Taylor Swift has entered her billionaire era. The music Swift has released since 2019 is valued at $400 million, Bloomberg reports, while her income from sales of tickets and merchandise to her massive concert tour is $370 million. Her earnings from streams of her music, real estate portfolio and royalties from music sales are estimated at $310 million. Earlier this summer, Swift's Eras Tour was already poised to become the highest-grossing tour of all time, earning a record-setting $1 billion in sales. A recently released concert film of the Eras Tour quickly became the highest-grossing domestic concert film ever, raking in just short of $100 million during its opening weekend.

By the end of his first year in the National Football League, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was "damn near dead broke," he said on his weekly "New Heights" podcast in May. "I had my eyes on a pair of size 13 Nike Air MAG 'Marty McFlys' — the coolest shoes that I'd ever seen in my life," Travis said. "As soon as I got my check, I immediately went online and sourced them." A shoe collector, Travis said he spent around $10,000 on the limited edition sneaker. "Somebody came up to me and told me that you had bought those shoes and I looked up how much they were and I remember being like, 'What the f--- , Travis,'" laughed Jason.

New York CNN —Bud Light might be experiencing a knockout of its own, but this time it’s on purpose. The multiyear sponsorship, which begins on January 1, 2024, makes Bud Light the “official beer partner” of the UFC, with the beer branding having a “highly visible presence” during fights and weigh-ins. The new agreement is a reunion for Bud Light and the UFC, after a previous sponsorship ended in 2017. Bud Light replaces Modelo as UFC’s beer sponsor, the Mexican lager that has dethroned Bud Light from its title of America’s top-selling beer. Sales of Bud Light are still sinking, with volumes down 30% year-over-year for the four weeks ending on October 7, according to NIQ data given to Beer Business Daily newsletter.

Something stunning happened in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s Kansas City Chiefs game: a pass from Patrick Mahomes to Travis Kelce fell incomplete. For any other tandem in football, this is a normal occurrence. But nothing about this season has been normal for Kelce. The incompletion snapped a streak of 29 consecutive passes directed to him that Kelce had successfully hauled in.

Wearing a red Kansas City Chiefs t-shirt and a black cheerleader-inspired miniskirt, Swift appeared on CBS’s broadcast at Arrowhead Stadium watching the team play the Los Angeles Chargers.

Sunday marked the fourth time the singer has attended one of Kelce’s football games in person since she first appeared on the Chiefs’ home turf in September. Despite the G-rated PDA and the four football games Swift has now attended in person to support the two-time Super Bowl champ, they have yet to publicly comment on their relationship status.
