Gypsy Rose Blanchard's top priority when she gets out of prison next month is a tall order -- she wants to link up with Taylor Swift, and thinks she knows exactly where to do it.

The felon, who is nearing the end of her 10-year sentence for the second-degree murder of her mother, Dee Dee, is hoping her "Wildest Dreams" come true ... telling TMZ she and her husband Ryan have tickets for the Kansas City Chiefs game on Dec. 31.

Gypsy's scheduled to get out on Dec. 28, and she's counting on running into her idol at Arrowhead Stadium.

Realizing Tay Tay might not be there to watch BF Travis Kelce during that particular game, Gypsy has a backup plan, which is buying tickets for Taylor's October 2024 tour stop in New Orleans.

Clearly, she's determined to meet the singer, who Gypsy adoringly calls the "kick-ass chick" who's taught her the true meaning of girl power.

What's more, Tay's songs have served as massive inspo -- she says "Eyes Open" helped her push through the trauma from her mother's abuse ... which was detailed in the 2017 documentary, "Mommy Dead and Dearest."

Gypsy admits she mainly uses the commissary money her father sends to buy every TS album.

BTW, she's also a football fan, and would be thrilled to meet Travis too.

Of course, this might sound like a little pie in the sky -- Taylor sits in a luxury suite when she's at the stadium, and Travis is a little busy on game days.

¿La prioridad de Gypsy Rose Blanchard cuando sea puesta en libertad a principios de diciembre? Intentar ligarse a Taylor Swift, ¡por supuesto!

La delincuente se acerca al final de su condena de diez años después de declararse culpable en relación con el asesinato de su madre, Dee Dee, en 2015 y espera que sus "sueños más salvajes" se hagan realidad. Le comentó a TMZ que ella y su esposo Ryan han conseguido entradas para el juego de los Kansas City Chiefs el 31 de diciembre.

Piensa encontrarse con su ídola pocos días después de su salida de prisión el 28 de diciembre.

Consciente de que Tay Tay puede no aparecer para apoyar a su novio futbolista, Travis Kelce, durante el juego, Gypsy también está planeando comprar entradas para ver el show de Tay en Nueva Orleans en octubre de 2024.

Ella está claramente decidida a conocer a la estrella y le dice a TMZ que Taylor ha sido la que le ha mostrado el verdadero significado de girl power.

Es más, Las canciones de Tay han servido como una gran inspiración para ella, especialmente "Eyes Open", que la ayudó a avanzar a través de los abusos que sufrió y la motivó para manifestar su libertad de la cárcel.

Admite que utiliza el dinero enviado por su padre para comprar cada álbum de Taylor.

Pero, ¡espera! Conocer a Taylor no es el único reto post/prisión de Gypsy, porque también es fan de la NFL y quiere conocer a Travis.

No es tarea fácil, ya que Taylor se sienta en una suite de lujo cuando está en el estadio y Travis está un poco ocupado los días de partido.

Taylor Swift vive la vida y se divierte con amigas. ¡Amigas que en este mismo momento son noticia!

Taylor salió estuvo en Nueva York la noche del sábado con Selena Gomez, Sophie Turner, Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne y, sí ... Brittany Mahomes.

Taylor hizo su salida del restaurante Bond Street del brazo con Selena y con Brittany de la mano

Como sabemos, Selena fue noticia esta semana por publicar un mensaje en Instagram sobre Israel y Palestina que luego quitó al recibir hate en redes. Gigi y su familia han tenido sus propios problemas también, cuando su padre comparó a Israel con los nazis en un post de Instagram y luego lo quitó.

Sophie está en medio de un complicado divorcio por lo que también ha sido noticia. Y luego, está Brittany. Se ha convertido en la mejor amiga de Taylor desde que empezó a salir con el chico de su marido, la estrella de los Kansas City Chiefs Travis Kelce.

Taylor Swift lives in the moment, even hanging with friends who right at this very moment are in the news.

Taylor hit the town -- New York City, that is -- Saturday night with Selena Gomez, Sophie Turner, Gigi Hadid, Cara Delevingne and, yes ... Brittany Mahomes.

Taylor made her exit from Bond Street restaurant locking arms with Selena and had a grip on Brittany's hand.

As you know, Selena made news this week by posting a kind of hollow Instagram message about Israel and Palestine and then took it down, as if she was shocked she'd get criticism.

Gigi and her family have recently weighed in, with her dad comparing Israel to Nazis on an IG post and then taking it down.

Sophie's in the middle of a tricky divorce so she's made news as well. And then, there's Brittany. She's become an insta-best friend of Taylor's since she began dating her husband's go-to guy, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce.

It's unclear if, though unlikely, Taylor will jet to Germany today to watch her BF play the Dolphins.

Josh McDaniels fuera... ¿Andre Rison adentro?

La ex estrella de la NFL dice que si las cosas fueran a su manera, ese sería absolutamente el caso, pues Rison le dijo a TMZ Sports que "le encantaría" ser el próximo entrenador en jefe de los Raiders.

"[Mark Davis] lo sabe", dijo el ex wideout Raiders. "Y creo que todo el mundo lo sabe también".

Puede sonar descabellado para algunos, pero Rison ha estado trabajando en silencio durante años para estar a cargo de un gran equipo de fútbol.

El hombre 55 años nos dice que hace más de una década comenzó su proceso de aprendizaje junto a Deion Sanders, y claramente cree que está listo para hacerse cargo de la cabeza en un programa de gran tiempo.

Rison dice que entrenar a su alma mater, Michigan State, sería ideal, pero sustituir a McDaniels en Las Vegas también sería un sueño para él.

"Sería una gran oportunidad", dijo Rison, "una gran oportunidad no solo para mostrarle al mundo, sino para mostrarme a mí mismo la dedicación que he dado en el juego como entrenador".

Por ahora, el entrenador Antonio Pierce está teniendo la primera oportunidad en el trabajo de Las Vegas, pero en la temporada baja se espera que Mark Davis lleve a cabo una amplia búsqueda para el reemplazo permanente de McDaniels.

Josh McDaniels out ... Andre Rison in?!?

The ex-NFL star says if he had things his way, that'd absolutely be the case in Las Vegas ... telling TMZ Sports he "would love to" be the next head coach of the Raiders.

"[Mark Davis] knows that," the former Raiders wideout said. "And, I think the whole world knows it as well."

It might sound farfetched to some ... but Rison has quietly been working to be the honcho of a major football team for years.

The 55-year-old tells us over a decade ago he began the process of learning the coaching ropes alongside Deion Sanders ... and now, he clearly believes he's ready to take over the headset at a bigtime program.

Rison says turning around his alma mater, Michigan State, would be ideal ... but replacing McDaniels in Vegas is also a dream of his.

"It would be a great opportunity," Rison said, "a great chance to not only show the world, but show myself the dedication I have given in the coaching game."

For now, linebackers coach Antonio Pierce is getting the first crack at the Vegas gig ... but in the offseason, Mark Davis is expected to conduct a wide-ranging search for McDaniels' permanent replacement.

Taylor Swift salió para tener una cita de viernes por la noche en Nueva York, pero no fue exactamente con su galán de la NFL Travis Kelce, estuvo, en cambio, con su amiga y músico Phoebe Bridgers.

Taylor llegó a la famosa taberna Minetta en Greenwich Village para comer algo con Bridgers, mientras Kelce se prepara para un partido de fútbol en Alemania.

Taylor se veía estilosa en su atuendo de otoño, luciendo un suéter de color canela, pantalones marrones y tacones gruesos. Phoebe fue toda de negro, lo que contrasta con su brillante pelo plateado, que la destaca de la multitud.

El propietario de Minetta Tavern, Keith McNally, dijo más tarde a los medios que Taylor y Phoebe comieron ostras al horno y foie Gras amouse bouche. McNally señaló que a Taylor "realmente le gustaba" el foie Gras.

Después de la cena, las chicas se fueron, pero no antes de que Swift posara con el chef. A Taylor realmente le debe haber encantado el foie gras.

Pero no tanto como su novio Travis, que este domingo jugará con los Kansas City Chiefs contra los Miami Dolphins en Alemania.

Travis fue interrogado acerca de su relación con Taylor durante una conferencia de prensa el viernes en Frankfurt antes del partido.

Cuando un reportero le preguntó por una actualización de su romance, Travis dijo: "El último estado es que fui a verla la semana pasada". El periodista también quiso saber si estaba enamorado de Taylor, a lo que el jugador respondió: "Voy a mantener mi relación personal como algo personal".

Taylor Swift went out for Friday date night in NYC, but it wasn't with her hunky NFL beau Travis Kelce ... linking up instead with fellow musician Phoebe Bridgers.

Taylor arrived at the famed Minetta Tavern in Greenwich Village to grab some grub with Bridgers last evening -- while Kelce was prepping for a football game in Germany.

Taylor looked stylish in her autumn attire, sporting a tan sweater, brown dress pants and chunky heels. Phoebe was wearing all black, which contrasted with her bright silver hair, making her stand out in the crowd.

Minetta Tavern owner Keith McNally later told the media ... Taylor and Phoebe noshed on baked oysters and foie Gras amouse bouche. McNally noted Taylor "really liked" the foie Gras.

After supper, Taylor and Phoebe left the restaurant, but not before Swift posed for photos with the chef. Taylor must have really loved that foie Gras!!

But, not as much as she digs her boyfriend Travis, who will be playing with the Kansas City Chiefs against the Miami Dolphins in Germany this Sunday.

Travis was grilled about his relationship with Taylor during a Friday press conference in Frankfurt ahead of the game.

When a reporter asked for an update on their romance, Travis said, "The latest status is, ‘I got to see her last week.'" The journalist also wanted to know if Travis was in love with Taylor, and the tight end replied, ‘I’m going to keep my personal relationship personal.'”

Ex-NFL star Devin Funchess is keeping his hoop dreams alive ... telling TMZ Sports he's still hoping to suit up for an NBA team -- and he's putting in the work nonstop to make it happen!!

29-year-old Funchess made headlines last year ... revealing after five seasons on the gridiron, he wanted to take his talents to the hardwood.

We caught up with the 6'4", 225-pound athlete about how the process is going this week ... and it's safe to say he's dead set on making it to the Association.

In fact, he's putting his skills to the test with California's Statham Academy squad in the Asia Basket Dasmariñas Tournament in the Philippines this weekend (DF dropped 10 points, grabbed 7 boards, and had 4 blocks in their first game).

"My end goal is the NBA, get a few seasons over there just like I did in the NFL. Just to be able to compete against the best players in the world, that'll be a blessing to me. I've done it in the football realm already. And it's nothing but dedication, repetition and just having fun."

Devin -- who first dunked a basketball when he was 10 -- has been working with NBA trainers to hone his craft ... and played against pros like Michael Beasley, Amar'e Stoudemire and John Wall.

Funchess explains his unique experience as a football veteran will help bring experience to a squad -- even though he'd technically be a rookie.

But he's not looking to come in the league and be LeBron James -- Funchess says he's just looking to make an impact and help teams win.

Of course, basketball was Devin's first love ... but after an issue with his coach in his junior season of high school ball, he switched his focus to football. He went on to play at Michigan before suiting up for the Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Justyn Ross allegedly roughed up his girlfriend, broke her stuff ... and then knifed her Mercedes during an altercation that led to his arrest last week.

The allegations are all spelled out in newly released court documents, obtained by TMZ Sports.

In the docs -- an affidavit -- prosecutors say cops told them the incident between Ross and his girlfriend happened in Johnson County, Kansas on Oct. 23 ... after the football player allegedly found out the woman had been cheating on him.

According to the documents, the woman told cops that after Ross viewed her phone ... he got in her face, pushed her, threw her to the floor, and then began throwing objects at her. The docs say the woman was seen with "a small scratch" on her hand following the incident.

Officials say the woman also told cops Ross broke several of her items during the confrontation, including jewelry, a cell phone, a laptop and her Mercedes key.

The docs also note that two neighbors say they witnessed Ross push the woman ... as well as "run a knife across" the woman's vehicle.

According to the docs, however, Ross told cops he had thrown the woman's stuff out the door after he found out she was cheating him. He allegedly admitted to breaking a computer -- though he claimed it was his. He denied breaking anything else that belonged to the woman, the docs state.

As we reported, Ross was ultimately arrested over the allegations and charged with one count of domestic battery with no priors as well as one count of criminal damage of less than $1,000. He pleaded not guilty to the charges at a hearing on Oct. 24. He's due to appear before a judge once again on Dec. 4.

As for his football career, he was placed on the Commissioner's Exempt List on Oct. 27, which means he's not currently allowed to play in games or practice with the Chiefs ... though he can still attend meetings and get any necessary medical treatment while his criminal case plays out.

Travis Kelce didn't seem to be too keen on answering questions about Taylor Swift while out in Germany on Friday ... especially when the inquires turned to whether or not he was "in love" with his new girlfriend.

Kelce sat down with media members out in Frankfurt to preview the Chiefs' Sunday international game against the Dolphins ... when suddenly, one reporter began prodding the tight end about his latest romantic partner.

First, the journalist wanted a relationship update ... which Kelce kind of gave.

"The latest status is I got to see her last week," he said with a smile. "That's the latest status right there."

Then, the questioner asked straight up, "Are you in love?"

Kelce, however, dodged the question like it was a linebacker in the middle of a football field.

"I'm going to keep my personal relationship personal," he said.

The Swift questions didn't end there, though ... because just before Kelce got off the podium, one reporter wanted to know if Swift would be in attendance for the big game against Miami at Deutsche Bank Park.

But, as he did with the previous questions, Kelce sidestepped the inquiry as well.

Of course, we shoulda seen this one coming ... after all, Kelce promised a few weeks ago he was going to keep his relationship with Taylor a little more under wraps -- and while he's bent the rules here and there, it seems he's done now.

Travis Kelce no parecía muy dispuesto a responder preguntas sobre Taylor Swift, en  su paso por Alemania este viernes, especialmente cuando las preguntas apuntaron a si estaba o no "enamorado" de su nueva novia.

Kelce se sentó con los representantes de los medios en Frankfurt para abordar el partido internacional del domingo entre los Chiefs y los Dolphins, cuando de repente, un reportero comenzó a preguntarle sobre su último romance.

En primer lugar, el periodista quería una actualización de la relación, que Kelce más o menos le entregó.

"El último estado es que fui a verla la semana pasada", dijo con una sonrisa. "Ese es el último estado, ahí mismo".

Entonces, el reportero le preguntó directamente: "¿Estás enamorado?".

Kelce, sin embargo, esquivó la pregunta como si fuera un linebacker en medio del campo.

"Voy a mantener mi relación personal, personal", dijo.

Pero las preguntas sobre Swift no acabaron ahí porque justo antes de que Kelce se bajara del podio, un reportero quiso saber si Swift asistiría al gran partido contra Miami en el Deutsche Bank Park.

Pero como lo hizo con el resto del interrogatorio, también eludió la pregunta.

Por supuesto, debimos haberlo previsto, después de todo, Kelce prometió hace unas semanas que iba a mantener su relación con Taylor un poco más en secreto, y aunque ha flexibilizado las reglas de vez en cuando, parece que ahora sí dejará de hacerlo.

Tennessee Titans star Treylon Burks was strapped to a backboard and carted off the field after suffering a scary injury during Thursday night's game ... but, thankfully, he now appears to be doing OK.

The terrifying moment happened late in the fourth quarter of Tennessee's tilt with the Steelers in Pittsburgh ... when Burks attempted to make a circus catch to keep a late-game Titans drive alive.

The 23-year-old jumped up for the ball, grabbed it with two hands ... but when he came crashing to the grass, it slipped from his grasp as his head and neck slammed violently into the ground.

Burks lay motionless for several moments ... before trainers and medical personnel rushed to stabilize him.

The wide receiver -- a former first-round pick -- was eventually taken to the locker room ... where Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said he was showing positive signs of recovery.

"He's alert, moving," Vrabel told reporters after the game. "I'll have more of an update hopefully tomorrow, but he's back there being evaluated. But, I would say that the way it looked -- it's probably better than how it looked."

BMW's ready to come-a-knockin' for Kroy Biermann's luxury whip ... the company's asking a judge to let it take back a Rolls-Royce he allegedly hasn't paid for in over a year.

According to the new docs, obtained by TMZ, Kroy failed to respond to BMW within the allotted time ... after the company filed, months ago, for a writ of possession. That's legal-ese for ... we're ready to repo the damn car!

With Kroy going radio silent, BMW wants the judge to give 'em the green light to get the car back from the former NFL linebacker.

TMZ broke the story, BMW sued Kroy in June for allegedly missing his lease payments on the $400,100 luxury SUV.

The docs claimed he owed $5,297.64 per month from July 2020 to July 2023 -- totaling a whopping $190,715.04 -- but the company says his last payment was in September 2022.

Don't forget, the repo request comes as Kroy and Kim Zolciak are deep in the hole financially amid their messy divorce.

The 2 recently asked a judge to push pause on the foreclosure of their mansion -- adding the scheduled November 7 auction going through will mean they will suffer "irreparable injury to the marital estate depleting it in its entirety."

Ja'Marr Chase could look more like Ja'Marr Uno this weekend ... 'cause after striking an agreement with Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson this week -- he's promised to recreate one of the Bengals legend's epic touchdown celebrations!!

The deal was consummated on Thursday afternoon ... after the Cincinnati superstar initially offered it to Johnson during his media availability earlier in the day.

Chase told reporters if the former Bengals wideout would pay the fine, he'd go and grab a broadcast camera after scoring a TD just like Johnson did nearly 16 years ago.

And, it didn't take for Johnson to shake on the pact ... because just minutes after he became aware of Chase's words, he tweeted out, "Say less I’ll pay the fine."

Chase, of course, will now have to find the endzone against the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night in order to try to duplicate the celly ... though it shouldn't be too hard for him, considering the tear he's currently on.

Chase has recorded 31 catches in his last three games ... and he's scored four times in that time frame as well.

Ex-NFL quarterback Ryan Leaf believes he wouldn't be where he is today if it weren't for Matthew Perry ... crediting the late "Friends" star with playing a pivotal role in his sobriety.

Leaf -- who's approaching 12 years clean after battling drug and alcohol addiction in the past -- poured his heart out about his friend on his "Straight Line" podcast with PointsBet this week ... just days after 54-year-old Perry was found dead at his L.A.-area home.

The former No. 2-overall pick kicked off his tribute by stating Perry was "instrumental in my recovery" ... before going into detail about how the actor offered his support without hesitation over a decade ago.

"I got out of prison and when I got to Los Angeles, Matt put his arm around me immediately," Leaf said. "And he carried me for like, the first six months probably in Los Angeles, trying to learn how to be a sober person really in a public platform."

"I don't know if I’m here right now, being able to do stuff like this -- or anything -- if it weren’t for him, and him sharing his story and making me understand that you can be a guy in the public eye that everyone knows and still be sober, be humble and be about helping other people."

Leaf explained even as Perry dealt with his own drug, alcohol and mental health issues over the years, he didn't ever leave his side and continued to assist in the athlete's sobriety.

The 47-year-old said his takeaway from the tragedy is Perry was so much more than a TV star -- he was a guy who wanted to help others, and that's how he will remember him.

"There's a lot of people that I owe for the life I now have, get to live ... and he's certainly at the top of that," Leaf said.
