TAYLOR SWIFT PROTECTS HER FRIENDS

Is the honeymoon over for Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes? The fellow WAGS bonded during football season since Taylor’s boyfriend Travis Kelce and Brit’s hubby Patrick play for the KC Chiefs. They hung out out regularly during the season but haven’t seen much of one another since the Chiefs won the Super Bowl in February. According to my source, the chill between the gals started when Brittany committed a cardinal sin and tried to friend some of Taylor’s celebrity friends (like Blake Lively) behind her back! Although it could have been an innocent faux pas on Brit’s part, Taylor didn’t like that Brit was trying to develop friendships with the A-list women in her friend squad so she’s iced her out a bit. My source is careful to point out that Taylor still likes Brit and plans to see her soon, but she’s just not a constant in her closely guarded friends group.

FRIENDS CAST IS COMMITTED TO UBER

 

Here’s an interesting gossip update.  Back in November we told you that the cast of Friends were secretly uniting for a Super Bowl ad, but the idea got scrapped after the unexpected passing of Matthew Perry.   The ad agency still liked the idea of a reunion commercial, but felt it would be too sad if the remaining cast were  all featured without Matthew. After much brainstorming, they decided to tweak the reunion idea and only feature two of the remaining Friends cast – Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer.  The concept got green-lit for an Uber Eats commercial  and our source says expect to see the other three remaining Friends in a future Uber spot, most likely to air this spring.

Kris is turning 70 on November 5, 2025 and she’s already working on the ULTIMATE birthday bash.

JENNIFER COOLIDGE HAPPENS TO BE A LOYAL FRIEND

If you were wondering what type of person White Lotus star and Emmy winner, Jennifer Coolidge is, wonder no more. Jennifer has stayed friends with her season one Lotus costar, Lukas Gage, and through him she befriended his then-husband, celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton. Jennifer was lucky enough to have Chris do her hair a few times, especially for awards season, and she LOVED the results. But Lukas’ marriage to Chris imploded and Jennifer had a real life Sophie’s Choice: she couldn’t continue her professional relationship with Chris because it would jeopardize her friendship with Lukas. In the end, Jennifer chose friendship over beauty, and even though she LOVED Chris’ talents, she didn’t want to upset Lukas since his divorce from Chris IS contentious.

THE POWER OF TAYLOR SWIFT

Not EVERYONE is happy with Taylor Swift’s blossoming romance with Travis Kelce, and one person who’s on that list is Travis’s close friend (and teammate) Patrick Mahomes. Ever since she started dating Travis, Taylor has taken Patrick’s wife, Brittany, under her wing and introduced her to her A-list pals. In a few short weeks Brittany has gone from being a stay-at-home mom and football wife to painting the town red with Taylor and her fancy friends. My source observed that Patrick isn’t exactly thrilled. Here’s why. All the girls in Taylor’s posse are accomplished in various fields, including entertainment, modeling, and entrepreneurship, and now Brittany is second guessing HER life’s goals. Since she and Patrick were high school sweethearts, she’s never gotten to do much of anything for her own career.  Being around Taylor and her group of independent women has sparked something in Brittany. My source says Patrick loves the woman he married, but fears she’s quickly morphing into someone else.

FRIENDS PROFITABLE CAST REUNION CALLED OFF

Our observant source – the same one who gave us the scoop about the Friends cast releasing a statement TOGETHER addressing Matthew Perry’s death – now shares this tidbit: The Friends cast was in top secret negotiations to reunite and film a TV commercial that was slated to air during next year’s Super Bowl. The game is being played in Las Vegas, so Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer and of course, the late Matthew, were being courted to film a 60 second commercial promoting Vegas tourism with the tagline, “Have a Friendscation.” While it wasn’t a done deal, they were set to make a few MILLION each for one day’s work, but now with Matthew’s unexpected passing, the project is a no go.

MATTHEW PERRY HAD MORE FRIENDS THAN HE REALIZED

Hollywood is working overtime trying to figure out the best way to honor the late Matthew Perry. My source reveals the current plan is to petition to get Matthew a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame – two of his Friends costars, (Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston ) have already been honored. In addition, there’s talk of bestowing upon him a posthumous honorary Emmy – he was nominated 4 times but never won. Finally, HBO and their streaming service MAX are hoping to get his remaining Friends costars to film an hour long special. My source says that one is the most complicated, because his former cast mates DO want to honor his legacy, but it’s just too soon for them to decide exactly HOW.

WHY MATTHEW PERRY’S COSTARS ON FRIENDS HAVE BEEN SILENT

Countless celebrities have taken to social media to memorialize Matthew Perry after his unexpected death at 54 on October 28. His 5 Friends costars, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer have remained silent. According to my source the tight knit group is debating whether to issue a joint statement or individual ones. My source says that the group wants to schedule their statements so they are released at the same time. It’s likely to be the SAME statement but they’re all in such a state of shock and mourning that they’re changing their plans by the moment. My source expects something will be released today…
