Couples

Backstreet Boys singer AJ McLean is starting fresh in the new year ... he says he's getting divorced after previously separating from his wife.

AJ and Rochelle DeAnna McLean just released a joint statement on social media, announcing their plans to divorce.

The estranged couple says ... "As you all know we have been separated for over a year now. While we have hoped for reconciliation we have decided to officially end our marriage."

AJ and Rochelle continue ... "It is with deep love and respect that we have made this decision. Our focus now is moving forward in the healthiest way possible with friendship and co-parenting our girls at the forefront of this next chapter."

TMZ broke the story ... AJ and Rochelle told us back in March 2023 they were "temporarily" separating to work on themselves and their marriage. At the time, they told us they were planning to come back together.

In the wake of the separation, AJ told us he was using the time apart to work on his own demons and become a better version of himself.

Sounds like there will be no reconciliation though ... and it will be interesting to see who files divorce docs first.

AJ and Rochelle got hitched back in 2011 after 6 years of dating ... with his Backstreet Boys crew attending their wedding at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce started 2024 off with a bang ... or at least a steamy kiss in a now-viral video sweeping social media.

The songstress and the NFL star grabbed each other at midnight with Taylor wrapping her arms around Travis' neck and pulling him in close for a smooch.

While partygoers around them noticed the two going at it, the happy couple seemed too preoccupied with one another to care.

It's not clear exactly where the lovebirds rang in the New Year, but it's likely they stuck around Kansas City after Travis' game against the Bengals.

As we previously reported ... T-Swift pulled up to Arrowhead Stadium solo Sunday afternoon to cheer on her beau, a common occurrence these days.

Taylor has become a staple at Chiefs games since she and Travis went public back in September. She's even traveled to the frigid Northeast to take in a couple games this season.

As for what the pair's plans for the new year might be, that's anyone's guess. We know Taylor and Travis wanted to spend the holidays together after being apart for Thanksgiving, and T-Swift's got shows in Japan coming up in February.

In the interim though, Tayvis seems content on enjoying their time together ... and each other's mouths as well.

Taylor Swift está terminando el año viendo a su novio, Travis Kelce, jugar al fútbol, cerrando un año lleno de emociones tanto en el escenario como en el campo de juego.

La estrella del pop estuvo una vez más en el estadio Arrowhead el domingo para ver a los Chiefs de Travis jugar un último partido en casa contra los Bengalíes de Cincinnati y como ya es tradición, se pudo ver a la cantante en el palco vip.

Parece que estaba sola esta vez, mientras que la semana pasada estuvo acompañada por su madre y su hermano, quien se unió a ella para el gran juego de Navidad en la ciudad.

Swift se veía muy elegante para el partido. Vestía de negro y lucía una chaqueta blanca Chiefs letterman mientras se dirigía a las gradas. Es evidente que va a pasar el Año Nuevo allí en Kansas City.

Como dijimos, Taylor asistiendo a los juegos se ha convertido en algo común este año, desde que ella y Travis hicieron pública su relación hacia el comienzo de la temporada, ha ido en persona a verlo varias veces e incluso en ciudades totalmente diferentes.

Taylor ha sido vista gritando por su hombre, ya sea maldiciendo por una mala decisión o celebrando con apretones de manos.

Mientras que ella y Travis se separaron brevemente durante el Día de Acción de Gracias -cuando ella viajó a Brasil para algunos shows como parte de su gira "Eras"- han pasado la mayor parte de las vacaciones juntos. Por lo que parece podría tratarse de una relación seria.

Por el lado de la NFL, podemos decir que la liga los ha amado como pareja, especialmente cuando Taylor aparece en persona, ¡ya que las audiencias se han disparado en la mayoría de sus juegos!

Algunos fans acérrimos de fútbol se han mostrado algo molestos con la atención Taylor comandos - pero bueno, es entretenimiento al final del día ... y aquí es donde los mundos chocan por grandes $$$.

De todos modos, es bastante seguro decir que ella probablemente ha tenido el año más grande de cualquier persona en el mundo del espectáculo.

Taylor Swift is ending the year watching her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, play football -- capping off what's been a whirlwind romance full of memories ... not to mention NFL appearances.

The pop star was once again in the building at Arrowhead Stadium Sunday to catch the K.C. Chiefs play one last home game against the Cincinnati Bengals ... and just like she usually does, she rolled up in a golf cart down below and made her way to her luxury box suite.

Looks like she was cruising solo this time around, whereas last week ... she had some company in her mom and brother, who joined her for the big Christmas game there in town.

T-Swift was looking pretty stylish here for the NYE matchup ... dressed in all black, aside from a sweet white Chiefs letterman jacket she was rocking as she made her way up to the stands. If it wasn't obvious by now, she'll be spending New Year's there in Kansas City.

Like we said, Taylor attending games has become a bit of a pastime this year -- ever since she and TK went public with their relationship toward the start of the season ... she's gone in person to watch him several different times, and sometimes in totally different cities too.

At each stop, Taylor has been seen rooting and screaming her heart out for her man ... oftentimes memorably, whether it's cursing at a bad call or celebrating with handshakes.

While she and Travis were apart for a bit during Thanksgiving -- when she jetted on down to Brazil for a few shows as part of her 'Eras' tour -- they've spent the majority of the holidays together ... and their bond is going strong. From the looks of it, this could be the real deal.

From the NFL side ... you best believe the league has loved them as a couple, especially when Taylor shows up in person. The ratings have ballooned at most of her games ... as she seems to have drawn in a whole new audience who might've otherwise not watched.

Some diehard football fans have become annoyed with the attention Taylor commands -- but hey, it's entertainment at the end of the day ... and this is where worlds collide for big $$$.

Anyway, it's pretty safe to say she's probably had the biggest year out of anyone in showbiz.

El nuevo presidente de Argentina es un tipo duro, pero no tanto como su novia, con la que estuvo acariciándose y besándose en el escenario delante de todo el mundo... y todo quedó en video.

Javier Milei aterrizó el viernes en la ciudad de Mar de Plata para asistir a la obra de teatro en vivo de su novia, la actriz Fátima Flórez, que al parecer se llama como ella, "Fátima 100%". El presidente se subió al escenario mientras la gente estaba aplaudiendo y felicitó a la actriz él mismo.

Después de lanzar un discurso sobre los tiempos difíciles que Argentina está a punto de entrar en el arranque de su presidencia -que acaba de comenzar a finales de este año- besó Fátima apasionadamente.

Empezaron con un simple besito, pero rápidamente la cosa se puso caliente. La multitud podía verlo todo y los vitoreaba y silbaba. Una vez que terminaron, Fátima dijo unas palabras, agradeciendole a su novio para posteriormente salir con él del lugar.

No es la primera vez que la pareja se muestra así de cariñosa en público, de hecho suelen hacerlo siempre, lo que concuerda con la personalidad de Javier en general, un poco salvaje.

Su victoria presidencial fue vista como un cambio de juego, pero sobre todo porque es un poco como Donald Trump, en que su objetivo es desregular gran parte del gobierno de Argentina y el anillo en una nueva filosofía económica. Básicamente, él quiere hacer Argentina autosuficiente y magra.

Él cree que ya está en camino de hacer precisamente eso, hace unas semanas, devaluó la moneda de Argentina por la friolera de 50%... Javier dice que esto va a ayudar a estabilizar su economía a futuro.

Argentina's new president is a handful, but not nearly as much as his hot girlfriend -- who he was feeling up and locking lips with onstage in front of everyone ... and it's all on video.

Javier Milei touched down Friday in the city of Mar de Plata to catch his actress GF Fátima Flórez's live play -- which is apparently named after her, "Fatima 100%." Anyway, afterward ... the prez hopped onstage while people were applauding, and congratulated her himself.

After launching into a speech about the hard times Argentina is about to enter as he kicks off his presidency -- which just started late this year -- he smooched Fátima ... passionately.

They started with just a peck ... but quickly launched into full-blown tongue wars, showing off a ton of PDA to the crowd as they cheered and whistled. Once they were done, Fátima said a few words of her own, thanking her BF and then leaving with him shortly afterward.

This ain't the first time the couple has shown affection in public like this -- they actually tend to do it all the time ... which jibes with Javier's personality in general, AKA a lil' wild.

His presidential victory was seen as game-changing -- but mostly because he's a bit like Donald Trump, in that he's aiming to deregulate much of Argentina's government and ring in a new economic philosophy. Basically, he wants to make Argentina self-sufficient and lean.

He thinks he's already on course to do just that ... a few weeks ago, he devalued Argentina's currency by a whopping 50% -- which Javier says is going to help stabilize their economy.

Mariah Carey now has a golden receipt to prove she's the Queen of the XMAS holidays ... she shut down Gucci!!!

MC was in Aspen -- solo as you know -- as she rolled past the fancy stores on the main drag in her Sprinter van.

Her entourage at the ready, Mariah hopped out and entered the store, but to make her experience more comfortable, the Gucci honchos locked the doors so she could shop without distraction.

Gucci may have had good reason to batten down the hatches ... a gaggle of gawkers peered through the windows to get a look at the singer.

Some customers were already inside the store when Mariah arrived in her long dress, sunglasses earmuffs ... and notably, without her longtime boyfriend, Bryan Tanaka, who recently broke his silence on the couple's split.

Witnesses tell us Mariah was chill as she casually checked out the items on display with her handlers all around her, including a bodyguard. It's unclear if she bought anything.

What a scene! Mariah knows how to draw a crowd and steal the show ... even in a city that's now packed to the gills with celebs.

Selena Gomez is making sure everyone who's a little slow on the uptake understands ... she's with Benny so get used to it.

SG posted another photo of her and Benny Blanco, snuggling and looking very much in love as they pose in front of an ocean. Not sure where they are, but it looks beautiful.

Selena has been taking fire from fans who think Benny's a downgrade from Justin Bieber, Taylor Lautner, The Weeknd and Nick Jonas -- all her exes.

Selena's response ... she will never date "a f*** boy again."

Gomez and Blanco have been dating for a while now ... at least since her birthday in late July, although they didn't go public until early this month.

Benny's been treated unfairly, if you ask us. He's a successful music producer with credits that include "Moves Like Jagger" and Rihanna's "Diamonds," not to mention Katy Perry's "Teenage Dreams."

Jill Biden isn't pumping the brakes on her SoulCycle obsession anytime soon -- surprising spin enthusiasts in L.A. by dropping into an early morning class for those much-needed endorphins.

Sources tell TMZ the First Lady's suited and booted Secret Service agents arrived first to the trendy cycling chain's 7 AM class in Brentwood earlier this month ... wanding down everyone and informing them a VIP would be in class.

Upon entering, Jill settled onto bike no. 42 -- at the back, right by the Secret Service team at the entrance ... just in case she needed to make a speedy escape.

There was no theme for this SC class, though we're told at one point they rode to Janet Jackson's "Escapade" ... and Jill was, noticeably, in great shape.

She even appeared to make a friend ... fist-bumping a boy riding in front of her at the end of class, but there were no photos due to SC's no-phones-in-studio policy.

Jill attended the class in the middle of a jam-packed weekend of fundraising events with President Biden -- probably hoping for some me-time, as she's previously credited the spin classes for helping her find her "inner strength so she can be strong for everyone else."

Jill Biden no está poniéndole freno a su obsesión con SoulCycle en el corto plazo, sorprendiendo a los entusiastas del spinning de Los Ángeles tras aparecer en una clase temprano para liberar esas tan necesarias endorfinas.

Fuentes le dicen a TMZ que los agentes del Servicio Secreto de la Primera Dama llegaron primero a la clase de la popular cadena de ciclismo a las 7 AM, en Brentwood a principios de este mes. Se dice que agitaron a todo el mundo y les informaron que una persona VIP estaría en la clase.

Al entrar, Jill se acomodó en la bicicleta número 42 -en la parte posterior-, justo al lado del equipo del Servicio Secreto en la entrada, por si necesitaba hacer una huida rápida.

No había un tema particular para esta clase de SoulCycle, aunque nos dicen que en un momento dado montaron al ritmo de "Escapade", de Janet Jackson, y Jill estaba notablemente en gran forma.

Incluso parece que hizo un amigo, tras chocar los puños con un niño que estaba montado delante de ella al final de la clase, pero no hay fotos de ellos, debido a la política de la cadena de no usar teléfonos en el estudio.

Jill asistió a la clase en medio de un ocupado fin de semana con eventos de recaudación con el Presidente Biden, probablemente con la esperanza de tener algo de tiempo para ella. Previamente, ha dicho que las clases de spin la ayudan a encontrar su "fuerza interior para ser fuerte para todos los demás."

These A-listers have been dishing out some sweet smooches over the past year ... so take a look back at these stars locking lips as you kiss 2023 goodbye!

Power couples Justin & Hailey Bieber, David & Victoria Beckham, and Shaun White & Nina Dobrev are just a few of the pairs of lovebirds who have shared snaps of themselves smooching up a storm for the camera.

Gymnast Simone Biles did the same with her boo, Jonathan Owens ...  as did 'Bachelor' star Wells Adams and his "Modern Family" wife Sarah Hyland -- lookin' like a couple of lovers in paradise!

Singer Hayley Kiyoko couldn't keep her lips off "Bachelor" star Becca Tilley ... taking time out of their snowy retreat to show each other some love!

Las estrellas más famosas se han estado besando durante el último año, ¡así que echa un vistazo a estas celebridades mientras te despides del 2023!

Las parejas Justin y Hailey Bieber, David y Victoria Beckham y Shaun White y Nina Dobrev son solo algunas de las parejas de tortolitos que han compartido fotos de sí mismos dándose besos frente a la cámara.

La gimnasta Simone Biles hizo lo mismo con su novio, Jonathan Owens, al igual que la estrella de "Bachelor", Wells Adams, y su esposa de "Modern Family", Sarah Hyland, ¡parecen una pareja de amantes en el paraíso!

La cantante Hayley Kiyoko no pudo mantener sus labios alejados de la estrella de "Bachelor", Becca Tilley, ¡dejando tiempo de su retiro nevado para demostrarse su amor!

Travis Kelce dice que alguien en el mundo de Taylor Swift fue quien ayudó a contactarlos por primera vez, sugiriendo fuertemente que alguien de su propia familia ayudó.

El tight end de los Chiefs hizo una nueva entrevista con WSJ, y hay algunas novedades sobre su relación con la estrella del pop que no sabíamos hasta ahora, como por ejemplo, cómo fue capaz de entrar en contacto con ella.

Él ya había detallado la historia del concierto en Kansas City en julio, en el marco de su gira "Eras", en la que él intentó jugarse una oportunidad, lo que de alguna manera llegó a oídos de ella poco después. Ahora Travis se está abriendo un poco más sobre la secuencia exacta de los acontecimientos.

Dice, de hecho, que intentó acercarse a ella en ese concierto, pero que se lo impidieron. Después, contó la historia en su podcast y al poco tiempo tuvo noticias de alguien del mundo de Taylor.

Travis explica: ¡"Definitivamente, había gente que ella conocía que sabía quién era yo, [que dijo]: "¿Sabías que iba a venir?" Yo tenía a alguien haciendo de Cupido".

Después de contar la historia en su podcast, dice que un día recibió un mensaje de texto, que el artículo describe así: "Miró hacia abajo en su teléfono y recibió el shock de su vida, con Travis añadiendo: Ella me dijo exactamente lo que estaba pasando y la suerte que tenía de tenerla para acercarse".

No está claro quién es exactamente "ella" en este caso, si se trata de la propia Taylor o un tercero, pero él continúa revelando que la gente en la familia de Tay sabía quién era él cuando Taylor estuvo en Arrowhead para su show de este verano y que sus primos pequeños tomaron fotos en frente del casillero de Travis.

Trav continúa diciendo que tuvieron su primera cita en Nueva York, y que ya habían estado hablando para entonces, por lo que no estaba tan nervioso. También dice que era extra cauteloso en un principio de que se hiciera pública su relación porque no quería que Taylor se distanciara, valoraba su privacidad.

Su madre también es citada en el artículo, quien dice que nunca había visto a Travis tan feliz, así que... están locos el uno por el otro. Pero en resumen, parece que alguien cercano a Taylor hizo el contacto en su nombre.

Ahora, no está claro quién exactamente podría haber hecho algo así por ella. No sabemos muy bien quién estaba presente en su parada en Kansas City, o que podría haber oído o visto los comentarios en el podcast de Travis.

Una cosa que sabemos es que su hermano, Austin, es un fan del deporte, y estuvo en el juego del lunes de la semana pasada vestido de Santa. Más tarde le regaló a Travis Kelce una copia VHS de "Pequeños Gigantes".

Ben Affleck is playing chauffeur for the missus on their tropical end-of-year vacay -- driving Jennifer Lopez around in a teeny tiny vehicle that he definitely looks too big to be in.

Hubby was behind the wheel Friday in a Mini Moke -- which is basically a toy Jeep for adults -- while cruising around St. Barts with his wife riding passenger ... and like we said, BA seems to be a bit crammed in there, even though Jen's enjoying the ride.

They were out enjoying the day in the capital of Gustavia ... where we're told they hit up Arawak Cafe for a bite, and later did some shopping at Jacques Zolty (a perfume store) and Bulgari (a jewelry shop) while perusing the town.

Of course, they were shoulder to shoulder for their stroll -- with Ben wrapping Jen up tight.

Earlier in the week, J Lo was spotted out on the beach in a bikini -- where her toned body was on display. No sign of Ben there -- but the dude was front and center in the streets.

Ben Affleck está haciendo de chófer para su mujer en sus tropicales vacaciones de fin de año, llevando a Jennifer López en un diminuto vehículo en el que definitivamente se ve demasiado grande en comparación al auto.

El marido estaba al volante de un Mini Moke el viernes, que es básicamente un Jeep de juguete para adultos, mientras paseaba por St. Barts con su esposa como pasajera, y como dijimos, Ben Affleck parece estar un poco apretado allí, a pesar de que Jen está disfrutando del paseo.

La pareja disfrutó el día en la capital de Gustavia, donde nos dicen que pararon a comer un bocado en Arawak Cafe y más tarde hicieron algunas compras en Jacques Zolty (una perfumería) y Bulgari (una joyería) mientras recorrían la ciudad.

Por supuesto, estaban hombro con hombro durante su paseo, con Ben envolviendo fuertemente a Jen.

A principios de semana, J Lo fue vista en la playa en bikini, en donde pudimos apreciar su tonificado cuerpo. No había rastros de Ben allí, pero el tipo estaba al frente y al centro en las calles.

Brooke Hogan is a married woman ... and has been so for over a year!!

Sources close to Brooke tell TMZ ... she tied the knot with ice hockey player Steven Oleksy June 8, 2022, in a private ceremony in Orlando, FL ... and we can also share the first-look image of the pair shortly after being pronounced husband and wife.

Brooke looks stunning in bridal white ... walking away from the altar hand-in-hand with her suited and booted new husband.

We're told it was only the 2 of them during the ceremony ... though earlier this month, they had a reception with Steven's side of the family in Michigan to celebrate.

Steven -- a professional ice hockey defenseman who played for the Washington Capitals and Pittsburgh Penguins -- slid into Brooke's heart after they met through mutual friends.

It's been a good ol' time lately for Brooke ... who's also doing great on the career front ... running her own Nashville-based interior design firm, BB Designs by Brooke.

She's also been working on new music ... releasing a new single this month called "Don't Know It Yet."
