EVERY sincere fan carries what may appear to be an inordinate amount of emotional attachment and angst for their team and/or favorite celebrity. Whether they’re yelling at a referee, still in mourning over Brangelina or arguing with other fans about how to spell “celebrity,” we all have our passions and our ways of supporting them.
While the power of celebrity can work its magic in places beyond the red carpet, there’s no denying that it can also have a profound impact on sports games and other competitive events. For instance, when singer and songwriter Taylor Swift started showing up to Kansas City Chiefs home games, the team’s viewership and merchandise sales skyrocketed.
Similarly, when NBA star Damian Lillard requested a trade from the Portland Trail Blazers, the rumor mill kicked into high gear. As if all that wasn’t enough, Cardi B made her SummerSlam 2025 appearance her own and slayed in the arena and on social media.
We’ve also got the latest on WNBA star Suni Lee and her new beau, NBA player OG Anunoby, as well as a former WWE star and her Coldplay cheating scandal and surfing star Billy Kemper’s gruesome injury. Plus, Olympian Lindsey Vonn talks about her career and groin injury.
