ESPN wonders if Travis Kelce bought Taylor Swift an engagement ring

ESPN is all in on engagement speculation when it comes to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s love story.

“NFL Live” anchors debated the matter — which fans of the Grammy winner have speculated on since news broke last fall of her romance with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end — on Tuesday’s broadcast.

“Travis Kelce made a big purchase recently. No, not an engagement ring, but it was Swift-adjacent,” quipped Laura Rutledge, referring to news of Kelce’s new racehorse named Swift Delivery, adding, “I like it.”

“How do you know that Travis Kelce didn’t buy an engagement ring?” Adam Schefter asked.

“I don’t know. Do you know?” asked Rutledge. “Are you gonna break some big news here?”

“I’m just saying, you said he didn’t buy an engagement ring, and I’m just wondering…” responded Schefter.

The Super Bowl champ and hitmaker, both 34, went public with their romance last September. They’ve since taken their relationship global, with Kelce regularly popping up at international legs of the singer’s record-breaking Eras Tour.

In May, a source told Entertainment Tonight the stars’ “loved ones see an engagement coming sooner than later.” However, an insider swiftly told Us Weekly engagement was “not even on [Kelce’s] radar.”

“Travis has no plans on proposing to Taylor anytime soon,” said the latter source.

The pair went Instagram official in July in a selfie featuring Prince William, Prince George and Princess Charlotte at one of Swift’s Wembley stadium shows. Later that weekend, Kelce joined Swift on stage.

Comedian Nikki Glaser hosting Golden Globes after Tom Brady roast

After memorably roasting Tom Brady in May, comedian Nikki Glaser has scored big with her next gig — hosting the 2025 Golden Globe Awards.

The annual awards show and CBS, which will air the ceremony on Jan. 5, made the announcement on Wednesday.

“The Golden Globes is not only a huge night for TV and film, but also for comedy,” Glaser, 40, said in a statement. “It’s one of the few times that show business not only allows, but encourages itself to be lovingly mocked (at least I hope so). (God I hope so).”

“It’s an exciting, yet challenging gig because it’s live, unpredictable, and in front of Hollywood’s biggest stars (who also might be getting wasted while seated next to their recent exes),” the “FBoy Island” host jabbed.

Praising past Golden Globes opening monologues for featuring some of her “favorite jokes of all time,” Glaser noted that previous provocateurs like Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Ricky Gervais “have said exactly what we all didn’t know we desperately needed to hear.”

“I just hope to continue in that time honored tradition (that might also get me canceled). This is truly a dream job,” she added.

News that Glaser would host the Globes comes after her breakout barbs on Netflix’s “Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady.”

Comedian Jo Koy faced backlash for several of the jokes he made while hosting the Golden Globes earlier this year.
