After Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announced their engagement on Tuesday (Aug. 26), social media exploded with well-wishes for the superstar couple — from ecstatic fans and the pair’s famous friends alike.

Celebrity reactions included Sabrina Carpenter, who is the only featured artist on Swift’s upcoming The Life of a Showgirl album, teaming up with her Eras tourmate for the project’s title track. On Instagram Stories, Carpenter shared 10 white hearts above an engagement photo of the couple embracing with their foreheads touching.

Charlie Puth shared the same photo on his Instagram Stories, writing above it: “Congratulations Taylor & Travis! This is the best part of life. So happy for you both!!” Puth was in his own #EngagementEra last year, before marrying longtime family friend Brooke Sansone in September 2024.

Jelly Roll couldn’t contain his all-caps excitement on Instagram Stories, writing, “Let’s go TRAV AND TAYLOR! Congrats big dog! @killatrav love looks good on you bubba.”

Avril Lavigne shared the engagement post too, writing on Instagram Stories: “Awww huge congratulations to @taylorswift and @killatrav.” She finished her message with three ring emojis and three shimmering pink heart emojis. Chainsmokers DJ/producer Alex Pall chimed in on Instagram Stories too, with a message for the NFL star: “Shout out to the lover boy @killatrav.”

Beyond Swift’s fellow pop stars, Kelce’s football family also weighed in on the news, with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes sharing three red hearts on Instagram Stories alongside the engagement post, and his wife Brittany writing on IG: “Two of the most genuine people meet & fall in love. Just so happy for these two.”

Gracie Hunt, daughter of Chiefs Chairman and CEO Clark Hunt, shared her “congratulations” on Instagram Stories, adding, “so happy for you two.” She also released a statement to People, which read: “I can’t stop smiling — Travis and Taylor’s engagement feels like a modern fairytale unfolding in real life. Their love story has captured so many hearts, and now it’s stepping into an even more magical chapter.”

Some more of Swift’s high-profile friends sent messages too, with Taylor’s childhood bestie Abigail (name-dropped on her Fearless single “Fifteen”) simply writing, “This ❤️,” above the engagement news on Instagram Stories, while supermodel/actress and longtime #Squad member Cara Delevingne wrote “@taylorswift + @killatrav” with 14 hearts-on-fire emojis.

After President Trump’s surprisingly supportive reaction to the engagement news earlier Tuesday, another vocal Swift critic, conservative host Megyn Kelly, shared that she was “rooting” for the couple — among other less-cheerful words. “I am rooting for them,” Kelly wrote on her website, after saying that Swift lost her when “she went political and, like anybody who does that in the arts, they risk alienating half the country.” Kelly’s essay continued: “I don’t think it is a coincidence that the person she ultimately decided to settle down with is a real man, is a football player, is a tough guy who doesn’t really take a lot of sh– from people. That is generally attractive to most women. I think it is no accident that this gal from the south [Note: Swift is from Pennsylvania] who started out singing country songs found him attractive, and he was ultimately the one who won her heart. I also think it is obvious the reasons why he would be attracted to Taylor Swift, so I am rooting for them.”

Swift and Kelce had nothing but support from tennis legend Martina Navratilova, who simply shared a clapping emoji alongside the news on X.

After sharing the role of King Herod in this month’s Jesus Christ Superstar live production at the Hollywood Bowl, actors John Stamos and Josh Gad once again teamed up to congratulate Taylor and Travis, lip-syncing to Swift’s Billboard Hot 100 top five hit “Love Story” while riding the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney World. “When you hear the happiest news at the happiest place on earth,” the pair captioned the video, asking in their collab Instagram post: “Where were you when you heard the news?”

Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay gave Stamos and Gad a run for their money, as he perfectly played off Swift and Kelce’s original “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married” caption in his own Instagram post. “From one ring to the next,” Ramsay wrote alongside a photo of himself with Kelce on the field for the 2023 Super Bowl, in which Kelce’s Chiefs beat the Eagles. “Congrats @killatrav & @taylorswift ! From your favourite Home Ec Teacher.”

The internet has had a lot to say about Betty Who‘s recent appearance on the Made It Out podcast — and now, King Princess is offering her two cents on the situation.

In a TikTok posted Tuesday (Aug. 26), Mikaela Straus shared her thoughts on the recent controversy, in which Who talked about being a queer woman while dating a straight man, and how it felt “like a crime to be straight” in the queer community.

“You are not a victim because you started dating a man and queer people are disappointed in you because you used the queer community to market your music,” Straus said in her video. “They feel betrayed, that’s fair, you have to live with that. Who cares? To get up on a podcast and claim this victimhood when you are in a position of privilege — dating a man in a heteronormative society — is ridiculous, and it is not going to resonate with people.”

Straus did not specifically call out Who by name, but clarified in a comment under the video that her statements were “about the many divas who felt the need to do this THIS YEAR,” seemingly also referring to similar controversies that erupted around JoJo Siwa and Fletcher.

“Date a man, it’s not a big deal. But why are you on a podcast talking about it? It’s not an interesting narrative,” Straus continued in her video. “We live in a country where our rights are being stripped from us every day, and you think it’s important to get on a podcast and talk about how hard it is to be in a heteronormative relationship? Diva!”

During her appearance on the Made It Out podcast, Betty Who also made comments about lesbian pop star Reneé Rapp, saying that she would “hold space” for the singer to one day fall in love with a man while trying to make a larger point about the fluidity of sexuality. “Reneé Rapp is like, ‘You’ll never catch me dating a man.’ It’s like, ‘Go off, queen! I love that for you,'” Who said. “But I also hold space for her in 10 years if she goes, ‘Oops, I met the love of my life and it’s this man, I didn’t mean to.’ It’s like, that’s OK!”

As fan speculation continues to run rife online, Noel Gallagher has shared whether Oasis will switch up the setlist on the band’s Live ‘25 Tour.

Since kicking off their triumphant reunion tour in Cardiff, Wales, last month (July 4), the Gallagher brothers have performed the same 23-song set at each show – including a five-night hometown residency at Manchester’s Heaton Park plus stadium gigs in London, Edinburgh and Dublin.

The tour rolled on into Toronto’s Rogers Stadium over the weekend (Aug. 4), heralding the start of a North American leg that includes dates in Chicago, East Rutherford and Pasadena over the next fortnight. As “Lyla” soundtracked a promotional video ahead of the band’s first Canadian gig in nearly 17 years, fans had hoped for some changes to the setlist for the forthcoming run.

The current Live ’25 setlist, which was performed in its entirety in Toronto, leans heavily on material from the legendary Britpop band‘s first two records: 1994’s Definitely Maybe and (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, released the following year. Notable absences from their post-2000 output include the aforementioned “Lyla” and “Stop Crying Your Heart Out” – the latter being one of their biggest streaming-era hits.

British comedy writer Matt Morgan shared his thoughts on the setlist during a recent episode of his podcast, adding that he’d discussed this with his close friend Noel Gallagher (via NME). The pair have previously appeared on BBC Radio 2 together, as well as numerous episodes of Morgan’s podcast. “It’s mad that they’re doing the same set,” he began.

“I thought they would vary it slightly. I said to Noel, ‘Don’t you just want to mix it up?’ He said, ‘No, I like it like that.’ He knows where he is. They bang it out.”

Morgan then explained that he had talked to the songwriter and guitarist after one of Oasis’ recent shows at Wembley Stadium. “[Noel] looks so happy. He is. I didn’t see him on the Friday because he just goes quickly but on Saturday, because he didn’t have a gig the next day, he was hanging out for a bit. He was well happy with it all.”

He continued: “At various points I spoke to him in the last year about it, and he sort of moved his opinion of what [the set was] gonna be and what it is. I think it’s done so well and felt so good. He seems very happy with it. And he looks happy on stage, actually. He’s not plodding through it.”

Later in the year, the Oasis Live ‘25 tour will head to South America, Australia, South Korea and Japan, culminating Nov. 23 at Estádio do Morumbi in São Paulo, Brazil.
