Taylor Swift once joked that "anyone I’ve ever talked to" would be invited to her wedding.Apparently, she was not kidding.Swift and Travis Kelce’s reported Madison Square Garden wedding this weekend is expected to include around 1,000 guests, which means the guest list is less “intimate gathering” and more “award show with vows.” The couple has not publicly confirmed the full guest list, but reports, sightings, interviews, and a few very suspicious tuxedo fittings have started to sketch out who may be inside the Garden. SEE ALSO: Here's everyone who definitely won't be at Taylor Swift's wedding So who is reportedly going? Let’s check the seating chart.Gigi Hadid Credit: XNY/Getty Images Gigi Hadid is not just expected to be a guest. She is reportedly part of the bridal party. Hadid and Swift’s friendship dates back to 2014, and Hadid has publicly supported Swift’s relationship with Kelce, writing in 2023 that they were "over the moon" for her. Swift was seen arriving at Hadid’s New York City apartment on July 1, just days before the reported wedding. Nothing to get you wedding ready like girl-time with your best friend!Selena Gomez Credit: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Selena Gomez is another obvious Swift guest, and another reported bridesmaid. The two have been best friends for over 17 year — Swift even has a song about Gomez called "dorthea." Gomez has been filming Only Murders in the Building in London but is expected to fly back to New York for the festivities.Abigail Anderson Berard Credit: Lester Cohen/WireImage Abigail Anderson Berard is not just another famous friend. She is Swift’s childhood best friend and the “Abigail” fans know from the song “Fifteen.” Elle reported that Anderson Berard was seen at Swift’s Watch Hill, Rhode Island, beach house during the weekend Swift was rumored to be having her bachelorette, and that she has long been expected to attend the wedding. Anderson Berard is expected to serve as Swift’s maid of honor.Andy Reid View this post on Instagram Chiefs coach Andy Reid is also a shoe-in for an invitation. Reid joked on a radio show that he "probably" had an invite and would go if he did not outgrow his tuxedo. He also was spotted picking up his tuxedo on June 25. That is a lot of tuxedo activity for a man not going to a wedding.Zoë KravitzZoë Kravitz has been friends with Swift for years, she even co-wrote the song "Lavender Haze" on Midnights. People reported that a source close to Swift said Kravitz received an invitation, but her fiancé — Taylor Swift's ex boyfriend and 1989-muse — Harry Styles, has a concert scheduled in London that night. Hopefully he can make a late-night flight across the pond and get to MSG in time. Ed Sheeran Credit: Gareth Cattermole/Getty Images Ed Sheeran is also one of Swift's oldest friends and collaborators — and he's already been spotted in New York about 60 miles from Aaron Dessner’s Hudson Valley recording studio. Swift herself teased his likely involvement during an October interview on the U.K.’s Hits Radio Breakfast Show, when she was asked whether Sheeran would sing at her wedding and replied that it would be hard to keep him from it. How I wish I could experience that private concert. Sabrina Carpenter Credit: Johnny Nunez/Getty Images Sabrina Carpenter has not publicly confirmed she is attending, but the clues are definitely there. Carpenter opened for Swift on several international Eras Tour dates, later became part of Swift’s current music universe with their Life of a Showgirl collaboration, and was spotted in New York on June 30 having dinner with friends in the West Village just days before the Big Day.Suki WaterhouseSuki Waterhouse can be presumed to be in attendance because she literally said she is going. In a Variety interview published in May, Waterhouse said, “I’m gonna go to Taylor’s wedding,” and joked that she might get inspiration for her own wedding to actor Robert Pattinson. She and Swift have been friendly for years: they were spotted out together in New York with Cara Delevingne and Dakota Johnson back in 2016, dancing together at the 2024 MTV Music Awards, and Waterhouse opened for Swift at Wembley Stadium during the Eras Tour. Mariska Hargitay Credit: Dustin Satloff/Getty Images Mariska Hargitay and Swift have been connected for years, especially through one very furry friend: Swift's cat, named Olivia after Hargitay's Law & Order SVU character. Fans have already started to watch Hargitay’s Broadway schedule because her show Every Brilliant Thing had a break on July 3, the reported wedding date. Hopefully she can make it, considering they looked like they had a pretty fun time together at the Knicks game. Stevie Nicks and Tim McGrawStevie Nicks and Tim McGraw are reportedly expected to both attend and perform. Swift has written songs about both of the musical legends: "Clara Bow" and, fittingly, "Tim McGraw." I hope those songs made it to the top of the request list. Jack Antonoff Credit: Kevin Mazur/Getty Images Jack Antonoff is one of the easiest names to imagine on Swift’s guest list. The producer and Bleachers frontman has worked with Swift for more than a decade, from early collaborations like “Sweeter Than Fiction” through major albums including 1989, Reputation, Lover, Midnights, Folklore, and beyond. He is also a close real-life friend: Swift attended Antonoff and Margaret Qualley’s wedding in New Jersey in Aug. 2023. So if Swift and Kelce are gathering their inner circle at MSG, Antonoff and Qualley would make sense as both friends and returned-wedding-energy guests.Cara DelevingneCara Delevingne is another longtime Swift friend. Delevingne once even lived with Swift during a difficult breakup. In a 2024 conversation, Delevingne said Swift “looked after” her well but that she also took Swift on “a bit of a wild ride.” Isn't that what best friends are for?The Haim sisters Credit: Kevin Winter/Getty Images Este, Danielle, and Alana Haim have been part of Swift’s inner circle for years, and are expected to be wedding guests. Their current Swiftworld relevance is also very MSG-specific: Este, Alana, and Swift made headlines at Game 4 of the NBA Finals for their punny “Knicks” graphic-t-shirts.Graham Norton This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Graham Norton has the clearest paper trail of almost any non-family invitee. In Oct. 2025, Swift appeared on The Graham Norton Show to promote The Life of a Showgirl and told Norton she planned to invite him. That invite was, seemingly, not empty. Norton was pictured arriving at JFK airport July 2, ahead of the reported wedding weekend. Norton also joked on his Wanging On podcast in January that he had signed "so many NDAs," though he later clarified that was a "joke." Sure, Graham. Sure. Patrick and Brittany MahomesPatrick and Brittany Mahomes are widely expected on Kelce’s side of the list. Patrick is Kelce’s quarterback, teammate, close friend, and one of the central figures in the Chiefs’ dynasty. Kelce served as a groomsman at Mahomes’ 2022 wedding, so it only makes sense for Mahomes to return the favor. George and Claire Kittle This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. George Kittle, the San Francisco 49ers tight end and Kelce’s Tight End University co-founder, has also basically confirmed his own attendance. People reported that Kittle told ExtraTV at the Tight Ends & Friends concert that the couple had a strict no-gift rule, then joked that he might get Kelce an old coin anyway. How about the New York Knicks’ starting lineup? This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. July 2 saw reports that the Knicks' starting lineup was going to return to the Garden halls — but this time as wedding guests. However, star player Josh Hart debunked the rumor. Maybe after another championship win? Again, Swift and Kelce have not publicly confirmed the final guest list, so all of this still lives in the world of reports, sightings, public comments, and heavily analyzed celebrity logistics. But if even half these names make it inside the Garden, "anyone I’ve ever talked to" may not have been much of an exaggeration.

Team USA won its game on Wednesday night, defeating Bosnia and Herzegovina 2-0 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. It marks only the second time that the team has won in a knockout stage match in the team's history at the World Cup.While many U.S. soccer fans celebrated the win, referee Raphael Claus put a major damper on the celebrations due to a red card issued to Team USA striker Folarin Balogun. Fans took to the internet to voice their displeasure with the ref's decision, which required a VAR review.The red card was issued in the 64th minute of the game, making the win even more challenging for Team USA. The team ultimately pulled off the win, but there are further consequences from receiving the red card that may affect Team USA's chances in the round of 16 game against Belgium on Monday.So, what does this all mean for Team USA? Here's a rundown along with some of the internet's best reactions to Balogun being issued a red card.What is a red card?Yellow cards and red cards are doled out by referees in order to uphold the rules of the match. Yellow cards serve as a warning, whereas red cards are issued for more serious, egregious violations.What happens when a player receives a red card?When a player receives a red card, they are immediately forced out of the game and their team is forced to play with a man down. In Team USA's case, Balogun had to leave the game and USA needed to play the rest of the match with 10 players versus Bosnia and Herzegovina's 11 players. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. In addition, the player that's issued the red card is suspended for their team's next match. Team USA will be able to play with 11 on the pitch against Belgium, but Balogun will not be able to play. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Why are U.S. fans upset?For one, the red card was seen as fairly controversial. During the 64th minute of the game, Balogun and Bosnia and Herzegovina defender Tarik Muharemovic both appeared to go for the ball. Balogun and Muharemovic collided, with Balogun's cleat stepping on Muharemovic's ankle as both players fell to the ground.Analysts and former FIFA refs have shared their opinions on whether Balogun deserved the red card, and there doesn't seem to be much of a consensus. Some agree it was a red card offense, others disagree.Furthermore, the contact appeared accidental as both Balogun and the player for Bosnia and Herzegovina went for the ball. In addition, the red didn't even issue a yellow card at first and required a VAR check before issuing any card. After review, the ref deemed the incident as a "serious foul" and issued the red card. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Balogun has been Team USA's top goal scorer with three goals across three games that he played in. Not having him on the field against Belgium certainly puts Team USA at a disadvantage. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Some fans have been upset about what they view as uneven refereeing across the tournament. A common example being used by fans is when Messi appeared to commit a similar foul in the group stage games. Messi was not called on the foul and didn't receive a red or yellow card.Can the ref's red card decision be appealed? This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. A red card and a subsequent match suspension cannot be appealed, according to FIFA. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. To make matters even worse, FIFA can review the foul and decide to suspend Balogun for additional games. This already happened in one World Cup game this year when FIFA extended a red card suspension against a Qatari player to five games after a foul resulted in a Canadian player breaking their leg. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. For now, though, Team USA is focused on their round of 16 game against Belgium on Monday.

Taylor Swift's wedding hasn't even happened yet, and it's already become the internet's biggest event of the summer.Between TikTok breakdowns, Reddit megathreads, and minute-by-minute updates from press and photographers stationed outside of Madison Square Garden in New York City — Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's reported wedding venue — fans have been dissecting everything from security plans to celebrity arrivals. There are enough rumors and speculation to make even seasoned Swifties dizzy. SEE ALSO: Is Taylor Swift getting married this weekend? Everything we know. That got us wondering: If the world's biggest pop star is about to walk down the aisle, what Taylor Swift songs deserve a spot on the wedding playlist?In honor of Swift's favorite number, here's our dream 13-song Taylor Swift wedding playlist."Lover" If one Taylor Swift song was destined for weddings, it's this one. A timeless waltz wrapped in intimate lyrics, "Lover" has become a first-dance staple for countless couples. Released during Swift's pink-hued, heart-on-her-sleeve Lover era, it's romantic without veering into cheese, capturing not just the magic of a wedding day but the quiet promise of the life two people are about to build together."Love Story" No Taylor Swift wedding playlist would be complete without the Fearless song that made generations of fans believe in fairy tales. More than 15 years after its release, "Love Story" still feels tailor-made for a wedding reception singalong."Paper Rings" "I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper rings." Need we say more? It's joyful, chaotic, and impossible not to dance to in a pop-punk kind of way — a reminder that the relationship matters far more than the diamonds. (Though, have you seen the massive old mine cut diamond engagement ring?) "So High School" If one song belongs to Taylor and Travis, it's this one. Fans have long connected "So High School" to Kelce thanks to its football imagery, playful flirtation, and unmistakable sense of giddy new love. ("You know how to ball, I know Aristotle" is unfortunately one of Swift's funniest lyrics.) Whether or not it actually makes the wedding playlist, it's become the unofficial soundtrack to their relationship. Its nostalgic, '90s-pop sound and playful, butterflies-in-your-stomach energy make it a natural fit for any reception."Mary's Song (Oh My My My)" An early-career deep cut became one of Swifties' favorite Tayvis songs after Taylor mashed it up with "So High School" and "Everything Has Changed" on the Eras Tour, weaving in the lyric, "I'll be 87, you'll be 89" — playful a wink to Kelce's jersey number and Swift's birth year.If there was ever an Easter egg disguised as a love song, this is it."Invisible String" Some love stories feel destined. That's the idea behind the red string theory, the East Asian folk belief that two people who are meant to be together are connected by an invisible red thread, no matter how far apart life takes them.Folklore's "Invisible String" imagines that same kind of fate, tracing two lives that were quietly intertwined long before they ever crossed paths. Whether you believe in soulmates or simply good timing, it's one of Swift's most tender meditations on finding the right person. (Joe Alwyn, you will always be remembered for your contributions to the Taylor Swift discography.) "You Are in Love" Truly one of the best love songs in Swift's entire catalog, "You Are in Love" doesn't rely on grand gestures. Instead, the 1989 deluxe cut celebrates the tiny moments that define a relationship — the shared glances, the routines, the comfort of simply knowing someone. "Daylight" By the time Lover closes with "Daylight," Swift has left behind the dramatic, all-consuming romances that defined so much of her earlier work. Instead, love becomes something calmer. Healthier. Brighter. Warmer. It's less about the wedding day than the marriage that comes after it. After years of searching in the dark, she's finally found someone who feels like daylight."Everything Has Changed" Swift and Ed Sheeran's Red-era duet captures the butterflies of realizing your life might be about to change forever after meeting someone for the first time. In many ways, it feels like the grown-up, grounded counterpart to "Enchanted" — less about wondering if someone feels the same way and more about recognizing, almost instantly, that your life has changed. It's sweet, understated, and ideal for cocktail hour or dinner. And if Sheeran happens to be in attendance, no one would complain if the longtime collaborators dusted it off for one more duet."King of My Heart" When it's finally time to fill the dance floor, let Reputation have its moment. "King of My Heart" delivers all the romance without sacrificing energy, making it one of Swift's strongest reception songs. Consider it the perfect soundtrack for introducing Mr. Taylor Swift himself, the king of her heart. If only those castle rumors were true... "Call It What You Want" Despite its marketing, Reputation is actually one of Swift's most romantic albums. Half of the album is about falling in love. And one of its most intimate tracks, "Call It What You Want," is about finding peace in a relationship while the rest of the world keeps talking. For one of the most famous couples on the planet, that message feels especially fitting."New Year's Day" Picture this: the flowers have been packed away, the guests have gone home, the party is over. "New Year's Day" reminds us that a wedding lasts one day, but marriage is about who's still there helping clean up afterward. Few songs capture that sentiment more beautifully."Long Live" No gathering is complete without at least one singalong of "Long Live." Every great wedding deserves one last anthem. Whether it's the final song of the night or simply one that brings everyone onto the dance floor with their arms around each other, "Long Live" is less about romance than gratitude — for the people who helped you get to this moment and the memories you'll carry long after the last dance.

For a wedding with a reported 1,000-person guest list, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s alleged Madison Square Garden celebration still appears to have a velvet rope.The reported wedding has become a full-blown spectacle in the middle of sweltering-hot Manhattan, with fans, photographers, and celebrity-watchers all trying to figure out who will actually make it inside the Garden. But the more revealing question might be who will not.While plenty of A-listers are reportedly gearing up for the alleged big night, there is also a pretty long list of people who appear set to watch the wedding content on Instagram like the rest of us.Keep reading for the reported, rumored, and heavily speculated names we do not expect to see inside the Garden tomorrow night.Prince William and Kate MiddletonDespite weeks of speculation, Prince William and Kate Middleton will not be attending Swift and Kelce’s wedding. A People report ended chatter that the Prince and Princess of Wales would be in attendance after William jokingly said he was "hoping" there might be an invitation during a May appearance on the British radio show Heart Breakfast.William has known Swift for years, famously joined her and Jon Bon Jovi onstage in 2013, and later took Prince George and Princess Charlotte to the Eras Tour in London, where the royal family posed backstage with Swift and Kelce. Blake Lively and Ryan ReynoldsBlake Lively has been one of the most-discussed possible absences from the wedding because, for years, she was one of Swift’s most visible close friends. Lively directed Swift’s "I Bet You Think About Me" music video, Swift used the names of Lively and Ryan Reynolds' children in "Betty" and other songs, and the couple was regularly part of Swift's public friend circle, from New York outings to the 2024 Super Bowl suite where Swift cheered on Kelce.The reported strain stems from Lively's legal battle with Justin Baldoni over It Ends With Us, which pulled Swift into the surrounding drama even though she was not part of the film. As the dispute unfolded, reports said Swift had been referenced in court filings and text messages, and Baldoni’s side accused Lively of using her friendship with Swift as leverage during conversations about the movie. Swift’s rep denied that she had any involvement with It Ends With Us beyond licensing “My Tears Ricochet” for the soundtrack, but the damage appeared to be done. Miles Teller and Keleigh SperryMiles Teller and his wife, Keleigh Sperry, are also reportedly not on the guest list. Sources close to the couple claim they were not invited, despite their once-close ties to Swift and Kelce, which allegedly ended due to the drama between Swift and Lively, and that Sperry did not want to be involved. Sperry and Teller were seen with Swift during the early days of her relationship with Kelce, including at the 2024 Super Bowl. Teller also later appeared on Travis and Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast, where he referred to Travis as his "brother." Doesn't seem like it anymore. Karlie KlossKarlie Kloss is another name with a long history in Swiftie lore. She and Swift were once inseparable during the 1989 era, appearing together at events, on social media, and even on a joint Vogue cover. Then, over time, public sightings slowed, and fan theories took over. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. The widely discussed fracture has often been linked to Scooter Braun, who acquired Swift's Big Machine master recordings in 2019, sparking one of the most public disputes of Swift's career. Kloss' 2018 wedding to Joshua Kushner became part of the speculation because Braun was reportedly a guest, and Swift did not attend.Kloss' wedding status, however, is messy. Some outlets have reported she is not invited, while TMZ suggested the opposite. Given that she sat GA at the Eras Tour, I'm going to go with the former. Kim Kardashian and Kanye WestThis choice isn't a surprise. Kardashian and Swift's history goes back to the 2016 fallout over Kanye West's song "Famous," after West claimed Swift had approved lyrics about her, and Kardashian released edited clips of a phone call between West and Swift. A fuller version of the call later leaked in 2020, which supported Swift's claim that she had not been told about the most offensive lyric. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. That feud became one of the defining celebrity conflicts of Swift's Reputation era, complete with snake emojis, public backlash, and years of fan analysis. Taylor even has a song called "thanK you IMee" with the letters "KIM" capitalized. Real subtle.Scooter BraunScooter Braun is also widely presumed to be nowhere near the guest list. The reason is obvious: Swift's long-running masters dispute began after Braun's Ithaca Holdings acquired Big Machine Label Group in 2019, giving him control of the master recordings for Swift's first six albums. Swift publicly criticized the deal, and the dispute eventually became a major artist-rights story as Swift began rerecording her old albums.So yes, Braun's absence would be expected. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Calvin HarrisCalvin Harris, Swift's ex-boyfriend, has also been named in some rumored "not invited" lists. The history there is less dramatic than Kardashian-West, but it did get messy in 2016 after Swift's team confirmed she had co-written Harris and Rihanna’s hit "This Is What You Came For" under the pseudonym Nils Sjöberg. Harris responded in a series of tweets, including one accusing Swift's team of trying to make him look bad after their breakup. At least we got a really good song out of it. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. John MayerJohn Mayer is another ex who is most likely far, far away from the Garden on July 3. Mayer dated Swift when he was 32, and she was 19. Following their breakup, Swift released "Dear John," which fans have long believed is about Mayer. Mayer even told Rolling Stone that the song made him feel "really humiliated" and called it "cheap songwriting."That "cheap songwriting" was inducted into the Songwriter Hall of Fame, but I digress.Charli XCXSpeaking of artists believed to have been called out on The Life of a Showgirl, Charli XCX is also rumored not to be in attendance. Rumors of a feud between the two began after Charli released "Sympathy Is a Knife" on Brat, which some listeners interpreted as a dig at Swift. Swift then appeared to respond with "Actually Romantic," a song fans believe is about Charli and includes the pointed line: "I heard you call me boring Barbie when the coke's got you brave." Charli is also engaged to George Daniel, the drummer for The 1975 — the same band fronted by Matty Healy, whom Swift briefly dated in 2023 and wrote an entire album about in 2024. Kayla NicoleKayla Nicole, Kelce's ex-girlfriend, is another snub that is not especially surprising. Nicole dated Kelce on and off for about five years before they split in 2022. In Oct. 2023, shortly after Kelce and Swift's relationship became public, Nicole told People that she had unfollowed Brittany and Patrick Mahomes on Instagram because she needed to "protect" herself, while emphasizing that she still had love for her Kansas City circle. After Kelce and Swift announced their engagement in Aug. 2025, Nicole posted about choosing "joy" on Instagram Stories. More recently, in Feb. 2026, she reflected on her last serious relationship during a TikTok Live and described the breakup as potentially a "right person, wrong time" situation. Most weddings do not include the bride or groom’s exes unless everyone involved has reached an unusually high level of emotional maturity, so Nicole's absence would not be particularly shocking. Well, besides Harry Styles, of course, who will likely be there with his fiancée, Zoë Kravitz. Now that's called growth.

People on social media are already honking about the new gay dating app Goose, due to a Wired investigation that claims it might be using AI-generated men to advertise the app.Goose, founded by actor and model Derek Chadwick, markets itself as an "anti-algorithm" app. It's membership only, and there are no matches, but users can "wave" to each other. SEE ALSO: The best gay dating apps of 2026: Grindr is still king (even if we sometimes wish it wasn't) Before Goose launched, gay men already had plenty of apps to choose from. There's Grindr, which is ubiquitous and easily the most well-known, but over the past few years, users have complained about paywalled features and a buggy user interface. Additionally, there are the apps Sniffies — which dating app conglomerate Match Group just invested $100 million in — SCRUFF, Jack'd, and the new-for-mobile Squirt (to name a few).And one is no longer: During Pride Month, Match sunset its "intentional" gay dating app Archer.In this crowded market, people on social media are describing random men DMing them and adding them to their Close Friends stories, only to promote Goose — and these men might be AI-generated.Wired found more than two dozen Instagram accounts created in May or June 2026 that posted only a few times, suggesting they might be inauthentic. Wired also ran images from the accounts through AI detectors, and there was a high likelihood that AI was used to create these profiles. As Mashable previously reported, these AI checkers aren't foolproof, but combined with other factors, Wired — and gay men the accounts are DMing — have reported that these men may be fake, created solely for the purpose of promoting Goose.Reached for comment, Goose provided this statement: Goose is disrupting the gay app space by creating a place where real people can make real friends, dates, and community – our team hand-picked every person who received an invite to our app, and we are proud of the community we are building. We work 24/7 to keep our app safe and free of the fake profiles that have soured other platforms.

UPDATE: Jul. 2, 2026, 5:56 p.m. EDT This article was updated to include a statement from Goose.

Some television viewers may respond to the return of The Bear, which recently released its final season, with a dismissive groan. Not me. Despite my past misgivings about the FX restaurant drama/comedy, I excitedly binged its last eight episodes within a few days. By no means is it perfect storytelling. The series still sometimes flails, as my colleague Belen Edwards astutely pointed out, and I'll return to those challenges later. What I watched, however, was a rare feat of television: a years-long exploration of human redemption that ends, improbably, with optimism for the future. In an entertainment landscape dominated by apocalyptic fare, serial killer mysteries, whodunit tick-tocks, and paint-by-number procedurals, The Bear offered viewers something radically different.  SEE ALSO: 'The Bear' Season 5 gives Carmy one hell of a career pivot Take characters with undeniable flaws, rough edges, and mental health struggles, give them a dream to believe in, and watch as they messily chart a path to their own greatness, through passion, work, and belonging. This is the stuff that redemption is made of, and Season 5 finally delivered on its promise of fulfillment, particularly for Carmen 'Carmy' Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White) and Richard 'Richie' Jerimovich (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). These two grown men were so haunted by heartbreak and stunted self-actualization that they cruelly tortured everyone around them. What happens to Carmy and Richie in Season 5 of The Bear?As a brilliant but borderline abusive chef, Carmy berated the staff of his deceased brother's restaurant as he tried to transform it from a sandwich shop into a restaurant worthy of a Michelin star or two. By Season 4's end, Carmy understands his time as a chef is over if he wants a different life for himself. In Season 5, he observes, "To break patterns you need to break patterns." He spends much of the final season clumsily trying to be of service to others, offering to do whatever his former deputy Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) needs, like chopping onions and taking out the trash. When his own mistake leads to a broken dish and ruined meal, thus threatening the evening's do-or-die success, Carmy freezes in fear rather than lashing out. To me, this was remarkable progress, and I loved every second of it, including Carmy's eyes as they welled with tears. If every second counts, as the kitchen's mantra declares, the same applies to the passing moments of human weakness, when hard-fought gains against bad habits might be lost in a panic. The scene only deepens when Syd recognizes what's at stake for Carmy and offers reassurance that everyone in the kitchen has his back. Together, the staff salvage the night, against all odds — a scenario that The Bear has been building up to since its first season. Together, they redeem themselves as a group of people with competing priorities and conflicting personalities who still, somehow, feel like family to each other. Sure, there's something satisfying about what my colleague describes as The Bear's competence porn. But at a time of deep division and loneliness, I also relished Season 5's insistence on being part of something greater than yourself. Even if that something is a dysfunctional restaurant that manages to both feed people and give them joy. Richie finally grows upCarmy's cousin Richie appeared to understand the reward of this bargain from the beginning, but ego, immaturity, and violent tendencies got in the way. In the first season, Richie settles a conflict outside the sandwich shop, then known as The Original Beef of Chicagoland, by firing a gun. Despite his innate desire to make customers of that shop feel welcome, Richie also found ways to sabotage a jovial atmosphere with screams, curses, and tantrums. He hated ceding power to Carmy, whose absence and reappearance Richie resented, and to Syd, whose elevated role in a kitchen he once dominated makes him feel small. Richie was initially a repellent character. By the final season, though, the small and large lessons in self-control Richie learns along the way have transformed him (see, especially, the episode "Forks"). He's composed yet vulnerable, mature yet playful. Richie's temper and self-doubt still flare, but he's found strategies for slowing down, like naming the objects in his immediate presence. As someone who's spent more than 15 years reporting on mental health, I found the inclusion of this and similar grounding tactics such a gift to the audience. When do viewers get to see a man, once easily possessed by rage, use such a simple emotion-regulation technique, without the involvement of a therapist? Only on The Bear.  One of the best scenes in Season 5 happens when Carmy enters the walk-in fridge to find Richie managing a panic attack. Carmy, despite a fumbling first attempt at being supportive, finds a way to talk plainly about dealing with his own anxiety in a way that calms Richie. A callback joke to Carmy's walk-in fridge meltdown from Season 2 makes both men laugh, and they cheerfully push each other around. In seasons past, they would've lobbed insults and escalated conflict. Sometimes atonement for previous transgressions is about changing behavior and acknowledging, in some way, the harm. Redemption through family The Bear delivers this message over and over again with its emphasis on family ties, whether they're forged through blood or choice. I appreciate that The Bear vividly depicts family trauma and dysfunction without championing estrangement. People get enough of that on social media when influencers promote severing foundational relationships, sometimes for clicks and views. What happens to Donna?The show is unequivocal about the damage the Berzatto family matriarch, played by Jamie Lee Curtis, has wrought. Donna's longtime alcohol abuse, in combination with a probable mood disorder, has made her unpredictable, manipulative, and grievously harmful.At The Bear's beginning, Donna's surviving children, now scarred by the suicide death of their brother Mikey, are grappling with whether to tolerate her in their lives. The phenomenal episode "Fishes" makes clear why this is no easy calculus. Carmy and his sister Natalie, known as Sugar (Abby Elliott), wouldn't be who they are without their familial closeness, on display in their expansive yet explosive gatherings. As they grow increasingly weary of Donna's volatility, she finds the courage to try to be the mother they need. Ultimately, Carmy and Sugar let her, at considerable risk to themselves. It's no small moment when Donna finally enters The Bear for the first time toward the end of Season 5. The scene is relatively subtle, but suggests the healing that might be possible given Donna's effort to be a reliable grandmother to Sugar's newborn and a present mother to both Sugar and Carmy. In real life, some relationships are so toxic that they must be ended. But The Bear asks its audience to imagine the value of holding tight to bonds when the person on the other side keeps showing up as a better version of themselves, even if that change is incremental. Belonging for The Bear staffIt's true that several of The Bear's characters don't need the redemption that's in store for Carmy, Richie, and Donna. What they need instead is belief in themselves and to be believed in by others. The Bear sends Syd and the other chefs and staff, including Marcus (Lionel Boyce) and Tina (Liza Colón-Zayas), on that trajectory in varying ways. The point, which is reiterated by probably a few too many characters in Season 5, is that belonging to a group of people that feels like family can make that growth possible. As one minor character says upon his departure, that's essentially The Bear's advantage over countless other restaurants. Forgiving The Bear's flawsIt's possible that I'm giving The Bear's final season a lot of grace because I think what it's tried to accomplish over the past few years is remarkable. Maybe I'm falling for the message and too readily dismissing the flaws in the medium. Like my colleague, I found the storm that plagues Season 5 on-the-nose. Staging the season over the course of a single day during which torrential rain is a constant visual and audible reminder of the characters' emotional tumult does feel cliché at times. Cityscape views of Chicago were so intensely lit that they evoked the Upside Down vibe of Stranger Things, a melodramatic flourish the show doesn't need. The first handful of episodes can feel tedious, too. The characters lament the uncertainty of their fate. Will they surrender or see another day in their beloved kitchen? As they contemplate this question, sometimes repetitively, in-show ads for watches, soda, and McDonald's pop up. The marketing hollowed out those scenes for me, but the product placements taper off toward the end, with one notable exception for Coke. I'm not sure I could blame viewers if they give up before service begins. Still, the payoff was ultimately worth it for me. At a time when character-building friction is replaced by click-of-a-button contentment, The Bear depicted the gratification of mastering a craft. While algorithms push facile therapy-speak encouraging people to turn inward, The Bear (eventually) pulled its characters out of their heads so they could pursue meaning and purpose. It also gave them basic mindfulness tools to combat their worst impulses. When many storytellers use suicide only as a dramatic plot twist, The Bear sought meaningful healing for its characters, and remembered the lost brother, son, and friend for much more than the manner of his death. Maybe I'm too forgiving of The Bear for these and other reasons. But I guess I'd rather spend my time with the show's characters and their aspirations, however imperfectly executed on screen, than on a show that doesn't dream as big.

At a time when AI is facing a growing backlash, when even his own administration is tiptoeing towards real regulatory oversight of the industry, President Donald Trump is doubling down on his own usage of what can only be described as AI slop — this time containing dubious deepfakes. On July 1, Trump posted an AI-generated video casting himself as "Doctor Trump," a white-coat-wearing physician offering a "treatment plan" for “Trump Derangement Syndrome," a phrase he and his supporters have long used to attack his critics. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. The clip opens like a pharmaceutical ad, with an AI-generated Trump wearing a stethoscope and telling viewers he has a plan to treat TDS. It then cuts to fake versions of celebrity critics, including Whoopi Goldberg, Robert De Niro, Julia Roberts, Rosie O’Donnell, Edward Norton, and John Leguizamo, who appear as "patients" describing their supposed symptoms and recovery.The fake De Niro says he could not eat or sleep, and was "constantly angry." The fake O’Donnell says she had been "suffering for over a decade." The fake Goldberg describes herself as a lost cause. The clip ends with Trump’s AI persona prescribing a mix of media criticism, prayer, and Diet Coke. Social media, outside Trump's MAGA followers, was not amused. This Tweet is currently unavailable.

This is not Trump's only bizarre interaction with AI this week. On Wednesday, the president visited the newly built Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library in Medora, North Dakota, where he interacted with an AI version of Roosevelt. The library, which opens to the public on July 4, lets visitors explore Roosevelt’s letters, speeches, photographs, and other archival material, including via a lifelike AI version of the former president, all created with help from Microsoft.During the visit, Trump asked the AI Roosevelt whether the Panama Canal was his greatest achievement. The digital Roosevelt said the canal was one of his proudest achievements, but also pointed to parks, medicine, and the Square Deal. This Tweet is currently unavailable.

This is all part of a broader pattern on Trump’s social feeds, where AI-generated images and videos have frequently found a home.Earlier this week, Trump shared what appeared to be an AI image of a giant golden eagle attached to the White House’s Truman Balcony, calling it “A Golden Gift to the White House for its 250th Birthday Year." The "gift" was also shared by official White House social media accounts. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. The image’s metadata suggested it was indeed created with Google Gemini. Photos taken later that evening showed no giant gold bird attached to the White House, which is generally the kind of thing people would notice.Social media users wondered why the shield on the eagle appeared to include 11 stars instead of 13. Others mocked the design as “tacky” and questioned the caption — since 2026 marks 250 years since American independence, not 250 years since the White House was built (it was completed in 1800).

In April, Trump posted and then removed an AI-generated image that showed him as a Jesus-like figure healing a sick man.

He has also previously posted an AI image of himself as the Pope. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. Trump has also shared AI-generated videos and images that place him in more stylized or exaggerated roles. In May, Trump went on a spree, posting more than 20 mostly AI-generated images or clips in about 90 minutes, including images targeting Barack Obama, Gavin Newsom, Hakeem Jeffries, JB Pritzker, and others.Another AI-generated video, shared in June and created by Trump-backed congressional candidate Anthony Constantino, depicted Trump as a globe-trotting hero, including scenes of him riding a lion, appearing on Mount Rushmore, riding a camel, and appearing as beloved Japanese character Naruto. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. The Naruto-style imagery added to an existing backlash from anime and manga fans in Japan, where about 20,000 people have signed a petition titled “Protect Japanese Manga” back in March protesting the White House’s use of imagery from Dragon Ball, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Naruto, and other franchises in political posts. According to the petition, Japan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs had already contacted the U.S. Embassy in Japan over unauthorized use of Yu-Gi-Oh! and Nintendo imagery. In short, AI has become a regular part of Trump’s online presence. Not in any serious policy-based sense, but as a tool for memes, self-promotion, political attacks, and spectacle. We'll wait to see whether that helps Team Trump in the 2026 midterm elections. But with the president at an all-time low approval rating, and AI not faring much better in surveys, it's hard to see how such slop-like usage can do anything more than amuse his most hardcore fans.

In 2026, the fastest news delivery system in Washington still appears to be a sweaty intern in sneakers.After the Supreme Court handed down a series of major rulings on June 30 — including a landmark decision on birthright citizenship and rulings on transgender athletes and campaign finance limits — interns were once again seen sprinting from the court with printed opinions in hand.

The footage quickly turned into its own internet event, partly because the visual is irresistible and partly because everyone had the same questions: what is this tradition, and why are they still doing this?Let us introduce the "running of the interns," one of Washington's strangest and most beloved rituals.The tradition has existed in some form for decades, dating back to the print era of Supreme Court coverage. Because recording devices are banned inside the courtroom, hand-delivered opinions were once the fastest way for news organizations to get major rulings from the Court to reporters outside. That job often fell to interns at media outlets such as CNN, NBC, ABC, CBS, and other news organizations covering the Court. They would wait for printed opinions inside or near the building, grab copies as soon as they were available, and race them to producers and correspondents stationed outside so their networks could report the decision as quickly as possible.The "running of the interns" became a recognizable Washington media spectacle during the Bush v. Gore case in 2000, when TV networks were racing to report the decision that effectively settled a presidential election. In the years that followed, interns kept running on major decision days, including the 2012 Affordable Care Act ruling and the 2015 decision legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide, which popularized the tradition. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. The routine is simple: interns wait for printed opinions, grab the documents, and race them across the Court plaza to producers and correspondents preparing to go live. It's part breaking news, part relay race, part free cardio.This tradition comes at a very digital time, when the Supreme Court posts opinions online — and PDFs are often available within moments of a ruling. I mean, the rule of birthright citizenship was posted online by SCOTUS the moment it was announced. Plus, during the pandemic (March 2020 to June 2022), the Court actually released opinions exclusively online. Once that became normalized, the old paper relay started to feel less like a breaking-news necessity and more like a relic from another media era. After this change, the concept was declared extinct. But the ritual clearly still has legs (pun intended), and the "run" is back, both IRL and online. Many online are admiring the tradition — some to the point of tears — and the interns' hustle. Others find it absurd and intense. Some are tagging sneaker brands, begging them to turn the scene into an ad. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. In a world where every major ruling instantly becomes a PDF, a push alert, a live blog, and a social post, there's something refreshing about watching young people sprint through the streets in business casual attire, driven purely by their love of breaking news.

Natalie Tran has spent most of her life performing. She started acting at just 5 years old, built a career in theater and film, and eventually found an unexpected creative outlet through short-form videos on TikTok. But rather than replacing her acting ambitions, content creation has become a springboard for something bigger.In this conversation with Mashable Culture Editor Crystal Bell at VidCon 2026, Tran reflects on what happened after one of her comedy sketches went viral and how she turned that momentum into a sustainable creative career. She explains why making short-form videos taught her the fundamentals of directing, editing, and storytelling, how those skills carried over into writing and directing her first short film, Passion Project, and why she believes creators are increasingly carving out their own path into film and television.Tran also shares her philosophy on authenticity, balancing sketch comedy with her off-camera personality, navigating comments and metrics, and why she thinks passion — not algorithms — is still the most important ingredient for building a lasting career online.Watch the full interview above.

Taylor Swift's latest era? Bridal. For months, fans have wondered when Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce would finally say "I do" after announcing their engagement last August. This week, those questions shifted into overdrive as reports of heightened security and elaborate preparations around New York City's iconic Madison Square Garden fueled speculation that the wedding is just days away. The timing has only added to the frenzy — the celebration is rumored to coincide with Fourth of July weekend, a holiday Swift has long called one of her favorites and famously celebrates with her star-studded Rhode Island parties. SEE ALSO: In defense of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s rumored MSG wedding Whether you're a Swiftie refreshing your feed for to-the-minute updates or someone who just opened X to find "Taylor wedding" trending, it's easy to feel like you've missed a chapter.The reports have been plentiful. The theories, even more so. Here's everything we know about the rumored wedding weekend, along with what hasn't been confirmed yet.Is Taylor Swift getting married this weekend?It certainly seems that way. After months of speculation following their engagement, multiple reports now point to the 4th of July weekend as the couple's long-awaited wedding celebration. On Wednesday, the Associated Press reported that Swift and Kelce are expected to wed at Madison Square Garden on Friday evening, with a more intimate rehearsal dinner planned for Thursday night. People, meanwhile, has spent the week chronicling the wedding preparations, reporting everything from a black-tie dress code and no-phone policy to celebrity guests arriving in New York ahead of the festivities. The preparations around New York City's Madison Square Garden have only fueled the excitement, as workers wearing Taylor Swift t-shirts have been spotted unloading equipment from trucks outside the Manhattan arena. That said, neither Swift nor Kelce has publicly confirmed a wedding date or venue. As with nearly every milestone in their relationship, the couple appears to be keeping the biggest details under wraps until they're ready to share them.Why is Madison Square Garden at the center of the wedding rumors?If you've seen Madison Square Garden trending alongside Swift's name, you're not imagining things.The iconic arena has become the focal point of wedding speculation after reports of extensive event preparations, increased security measures, and activity surrounding the venue began circulating online. Fans quickly connected the dots, wondering whether one of the world's most recognizable entertainment venues could also become the backdrop for the biggest celebrity wedding of the year. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani even addressed the rumors during a recent press conference about the extreme heat wave hitting the city this weekend. "My recommendation to all New Yorkers is to stay inside and stay cool. And if you happen to be getting married at Madison Square Garden, you will be staying inside, and you will be staying cool. And I think it's a good example to set for the city at large."The mayor followed up with an Instagram post advising New Yorkers on ways to beat the heat. "Here’s what you should know about the historic heat wave headed our way," the post read. "Especially if you’re (hypothetically) having your wedding at MSG this weekend."Whether the Garden is hosting the ceremony itself, part of the festivities, or simply another event tied to the wedding weekend remains unconfirmed. Who's rumored to be attending Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding?A Taylor Swift wedding was never going to be a quiet affair, at least on the internet. And the star-studded, 1000-person guest list is shaping up to be almost as headline-worthy as the wedding itself.Several attendees have either confirmed their invitations or have been identified through reporting. Among them are San Francisco 49er George Kittle, Claire Kittle, Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid, Graham Norton, and Suki Waterhouse. Other close friends, including Ed Sheeran and Zoë Kravitz, are widely expected to attend, though their invitations haven't been publicly confirmed.One notable absence? Prince William and Catherine, Princess of Wales. After weeks of speculation, People reported that the Prince and Princess of Wales won't be making the trip to New York after all. However, the kings of New York — aka the Knicks starting five — reportedly did make the guest list. Who else makes the final guest list remains one of the weekend's biggest mysteries. With Swift's decades-long friendships across music, film, and television, and Kelce's ties to the NFL, fans are expecting no shortage of A-list arrivals. We'll be on the lookout for Swift's childhood BFF Abigail Anderson. What has Taylor Swift actually confirmed?Officially? Almost nothing. That's become something of a pattern for Swift. While fans have become experts at decoding Easter eggs, the singer has increasingly chosen to share life's biggest milestones on her own terms — and often after the fact. View this post on Instagram Beyond announcing their engagement, neither Swift nor Kelce has publicly shared details about wedding plans, including the date, venue, or ceremony. Instead, much of what the public knows has come from reporting by outlets including the Associated Press, The New York Times, and People, which have pieced together details from permits, venue preparations, and sources familiar with the celebration. Until Swift or Kelce makes it official, everything falls on a spectrum from credible reporting to enthusiastic internet detective work.When will we know for sure?Probably when Taylor Swift wants us to.According to People, guests have been instructed to follow a strict no-phone policy, with phones reportedly being collected upon arrival. Combined with the event's extensive security measures, that could make this one of the rare celebrity weddings where very little leaks in real time.Of course, this is Taylor Swift we're talking about. If anyone can pull off one of the year's most anticipated events without the internet immediately spoiling it, it's probably her.Until then, the wedding remains exactly where Swift has always seemed most comfortable: at the center of the internet's attention, with millions of people trying to decode the plan while the mastermind stays one step ahead.

It seems like OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has learned a lesson from Intel. If you want the Trump administration to back off your company, simply provide them with an ownership stake in it. According to a new report from the Financial Times, OpenAI, which is currently valued at $854 billion, is currently in early talks to give the U.S. government a five percent stake in the company. OpenAI CEO Altman has reportedly discussed the stake buy-in as a way to ease political pressure from Trump and his administration, according to the Financial Times report, which also states Altman has reportedly argued that doing so will also "share the upside of AI" with the public.The White House has increasingly involved itself in matters related to the release of new AI models in recent months. The Trump administration reportedly requested that OpenAI stagger its future AI model releases, starting with the upcoming GPT 5.6. The U.S. government wants OpenAI to first release new AI models to a select group of close partners before any public launches.Last month, the Trump administration forced OpenAI competitor Anthropic to remove its powerful new Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models from public use. The administration issued an export control directive ordering a ban on foreign nationals using the models. To comply with the government order, Anthropic suspended the models entirely.The Trump administration lifted the order on Wednesday following negotiations with Anthropic, allowing the company to make the models available to the public again. Anthropic reportedly agreed to work with the U.S. government on future AI model releases.Anthropic and the Trump administration have openly feuded before regarding the use of AI models. Earlier this year, the Trump administration designated Anthropic a "supply-chain risk" to national security after disagreements arose over how the U.S. government could use Anthropic's AI models. OpenAI is likely seeking to avoid similar confrontations with the U.S. government as it prepares to go public in the near future.Last summer, President Donald Trump openly called for the resignation of Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan. However, Trump seemingly backed off after the U.S. government took a 10 percent stake in the chipmaker.

After eight long years, it looks like Google is finally going to have to pay off that big EU fine.Reuters reported that the Court of Justice of the European Union has ruled against Google in its latest attempt to appeal a massive €4.1 billion fine initially imposed in 2018. The EU's reasoning then and now was that Google used the Android operating system in anti-competitive ways, such as heavily incentivizing users to use Google Search and Chrome on new Android devices. SEE ALSO: Google launches Nano Banana 2 Lite and Gemini Omni Flash. How to try them now Google did change some of its policies over the years to duck and weave additional EU penalties, but the fine (which comes in at nearly $5 billion in U.S. dollars) is still in place, and now that Google has lost this latest appeal, it might not have much of a choice but to pay it. The "good" news for Google is that, due to a 2022 decision, the fine was cut down from €4.34 billion to €4.1 billion.At any rate, Google isn't the first U.S. tech company to learn that the EU is serious about antitrust matters, and it probably won't be the last.
