Looking back, I think the reason the Eras Tour felt so unreal is because we genuinely never thought it was going to happen.

It wasn’t just a concert — it was the mini road trip, the Ticketmaster trauma, sitting in the passenger seat refreshing like our lives depended on it, the disbelief, the chaos, the joy. All of it.

I couldn’t even get into my body because I kept thinking, this isn’t real. That’s why I wanted to cry the whole time. It’s easily one of the highlights of my life — messy, emotional, unfiltered, and something I’ll never forget.

🍪 Crumbl Cookies has become a pop-culture dessert phenomenon, fueled by Instagram-worthy packaging, TikTok hype, and millions of followers — but beyond the viral videos, not all of the business looks sweet. A Bloomberg investigation reveals that after taking on private-equity backing from TSG Consumer Partners, many franchise owners are struggling with razor-thin margins and challenging operations. 

Franchisees told Bloomberg that high upfront investment requirements, ongoing royalty fees, and unexpected operational costs are cutting into profits — even as corporate leadership pushes rapid expansion across the U.S. Growth-focused funding can boost a brand’s footprint, but it also raises questions about sustainability and support for local owners. 🍪 📉 

Whether you love the cookies or question the franchise model, this is a real-world look at the business side of a buzzy brand — and what happens when popularity meets profitability challenges.

Taylor was literally in the 0.5% of Taylor Swift listeners this year (iconic behavior only), and honestly… if you’re streaming that hard, shouldn’t there be some kind of perk??

Like if Spotify can send us those super cute individualized videos, why can’t we ALSO cash those stats in for a presale, a ticket discount, or SOMETHING??

If you’re in the top 5%, cool.
Top 1%?? Obsessed.
But 0.5%?! Girl that should be a backstage pass. 🤷‍♀️

Imagine Taylor saying, “Hey bestie, because you listened to Cruel Summer 7,943 times, here’s first access to tickets.”

At this point, Swifties should earn loyalty points 😂

Would you support a “Spotify Fan Tier” ticket system?? Or did we just solve Ticketmaster??

➖ Still searching nearly three decades later: Investigators in the JonBenet Ramsey murder are still actively collecting and testing evidence in hopes of cracking one of the most infamous cold cases in U.S. history. 

JonBenet, then age 6, was found dead in her Boulder, Colorado home on Dec. 26, 1996, after a ransom note was left inside the house and she was reported missing. Her death was ruled a homicide by strangulation and blunt force trauma. 

Boulder Police Chief Stephen Redfearn says new interviews have been conducted, and old items have been retested with evolving forensic methods — especially around DNA — to generate new leads. An unknown male DNA profile from earlier testing still hasn’t been matched. 

Police stress the case remains open and active, and ask that anyone with possible information reach out to law enforcement. Clues and technology continue to evolve, and detectives hope that might finally lead to justice.

No matter how you feel about Whitney Levitt from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives… Broadway is a MASSIVE accomplishment.

People forget that Broadway isn’t just “showing up and performing.”
You’re live singing, acting, dancing, remembering blocking, hitting cues, reacting in real time, and doing it all in front of a live audience with zero room for mistakes. That alone deserves respect.

You don’t have to love her to acknowledge that this is huge. We genuinely hope she kills it — and selfishly… we hope Chicago comes to Chicago so we can see it 👀🎭

We’re still on the Travis & Taylor train because… like??? Isn’t it every girl’s dream to have a guy that obsessed with you?? 😭

A man who fully knows he’s the lucky one, worships the ground you walk on, and actually shows it. Travis gives “I adore my girlfriend and I’m not afraid to let the world know.”

And THEN you remember the house you’re living in is literally under Taylor Swift’s name?? Yeah… I’d be obsessed too 😂🏡✨

Tayvis is the blueprint honestly.

💔 After more than 7 years together, Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer are divorcing. The “Trainwreck” star posted on Instagram that the decision to end their marriage was mutual and amicable, stressing that they still love each other and will focus on raising their son, Gene (6).

They married in February 2018 after dating since 2017 and welcomed their boy in 2019. In her post, Schumer even quipped about online speculation — saying the split wasn’t “because I dropped some lbs… or because he’s a hot James Beard Award-winning chef.”

Sources say there’s “nothing ugly” about the split — just two people choosing a new path while keeping respect and family priorities intact. 🙏

Taylor said it perfectly: why be with someone who just tolerates you?? 😭
Bare minimum energy?? No thanks. We want someone who kinda-sorta worships us, actually likes us, and isn’t just… putting up with our existence.

And the second she said “tolerate,” my Swiftie brain IMMEDIATELY went to tolerate it. 😂

Then she tried to say “TTPD” and totally glitched mid-sentence and we just lost it. The way being a Swiftie is literally its own language.

Whitney Levitt joining Chicago on Broadway as the new Roxy is actually HUGE — and honestly, good for her. 👏

It brought us right back to the whole Dancing With the Stars situation… where everyone suddenly had a problem with her going back on Secret Mormon Wives just so she could land the DWTS opportunity.

Like… be serious. 😂
She got a chance, she took it, she did well, and she made something big out of it. Why are we pretending anyone else wouldn’t do the exact same thing??

A win is a win. And she’s literally dancing her way to Broadway soooo maybe the strategy worked 🤷‍♀️

Okay wait… how is Tate McRae not anywhere on Spotify’s Top 10 list?? She literally just wrapped a tour (world tour?? pretty sure!!) and her songs are always charting, all over TikTok, and everyone is doing her dances 😭

AND if we’re talking numbers—what about Morgan Wallen?? Regardless of how you feel about him (valid), he’s basically the #1 country artist right now.

AND THEN—Post Malone. Like how is Post not there either?!

I get that charts are based on global numbers but it still feels soooo wild when certain artists are EVERYWHERE and then somehow not listed 💀

Who shocked you the most??

Originally I was actually surprised Drake landed at 4… but after the year he had with that entire beef situation 👀 yeah… suddenly it tracks.

Also—remember when Drake literally had fake abs?! Because now that’s all I can picture 😂

But what REALLY shook us is Ariana Grande being #8. Like… after Wicked, the deluxe Eternal Sunshine, the press, the performances, the entire year?? I would’ve honestly put her above Billie.

And even THEN Billie winning best tour over Taylor??? That was wild too 😭

Have your opinions changed after seeing Spotify’s top 10 or are we just dramatic?? (Probably both.)

11/12/2025

Travis Kelce saying he and Taylor have never had an argument… honestly? I kinda believe it 😭

Like when two people already have such solid, stable lives — personally AND career-wise — there’s just way less to fight about. Most couples argue over finances, stress, or insecurity… and these two? They’re literally unbothered and booked.

Not saying they’ve never had little tiffs (everyone does!), but I highly doubt they’re sitting there having blowout arguments. Their lives are too aligned, too stable, too secure.

Honestly… it makes sense why they just look happy.
Thoughts??
