Jason Kelce sin camiseta levanta a jóvenes fans para saludar a Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift no es eclipsada muy a menudo, pero el hermano de Travis Kelce, Jason, puede haber hecho precisamente eso en el partido del domingo, donde se mostró sin camiseta y listo para celebrar.
El centro de las Águilas -cuya temporada ha terminado después de que su equipo perdió en los playoffs la semana pasada- estaba pasando el rato con T-Swift y un montón de otros amigos y familia en una suite privada en el Highmark Stadium cuado Travis y los Chiefs se enfrentaron a los Bills de Buffalo en un gran juego.
Se podía decir que Jason estaba listo para la fiesta desde el primer momento, porque muy rápidamente perdió su camiseta y estuvo a pecho descubierto durante gran parte del juego, aplastando cervezas y rugiendo.
Por supuesto, Tay-Tay también estuvo a su lado, gritando como loca, mientras bebía con Brittany Mahomes y otras amigas, como Cara Delevingne. Por lo que se ve en las fotos de su celebración, se lo estaban pasando muy bien allí.
Ahora, en un momento en que las cosas se calmaron, algunos fans llamaron la atención de Jason -al parecer eran jóvenes swifties que querían saludar a su ídola- Jason vio esto, bajó hacia ellas (de nuevo, sin camisa) y accedió a su petición.
Cogió a las dos chicas y las llevó a la ventana, donde pudieron saludar a Taylor y a todos los que estaban dentro... Jason se limitó a hacer el papel tipo simpático que facilitó todo.
Fue un momento bastante dulce, debemos decir que el chico es bastante relajado, y así son sus padres.
Taylor, Travis y todos los demás se fueron juntos después del partido, los detalles son un poco confusos acerca de dónde fueron a celebrar, pero hay una foto dando vueltas que muestra Trav y compañía posando en una foto grupal.
Los buenos tiempos siguen rodando para esta tripulación, próxima parada, Baltimore.
Jason Kelce Lifts Young Fans to Say Hi to Taylor ... & Other Shirtless Highlights
Taylor Swift doesn't get upstaged very often -- but Travis Kelce's brother, Jason, may have done just that at Sunday's game ... where the dude was shirtless and ready to rage.
The Eagles center -- whose season is over after his team lost in the playoffs last week -- was hanging out with T-Swift and a bunch of other friends/family in a private suite at Highmark Stadium as Travis and the Chiefs took on the Buffalo Bills in a huge game.
You could tell JK was ready to party from the get-go, because pretty quickly ... he lost his shirt, and was going bare-chested through much of the game, crushing beers and roaring.
Of course, Tay-Tay was there next to him too ... screaming her head off, all while knocking back drinks with Brittany Mahomes and other gal pals in tow, like Cara Delevingne. From the looks of the photos of their celebration, they were having a damn good time in there.
Now, at one point when things settled down, some fans caught Jason's attention right below their box -- namely, young girls who apparently had some Swiftie signage they wanted to show off. Jason saw this, climbed down to them (again, shirtless) and obliged their request.
He picked both girls up and took 'em to the window, where they were able to wave hi to Taylor and everyone else inside ... and Jason was just playing everyone's cool uncle.
Pretty sweet moment, we must say ... the guy's totally comfortable, and so are the parents.
As for what Taylor, Travis and everyone else got up to after the game -- where everybody was riding high off of a nail-biting win -- there's a photo going around showing Trav and co. posing for a group pic.
The good times keep on rolling for this crew ... next stop, Baltimore. Then, maybe SB!

David Gail '90210', Soap Star Dead at 58
David Gail -- a soap opera star who acted in several episodes of "Beverly Hills, 90210" has died ... according to his sister.
The actor's sister, Katie Colmenares, shared the tragic news on Instagram Saturday ... saying she'd "hold you so tight every day in my heart" and she'd miss him "every second of every day forever" -- she did not give a cause of death.
Peter Ferriero, host of a "Beverly Hills, 90210" rewatch podcast confirmed the death as well.
Gail's got numerous credits -- including seven appearances as 'BH: 90210' where he played Shannen Doherty's character's fiancé, Stuart Carson -- but he's best known for his work in the soap opera world.
David appeared on 216 episodes of the "General Hospital" spin-off Port Charles where he played Dr. Joe Scanlon #2, according to IMDb.
A few of Gail's other credits ... "Matlock," "Murder, She Wrote," "The Round Table," "Doogie Howser, M.D.," "Perfect Opposites" and "Growing Pains." He even starred alongside Bradley Cooper in the 2002 rom-com "Bending All The Rules."
Gail was 58.

3:17 PM PT -- So far, so good on the all-important "meeting" of the sibling ... Taylor and Jason look pretty comfortable chatting -- which makes you wonder if they've maybe hung out before.
Taylor Swift's landed in Buffalo and Bills Mafia is giving her a hard time ... but the pop star seems to be taking all the jeering in stride.
TS' beau's playing in chilly upstate New York this afternoon, and her arrival at Highmark Stadium received the requisite amount of fanfare ... lots of pictures, video and a little trash talk from the other team.

One fan screams out "Bills by a billion" and Taylor seemingly blows a smooch back to him in response ... pretty dang cool response for the megastar.
Tay's basically a pro at attending Chiefs games at this point ... she's been hitting them up regularly since September and even braved frigid temperatures to watch her man's first playoff game last week -- and seemed totally enthralled with him after.
And, there's another relationship milestone Taylor's reaching tonight ... a public appearance with Jason Kelce, Travis' brother, who plays for the Philadelphia Eagles and was spotted landing in Buffalo earlier Sunday. She's already been spotted with JK's wife Kylie ... so it shouldn't be too long.
As far as we can tell ... Taylor spent a ton of time with Travis' mom, Donna, and even hung out with his dad, Ed, but she and Jason have never been spotted hanging out publicly -- which doesn't mean they haven't had a covert meeting over the last couple weeks.
Now, Chiefs fans might not be so stoked on Taylor's appearance at the game ... remember, she pulled up for the match back in December where the Bills won by just three points -- and Patrick Mahomes had something of a meltdown after the L.
Of course, Taylor didn't cause that loss by any means ... but sports fans are superstitious -- so you just know she's gonna take a lot of flak if Josh Allen's squad can pull out a win.
The game's kicking off here at 3:30 PM PT ... so grab a seat and blast "Cruel Summer" in honor of the hottest couple around!!!

Prince Harry Remembers Late Mother Princess Diana ... John Travolta Presents Him With Award
Prince Harry gave a shout-out to his late mother Princess Diana Friday night as he accepted an award in LA for his time in the British Army as a copilot and gunner.
The Duke of Sussex strolled out on stage at the "Living Legends of Aviation" event in the Beverly Hills Hilton to receive the honor from actor John Travolta, who draped a medallion necklace around Harry's neck. As you may have heard, Harry spent 10 years in the British military, ascending to the rank of Captain.
During his acceptance speech, Harry traveled back in time to Travolta's 1985 meeting with Diana at a White House dinner attended by then-President Ronald Reagan.
Harry said, “I was just a one-year-old when you danced with my mum at the White House and now look at us,” referring to Travolta.
Recalling the moment, Travolta responded, “Now I see you again under a new circumstance, on a new stage.”
Harry replied, "The only thing left to do is… not dance together but fly together," a clear reference to Travolta also being a pilot.
The two then exited the stage, presumably to make plans to go flying together.
Other “Legends of Aviation” award winners include Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Jeff Bezos, Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, Morgan Freeman and Elon Musk.

Príncipe Harry Recuerda a su madre, la princesa Diana... John Travolta le entrega un premio
El príncipe Harry recordó a su difunta madre, la princesa Diana, el viernes por la noche mientras aceptaba un premio en Los Ángeles por su tiempo en el ejército británico como copiloto y artillero.
El duque de Sussex se subió al escenario del evento "Living Legends of Aviation" en el Beverly Hills Hilton para recibir el premio del actor John Travolta, quien le colgó un medallón alrededor del cuello. Como habrán oído, Harry pasó 10 años en el ejército británico, ascendiendo al rango de capitán.
Durante su discurso de aceptación, Harry viajó en el tiempo y repasó el encuentro de Travolta con Diana en 1985, en una cena en la Casa Blanca a la que asistió el entonces Presidente Ronald Reagan.
Harry dijo: "Yo era solo un niño de un año cuando bailaste con mi madre en la Casa Blanca y ahora míranos", refiriéndose a Travolta.
Recordando el momento, Travolta respondió: "Ahora te vuelvo a ver en una nueva circunstancia, en un nuevo escenario".
Harry replicó: "Lo único que queda por hacer es... no bailar juntos, sino volar juntos", una clara referencia a que Travolta también es piloto.
Ambos salieron luego del escenario, presumiblemente para hacer planes de volar juntos.
Otros galardonados con el premio "Leyendas de la Aviación" incluyen a Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Jeff Bezos, Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, Morgan Freeman y Elon Musk.

Elisabeth Moss' dad, Ron Moss, has died ... TMZ has learned.
The actress's father passed away Thursday night in Clearwater, FL after a brief battle with an infection -- this according to his grandson, Max, the executor of Ron's estate. We're told he was surrounded by family, and that his death was peaceful.
Max writes of his granddad ... "Ron made so many friends throughout his rich life and we want everyone to know that you all meant so much to him. Thank you for everything that any of you did for him throughout his life."
Ron was a professional musician, and was a trained trombone player who played in jazz bands throughout his life ... including gigging with none other than the father of Scientology leader David Miscavige. Yes, Ron was also a Scientologist himself ... as is Elisabeth.
He actually served as a manager for some big stars over the years too -- including Chick Corea, Isaac Hayes and others. Chick is Elisabeth's godfather, interestingly enough.
While he was born and raised across the pond, he and his ex-wife, Linda, raised Elisabeth and her brother Derek here in the States ... Los Angeles specifically. While Elisabeth has posed for some shots with her dad ... it doesn't appear they were that close of late.
Unclear if Elisabeth is aware of her father's death at this point -- we've reached out to her camp for comment ... but so far, no word back. Ron was 79.

Elisabeth Moss Su padre Ron muere a los 79
El padre de Elisabeth Moss, Ron Moss, ha muerto ... TMZ ha averiguado.
El padre de la actriz falleció el jueves por la noche en Clearwater, Florida, después de una breve batalla contra una infección. Esto, de acuerdo a su nieto, Max, el albacea de la herencia de Ron. Nos dicen que estaba rodeado de su familia y que su muerte fue pacífica.
Max escribe de su abuelo: "Ron hizo tantos amigos a lo largo de su rica vida y queremos que todos sepan que significaban mucho para él. Gracias por todo lo que cualquiera de ustedes hizo por él a lo largo de su vida".
Ron era músico profesional y trombonista de formación, y tocó en bandas de jazz durante toda su vida, incluyendo actuaciones con nada menos que el padre del líder de la Cienciología, David Miscavige. Sí, Ron también era un cienciólogo, al igual que Elisabeth.
En realidad sirvió como manager de algunas grandes estrellas en los últimos años también, incluyendo Chick Corea, Isaac Hayes y otros. Chick es el padrino de Elisabeth, curiosamente.
Aunque nació y creció al otro lado del charco, él y su ex mujer Linda criaron a Elisabeth y a su hermano Derek en Estados Unidos, concretamente en Los Ángeles. Aunque Elisabeth ha posado para algunas fotos con su padre no parece que fueran tan cercanos últimamente.
No está claro si Elisabeth es consciente de la muerte de su padre en este momento. Nos pusimos en contacto con su equipo para que hicieran comentarios, pero hasta ahora no hemos tenido respuesta. Ron tenía 79 años.
Que en paz descanse.
Sofia Vergara Sued by Griselda Blanco's Estate ... Stop This Netflix Show!!!
-
Exclusive
- 421 shares
Sofia Vergara is being taken to court by Griselda Blanco's family over her new show where she plays the infamous Colombian queen-pin ... and they want to halt its release.
The actress is named as a defendant in a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, in which her adult kids -- acting as representatives of her estate -- are suing her and Netflix over what they claim is the unauthorized use of their family's image and likeness in this upcoming series.
Of course, the show features Sofia playing the late Griselda in her heyday as one of the most prominent drug lords in the world -- but now, her children are trying to prevent it from coming out next week ... running to court and asking the judge for an injunction to block its release.
The gist of their argument boils down to this ... Griselda's son, Michael, claims he'd been doing interviews for years now with some guys who were trying to get his life story -- and that of his mother -- on paper in the hopes of developing it into a production of some sort. He alleges these interviews he did with them date back to '09 all the way through 2022.
Michael claims that these fellas he was consulting with not only wanted to develop his narrative into a show, but into a book as well -- and he says they told him they'd start shopping it around Hollywood in 2016. He alleges they pitched it to a producer ... ahead of a meeting with Netflix about it. Michael claims he was then told Netflix was interested -- but that they didn't wanna use any of his details or consultations from the interviews he'd done.
Fast-forward to the present, and Michael claims he's learned this new 'Griselda' show does, in fact, lean on a lot of his anecdotes and material ... but he says he never saw a dime.
That's why he and his siblings are suing -- alleging Netflix basically ripped off their family story and weaved it into the plot of their show ... and the kids claim use of their own images and likenesses in the show without their permission violate their rights.
The lawsuit doesn't specifically say that Netflix can't depict their mother -- a public figure -- but it's clear the kids believe their likenesses and interview materials were used to make it -- presumably meaning they're depicted in the actual show in some capacity -- so they want a judge to step in ASAP to stop it.
The show is supposed to come out on Jan. 25 ... but the Blanco children wanna pump the brakes. SV is an EP on this thing BTW -- which seems to explain why she's roped in.
We've reached out to Sofia and Netflix ... so far, no word back.

Sofía Vergara Demandada por los herederos de Griselda Blanco ... Detengan ese show de Netflix!!!

Sofía Vergara está siendo llevada a los tribunales por la familia de Griselda Blanco, por un nuevo show de Netflix donde ella interpreta a la infame criminal colombiana, y los chicos quieren detener su lanzamiento a toda costa.
La actriz aparece como demandada en una nueva demanda obtenida por TMZ, en la que sus hijos adultos -actuando como representantes de su patrimonio- la demandan a ella y a Netflix, por lo que afirman que es un uso no autorizado de la imagen y semejanza de su familia en esta próxima serie.
Por supuesto, la serie presenta a Sofía interpretando a la difunta Griselda en su apogeo como una de las más prominentes capos de la droga en el mundo, pero ahora sus hijos están tratando de evitar que se estrene la próxima semana y por eso están corriendo a los tribunales y pidiendo una orden judicial para bloquear su lanzamiento.
La esencia de su argumento se reduce a esto. El hijo de Griselda, Michael, afirma que lleva años entrevistándose con unos tipos que intentan plasmar en papel la historia de su vida y la de su madre con la esperanza de convertirla en algún tipo de producción. Alega que estas entrevistas que hizo con ellos se remontan del 2009 y hasta el 2022.
Michael afirma que estos chicos no solo querían desarrollar su narrativa en un programa, sino también en un libro y dice que le dijeron que iban a empezar a ofrecerlo en Hollywood por el 2016. Alega que se lo propusieron a un productor, antes de una reunión con Netflix. Michael afirma que luego le dijeron que Netflix estaba interesado, pero que no querían usar ninguno de los detalles o consultas de las entrevistas que había hecho.
Ahora, Michael afirma que se enteró de que la nueva serie "Griselda" se basa en muchas de sus anécdotas y materiales, pero dice que nunca vio ni un céntimo de ello.
Es por eso que él y sus hermanos están demandando. Básicamente, alegan que Netflix está arrancado su historia familiar y la tejió en la trama de su show y aseguran que el uso de sus propias imágenes y semejanzas en el show sin su permiso violan sus derechos.
La demanda no dice específicamente que Netflix no puede representar a su madre, una figura pública, pero está claro que creen que sus imágenes y materiales de la entrevista fueron utilizados, lo que presumiblemente significa que están representados en el programa de alguna forma, por lo que quieren que un juez intervenga lo antes posible para detenerlo.
Se supone que la serie se estrenará el 25 de enero, pero los hijos de Blanco quieren frenarla. Por cierto, Sofía Vergara es productora ejecutiva en la serie también, lo que parece explicar por qué ella está involucrada.
Nos contactamos con Sofía y Netflix, pero hasta ahora no hemos tenido respuesta.
Kate Beckinsale BAFTA Might Not Honor My Stepdad ... During In Memoriam!!!
update
7:53 AM PT -- A BAFTA spokesperson tells TMZ ... "We were very sorry to hear of Roy Battersby’s recent passing - he was a renowned and trailblazing director. Roy Battersby was awarded the Alan Clarke Award in 1996, a BAFTA Special Television Award. We confirm he will be honoured in our forthcoming BAFTA Television Awards in May, and on the In Memoriam Section on our website."
Kate Beckinsale says the folks running BAFTA can't make any promises when it comes to honoring her late stepfather -- which she thinks is outrageous ... and she may be right.
The actress tore the British academy a new one Thursday in an IG post -- in which she alleged producers for the annual award show (basically, the UK version of the Oscars/Globes) told her the recently late Roy Battersby might not be recognized in their program.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
KB posted a pic of her stepdad receiving a lifetime achievement BAFTA award years ago for work he'd done in television across the pond, and Kate went on to air her frustration.
She writes, "Today BAFTA told me they ‘could not guarantee’ he would be included in their “in memoriam” tribute , to honour the industry members we have lost. So a man dead less than a week somehow has to audition in front of a committee after a decades long career (in which he has been awarded from said organisation the highest accolade they have) to decide IF his death is worth mentioning."
As if that wasn't scathing enough, Kate adds ... "I am paralysed ,sick and sickened and I will honour him and his work every day of my life." She went on to say her mother, Judy Loe, has been quietly battling cancer behind the scenes too ... making this perceived snub worse.
One last final dig at BAFTA from Kate ... "[T]hanks again , BAFTA for your horribly cold email." Oof, talk about honest -- something tells us Roy will make it in there after all.

Mercy Miller Master P's Son Drops 29 Points ... Beats Best Team In Cali!
"Put some respect" on Mercy Miller's name ... Master P's high school hoops star son once again proved he's one of the best basketball players in the country after defeating the top-ranked squad in California!
Mercy's coach Matt Sargeant channeled Birdman after Notre Dame's big win over #1 Harvard-Westlake, glowingly speaking about his senior guard ... “Put some respect on that name!"
“That’s an All-American player. [Mercy's] will to win is an unparallel.”
Miller dropped 29 points and grabbed 11 rebounds in the 59-54 win ... in front of a packed crowd that included Gonzaga HC Mark Few.
“I think this is definitely a statement game for our team just to show how good we are as a team and what we’re all about,” Mercy said after the game.
“We go in the gym and work hard every day so it’s definitely good to go out there and improve against one of the top teams in the country.”
Notre Dame improved to 21-0, and is 4-0 in league play.
Miller has been nearly unguardable this season. Mercy dropped 68 points during a game last month.
Just last weekend, MM scored 38, and grabbed 10 boards at ND's Senior Night at Crypto.com Arena.
Miller is a nominee for the McDonald's All-American team ... and at this rate, it's hard to imagine he won't be part of the illustrious squad.

Donald Trump Somber At Mother-in-Law's Funeral ... Skipped Trial to Attend
Donald Trump's taking a break from his legal issues to support Melania as she lays her mother to rest in Florida.
The former prez stood somber Friday morning next to his wife and their son Barron -- the whole family was dressed in Black as they attended the funeral for Amalija Knavs in Palm Beach.
Melania's dad Viktor remained glued to her side as they followed the casket out of the Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea, ready to lay Amalija in her final resting place.
It is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of my beloved mother, Amalija.
— MELANIA TRUMP (@MELANIATRUMP) January 10, 2024 @MELANIATRUMP
Amalija Knavs was a strong woman who always carried herself with grace, warmth, and dignity. She was entirely devoted to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law. We will miss her beyond…
As we previously reported ... the former First Lady announced her mother passed away last Tuesday It's not clear exactly how she died, but Trump told a crowd on New Year's Eve his mother-in-law had recently fallen "very ill."
Trump also called the night Amalija passed a very sad one for the family, while adding she "has just gone to a beautiful place in the sky. She was an incredible woman, and will be missed far beyond words!”
The leading Republican presidential candidate is clearly prioritizing his family's mourning -- he's off the campaign trail after dominating the Iowa Caucus, and also skipped the E. Jean Carroll defamation trial in NYC to be at the funeral.
One other takeaway from Thursday's service ... Barron's really grown up in recent years and is the spitting image of his father, when he was young. Check out the pics, especially the one where he's extending a hand to support Dad.
Amalija and Viktor emigrated to the U.S. years ago and became citizens in 2018. Melania and her 78-year-old mother reportedly shared a strong bond, and she'd lived part-time in the White House and recently at Mar-a-Lago.

Jay Briscoe Daughter Walks At AEW Dynamite ... 1 Year After Crash Killed Wrestling Star
Jay Briscoe was honored in an amazing way on the anniversary of his death Monday ... his daughter -- who was seriously injured in the crash that took his life 12 months ago -- showed the world she can walk again.
The powerful moment happened at AEW Dynamite -- after Jay's brother and former tag-team partner, Mark, jumped on the microphone to remember his sibling one year after the wrestling star passed away in a wreck in Delaware.
Mark started his speech by hyping up the crowd, before he remembered Jay as his "partner" and "brother." Then, he started talking about Jay's daughters.
"Man, my nieces were in the truck with him," Mark said on the mic in front of the South Carolina crowd. "Tragically, they told my oldest niece -- they were injured severely -- they told my oldest niece, 'You know, you'll never walk again.'"
But, suddenly, Gracie, Jayleigh and their brother, Gannon, walked out behind Mark -- all looking as healthy as can be.
"God is on the throne!" Mark said as his family joined him. "We Dem Boys, dammit. We won't stop, 'cause we can't stop. We ain't going nowhere!"
Jay Briscoe's Daughters Released From Hospital 1 Month After Car Crash
Mark then hugged Jay's kids -- before AEW revealed a video tribute to the late wrestler.
As we previously reported, Briscoe -- real name Jamin Pugh -- was pronounced dead on Jan. 17, 2023 after a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 veered into his lane and slammed head-on into his 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500.
He was just 38 years old.
RIP.
