This feels like the first time in years that I?ve seen Taylor Swift in bike shorts, a slouchy t-shirt, sneakers and a baseball cap. Throughout this year, she struts around New York in heels, minis and other cute ensembles. She?s the queen of street style and one of the nicest things about Taylor is that she gets ?dressed up? to leave her house. It does look like Taylor dressed with purpose though her t-shirt is from Free People, and it?s the Shania Twain ?Any Man of Mine? tee. Her sneakers are New Balance and she carried a Louis Vuitton purse.
These are pics of Taylor coming and going from the Electric Lady studio in NYC. The woman with her is Keleigh Sperry, aka Miles Teller?s wife. Miles and Taylor worked together a few years ago when he was cast in the music video for Taylor?s ?I Bet You Think About Me.? Taylor has been in and out of the Electric Lady all year, recording new music and re-recording 1989 (Taylor?s Version). She uses it as a social club too, inviting her friends to hang out at the studio and listen to her record. But where?s Travis Kelce? Well, even if Travis isn?t around constantly, he and Taylor are apparently quite smitten with each other:
Despite being one of the most famous women in the world, Taylor Swift ?was low-key and low-maintenance? as she watched Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce help his team defeat the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Sunday, October 1, an insider exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly. The source adds that Swift ?was sweet to everyone and had an amazing time? as she cheered alongside famous pals including Blake Lively and husband Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner and Sabrina Carpenter.
It was her second time watching Kelce play, but just one of Swift?s many upbeat outings in recent weeks. On a break from the first leg of her record-shattering Eras Tour ? which is set to make more than $1 billion ? the 33-year-old Grammy winner is clearly enjoying herself as she embarks on a new romance with the football star, 33, and spends quality time with her girl squad. ?Taylor?s doing all the things she hasn?t had time for lately,? says a second source, ?like going out with her friends and staying out late.?
Swift kept a noticeably lower profile during her six-year relationship with British actor Joe Alwyn, from whom she split in April. ?Taylor has decided she?s not going to hide anymore,? a third source tells Us. ?She?s going to be her authentic self and enjoy life.?
Despite talk that Swift and Kelce?s hookup is a PR stunt, multiple sources tell Us the pop star?s feelings for the Ohio native are legit. They?ve seen each other several times ? Kelce was reportedly spotted leaving Swift?s NYC apartment on Sunday morning ? and ?talk every day,? says the third source. ?Taylor?s really enjoying getting to know Travis,? the insider adds. ?They?re taking it day by day, but she has high hopes. She likes that he?s a normal, nice guy. He?s down-to-earth and isn?t affected by fame. She also thinks he?s hot.?
A fourth source says the feelings are mutual: ?Travis is completely smitten.?

?Taylor has decided she?s not going to hide anymore. She?s going to be her authentic self and enjoy life.? That?s sort of my favorite part about Taylor, post-Joe Alwyn. She was so fking quiet during that relationship and while I appreciated that, and it felt like she was maturing, it?s been fun to see her as a chaotic single girl, out enjoying her life this year. Was the Matt Healy situation pretty bad? Yes, but it was also hilarious, because she was so out of practice as she tried to grapple with her feelings for a racist famewhore. This Travis Kelce thing must be a welcome relief.

It?s been interesting to watch as Sophie Turner becomes some kind of sainted figure for a particular group of people, and those people suddenly fancy themselves family-law experts who claim that Sophie is 100% right and Joe is 100% wrong. While I?ve said all along that Joe?s carefully orchestrated campaign against Sophie was a nasty business, don?t confuse that with Sophie having a strong position. She is not in a strong position whatsoever. As soon as she claimed that Joe was abducting their children while their daughters were with her in New York and after she had been served with the order to not remove the children from the US it was clear that Joe and Sophie both needed to come to the table and work out their sh-t quietly. Thankfully, over the past week, it looks like they?ve started to do just that. They?re now dealing with the family court in New York, they agreed to not remove the girls from the greater New York area for the time being, and now they?ve agreed to mediation:
Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner are turning to mediation to work through custody of their children. In a hearing on Tuesday, lawyers for the estranged couple revealed that they are set to start a four-day mediation on Wednesday to resolve issues in their divorce, including establishing custody and a parenting plan for their two daughters, Willa, 3, and Delphine, 14 months.
Although Judge Katherine Polk Failla set a Jan. 2 trial date, the mediation aims to solve many of Turner, 27, and Jonas custody issues. In court, Turners lawyer Stephen Cullen claimed that Jonas, 34, is asking for joint custody, saying that what he was looking for is a 50-50.
The parties are both seeing their children, which is what we all want, Cullen later said.
Judge Failla agreed with Cullen, saying that she echo[es] concerns about the children that he had brought up.
Despite high hopes for the mediation, Cullen said that the current case should proceed in parallel track to [the] mediation.
Reps for Jonas and Turner did not immediately respond to PEOPLEs request for comment regarding the mediation.

For the record? Joe has never said that his aim was full custody. He?s always said that he and Sophie should have 50-50 custody, and he?s actually fine with Sophie moving back to the UK and raising their daughters there half the time. He just doesn?t want to move to the UK, which seems to be the root of all of this drama more than anything else. I would love to know how all of this plays out in mediation, but that?s the whole point of Sophie and Joe going through mediation they can work this sh-t out with their lawyers in a room instead of the acrimonious legal filings.

Selma Blair was finally diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) five years ago. I say ?finally? because she only got the proper diagnosis after being in pain for most of her life, and spending ten years doggedly seeking an answer. On Monday Selma was invited to speak at the White House to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Rehabilitation Act and the 33rd of its descendant, the Americans with Disabilities Act. Escorted on the arm of President Joe Biden ? who fought for both bills in Congress as a senator ? and with the assistance of a cane and her support dog Scout, Selma spoke with candor about how both laws have helped her to be ?a proud disabled woman.? I?m not crying, you are.
Blair told a crowd of advocates attending the ceremony, ?Although I?d had symptoms since the age of 7, it took a lifetime of self-advocacy to finally lead me to a diagnosis at age 46, after living most of my life in pain and self-doubt.?
She said Judy Heumann, a renowned activist who helped secure passage of the legislation protecting the rights of disabled people being celebrated Monday and who died in March at age 75, ?Taught me my worth.?
?The push towards equity continues,? Blair said. ?Our laws and policies must reflect that our disabled lives are not of lesser value.?
Biden also hailed Heumann, noting that, ?History shows it?s often not the people in power, but the power of the people that move the country forward.?
The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability in programs conducted by federal agencies, and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 prevents discrimination against disabled people on everything from employment to parking to voting.
October is National Disability Employment Awareness Month, and Biden noted both bills received bipartisan support when clearing Congress.
?These laws are a source of opportunity, meaningful inclusion, participation, respect, and, as my dad would say, the most important of all, dignity,? Biden said. ?Be treated with dignity. Ensuring that the American dream is for all of us, not just for some of us.?

Selma looked like a BOSS. Everything about her look is goals for me: the white-blonde slicked-back hair, the Chanel-esque Carolina Herrera suit with impossible-to-miss embellishments, a faithful dog companion, what looks like a lucite cane. It?s all working, and it?s all fabulous. The only area I?ll have to tap out on are the heels. I look like a baby giraffe taking her first steps in those things.
So a breakdown of her look may seem superficial, but I think it makes a deeper impact too. Everything she (and Biden) spoke about had to do with equity, dignity, and worth. With that outfit and the way she carried herself, Selma?s whole presence commanded respect and attention. So much respect, in fact, that when Biden bent down to give Scout a scritch (who was napping at Biden?s feet), when Selma gave Scout a gentle direction it was Biden who responded by standing up straight again. Good boy, Joe! And it made me so, so happy that she and Biden both honored Judy Heumann, who was a great light that went out this year. Those acts would not exist today without her, as she was ?the mother? of the disability rights movement in America.
