's latest listening party for his new album ... only this time, it's not just her bod on display -- it's her new 'do.

Ye's wife switched up her look big time for Thursday's "Vultures" event over in Italy ... it's the first time we've seen her rocking bangs since she's been with Kanye -- usually, her hair is slicked back, or just short and messy. Here, however, it's very "Amelie"-like.

Bianca's not getting away from her bread and butter despite the new 'do ... namely, she's once again showing off her curves in yet another eye-popping outfit -- which is kinda her M.O. these days.

Check out this video that's circulating online -- her breasts and butt are totally visible in the see-through getup she's got on ... and, per usual, she has no shame in her game.

FWIW, this ain't the first time she's worn something like this ... we've seen her in a similar fit, albeit that one was white.

Anyway, with what she's wearing ... you might've not even noticed what she was actually doing here -- look again, she's recording her hubby as he belts out his new tunes to the Italian crowd, and it seems she's even singing along with the Backstreet Boys-inspired track.

If you're wondering what Ye and co. are even doing over in Europe (again) -- they're out there promoting his new "Vultures" album with a bunch of listening events/concerts, it seems. He tried doing a couple here ... but said he was having trouble booking venues.

The first listening party is going down right now in Milan, and there's another one on tap for Saturday in Bologna ... before Kanye leaves Italy and heads to France for a Sunday event in Paris. It would appear Western Europe has been more receptive to him than the States.

Nonetheless, the place looks pretty rocking tonight ... and Bianca's having a good time supporting her man -- just as she has been for the past year or so they've been an item.

Say what you want about her ... but she's had Kanye's back through thick and thin -- and he certainly seems smitten with her too. They dress pretty funky ... but hey, they're in love.

And despite controversy, Ye continues to carry on ... "Vultures" has actually performed pretty decently for him -- so on its face, you could argue he feels like he's "back."

Whether that's actually true or not ... well, depends on who you ask, we suppose.

Rubi Rose has a promising career as a contortionist if her rap career doesn't pan out ... at least that's what we can gather from her very flexible moves here, including wall splits.

NYC-based celebrity trainer Wade Jones recently invited RR to his studio where he trained her on the proper technique of getting low on the flo' ... promising her stronger shoulders in the process.

Rubi's been an advocate for the modern-day flexible woman for years but even she admitted her workout with Wade pushed her to the limit ... in ways she couldn't imagine.

Wade's given lessons to other female artists such as Cardi B, Lizzo, and DreamDoll in the past and is currently on tour.

"The Joe Budden Podcast" argued Kanye West's rapping on his "Vultures 1" album left a lot to be desired ... but all the guest rappers stole the show in their opinion, especially Freddie Gibbs!!!

On episode 699 "TherapIsh," Joe Budden dinged Ye's performances on the entire project by calling his efforts "bad, bad rapping" ... but he and the 'JBP' crew were unanimously impressed with Freddie's contribution on the track "Back To Me."

They crowned Freddie's verse the best out of the bunch on the album but feel everyone pretty much did their thing lyrically 'cept for Ye ... at least his beats were on point!!!

Despite the mixed reviews, the album still has buzz in the streets. On Thursday, Freddie posted a vid of himself in Italy ahead of tonight's listening sesh inside the Milan Forum ... and the album still is sitting pretty at #1 on the Billboard Albums chart.

Eminem posts to social media on rare occasions and there now appears to be a clear-cut explanation ... Slim Shady still uses his freakin' BlackBerry!!!

On Thursday, DJ Whoo Kid posted a flick of him, Em and D12's Mr. Porter inside an L.A. dressing room, exposing Em's favoritism towards the outdated tech in the process.

The rap G.O.A.T. was also rocking a shirt with Too Short's classic "Short Dog's in the House" album ... ever the avid hip hop head!!!

The 3 amigos were slyly promoting Em's "Mom's Spaghetti" after a viral negative review knocked the restaurant, with the Shade 45 host joking like he swindled Em's last box of pasta.

Earlier this week, a food critic named Mr. Chimetime declared "Mom's Spaghetti" as the worst dish he's ever had because it tasted stale ... which is the exact basis of the restaurant's existence -- to recreate the satisfaction of a leftover, microwaved meal after a Midwestern hard day's work.

Jack Harlow's currently dominating the Billboard Hot 100 -- but says the real celeb is his pet pooch ... and he's got a tight leash on the animal's true identity, which he won't reveal.

We shot the breeze with JH in Bev. Hills this week as the Kentucky-born rapper's hit is killing the charts -- his "Lovin On Me" smash hit returned to #1 for the sixth time this week ... and Jack humbly tells us he's currently the act to beat in the rap game.

He totally has the motion to back it up ... his cameo in Ben Affleck's star-studded Dunkin Donuts ad earned high marks on Super Bowl Sunday -- allowing for all the exclusive merch to sell out in minutes!!!

Jack says Ben's relatability made shooting the spot easy-peasy... apparently, they gelled through their connection as actors -- something JH says he appreciated as they collab'd.

Jack's clearly not running from the limelight but when we asked his dog's name, he refused to give it to us ... out of respect for her privacy!!! Aww ... 🥰

The adorable doggy helped JH sell the single to the masses -- he used the doggo in promoting it -- but we respect the insistence on secrecy all the same. Dogs have rights too, dammit!

Nobody knows her name at this point ... and it sounds like Jack's keeping it that way.

One last thing that was kinda funny about this ... we're not 100% sure, but it looks like Jack's pup here might've left a little mess behind. Hard to tell for certain if the crap came from his dog -- it looks a little big for that small thing if we're being honest -- but there it lay.

Hollywood is collectively saying "howdy" to cowboy hats ... hopping on a trend that's being fueled by Beyoncé's transition to country music.

With Queen B playing some poker on the charts, celebs lately are going full country ... and busting out their Western wear ... particularly above the shoulders. Kim Kardashian, Pharrell Williams, Diplo and Bella Hadid are among the stars being lassoed in to this latest look.

Of course, the poster child for the cowboy hat resurgence is Beyoncé. She's been rocking these 10-gallon hats a lot in recent months ... and we gotta say, she wears them well.

Bey incorporated the look into her "Renaissance" tour, but it's really catching fire now that she's galloping into country with two new songs ... "Texas Hold 'Em" and "16 Carriages."

Some celebs are really going all in, like "Selling Sunset" stars Emma Hernan, Chelsea Lazkani and Chrishell Stause ... pairing their cowboy hats with cowboy boots and chaps, plus a riding bull to boot!!! Safe to say, the cowboy/cowgirl look is all the rage.

Madonna brought out a special guest for her concert north of the border, playing to the crowd with a fan favorite and national treasure ... none other than Pamela Anderson!!!

Madonna was performing in front of a sold-out crowd Wednesday night at Rogers Arena in Vancouver -- when Pamela, the hometown hero, joined her onstage.

The two icons hugged and kissed on the cheek before sitting down together for Madonna's hit song, "Vogue." TMZ has it all on video ... Pamela and Madonna act as judges as models turn the stage into a runway, strutting their stuff and striking a pose in front of them.

As you can see, Pamela and Madonna are holding up scorecards as they judge the fake pageant on stage ... and it's mostly 10s across the board.

Madonna's obviously in full hair and makeup for her "Celebration" tour, but Pamela was fresh-faced and au naturel ... hey, no complaints here!!! BTW, this all-natural look is actually something Pam has been rockin' a lot lately -- it's kind of her new thing, in fact.

She's got a new skincare line out called Sonsie ... and the whole idea here about her products is that it's all about promoting minimalist beauty -- something PA is sticking to out in public. She's not wearing any makeup these days ... even when she's next to Madge!

Madonna hizo algo exepcional durante su concierto al norte de la frontera, tocando para el público con una favorita de los fans y tesoro nacional, ¡nada menos que Pamela Anderson!

Madonna estaba actuando frente a una multitud la noche del miércoles en el Rogers Arena de Vancouver, cuando Pamela -la heroína de la ciudad- se unió a ella en el escenario.

Las dos divas se abrazaron y se besaron en la mejilla antes de sorprender con la exitosa canción de Madonna, "Vogue" y TMZ lo tiene todo en video. Pamela y Madonna actúan como jueces mientras las modelos convierten el escenario en una pasarela, luciéndose y posando.

Como se puede ver, Pamela y Madonna están sosteniendo las tarjetas de puntuación y son muy amables al calificar casi todo con un 10.

Madonna, obviamente, estaba maquillada y peinada como su "Celebration Tour" dicta, pero Pamela se mostró al natural. Por cierto, este look natural es algo que Pam ha estado llevando mucho últimamente, de hecho es su nuevo estilo.

Ella tiene una nueva línea de cuidado de la piel llamada Sonsie, cuya idea es promover la belleza minimalista. Es por eso que no lleva nada de maquillaje estos días, ¡incluso estando al lado de Madonna!

Kelly Rowland is passing on an opportunity to explain exactly what happened on the "Today" show ... and as she makes clear here, she only wants to discuss her new movie.

The singer was directly asked about her recent "Today" controversy during an interview Wednesday with WGN News in Chicago -- where she was plugging her upcoming movie, "Mea Culpa" ... and based on this alone, you can tell she ain't gonna spill the beans.

The news anchor asks Kelly if she can clear up what happened on "Today" -- because, as he notes, there's all these different reasons out there as to why she bailed on cohosting the show. Remember, some suggested she was actually peeved over Beyoncé questions.

Anyway, Kelly sticks to her guns here ... and kinda dug her heels in on refusing to talk about it -- and we'll be honest, it's kinda awkward. Check it out ... she says straight up, nah.

Kelly explains that she's not going to talk about it because she wants to keep the spotlight on her new Netflix film ... though she does say she loves the "Today" show and Hoda Kotb.

Like we said ... it's bizarre that continues to refuse to just address the elephant in the room. In fact, you could argue that her trying to ignore it is only making the legend grow -- and at this point, it seems to be all anyone wants to talk about ... even though she insists on just promoting. On its face, her strategy seems to be backfiring ... but she's not cluing into this.

While Kelly's not getting into the deets -- we did get to the bottom of this ourselves ... as we first told you, the true reason why she bolted from the "Today" set was, in fact, the dressing room thing. Namely, her not being satisfied with NBC's rinky-dink rooms to get prepped.

Some have accused her of being a diva -- but Hoda and co. appear to be falling on the sword for Kelly ... profusely apologizing and begging her to come back, while also publicly acknowledging their dressing rooms do actually suck. It's been a little cringe to watch, TBH.

Of course, Hoda and them have since invited Kelly back ... and they're hoping for a whole do-over, with refurbished and upgraded dressing rooms ready for the Destiny's Child alum.

Based on what Kelly's saying here ... it sounds like she might, perhaps, take 'em up on it.

Kelly Rowland está dejando pasar la oportunidad de explicar lo que pasó exactamente en "Today", y como deja claro en este clip, solo quiere hablar de su nueva película.

La cantante fue consultada directamente por su reciente controversia en "Today" en una entrevista con WGN News de Chicago este miércoles, donde estuvo promocionando su próxima película "Mea Culpa" y basándonos en esto, se puede decir que no va a hablar.

El presentador de noticias le pregunta si puede aclarar lo que pasó, porque como él señala, hay diferentes razones circulando de por qué desistió de co-presentar el programa. Recuerden, algunos sugirieron que estaba enfadada por las preguntas sobre Beyoncé.

De todos modos, Kelly se rehusó a habar y vamos a ser honestos, fue un poco incómodo. Echa un vistazo, ella directamente le dice que no.

Kelly explica que no va a hablar de ello porque quiere centrar la atención en su nueva película de Netflix, aunque dice que le encanta el programa "Today" y Hoda Kotb.

Como hemos dicho, es extraño que se siga resistiendo a abordar el "elefante en la habitación". De hecho, se podría argumentar que su intento por ignorarlo solo está agrandando el mito, y a estas alturas, parece que todos quieren hablar de ello, a pesar de su insistencia en centrarse en la promoción del filme. A primera vista, su estrategia parece ser contraproducente ... pero ella no está dando ninguna pista.

Aunque Kelly no ha entrado en detalles, nosotros decidimos llegar al fondo del asunto por nuestra cuenta. Como les contamos por primera vez, la verdadera razón por la que se escapó del set de "Today" fue, de hecho, por los camerinos. Esto es, que no estaba satisfecha con las habitaciones de mala muerte de NBC para prepararse.

Algunos la han acusado de ser una diva, pero Hoda y compañía parecen estar de acuerdo con ella y le han pedido disculpas profusamente, rogándole incluso que vuelva. También han reconocido públicamente que sus camerinos en realidad apestan.

Para ser honestos, ha sido un poco incómodo de ver.

Por supuesto, Hoda y el equipo han invitado a Kelly nuevamente desde entonces y están esperando poder hacer todo de nuevo, actualizado los camerinos para que estén listos para la ex integrante de Destiny's Child.

Por lo que Kelly está diciendo aquí, suena como que tal vez podría.
