However, what caught fans’ attention wasn’t just the song choice, it was the fact that Bieber used the older, “stolen” version of the track instead of Swift’s re-recorded “Taylor’s Version”.

One user summed it up best, “It’s the fact the rereleased version of bad blood is more likely on top of the result yet him choosing the stolen version.”

Another user agreed, saying, “He wants Taylors fans to stream his music so bad. Thinking they will forget the way he came for Taylor Swift for simply wanting the masters of her music back.”

“Sorry, but it’s incredibly obvious that Justin Bieber only posted that Taylor Bad Blood IG story so he could create headlines on the day of Selena’s single and music video release. Sad individual,” one fan tweeted.

Why Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber’s relationship has been strained for years?

Justin Bieber’s strained relationship with Taylor Swift dates back years, largely due to his ties to Scooter Braun, the music executive who controversially acquired the rights to Swift’s first six albums in 2016. At the time, Swift accused Braun of bullying her and preventing her from owning her own work.

Bieber added fuel to the fire when he posted a FaceTime screenshot with Braun and Kanye West, captioning it, “Taylor Swift what up.”

Swift later responded in a lengthy Tumblr post, condemning Braun’s business tactics and calling out Bieber for his involvement. While Bieber issued a public apology in 2019, insisting he meant no harm, he also defended Braun, arguing that Swift’s public statements had unfairly turned fans against his former manager.

Swift went on to re-record her albums to reclaim ownership, branding them as “Taylor’s Version”.

Meanwhile, Bieber eventually cut ties with Braun, who announced his retirement from music management in 2023. By January 2025, Bieber had unfollowed Braun on Instagram, signaling the final chapter of their professional relationship.

In an unexpected turn that has shocked Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce fans, a new revelation has put the couple at the center of worldwide. According to rumors

Shocking: Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are at the 2025 Kentucky Derby! The couple’s photos here are making the whole world go crazy. These sweet photos also reveal an even more shocking new news about this secretive couple.

Hold onto your fascinators and tighten those bow ties, because the 2025 Kentucky Derby just went from stylish to scandalously sweet. In an unexpected turn of events that has fans across the globe spiraling into full meltdown mode, pop superstar Taylor Swift and NFL tight end Travis Kelce were spotted arm in arm at Churchill Downs—and they weren’t just watching the races. The pair, known for keeping their high-profile relationship relatively under wraps, made a rare and jaw-dropping public appearance at the legendary horse racing event on Saturday. Dressed to the nines in traditional Derby chic, the couple looked absolutely radiant—smiling, laughing, and turning every camera in their direction. But what really has fans losing their minds isn’t just the fact that they showed up together… it’s what the photos appear to reveal. Yes, the internet is convinced Taylor Swift is sporting a subtle baby bump—AND an engagement ring. Let’s rewind. Kelce, in a custom navy three-piece suit and white cowboy hat, and Swift, glowing in a pale blue floral dress and matching headpiece, arrived via a private entrance shortly before the first race. Despite efforts to keep a low profile, they were quickly spotted by attendees—and within minutes, the world was watching. Photos and videos flooded social media. In several, Travis is seen placing a gentle hand on Taylor’s midsection, a move many fans took as a not-so-subtle gesture. In others, Swift appears to rest her hand affectionately on his chest—and the sparkle on her left ring finger could practically blind a thoroughbred. Naturally, Swifties and NFL fans alike went into full detective mode. “IS THAT A BABY BUMP???” wrote one X (formerly Twitter) user, racking up over 5 million views in under an hour. Another posted a zoomed-in shot of Taylor’s hand with the caption, “THAT’S A ROCK. ENGAGED & EXPECTING? THE ERA TOUR BABY IS REAL!” Of course, the couple has remained famously tight-lipped about their relationship, despite going public in late 2023. Since then, they’ve been spotted at a handful of Chiefs games, a few Eras Tour stops, and even a couple of low-key date nights. But this is the first time they’ve appeared this visibly affectionate—and in such a high-profile setting. Adding fuel to the fire, a source close to the couple (who chose to remain anonymous, of course) told a tabloid: “They’ve been planning this soft launch for months. They knew the Derby would be a moment. They’re not hiding anymore.” Fans at the Derby were quick to share their reactions.“I came here for horses, I left with heart palpitations,” said one woman who managed to snap a blurry selfie with the couple in the background. “Taylor looked so happy. Like, glowing. Literally glowing.” Others pointed out the strategic brilliance of the reveal. “This is so Taylor-coded. She drops Easter eggs in lyrics and now she’s dropping them at sporting events,” joked one fan on TikTok….

Travis Kelce releases a book about his love for pop star Taylor Swift: when they were attracted to each other, how they flirted, how they started confessing their feelings, and the remarkable stages of their relationship

In a move no one saw coming, but everyone’s talking about, NFL star Travis Kelce has just released a bombshell memoir titled “Catching Her Heart: My Love Story with Taylor Swift”—and it’s already sending shockwaves through both the sports and pop music worlds. The book, which dropped without warning this morning, is a deeply personal, emotionally charged account of how Kelce fell in love with the world’s biggest pop star, Taylor Swift. In its pages, he reveals everything fans have been dying to know—from the first spark of attraction, to flirtation, confessions, and the extraordinary stages of their whirlwind relationship. “I Never Expected Her to Notice Me—Until She Did” In the first chapter, Kelce takes readers back to the summer of 2023, when he famously attended the Eras Tour with the hopes of meeting Swift backstage. “I made a friendship bracelet with my number on it. Cheesy? Definitely. But I had to shoot my shot,” Kelce writes. To his surprise, Taylor didn’t meet him that night—but the gesture stuck with her. “She later told me she saw the clip of me talking about it. She thought it was bold. A little ridiculous. But kind of adorable,” he shares with refreshing honesty. “That was the spark.” Flirting in Plain Sight The second part of the book dives into what Kelce calls “the playful months”—a period where the two flirted through mutual friends, Instagram likes, and subtle lyrics. “She started slipping little football references into her songs during soundcheck,” Kelce claims. “I’d catch them and just laugh. I’d text her like, ‘You trying to drive me crazy out here?’ She always replied with a winking emoji.” Fans now believe several previously unexplained “mystery lyrics” from Swift’s 2024 deluxe album Midnights: Touchdown Edition were actually written about Kelce during this flirtation stage. Confessions and Clarity In one of the book’s most intimate chapters, Kelce describes the night they finally confessed their feelings. “It wasn’t some big glamorous night in New York or L.A.,” he writes. “It was on her couch, barefoot, with a bowl of popcorn between us. She looked at me and said,…
