This Year, We Should ALL Resolve to Cut Out Diet Talk

Jan 09, 2018

Every Body celebrates inclusivity and the representation of human beings in every shape and form.

We are fresh into the new year and it’s happened again: we’re being bombarded by posts all across every form of media telling us that we can look better, feel better and more importantly, be better. The biggest way to achieve this, the message goes, is if we could just lose weight.

Diet talk is everywhere and each and every single year, it seems harder and harder to escape. With each refresh on Facebook or Twitter, there are slews of cringe-worthy headlines about how to achieve the “New Year, New Me” body through fitness or diet. It can feel suffocating and be triggering and no matter where we turn, there is someone trying to escape a body that has deemed unworthy by society.

Just look at the character of Kate (Chrissy Metz) on the television show This is Us. Kate is an overweight character who struggles with weight loss and faces size discrimination from her family and peers. Her experience is probably relatable to too many women viewers.

Why is it that all throughout our formative years, we’re told that “thin is in” and that being skinny is more desirable than having any other body type? We’re taught that our bodies are social currency and in order to become socially rich, we must conform and change our bodies and the skin we are in. Each and every year, the diet talk and weight loss propaganda hit peak intensity as the new year approaches. But really, why?

Besides diet talk and weight loss advice being super ableist and fatphobic, why aren’t we more willing to embrace our skin as it is and embrace a more positive outlook on ourselves and the bodies we inhabit? One of the biggest challenges in life is to really embrace our bodies, to truly love ourselves from the inside out. It takes more effort to tune out the negative self-talk we aim towards ourselves and work hard at building a positive body image.

For many folks who have experienced a heightened sense of negative body image, there are so many feelings, including shame and anxiety, attached to our bodies. Having been there, I know that it can be difficult to break the cycle. But regardless of one’s size, shape or age, only you have the power to break the cycle of negative body image and cut out the diet talk.

It may surprise you to learn that of all the people that diet around the world, research has found that only five percent can actually keep the weight off for five years or more. The destructive cycle of yo-yo dieting isn’t even sustainable. So his yew near, rather than trying to achieve ‘diet goals,’ it should be seen as more challenging and way more positive for your mental and emotional health to eliminate diet talk and weight loss goals from your life, entirely.

This New Year, I challenge you to develop a healthy relationship with food and set up positive affirmations for yourself. Embrace your imperfections and try to identify (and name) your negative self-talk. Stop holding yourself to high standards and whatever society holds as ‘ideal beauty standard’. Stop focusing on your weight and the size of others. Relax your own standards towards yourself and provide yourself with empathy. Work on cutting out the diet and weight loss talk out of your life and focus on developing a beautiful and fulfilling relationship with your body, as it is. Trust us, it will be the best decision you make in 2018.

Are you over diet talk? Tell us @britandco!

These 2 New Drinks On The Starbucks Winter Menu Are The Sweetest Valentine's Treats

PSLs and Peppermint Mochas are so last season. The Starbucks winter menu just got a sweet upgrade with two brand-new Valentine's Day drinks!

The latest sips draw inspiration from the holiday of love, recalling some of our absolute favorite V-Day desserts like cookies and chocolate-covered strawberries. Scroll ahead to see the new additions to the Starbucks winter menu!

We’ve also got the tea (or rather, coffee) on Starbucks' seasonal merchandise (hello, reusable cups!) and how to save money on your next coffee run. Read on, and come back here for more updates.

New Starbucks Valentine's Day Drinks!

NEW! Chocolate Hazelnut Cookie Cold Brew

This V-day sipper is like your regular cold brew, but it's sweetened with hazelnut syrup and topped with a chocolate cream cold foam. The cherry on top is the chocolate cookie crumble topping! If you like all things sweet – especially around February 14 – you need to try this iced coffee. Here's what we thought when we sipped it:

"The Chocolate Hazelnut Cookie Cold Brew is so good. It's lightly sweet, but with something special (AKA the cookie crumble on top). It's also not too sweet to be considered purely a snack."

NEW! Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Crème Frappuccino

This coffee-free frapp features swirls of strawberry puree that work wonderfully with blended ice, milk, and Starbucks java chips. It tastes *just* like a chocolate-covered strawberry! We got to try it ahead of the Starbucks winter menu V-Day launch, and here's what we thought:

"The frapp is amazing, the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. It's for the girlies who love chocolate, but also sweet, fruit-flavored desserts. There's no caffeine, so wouldn't order it on a morning coffee run (or replace my daily iced coffee with this), but would definitely make a 3pm trip to Starbucks for this sweet treat!"

More Drinks On The Official Starbucks Winter Menu

NEW! Iced Shaken Hazelnut Oatmilk Espresso

The Iced Shaken Hazelnut Oatmilk Espresso, a new member of the permanent menu at Starbucks, highlights blonde espresso and hazelnut syrup that are shaken together and topped with a splash of creamy oat milk. This one should taste like liquid Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and I need it now.

Pistachio Cream Cold Brew

This cold brew iteration returned for the early 2024 Starbucks winter menu in January. It boasts an ice-cold pour of Starbucks' signature cold brew, topped off with a thick, creamy layer of pistachio-flavored cold foam. Yum!

Pistachio Latte

This returning sip features a light, yet nutty impression from a delightful dose of pistachio syrup. It's my personal fave because it's sweet, but not too overwhelming! You can order the Pistachio Latte hot or iced, and make any customizations to milk or sweetness that you'd like.

Starbucks Winter Menu New Food

NEW! Potato, Cheddar & Chive Bakes

These new, protein-forward bites include cage-free eggs, diced potatoes, cheddar cheese, spinach, and a touch of chives. We love a savory grab-and-go breakfast! According to Starbucks, this snack will be on the permanent menu for the time being.

NEW! Vanilla Bean Custard Danish

This sweet pastry is an all-new item in the Starbucks snack aisle. It's filled with a "rich and velvety" vanilla bean custard that contrasts well with the flaky pastry dough. It's only on the Starbucks winter menu for a limited time, so you'll want to try it before the season's over!

Amazing BYO Starbucks Cup News!

BYOC? Bring your own cup!

Starbucks fans probably already know that they can use a personal cup in-store for a $0.10 discount (gotta love a deal), but now, personal cups are allowed for use in the drive-thru and for ordering ahead in the Starbucks app!

All you need to do is let your barista know that you'd like to use a personal cup – this can be any cup, as long as it's clean – and they will fix you right up! Using your own cup is a great, sustainable way to still get your coffee in, especially if you make going to Starbucks a fairly frequent habit.

If you're a Starbucks Rewards member, you earn 25 Stars when you use a personal cup. Just an added bonus for choosing sustainability!

Starbucks' Reusable Cups For 2024

Starbucks has made it super easy to choose your own cup this year with their new Valentine's drinkware collection! It's dripping in vibrant V-Day florals, making sipping down your go-to order even more enjoyable. Find one of these hot cups (and more!) at your closest cafe.

The Leaked Starbucks Winter Menu For January 2024

View this post on Instagram
A post shared by Markie_devo (@markie_devo)

The Starbucks winter menu was leaked more than a month prior to the official drop, and most of the predictions were pretty accurate.

It wouldn’t be a menu leak without the help of our treasured pal, @markie_devo. The foodie Instagram account posted rumors about the Starbucks winter 2023 drop (which reintroduced the Peppermint Mocha, Chestnut Praline, Sugar Cookie flavors and more) weeks before it actually became official. Markie's predictions proved 100% correct when that menu finally hit Starbucks stores on November 2.

So, what's on the latest Starbucks winter menu? Officially, there's a new cold drink, the Iced Hazelnut Oatmilk Shaken Espresso, the return of the Pistachio Cream Cold Brew and Pistachio Latte, plus two new food items:

Potato, Cheddar & Chive Bakes (similar to Starbucks' Egg Bites)
Vanilla Bean Custard Danish

The leaked menu above also mentions a new Chicken, Maple Butter & Egg Sandwich, as well as a Valentine's Cake Pop and two Oleato (olive oil infused) drinks. We'll be super stoked if these items join later in the season!

Some Starbucks fans were simply elated to hear the rumors about the latest winter menu update.

"Impatiently wait for pistachios return every year," one commenter wrote. "It’s like something to look forward to after the holidays are over 🤗."

Others were quite hesitant to let go of the winter 2023 menu.

"Last year they sold out of the potato things in days," someone said in the comments. "I love the pistachio lattes but I want to keep my cranberry bars as long as possible."

A few people simply won't hype Starbucks up anymore because their favorite items are missing from new launches – even if they are rumored.

"I’ve been really disappointed with their take on seasonal menus lately," another commenter said. "Irish cream cold brew was great, sad it’s not returning."

What is in the Oleato?

The Starbucks Oleato has espresso, oat milk, and Partanna extra virgin olive oil.

Does Starbucks still have fall drinks?

Sadly, Starbucks doesn’t have fall drinks ready to order anymore in early 2024. We’ll have to wait until fall for another taste of the classic PSL!

What Valentine's drink are you excited to try? Let us know in the comments!

Your February Horoscope Is Here — See What's In Store For Your Sign

Prepare for an exciting February, starlights — your horoscope is here, and things are about to get real. We begin this month in Aquarius season, and our whimsical ideas will pick up speed. Love, drama, intrigue galore, and this cosmic mixture are all a part of the fun in Aquarius’ zone. Here is everything you need to find out for your February horoscope.

What to Expect For Your February Horoscope In 2024

We start with the messenger planet Mercury, entering Aquarius on February 5, allowing us to expand our minds and align with our plans. Aquarius, an air sign, wants nothing more than for us to dream big. Mercury thrives in this future-oriented sign, and it will give us the grace and speed to begin or continue our passion projects. The best part is that Pluto, the power planet of transformation, is also perfectly aligned with Mercury. This planetary union will help your vision take flight, but this will require you to release an idea or situationship to make room for something brilliant.

Love will be in a challenging position at the beginning of February as Venus will be in an intense square with Chiron. This can lead to breakups or spontaneous pick-ups with an ex or random stranger. This is an opportunity to call it quits or evaluate your relationship and its progression. Just before Valentine’s Day, no less, it can be hard. Take this moment to review your love story and allow vulnerability to guide you in finding a resolution and a path to healing the heart.

On February 7, love will take an unconventional spin as Venus is in a harmonious trine with Uranus. Expect your relationship or love story to evolve. Embrace diversity and the idea that love is all around, guided by your energy. Serendipitous events, such as triple numbers, signs, or symbols, are to be expected. Pay attention to the signs. The Universe will guide you in shaping your love story.

The New Moon in Aquarius on February 9 will lead to curveballs in our plans as it's in an intense square with Uranus. The way to navigate this new moon is to reinvent our approach and become open-minded. To be comfortable, you have to analyze what is uncomfortable in your approach so far. Luckily, Venus continues to thrive with Uranus in harmony, and it will add flair to our life purpose – boldness is crucial to work with this energy. Relationships of all kinds require reinvention on this day, so review your position with your partner and assess.

Love will undergo scrutiny and intensity as Mars, the planet of sex and motivation, aligns with Pluto — the Underworld lord — in the Aquarius sign on February 14. These two planets, in conjunction, can lead to powerful breakthroughs in your creations and love, but this requires careful calculation. Invest time in contemplating the future of your desires. It's not the right time to decide — it's more favorable to strategize.

Our values and love will evolve to a different light as Venus shifts to the sign of Aquarius on February 16. This transit’s outlook and mood will focus primarily on freedom and ascending our connection based on camaraderie and friendship. If you're in a relationship, this is the moment to rebuild its framework to an intellectual connection. Live in the moment, laugh, and you will strengthen the bond. If you don’t feel free to express yourself, your relationship will likely undergo a test on February 17, when Venus aligns with Pluto. Focus on your truth and allow it to be your guide when deciding on the future of your relationship. This requires you to see your love story from every angle and assess its value in your love story.

The Sun enters Pisces on February 18. This season is whimsical, dreamy, and ethereal. The veil thins, and our connection to our Higher Self and the subconscious realms is more prominent than at any other time. Begin a meditation or mindfulness practice to help you get started if you desire to engage with the world of spirit or find inspiration for creative ventures. With the karmic planet Saturn, also in the sign of Pisces, this is the perfect opportunity to look back to the past, reflect on all you have learned in your journey, and assess how you can redefine yourself. Going through this process will help structure your ideas.

On February 22, the love and desire planets Venus and Mars will align, promising an opportunity to reignite the passion in your love story. If this month has been trying on your relationship, this day promises answers regarding the future of your love story. These planets in the Aquarius sign will promote a harmonious fusion of feminine and masculine energies, requiring conversations instead of brooding to convey your message. Negotiate.

The flow of our conversations will be heart-centered and emotional, with Mercury entering the sign of Pisces on February 23. Expect your dreams to be lucid and your ideas continuous. Get grounded because an idea or two can escape your memory. Write your thoughts in a journal these next three weeks because it will be worth revisiting when Aries season happens later next month.

The Full Moon in Virgo on February 24 will close a chapter regarding our emotional bearings. Invest time in self-care rituals by caring for your body and cleaning your space. Virgo is the sign associated with details, cleanses, and the body. When you consider these measures, you will reap the benefits of what this full moon can bring. Life is a ritual.

Expect a stroke of luck on February 28 — it's the Mercury Cazimi! Like the speed of light, your intuition will power up on this day. Expect your ideas to take root, come alive, and stabilize with the power of the Sun, Mercury, and Saturn. The Sun brings constitution and the ability to receive divinely guided support to your ideas. At the same time, Mercury allows you to receive messages clearly, and Saturn will help you ground down your principles accordingly. Meditate and ask the Universe for its guidance. Listen carefully, and you will succeed.

When Venus and Mars connect on the 22nd, expect your motivation to solidify and your influence to take root. Launch your business, start a podcast, or whatever is lighting you up because the Universe is on your side to deliver your wishes. When the Mercury Cazimi happens on the 28th, get ready to attract a new form of income or contract involving your passions. Luck will be on your side regarding finances, business loans, or investment opportunities.

Pisces

Expect swift changes regarding your inner subconscious realms Pisces. Pluto will reveal raw and cathartic insights in your dreams while powering up your intuitive abilities. Mercury will be your guide this month, and when it crosses over your subconscious zone on the 5, get ready to receive a taste of Pluto’s lessons involving letting go of the past and inviting spiritual growth in your life.

The New Moon on the 9 extends a new thought form to your beliefs while helping you take an authentic path. Honesty is the best policy, and it's time to face the hidden shadows of doubt and regret – let it go. The Full Moon in Virgo, on the 24, will help you sift through relationships that do not serve your well-being or refine it. It will also present an opportunity to ascend your relationship status to a higher level – engagements or contractual agreements will likely manifest. An auspicious opportunity will show on the 28 when the Mercury Cazimi infuses your sign to a higher level. Your intuition will level up and expect answers to unresolved matters. Your voice will strengthen, and you anticipate a shift in your reality by vocalizing your truth and assertiveness. The Universe is listening.

Model and Activist Hunter McGrady Reflects on DSW’s First Inclusive Runway Show

The fashion industry has been given a bad rap for their unrealistic expectation of beauty, and rightfully so. From magazine covers to commercials, we’d see the same type of model with similar build, ethnicity, and age. Now, through the championing of body-positivity, the fashion industry is beginning to make room for all to have a seat at the table. Last month, DSW hosted its first inclusive "Runway Redone" fashion show at Industria in New York City for their Fall ‘19 collection.

“I love the idea of giving women a platform to show off their individuality and confidence on a stage normally reserved for the select few,” said size-inclusive and body-positive activist Hunter McGrady, who hosted the show. “I also try to use my voice to evolve the industry for the better, so when I was given this moment to take a stance on the runway, I thought it was the perfect extension of my ongoing message.”

In partnership with Create & Cultivate, this show added DSW to the growing list of brands “walking the talk” of diversity in the fashion industry. The designer shoe warehouse opened their casting call to their community of customers and received over 4,000 submissions. The ten women selected, along with five style influencers and five DSW associates, represented diverse ages, ethnicities, cultures, gender identities, abilities, and more. All 20 models will also be featured in DSW’s Fall campaign.

“After this show, I’m confident and hopeful that fashion labels will follow DSW’s lead by inviting everyday women to be an accurate representation of their brand identity,” said McGrady.

The Sports Illustrated model didn’t start her career as the curvy woman she is now. After dieting and starving herself to maintain the typical beauty standard, McGrady realized her body wasn’t built to be thin. Since then, she’s worked to inspire other women to embrace their God-given bodies reminding them that they are #AllWorthy.

“I not only want to see positive change during NYFW, but I want to see it everywhere and every day in the fashion industry so that inclusivity becomes the norm for our society,” said McGrady.

Both stars had nothing but praise for each other's work and creativity.

August 2021: Zoe Kravitz's Fresh Start

www.instagram.com

Taylor Swift Is FINALLY Going To The Super Bowl

The most notable news from our resident popstar BFF Taylor Swift (aside from her record-breaking Eras Tour movie, of course) is her most recent boyfriend update. Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift were first linked after Travis tried to give the singer his phone number during one of her concerts this year. And after a few NFL games, getaway car rides, and restaurant takeovers later, it looks like this potential relationship isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Here's a timeline on everything we know about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's potential relationship!

A Timeline Of Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce's Relationship

September, 24 2023 - Taylor Swift Started Attending Kansas City Chiefs Games

Taylor Swift started attending Kansas City Chiefs games this year, seemingly after an indirect invite from Travis Kelce himself. When Taylor played her Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium (the Chiefs' home stadium), Travis tried to give her a friendship with his number on it.

“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis told his brother after Jason during an episode of their New Heights podcast. “I was a little butt hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”

Considering Taylor Swift has now gone to a few Chiefs games — and nearly broken the internet — we're pretty sure he's not upset anymore!

On September 24, Taylor Swift watched the NFL game with Travis' mom Donna. After the football game on September 24 — in which Taylor sat with Travis Kelce's mom, Donna, and created (another) pop culture phenomenon with a single photo — not only did Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce leave the Arrowhead Stadium locker room together, but they also drove away in Travis' convertible!

October 1, 2023 - Taylor Brought Some Friends To Watch The Chiefs

On October 1, she was joined by all-star BFF's Sabrina Carpenter, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sophie Turner, and Hugh Jackman to watch the Chiefs play against the New York Jets. While Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift didn't leave the stadium together after *this* game was over, the fact that Taylor was surrounded by so many of her friends feels like they're there to support something special.

And we'd be remiss not to mention a few easter eggs while we're at it! This feels so much like a callback to Taylor's 1989 era, where she spent a ton of 2013-2015 hanging with her friends in the coolest NYC spots. Plus, the fact she's wearing all black (and some edgy accessories on her shorts) while we all speculate on what she's up to and who she's dating, not too dissimilar from her Reputation era. 👀

October 12, 2023 — Taylor Swift Makes A Good First Impression

We know Taylor always tries to make a good impression (hello "Mirrorball!"), but it turns out, she also makes a good impression without even trying.

The first time Taylor met Travis Kelce's dad Ed, he noticed how genuine she was when she started helping around the suite. “She gets up to go get a drink or somethin,g and she starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around," he tells People. “And I'm just thinking, 'I don't think she got the diva memo. She didn't get the spoiled musician. She doesn't know how to pull that off.' And that really to me said a whole lot.”

October 14, 2023 - Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Were On SNL

Yes, Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce were both on the October 14 episode of Saturday Night Live. The couple attended the SNL afterparty together and fans were very quick to spot how much the football player took care of the singer. He opened her door, made sure she was okay, and reportedly even told a bodyguard that he could step aside. When I first saw the images, they looked so much like a rom-com cover to me that I thought they were photoshopped!

Then on Sunday night, Travis and Taylor were seen in New York City again as they made their way into a restaurant (once again holding hands!). It might be important for Swifties to note that both of Taylor's outfits are black, edgy, and very Reputation...I can't wait to see what she has up her sleeve!

October 19, 2023 Travis Apparently Plans To Visit Taylor On Her International Tour

ETreported that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are "all in" on this relationship, according to a source. They told the outlet that Travis intends to head to Buenos Aires, Argentina while he's on a bye-week for the Kansas City Chiefs. We hope he's able to give her those friendship bracelets this time! 😘

October 22, 2023 - Taylor Swift Is Improving Travis Kelce's Game

After the 31-17 win on October 22, Kansas City Chiefs' coach Andy Reid mentioned how much Taylor's influencing Travis' game during a press conference. He notes that Travis' performance is only improving and that “Taylor can stay around all she wants.”

The October 22 game also appears to be the couple's official hard launch. Mecole Hardman Jr.'s girlfriend Chariah Gordon posted a series of photos with Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce after the game — including this one where Taylor's kissing Travis on the cheek! Swoon!

October 31, 2023 — Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Celebrate Halloween Together

On an episode of Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast, Travis said he loves the idea of a dinner party on Halloween night. "Like a Halloween dinner party. Everybody comes in costumes and we have a party," he says in the conversation.

But he also refuses to admit what costume he picked. "I'm gonna let mine be a surprise," he says. "I'll make sure everybody sees it, and we'll talk about it after Halloween."

They haven't posted their costumes yet, but we can't wait to see the final looks!

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship only continues to get deeper, especially since a source told ET Online that Taylor could be the one for Travis: "Everyone close to Travis loves that he is happy. He is on the path to finding that special person in Taylor."

However, given the frenzy around Taylor, and the media coverage of their relationship in general, Travis' family is also concerned for their safety. (And after hundreds of fans showed up uninvited to see Taylor attend a private wedding, we kind of are too, TBH).

"They're so appreciative of their fans, but hope to keep some aspects of their relationship private going forward," the source continues. "This level of stardom is something new to Travis, and although he can handle it, he is still getting used to it. Safety is a major concern among everyone, especially given how passionate fans feel about their relationship."

November 5, 2023 — Taylor Swift (Virtually) Celebrates Travis Kelce's New Record

After the Kansas City Chiefs game on November 5, People posted on Instagram celebrating Travis Kelce's new title as the KC Chiefs' leading receiver with 10,941 receiving yards. Taylor Swift liked the post, and considering she's very strategic and intentional about her Instagram activity, Swifites were very excited.

"Me giggling cuz TS liked this post," one user commented. "It’s an interesting time for Taylor & Kelcem" another said. "They are both at supremely high career success points. What joy!"

On November 9, a source told US Weekly that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce “actually spend a lot of one-on-one time together and have developed a very real connection," plus the fact that "they have very detailed plans coming up on how to stay together while she’s on tour and he has games.”

November 11, 2023 — Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Have Their Own Rom-Com Moment

On November 11, Taylor changed the lyrics of "Karma" from "Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me" to "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me" (a move that seemed somewhat spontaneous considering how surprised her backup dancers were!!). Travis reveals on the November 15 episode of his New Heights podcastthat he had a "little bit of a clue" she'd change the lyrics.

"Definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth, [it] still shocked me," he says. "I was like...'Oh, she really just said that, alright.'" He was so shocked in fact, that he didn't even realize Taylor's dad was trying to high five him. "Mr. Swift, I apologize big guy," he continues. "I never miss a high five too, big high five guy!"

And after the show, Taylor went straight up to Travis standing outside a tent and the coupleshared a kiss. It felt like it was straight out of a rom-com — a popstar running up to a star football player and surprising him with a kiss. The crowds in person went wild, but the internet also can't stop talking about it!

"This is sooooo adorable," one X user said. "Her little run. His hands behind his back like he’s waiting for his prom date or something. Ughhh they’re both in deep."

November 20, 2023 — Travis Kelce Spills On His Relationship In WSJ Magazine

Travis Kelce once again breaks the internet with his WSJ Magazine cover story. He talks about football, his family, and (of course) Taylor Swift. “I’ve never been a man of words. Being around her, seeing how smart Taylor is, has been f*cking mind-blowing," he says. “Obviously I’ve never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them….But at the same time, I’m not running away from any of it….She’s just living, enjoying life. When she acts like that I better not be the one acting all strange.”

Even Mama Kelce had something to add! “I can tell you this,” she says in the interview. “He’s happier than I’ve seen him in a long time…. God bless him, he shot for the stars!”

Fans are also hoping to find out Taylor and Travis are spending Thanksgiving together. Via Page Six, Taylor will fly back from her Eras Tour in Rio de Janeiro to spend the holiday in the States before heading back for another show on November 24. And TMZ reports that the couple "plans to be together for the holidays," which includes lining their schedules up to spend as much time together as they can.

Taylor celebrated another one of Travis' milestones on Instagram, when she liked a post from the Kansas City Chiefs. "Fastest tight end to 11k receiving yards AND the only player in franchise history to do it," the post says. According to a Daily Mail source, as soon as Taylor Swift's Eras Tour wrapped up its 2023 dates, she's moved into Travis' private Kansas City mansion (which he reportedly bought for them to spend time together) for the duration of her break — which includes her birthday and Christmas. Here's hoping we see her at another KC Chiefs game soon!

December 3, 2023 — Taylor Shows Up To The Chiefs Game Looking Festive

Taylor Swift hung out in a box with Brittany Mahomes in Green Bay, Wisconsin during the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Green Bay Packers. Not only is Taylor Swift's jacket KC Chiefs red, but it's also totally Christmas appropriate! "Travis' friends think this is the real deal for him,” an insider told Peopleat the end of November. “They're still a little shocked by all of it — that he's dating the Taylor Swift, but they've seen how down to earth she is with his friends and family.”

But before Taylor donned her Elmo-approved red coat, the couple was already in the Christmas spirit. They showed up to Miracle, a pop-up bar in Kansas City, on December 1, for the Chiefs' holiday party. It appears they were wearing some festive sweatshirts (as well as Taylor's signature red lip). Here's hoping they also got to have some more chicken with seemingly ranch.

December 6, 2023 — Taylor Talks Travis In Her TIME Person Of The Year Article

There's been pleeeeeenty of speculation about when Taylor and Travis actually started dating. Was it that first Chiefs game? Were they just friends still? Was it before that game? While only the lovebirds know their true timeline, Taylor gave us a peek behind the curtain in her TIME MagazinePerson of the Year article.

According to Tay herself, the pair started hanging out immediately after Travis first mentioned her on his New Heights podcast. She said, “We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other. By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”

Swift continued by explaining that she and Travis "show up for each other" and that they're "just proud of each other." BRB, sobbing.

On December 8, an insider told Life & Style Mag that Travis is planning something special for Taylor's 34th birthday on December 13. “Travis has something special planned,” they say. “He’s arranged a very intimate romantic dinner just for the two of them, and is also trying to pull off a semi-surprise party with the help of some of her closest friends."

The insider also says Travis could use the evening to propose to Taylor, which we would *totally* be in favor of.

December 10, 2023 — Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Share Some Swoon-Worthy PDA

After the KC Chiefs and Buffalo Bills game on Sunday December 10, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce went out with the team to celebrate. They wound up back at the Miracle pop-up bar, which is still just as (if not even more) festive than it was before! The evening was sure to lift Travis' spirits after the Chiefs' loss, and I, for one, need to make Taylor's Christmapolitan drink ASAP.

Thanks to the Chiefs' barber @patty_cuts, we also have a pic of Taylor and Travis embracing each other! If you ask me, this deserves to be a movie poster because I feel like we're living in a real-life rom-com. And apparently, one of their friends agrees!

"We had an amazing time," Chetarah Jackson (a friend of Travis' who sat with Taylor in the suite at the game) tells Entertainment Tonight. "Taylor and Travis are so in love. It was so cute seeing them together and I can see them getting married."

December 17, 2023 — Taylor Swift Gets Cozy At The Chiefs x Patriots Game

Taylor Swift showed up to the KC Chiefs vs. New England Patriots game looking both comfy and cute in a Chiefs sweatshirt and beanie (and her iconic red lipstick, of course). In addition to Alana Haim and Brittany Mahomes, Taylor's dad Scott Swift also showed up to the game, which ended up being a big deal because he wore KC Chiefs gear when he's been a lifelong Philadelphia Eagles fan! 👀

Scott isn't the only one having fun with the couple! Kaleigh Teller (Miles Teller's wife and a good friend of Taylor Swift) recently liked a TikTok speculating Travis got Taylor a very special birthday present: the ring Taylor wore during her party. It appears to be an opal stone surrounded by blue topaz, and if that's true, it has so much meaning because Travis' birthstone is opal and Taylor's is blue topaz! Thoughtful gifts are our absolute favorites...and it looks like they're Travis' too.

Travis also told PEOPLE that even though he has a game on Christmas Day (his brother Jason does too), the holiday "will be a fun one."

"My brother sent me a text and said he’s going to be celebrating afterwards," Travis continues. He also confirmed that he's planning on celebrating Christmas after the 25th too — hopefully with Taylor!

According to Page Six, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will also spend the rest of the holidays together. Since Travis has games on both Christmas and New Year’s (against the Las Vegas Raiders and Cincinnati Bengals respectively) we’re sure to see her cheering him on.

December 22, 2023 — Patrick Mahomes Talks Taylor And Travis 👀

Patrick Mahomes hopped on CBS Morningsthis month, and gave *his* inside scoop on Taylor and Travis. While noting how comfortable Taylor is with "Chiefs Kingdom," Patrick also took a moment to recognize her many achievements. He said, "He's lucky enough to be with a great girl and a great woman, and it's been cool to interact with her because she's top tier of her profession—and how she drives and she becomes that, it's really cool to hear about and to see." He followed up by saying, "I'm glad that she's the person that she is, and that's why I think her and Travis match so well." So clearly, Tay gets the BFF stamp of approval!

December 25, 2023 — Taylor Swift + Family Attend Chiefs v Raiders

December 31, 2023 — Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Share NYE Kiss

After a Chiefs win on Sunday, Taylor and Travis stepped out in style at a NYE party with their friends and family. Travis wore a Midnights-esque outfit, in head-to-toe brown courduroy — come on, '70s! Of course, Taylor made the whole place shimmer in a stunning silver sequin dress by Cleo Peppiatt, paired with celestial hair pins and her signature red lip...which was allegedly smudged later on in the night...😘 We got a peek at one kiss in question on Instagram, originally posted by @krystenrachelle. It's definitely giving, "I want your midnights!" 😍

January 21, 2024 — Taylor Swift Hangs Out With Jason And Kylie Kelce

After months of attending Travis Kelce's games, Taylor Swift was finally in the box at the same time as Jason Kelce's wife Kylie, and this is a WAG friendship we are *totally* here for. Despite the media pitting them against each other, the two women were seen laughing and spending time together in the box, which really just leads me to wonder why we're constantly obsessed with women not being friends? "Kylie is so great," a source tells People. "Everybody loves her."

The most-talked about moment from the game, however, can be chalked up to Jason Kelce, who jumped out of the box shirtless and started yelling at the top of his lungs. He's since been called the KC Chiefs' “No. 1 hype man,”been compared to Gabriela Montez, and gotten people's hopes up for a very lively best man speech;). Someone also captured Taylor Swift's reaction to Jason's viral moment, and it's just as funny as the moment itself!

Taylor isn't the only one who knows how to be goofy — Travis Kelce's teammate Patrick Mahomes told People that despite the newfound media frenzy over Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce (and achieving his "dream" of being on SNL), Travis remains just as fun and down-to-earth as he always was. “Travis has always been Travis,” Patrick tells People. “He still will walk through the stadium and treat every single person like they’re his best friend. And he’s going to be like that in the locker room every single day.”

January 28 — Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce Celebrate A Chiefs Win...And Break The Internet

After the Kansas City Chiefs won against the Baltimore Ravens on January 28, they're headed to the Super Bowl! Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce celebrated with a kiss on the field, and fans have been comparing their total rom-com moment to everyone from One Tree Hill's Lucas and Peyton toA Cinderella Story's Austin and Sam.

In addition to a mockneck red sweater, Taylor was decked out in a gold friendship bracelet of their initials, as well as 87-themed jewelry to support her BF. I also find it *very* important info that Taylor Swift is a square nail gal (will this inspire my next manicure? Only time will tell).

When the Super Bowl takes place on February 11, Taylor Swift will have just wrapped up the Tokyo leg of the Eras Tour, but I'm convinced she'll still show up to the game on her day off. This will be a huge moment because, despite being asked to perform multiple times, Taylor has never actually performed at the Super Bowl, so she's never really had a reason to go. One popular fan theory is that this is due to Taylor Swift being a face of Diet Coke in the past (she really is just like us!), while the halftime show has historically had Pepsi as a sponsor.

February 18, 2024 — Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Are Expected To Make Their Red Carpet Debut

Considering both Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got People's Choice Awards nominations (Taylor for Movie of the Year for Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, Social Celebrity of the Year, Female Artist of the Year, and Pop Artist of the Year and Travis for Athlete of the Year), the ceremony is the perfect place for this couple to make their red carpet debut!

Until the awards show, the couple continues to enjoy their time together. A source tells People they're "really happy" and "having a lot of fun, but they're still seeing where it goes."

So, what's the relationship between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?

Image via Elsa/Getty Images

According to Taylor herself (via an interview with Time), the pair started seeing each other right after Travis "called her out" on his New Heights podcast in July.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship continues to get more serious. “They share a strong work ethic and have a huge appreciation for life and their careers, strong family bond and values," the insider tells People.

An insider also shares that during Taylor's break from the Eras Tour (during September and October), she enjoyed catching up with all of her friends and “had fun spending time with Travis.“ We cannot get enough of this couple!

How old is Taylor Swift and how old is Travis Kelce?

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were born in 1989. Travis just turned 34 on October 5 and since Taylor Swift's birthday is December 13, she's 34 now, too! After Travis and Taylor left Arrowhead Stadium together, some Swifties noticed Travis was wearing a blue and white set, and wondered whether it served as a 1989 (Taylor's Version) double release Easter egg.

Check back here for the latest update on Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce!
