Bill Maher is predicting Travis Kelce will ‘dump’ Taylor Swift. Maher called Swift “tacky” for singing about her past relationships. “I’m sure she’s a lovely person, but the whole thing with the football player. I just felt like 35 was a little old to be like, ‘My boyfriend’s a football player and I wear his jersey to the game with his number on it!’…Bill Maher is getting BLASTED online from Swift fans…

Luke Combs and Garth Brooks sat down recently and talked about the current state of Country music. Luke said Country has a little bit of everything now, quote, “You can have the trap beat and the acoustic songwriter Zach Bryan thing and they’re both doing stadium shows.” Doesn’t make it country….

Move over HGTV, Church is coming in hot!

Ella Langley just showed up and chose violence—with eight ACM noms to her name! Right behind her? Cody Johnson, Morgan Wallen, and Lainey Wilson with seven each. Oh, and Reba’s hosting, so you know we’re gettin’ sass, sparkle, and possibly a rhinestone mic drop. May 8 on Prime Video—yeehaw, y’all!

Chris Rock is not laughing—again. Word is, he’s ticked at Will Smith for milking that Oscars slap in his new music. Chris says Will’s still “arrogant and self-serving.” Honestly? Hard agree. Will’s trying to rebrand like we forgot—but we remember, sir. We remember.

Ryan Coogler is on fire right now—his horror-musical Sinners just crushed the box office, and next up? A reboot of The X-Files! He says it’s “immediately next” on his to-do list and yes—he’s already talked to the iconic Gillian Anderson. Quote: “She’s incredible.
