Karamo had some luggage with him ... and it appears Jussie was hanging back in L.A.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are pulling out all the stops for their high-security wedding celebration at Madison Square Garden, where money is clearly no object ... but some local businesses feel they're getting robbed.

TMZ talked to bar and restaurant owners around MSG ... and they all agreed this week's upcoming wedding events will likely hurt their bottom line -- some more than others.

One business owner on West 31st Street is livid ... telling TMZ it's unacceptable for streets to be closed near MSG because it will prevent folks from coming in for what would have normally been a busy weekend if Taylor wasn't getting married.

There are World Cup games on a holiday weekend for America's 250th birthday ... which should be big money makers for bars and restaurants ... and this owner says they're trying to get in touch with someone, anyone, connected to Taylor to explain how f-d up the situation is.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding has all eyes on Madison Square Garden ... and city officials are keeping an eye on everything around it ... including people who live on the streets.

A NYC official with direct knowledge tells TMZ ... the Department of Homeless Services will deploy a "significant force" around the MSG and Penn Station area from July 2 through July 4, sending far more outreach workers than usual into the neighborhood.

We're told the increased presence isn't about clearing the area for Taylor and Travis Kelce's wedding festivities. Instead, it's driven by the dangerous heat expected to blanket New York ... with temperatures forecast to climb into the 90s -- and possibly hit 100 degrees.

"Malcolm in the Middle" star and NASCAR driver Frankie Muniz is racing away from the married life ... he says he's separated from his wife and moving forward with ending their marriage.

Frankie announced his split from Paige Price in a social media post Wednesday, saying ... "After 10 beautiful years together, we've grown in ways that made us realize our relationship feels most natural and strong as a deep friendship and as co-parents."

Frankie adds ... "I'm endlessly grateful to Paige for everything she's done for me and our family. She has put her own dreams on hold so I could chase mine, and she was always my biggest supporter."

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce won't have any bad blood between hangry patrons at their wedding this weekend ... because food for the event was just delivered ... and it's everything you could want at an intimate rehearsal dinner and 1,000+ person party.

Boxes are being rolled off a truck at Madison Square Garden as we speak ... and, thankfully, they're labeled -- so we can tell you everything the guests can sample.

We saw pounds of lobster meat being wheeled in ... and that's not all.

According to pics taken by Page Six ... chicken prepared multiple ways -- blackened, boneless and skinless breasts and legs -- french fries, thick-cut onion rings, peppers, romaine, eggs, heavy whipping cream and whole milk were delivered.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce aren't just throwing a wedding ... they're building what looks like the grand opening of a private amusement park.

The latest addition ... a giant piece of equipment rolled into Madison Square Garden on Wednesday with a bright green label that reads simply ... "Golf."

TMZ has already reported on crews building a castle, hauling in massive white staircases, and delivering heaps of food as they unload truckload after truckload ... and at this point, the fairy tale wedding is starting to feel like a one-stop destination where guests can do just about everything.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding is just days away ... and the A-list appears to be descending on New York ... with Sabrina Carpenter and Ed Sheeran sparking rumors they're on the guest list.

As Taylor and Travis get closer to walking the aisle, famous faces keep popping up around the Empire State ... with Swifties treating every dinner reservation, coffee run, and street sighting like another piece of the guest list puzzle.

The latest clues? Sabrina was spotted grabbing a slice at a New York City pizzeria Tuesday night ... while Ed was seen dining with Taylor's longtime collaborator Aaron Dessner on Saratoga Lake in upstate NY.

The celebrity sightings are starting to feel less like coincidence ... and more like the wedding guest list slowly rolling in for the big day.

Looks like Jussie Smollett's new flame -- "Queer Eye" star Karamo Brown -- was with him before we confirmed their romance was official ... and Karamo was already laying it on thick.

Jussie performed Saturday at Harlem Pride Parade ... and the person who announced him on stage was none other than Karamo himself!

Take a look at the video ... before Jussie's performance, Karamo introduces him, saying he's "a man that I respect, that I love deeply, that is extraordinary ... extremely handsome, talented, amazing."

You'd omit some of those words if you were just friends with someone ... but that clearly isn't the case for Karamo and Jussie.

Karamo Brown thinks he's found the love of his life ... and it's Jussie Smollett!!!

The "Queer Eye" star gushed over his new boo on Carlos King's "Reality With The King" podcast ... saying a wedding is definitely in the cards here.

Karamo said of Jussie ... "I do believe this is going to be my husband. I believe this is going to be my forever person."

Look what she made him do! Taylor Swift's Madison Square Garden wedding is taking shape ... and one worker was bold enough to wear some vintage Taylor gear on the job.

Check out this forklift driver sporting a "Taylor Swift Carpenters" tee while operating a forklift at MSG ... the shirt appears to be same one given to crew on her 2011 "Speak Now" world tour.

The vintage tee is sparking all kinds of questions ... did Taylor hand him the shirt for this job, did her work on her tour, or is the guy just a full-blown Swiftie?

Taylor Frankie Paul's mom is going to bat for her in her custody battle with her ex, Tate Paul ... blasting Tate for trying to keep Taylor's children away from their mother.

Liann May took a shot at Tate on social media ... saying he knows darn well Taylor's a great mother, and keeping her kids away from her only hurts the children.

Taylor's mama says her grandkids "LOVE their mommy more than anyone or anything in this world."

Travis Kelce is getting his cardio in before heading down the aisle ... hitting the streets of New York City for a solo run ahead of wedding weekend with Taylor Swift.

TMZ obtained a photo of the Kansas City Chiefs star jogging through Tribeca on Tuesday, working up a serious sweat as he made his way through the neighborhood.

Call it the "runaway groom" ... but don't worry, Travis wasn't running from the altar.

Taylor Swift is one step closer to saying "I do" ... literally.

TMZ obtained video of a giant white staircase being craned into Madison Square Garden -- and at first glance, it looks like it could be another piece of the fairytale castle set being built for her wedding to Travis Kelce.

By now, it's clear Taylor didn't just rent out MSG -- she rented a blank canvas. The iconic venue has been transformed into a giant, windowless fantasy world that's being rebuilt from the ground up.

3:18 PM PT -- TMZ obtained video of a giant white staircase being craned into Madison Square Garden -- and at first glance, it looks like it could be another piece of the fairytale castle set being built for her wedding to Travis Kelce.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding is already looking like America's answer to a royal wedding ... and now, TMZ has learned it'll even come with its own castle!

Sources close to the wedding tell TMZ ... a massive castle is being built inside a garden at MSG, with the legendary venue being transformed into a full-blown fairytale for the big July 3 wedding event.

What's more, crews were spotted unloading giant, covered scenic pieces labeled "Garden Party 1 (Scenic)" and spray-painted "GP" outside the venue ... all arriving, fittingly, at Madison Square GARDEN!!😱

Madison Square Garden is disappearing behind layers of fabric ... all in the name of Taylor Swift's fairy tale wedding.

Sources connected to the wedding setup tell TMZ ... the event crew got to work Monday, and nearly all of the effort so far has gone into draping the entire arena. We're told workers have been tirelessly hanging fabric from the ceiling and even wrapping the perimeter of the arena floor as they build out Taylor and Travis Kelce's vision.

The makeover is so extensive, sources say it's become clear Taylor didn't simply rent MSG -- she rented a giant, windowless space she could completely reinvent. In fact, we're told guests will walk inside and quickly forget they're even in the world-famous arena.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce don't want the red carpet rolled out for them for their wedding event at Madison Square Garden ... they want purple carpet instead, even if workers have to start from scratch.

The color change is underway right now at Madison Square Garden, where workers are pulling up the red carpet they laid down earlier today on a set of stairs outside the arena.

Our photog took this video and was told the carpet is supposed to be purple, not red ... hence the frantic change.
