Taylor Swift is quickly approaching other pop sensations like Michael Jackson and The Beatles when it comes to generating mass hysteria and pandamonium — even without being present. Over the weekend, rumors swirled that the singer and new beau Travis Kelce were dining together at a Connecticut restaurant, causing throngs of young fans to show up waiting for a glimpse of the duo. With Swift’s longtime friends Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively owning a house in nearby Pound Ridge, the rumor was reasonable enough.
However, the restaurant manager assured local news outlets that the two weren’t at the establishment and called local authorities to wave off the crowd. What could have possibly started this wildfire rumor that the couple were at a random restaurant in the middle of Connecticut? Two scarecrows dressed like the pair. No need to adjust your screen, you read that right. The Swifties can at least hang their friendship bracelets on the fact that these were contest-winning scarecrows and not just some duds.
Whereas one couple was a no-show, another couple was a surprise show. Snoop Dogg celebrated his 52nd birthday this weekend with the help of his brothers: Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly. The Step Brothers duo surprised the rapper with a three-tier cake and special performances of “Boats ‘N Hoes” and “Gin & Juice” during a benefit show at L.A.’s Greek Theatre. Here’s hoping the cake didn’t taste like nachos and Lemonheads.
The timeline has shown up for us today, starting the week off right with some seriously hilarious tweets. Today’s best include those about someone who wants to give a rat a gun, a muppet with some serious drip and man’s best friend: The Yellow Pillow.
