Taylor Swift continued her record-breaking ways over the weekend by performing to a massive crowd Saturday night at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

“A huge thank you to everyone who came to the show last night in Indianapolis.

See you in St Louis.”

JUSTIN BIEBER & HAILEY BALDWIN MARRIED? – (09/17/2018)

Despite reports to the contrary, Hailey Baldwin wants to inform everyone that, no, she hasn’t already married Justin Bieber.

Baldwin issued a statement to politely deny the nuptial claims. “I understand where the speculation is coming from,” she explained, “but I’m not married yet!” However, her tweet was deleted later.

The duo visited a New York City courtroom last week to apply for a license in the Marriage Bureau, with sources saying during the visit they discussed an imminent trip to Canada.

People magazine claimed sources said that the two were legally married at the courthouse on Thursday, just two months after getting engaged.

“They went ahead and did it without listening to anyone,” a source close to the couple tells the mag.

A religious source adds that the two will be having a religious ceremony and celebration with family and friends soon. “They’re going to have a big blowout, in front of God and everyone they love,” the insider says.

In a new report, People still maintains that legally, Baldwin and Bieber did get married civilly – but Baldwin just doesn’t see herself as fully married until she has a religious ceremony. A friend close to the couple told the outlet that Baldwin just “feels a civil ceremony and their ‘real’ wedding are two separate things.”

Meanwhile, Bieber has lived in the United States since he was 13, and has reportedly applied for dual U.S.-Canadian citizenship.

MEL B CONFIRMS SPICE GIRLS REUNION TOUR ON ‘LATE LATE SHOW’ – (09/17/2018)

Mel B has once again claimed the Spice Girls are getting back together for a reunion tour.

The America’s Got Talent judge confirmed the rumors on Thursday’s episode of The Late Late Show when host James Corden asked about the oft-speculated reunion. “100 percent it’s happening,” was her reply.

Corden wanted to know if every group member was on board, and so he ran down the list of all the Spice Girls as Mel confirmed or denied. The singer revealed that Baby Spice (Emma Bunton), Sporty Spice (Melanie “Mel C” Chisholm) and Ginger Spice (Geri Halliwell) are all “for sure” joining the tour.

However, when it comes to Posh Spice, a.k.a. Victoria Beckham, things are little more up in the air. “Well, we’ll see about that one,” she said, before adding that “she may join us for a few” shows.

Another idea tossed around during the interview was having celebrity guests fill in for Posh. Corden tasked fellow guest Olivia Munn to do a Posh impression, which was pretty good. Mel applauded Munn for her imitation and then said, “Katy Perry would be good, wouldn’t she?”

Mel also said that she still has all her original Spice Girls outfits and confessed to creating a “shrine” of Spice Girls memorabilia in her bedroom.

Is he in or out as Superman? The Hollywood Reporter reported that Warner Bros. was ousting Henry Cavill from the role, but he cast doubt on the rumors with a post on Instagram that left most viewers scratching their heads.

Wearing a T-shirt emblazoned with the text “Krypton Lifting Team,” the 35-year-old stares intensely at the camera, slowly raising and lowering a Superman action figure. “Today was exciting,” he captioned the video, adding “#Superman.”

“Huh?” social media screamed in unison. “What are you doing?!” one user asked, while another wondered: “What does this mean?”

Warner Bros. responded to reporters’ questions, saying simply that the studio has “always had great respect for and a great relationship with Henry Cavill, and that remains unchanged.”

Meanwhile, alternative Superman options are being floated and Michael B. Jordan is considered a front-runner. And … Cavill is now floated as the next James Bond.

Literally. And I’ve sat in the rooms with all these guys.” Still, if the conversation were broached … “I’d probably fit the suit, you know? I have to – I’d have to work out a lot, which I don’t love.”

ARIANA GRANDE’S BROTHER THANKS MAC MILLER FOR SOBRIETY – (09/14/2018)

Frankie Grande, the brother of singer Ariana Grande, paid homage to the late Mac Miller on Instagram, thanking the rapper for helping him get sober.

Miller, real name Malcolm James McCormick, died recently at the age of 26 due to an apparent overdose. Miller and Ariana Grande dated for about two years before the pair called it quits in May.

“I am beyond heartbroken over Malcolm’s death. He was a good friend and was wonderful to my sister. He was the reason I went to the rehabilitation center where I was detoxed safely from all of the drugs alcohol and medications I was taking, when I couldn’t imagine living without them,” Frankie said on Wednesday alongside a black and white photo of Miller.

“It was the place where I found the community of support that showed me that living life without drugs was a possibility and I would never have discovered that if it weren’t for Malcolm,” he continued. “I remember when I would get 30, 60, 90 days clean and Malcolm would be there with a gift and a card and words of encouragement… telling me that he knew how hard getting sober is and how impressed he was that I was succeeding.”

Frankie then advocated for those suffering from addiction to seek out help.

“Malcolm my friend, you will be dearly missed. and I know you will be looking down on me from heaven, proudAF for every day I live my life clean and sober… 453 days and counting… Thank you from the bottom of my heart,” Frankie said in conclusion.

Ariana also recently paid tribute to Miller on Instagram, posting a photo of her former boyfriend with no caption.
