The recent dating rumours surrounding Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been unavoidable, particularly due to the pop star attending two of the NFL player's recent games - but there is a conspiracy theory circulating about her latest appearance. Cheering from the standings, the 33-year-old appeared to be in her element when she watched the Kansas City Chiefs against the Chicago Bears on September 24. Then she was spotted at MetLife Stadium on Monday (October 2) watching the Super Bowl winners defeat the New York Jets with celebrity pals such as Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and Sophie Turner. But it's this latest game that has the conspiracy theorists convinced that she attended the New York Jets game to detract from criticisms of her use of private jets. Confused on how this has been deduced? Well, the theory is all about SEO and search results. Basically, some theorise that Swift's recent football game attendance means that when people search "Taylor Swift jets" the latest reports of her at the match will appear at the top of the search results, rather than links to data concerning her use of private jets. Molly McPherson, a pop culture PR expert described the move as "brilliant" on TikTok. "Of course, she went to the Jets game for SEO reputation busting. So when you Google 'Taylor Swift and the Jets' you don't get the story about her jet emissions - which most of the articles were digital by the way - you're gonna get Taylor Swift at the Jets game," she said. @mollybmcpherson #stitch with @underthepink (Kristen) Now we have Taylor Swift’s OFFICIAL Response to the Private Jet CO2 Emission Plane problem from 2022. #taylor #taylorswift #seo #pr #publicrelations #fyp #prlady #thejets #nfl #airplane #crisiscommunication Swift has two multi-million dollar planes: a Dassault Falcon 7X and a Dassault Falcon 900, Insider reported and they have spent around 166 hours (seven days) flying back and forth from Swift's Eras Tour shows since March, according to aircraft-tracking website JetSpy. Last year, the Anti-Hero singer came under fire after sustainability marketing firm Yard revealed Swift’s private jet had emitted 8,293.54 tonnes of carbon dioxide, topping the list of celebrities with the highest amount of carbon emissions due to this. In the data breakdown, Swift had reportedly taken 170 trips and travelled an average of about 140 miles per flight. However, Swift's representatives defended her at the time and told the media that her private jet also gets loaned out to other people. “Taylor’s jet is loaned out regularly to other individuals,” a spokesperson said. “To attribute most or all of these trips to her is blatantly incorrect.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Rishi Sunak's wife is a billionaire's daughter who has divided her life between three continents.

Leonardo DiCaprio was spotted in Paris with his rumoured new girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti – at the same time as nine of his 'exes'. The Hollywood actor attended Paris Fashion Week (September 25 - October 3) while his current interest Ceretti featured on the Chanel catwalk – alongside Gigi Hadid, who he has recently been linked to. Camila Morrone, who the Titanic star dated for four years, was in the front row. Then there were supermodels Helena Christensen, Toni Garrn, Naomi Campbell, Virginie Ledoyen, Eva Herzigová, and Amber Valletta, who have been rumoured love interests in the past years. In other Paris Fashion Week news, Jamie Lee Curtis publicly praised Pamela Anderson for attending a Vivienne Westwood show completely barefaced. Earlier this week, the Baywatch actress embraced her natural beauty, with Curtis writing: "THE NATURAL BEAUTY REVOLUTION HAS OFFICIALLY BEGUN! "Pamela Anderson in the middle of fashion week with so many pressures and postures, and and and, this woman showed up and claimed her seat at the table with nothing on her face," she continued. "I am so impressed and floored by this act of courage and rebellion." Speaking to Elle last year, Anderson said the makeup-free decision came after her makeup artist Alexis Vogel died from breast cancer. "She was the best. And since then, I just felt, without Alexis, it's just better for me not to wear makeup," she said, adding that her beauty approach is now more "freeing, and fun, and a little rebellious."

Tom Hanks has warned fans to "beware" of a new advert in which he apparently stars. The Hollywood actor revealed that while the "man" in the ad may look like him, it's all just a trick of artificial intelligence. Hanks has previously been vocal with his concerns about AI and how it might make use of famous figures. Now, it seems his concerns were valid. In a post to Instagram, Hank shared a screenshot of the ad, with overlaid text reading: “BEWARE!! There’s a video out there promoting some dental plan with an AI version of me. I have nothing to do with it.” It comes amid the ongoing strikes in Hollywood in which both actors and writers have expressed concerns about AI and its potential impact on their jobs. Speaking on British comedian Adam Buxton’s podcast, recorded on 18 April, days before the Hollywood writers’ strike began, Hanks discussed the use of AI in the industry. “We saw this coming. We saw that there was going to be this ability to take zeros and ones inside a computer and turn it into a face and a character," he explained. "Now that has only grown a billionfold since then, and we see it everywhere. “I can tell you that there [are] discussions going on in all of the guilds, all of the agencies, and all of the legal firms to come up with the legal ramifications of my face and my voice – and everybody else’s – being our intellectual property. “Right now if I wanted to, I could get together and pitch a series of seven movies that would star me in them in which I would be 32 years old from now until kingdom come. Anybody can now recreate themselves at any age they are by way of AI or deepfake technology.” He added that he was concerned his likeness could be used in the future after he’s gone. Hanks said: “I could be hit by a bus tomorrow, and that’s it, but performances can go on and on and on and on. And outside of the understanding that it’s been done with AI or deepfake, there’ll be nothing to tell you that it’s not me and me alone. “And it’s going to have some degree of lifelike quality. That’s certainly an artistic challenge, but it’s also a legal one.” The US writers’ strike ended last week after five months, following an agreement being reached between The Writers Guild of America and the major Hollywood studios. However, the actors’ strike remains ongoing. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
