Posted byBy J.R. Gamble | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

In the world of famous couples, the relationship between Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and pop culture superstar Taylor Swift is as hot as it gets.

The two took their canoodling on tour to the streets of New York City this weekend, where they lampooned themselves on screen and hit a few hot spots hand-in-hand to let you know it‘s real.

The 49th season premiere of “Saturday Night Live” happened late Saturday night, and host Pete Davidson and recording artist Ice Spice weren’t the only guest appearances gracing the night. Both Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made their presence known, jumping in on the funny takes about the over-reporting of their relationship.

Best Saturday Night Ever

The skit featured a mimicry of the Fox “NFL Sunday” panel with Kenan Thompson as Curt Menefee, Mikey Day as Howie Long, James Austin Johnson as Jimmy Johnson, Devon Walker as Michael Strahan, and Molly Kearney as Terry Bradshaw.

“Let’s get into the game and stop yapping about Taylor and her little boyfriend,” Thompson’s version of Menefee said.

Later, Pete Davidson appears on the field as a sideline reporter waiting to catch Taylor Swift somewhere at MetLife Stadium; as a tilt to the appearance at the Chiefs’ game against the Jets on Oct. 1, suddenly Travis Kelce appears on the sidelines. Swift appeared briefly on the show to introduce musical guest Ice Spice’s second performance.

However, the two were seen at dinner at Nobu and later at the “Saturday Night Live” afterparty earlier that evening.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
