Taylor Swift's engagement has captured the world's attention ... but, it's taking a backseat this weekend -- 'cause she's focused on her pal Brittany's Mahomes!

The singer-songwriter was spotted in Nashville this weekend to live it up with Brittany on her 30th birthday weekend ... with new photos circulating online showing the pop star sitting down for a meal at a restaurant in the popular party locale.

Check out the pics ... they're a bit blurry, but it's certainly the music superstar sitting to Brit's left -- using a fork to dig into her meal.

5:35 PM PT -- Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson have officially touched down in Las Vegas after they were spotted together on a flight earlier on Friday.

The pair, who announced their separation earlier this year, stayed tight lipped on any possible reconciliation ... though, EJ issued a slight smile when someone declared it was good to see them out and about together.

Viva Las Vegas!!!

Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson have been separated for a while now, but there are signs of a reconciliation in the air.

Check out JS and EJ boarding a Southwest Airlines flight Friday afternoon from Burbank to Las Vegas. The first thing we thought ... maybe it's a vacay with their kids, but there were no kids in sight.

They sat next to each other on the flight -- yeah, we wondered too why they weren't flying private.

Gabby Windey is shaking what her mama gave her ... and her wife, Robby Hoffman, can't get enough, playfully patting the "Traitors" winner on the rump in a video set to go viral.

Check it out ... the ex "Bachelorette" star gets down low and twerks during an outing with her wife of 7 months. Robby gets a kick out of her lady's spicy moves, too ... joining in on the fun by slapping Gabby on the behind a number of times.

The pair are currently enjoying a little summer getaway on Fire Island in New York, with GW revealing earlier this week that the trip was actually a belated honeymoon.

India Love told TMZ Hip Hop a few weeks back that she and DDG were just "besties" ... but after seeing the attention he's getting on his 'Are You My Ball?' dating show, we're not so sure!!!

DDG has been going hard all week on Twitch livestreaming 24/7 for his most ambitious project yet ... 25 women set out to vie for the rap star's love and affection, and one even got his gov't name "Darryl" tatted on her side!!!

India crashed the stream yesterday, immediately making the other contestants feel the pressure by referring to DDG as "her moo."

Marco Donatelli has been one of the few "Love Island USA" winners to successfully stay together with his coupled-up partner ... and he tells us he's firmly in Pepe Garcia's corner -- who recently revealed to us his own 'LI' relationship is donezo.

We caught up with the twin-like island lads in Beverly Hills ... they tell us they met through the island grapevine -- Marco is the show's Season 5 winner, and Pepe was a finalist on Season 7 -- and they've been leaning on each other for support after time in the villa.

Marco and his fiancée Hannah Wright announced their engagement back in May, and he shares there aren't any locked-in wedding plans just yet ... but he's ready to get the ball rolling in the kid department.

French Montana isn't pinching his pennies when it comes to spoiling his royal bride-to-be, Sheikha Mahra ... TMZ Hip Hop can confirm he dropped more than a million dollars on the engagement ring alone!!!

NYC's Eric the Jeweler of Mavani & Co. carved out French's engagement ring after the hip hop superstar contacted him a few months ago ... and the end result is a beaut!

The ring holds an emerald-cut shape, weighing 11.53 carats. The total hand ornament price comes in at $1,050,000 ... talk about "mac wit da cheese!!!"

9:20 AM PT -- Kate Cassidy followed up her video montage for Liam Payne's birthday with a long, poignant note posted to Instagram.

In the upload, in which she shared several past photos from their time together, KC declared she would "give up years in [her] life to give [him] a few more."

Kate Cassidy is sharing a glimpse into her love story with Liam Payne ... uploading a sweet tribute on what would've been the singer's 32nd birthday.

The TikTok star shared a video montage Friday on Instagram of candid moments of herself and Liam enjoying everything from adventures abroad, to meals together, to other intimate moments.

KC said the tribute was meant to commemorate "a special day for a special soul," noting just how much she missed her former flame.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce may have forever on the horizon, but hold the housewarming ... the power couple still isn't officially living together under one roof ... TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... while Taylor and Travis each have their own digs, there's no current joint love nest on paper ... at least not yet.

Taylor's got homes in NYC, Rhode Island, Beverly Hills and Nashville, while Travis holds it down in Kansas City. So when they're with each other, sure, it’s one roof ... but still no keys with both their names on 'em.

We're told the constant jet-setting for the power couple makes a 24/7 shared roof pretty unrealistic for all 365 days of the year ... and yeah, someday they'll snag a place together ... but for now, that's not topping the priority list.

Of course, the newly engaged couple's priority list is already stacked -- from wedding planning to possible bachelor and bachelorette bashes -- and let's not forget, this all comes just days after their engagement.

Selena Gomez is showing off one of her final weekends as a single lady ... giving fans a sneak peek at her bachelorette party in Mexico.

SG took to IG to share a bunch of photos and videos from her bash in Cabo San Lucas  -- alongside a squad of gal pals, including Ashley Cook, Raquelle Stevens and Courtney Lopez.

Selena looks stunning as she poses in a series of white dresses and a bikini ... rocking a white veil reading "bride to be" in cursive.

Pepe Garcia and Iris Kendall left their love back on the island it seems ... 'cause the two are through -- although, he says he didn't cheat like the internet's suggesting.

We caught up with the "Love Island USA" star in Beverly Hills on Thursday, who just so happened to also be with season 5 winner Marco Donatelli ... and we had to ask Pepe about his relationship status after he and Iris finished fourth in the most recent season of the show.

Pepe says breakups are tough -- especially when all of show's fans have their eyes on you ... but, it's just the way this cookie crumbled it seems.

Karrueche Tran says she'd be your average jaded dater -- if it wasn't for Deion Sanders rocking her world!!!

The "Claws" actress was a guest of honor on DOPE Network via her longtime BFF's "What's Next w/ J. Ryan" podcast alongside Christina Milian -- when he threw a hot pot in her lap by putting her on the spot to tackle those Deion dating rumors.

Coach Prime survived bladder removal surgery to stop a cancerous spread back in July -- and Karrueche was spotted supporting him bedside ... sparking the notion they were an item.

When J. Ryan got Karrueche to cop to dating Deion, she confirmed her relationship is legit and she's very happy.

Karrueche -- who's publicly dated Chris Brown and Victor Cruz in the past -- says she wouldn't even waste her time if the love wasn't good.

Otherwise, she'd be a yoga-flexing housecat ... at this point in her life, Karrueche says she knows what she knows and likes!!!

Elsewhere in the episode, Christina revealed she's inching towards joining the cast of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" after being offered a spot and J. Ryan reminisced about seeing the girlies doing their makeup together, butt-naked over FaceTime.

Bruce Willis has been through ups and downs in his career ... and his wife Emma Heming's definitely seen her share of hills and valleys, too.

The actor's spouse has gone from strutting down some of the most glamorous runways in the world to starting a family with her partner ... before he received a devastating dementia diagnosis.

Here's a look at how the fashion industry figure made a name for herself ... and how she embraced her role as a caregiver after her husband began his battle with a degenerative disease.

Emma was born in Malta, and she was raised between London and Costa Mesa, California, according to her CAA profile.

Her modeling career kicked off at an early age, and she was featured in publications like Vogue, Marie Claire, and Elle, among others.

And she's spent plenty of time on the runway, as she's modeled for numerous brands -- do the names Chanel or Ralph Lauren sound familiar at all?

On top of all that, Emma's done various campaigns for Dior Cosmetics ... all in all, it's a pretty stacked resume.

Emma and Bruce first met in the late 2000s, and she later accompanied him to the premiere of his movie "What Just Happened?" at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival.

The pair moved quickly with their relationship, and she married the "Pulp Fiction" star in Turks and Caicos in March 2009.

Emma and Bruce's eldest daughter, Mabel, was born in 2012, and their second child, Evelyn, arrived two years later.

Oh, and the model's established a close friendship with her husband's ex-wife, Demi Moore, with whom he shares daughters Rumer, Tallulah, and Scout.

Emma's been around for the length of her husband's battle with dementia, and she shared a message on her Instagram account to let her followers know he'd be stepping away from his acting career to focus on his health in March 2022.

She shared another update the following February that Bruce had officially been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, a catchall term for a group of diseases affecting the areas of the brain associated with things like personality and language, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Emma's since become one of Bruce's main caregivers. She said she had "a really hard time" acclimating to the challenges presented by her husband's battle with the disease in an interview with ABC News.

She also revealed Bruce had moved into a separate home, and said he would have wanted their daughters to live in a home "more tailored to their needs" than his own.

Emma's since embarked on several ventures related to her experience of managing her husband's battle with frontotemporal dementia, and she launched a wellness supplement company, Make Time Wellness, in 2023.

She went on to start the "Make Time Podcast," where she offers tips about healthy living and personal wellness.

Selena Gomez couldn't be happier for her "bestie" Taylor Swift getting engaged to Travis Kelce ... gushing on social media to show her excitement.

The actress took to her IG story to re-share the viral shot of Travis down on one knee looking up at Taylor in a garden ... writing, "When bestie gets engaged" coupled with a heart-face emoji.

Selena chose the perfect song to match her mood ... playing Queen's "You're My Best Friend" over the pic.

Looks like love -- and Taylor Swift -- is great for merch sales ... 'cause TMZ Sports is told Travis Kelce's jerseys flew off the shelves on Tuesday after he proposed to the pop star!

Fanatics -- the official e-commerce partner of both the NFL and the Kansas City Chiefs -- said to us in a statement on Wednesday Kelce's jersey sales spiked 200% from Monday to Tuesday.

They added the tight end's big day was his best-selling one since Super Bowl LIX -- which occurred in early February.

Jenelle Evans is opening up about how she feels about 16-year-old son Jace moving out ... and she says it's a "full circle moment."

The "Teen Mom" star is responding to questions on social media, and she's getting asked a lot about Jace, who we first reported has moved out of Jenelle's Las Vegas home.

Jenelle says she's hoping Jace can change and learn to follow rules ... and in the meantime she's got two other kids at home to care for ... 11-year-old Kaiser from her ex Nathan Griffith and 8-year-old Ensley from another ex, David Eason.

Swift-mania's in overdrive ... but Taylor's ex Joe Alwyn looks like he's feeling the total opposite, 'cause he's popped up for the first time since her engagement news, rocking an outfit as blue as his mood.

TMZ got the shots ... the Brit hit the London streets Wednesday with a buddy, but couldn’t muster even a hint of a grin ... a sharp contrast to his ex, who’s now riding high on engagement bliss.

Joe -- who called it quits with Taylor after 6 years together, months before she linked up with Travis in 2023 -- clearly looks down and out. Either his buddy’s a dud in the joke department ... or Joe’s really in his feelings over Taylor’s fairy tale with Trav.
