Last night, left-leaning Swifties everywhere breathed a sigh of relief: Taylor Swift finally endorsed Democratic candidate Kamala Harris for president. Two officials told NBC News they had no idea Swift's endorsement was coming — her running mate, Tim Walz, even found out on live TV — but they were definitely ready for it. (A representative for Swift didn't respond to a request for comment from BI.) Swift didn't officially endorse Biden until October 7, less than one month before the 2020 election. As Swift herself said in her endorsement post, "The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth."

A judge in Georgia on Monday ordered actor and singer Tyrese Gibson jailed over failure to make child support payments. Gibson, 45, owed $73,525.73 in child support, according to the order. Court documents in the case indicate he is legally appealing having to pay $10,690 per month in child support, which is the same amount Gibson was paying in child support for another child from another relationship, according to court records. "Mr. Gibson has chosen not to abide by the court’s child support order and he was held in willful contempt now for the third time," Gleklen said. "He only paid full child support three times in 20 months.”Less than 10 minutes after the judge ordered Gibson jailed, his attorneys appealed the decision, Gleklen said.

SYDNEY, Australia — Australia plans to set a minimum age limit for children to use social media citing concerns about mental and physical health, drawing a backlash from digital rights advocates who warn the measure could drive dangerous online activity underground. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said his center-left government would run an age verification trial before introducing age minimum laws for social media this year. The law would put Australia among the first countries in the world to impose an age restriction on social media. Representatives of Meta, the owner of Facebook and Instagram, which has a self-imposed minimum age of 13, YouTube owner Alphabet and TikTok were not immediately available for comment. Australia has one of the world’s most online populations with more than four-fifths of its 26 million people on social media, according to government and tech industry figures.
