It's April 28th, I'm Cory with the story, and this is Entertainment and Celebrity News today. AI powered and star driven. Taylor Swift just spilled how a simple car ride with her fiance, Travis Kelsey, sparked her song Elizabeth Taylor. She was going on about why she loved the actress so much. From fighting for artists' rights to those famous violet eyes, that chat stuck with her all the way home. Right after pulling into the driveway, a melody hit her out of nowhere. She rushed to her phone's voice memo app to capture it, turning that moment into the second track on her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, dropped in October 2025. Elizabeth Taylor's estate gave the green light for the references, calling it lovely and her son Christopher Wilding dug it too, seeing Kendrick. Spirits in Swift and his mom when it comes to female empowerment. Now on the wedding front, the couple who started dating in 2023 and got engaged last August, sent out Save the Dates with a date.
But no. Venue. All for security to avoid a media circus. Instead of gifts, they're asking guests to donate to their favorite charities since they have plenty already. And word is, folks love the thoughtful. And vibe, while the pair plans big bonuses for the wedding staff.
