Travis Kelce Admits He Got ‘Absolutely S***-Faced’ at Tight End University
Travis Kelce enjoyed himself a little too much when he went back to school at Tight End University last week.
Kelce, 35, realized the error of his ways after overindulging at the TEU welcome party in Nashville on Monday, June 23, which featured a surprise performance from his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
“I’m struggling out there Day 2,” Kelce said Tuesday, July 1, on the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast. “I am leaking Bud Lights. I am just trying to figure out how I am going to explain a route concept. I pull up absolutely s***-faced from the night before.”
Upon arrival, Kelce was immediately reminded that he had work to do thanks to former Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen, who created Tight End U with Kelce and San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle.
Travis Kelce Addresses Claims He and Taylor Swift Are Seeking ‘Attention’
“Greg comes up to me and he’s like, ‘Alright, Travis. You’ve got 30 minutes.,’” Kelce said.
The Kansas City Chiefs star remembered thinking, “Thirty minutes of what?”
Luckily, Kelce made it through his on-field mentoring session in one piece and lived to tell some encouraging tales from the Tight End U’s fifth annual gathering.
“A lot of the tight ends are like, ‘Whatever you need, I’m here for the good time. I’m one of the hardest workers, but at the same time, I’m here to have some f***ing fun,’” Kelce said on the podcast. “I feel like naturally that’s where the tight end world is. So you get those guys from every single team, when you bring them together, it’s just a big kick it.”
While Kelce acknowledged the weekend has become “less and less about football,” he said it’s “just cool to see 80 tight ends in the NFL come together for a weekend. It blows my f***in’ mind.”

“Sure enough, when you’re getting starting tight ends from all over the place, it feels like it’s an all-star atmosphere,” he explained. “Like an all-star weekend atmosphere, a Pro Bowl weekend atmosphere. It’s really taken off into one of my favorite three days before the season even starts. S***’s fun.”
Kelce said the relaxed, celebratory vibe of Tight End U helps remind him — and all of the other participants — why they love football so much in the first place.
“It’s reassuring,” he said. “Because the s*** in the building can get so tedious and focused and so serious.”
Kelce added, “You see that everybody has these ups and downs, but you can still have fun doing this s***.”

Travis Kelce Hints Some ‘Grotesquerie’ Costars Thought He Didn’t Belong
Travis Kelce recalled feeling out of place on the Grotesquerie set not just because it was his first major acting role — but because of how some of the other actors looked at him.
During the Tuesday, July 1, episode of the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast, Kelce, 35, was asked about the challenges of playing Ed Laclan (a.k.a Fast Eddie) on FX’s Grotesquerie.
“[It was] not necessarily that it wasn’t for me. I was part of a really good cast. I think I got a lot of help and a lot of pointers from them,” he noted. “So they helped make me feel comfortable in the moment.”
Kelce admitted “preparation” was his biggest issue, adding, “I’m so prepared for an NFL game. I get an entire week to figure out a scheme of how I’m going to attack somebody and how I’m going to, like, handle certain specific situations. When you go into acting, I just don’t feel as prepared.”
Travis Kelce's Most Outrageous Lines From 'Grotesquerie'
While filming Ryan Murphy’s horror show, Kelce found himself struggling to adjust to life on set.
“I don’t know that professionalism before the cameras are on. I just hadn’t found that yet. I’m just going over the lines and I thought I could work something out,” he continued. “How many times am I going to read this same line and think that. You know what I mean? I gotta find the professional [in me].”

Kelce was introduced early in the season, which premiered in October 2024, as an orderly named Ed who worked at the same hospital where Lois’ (Niecy Nash-Betts) husband, Marshall (Courtney B. Vance), was being treated after falling into a coma. Ed and Lois developed a flirtation but didn’t act on their feelings. He subsequently fell in love with Lois and Marshall’s daughter, Merritt (Raven Goodwin) before viewers learned none of it was real.
Grotesquerie shocked Us more than halfway through the season with the reveal that Lois was the one in the coma. As a result, everything shown before episode 7 was a sequence of dreams she was having while unconscious in the hospital, and Kelce embodied a second character.
“Every single director that I met on set, I was just telling them, ‘Coach me up. I’m here to be coached. If I suck, tell me I suck and tell me how I can be better. I’ll take all the criticism. I don’t give a f***,’” Kelce recalled on Tuesday. “I was big on if a scene would happen and the directors were watching the scene over to see if they like it or not or see what we could do different, I would hurry up and go over there to watch some film real quick.”
Kelce went on to say that he didn’t feel like he “grasped the acting world yet.” Teasing Kelce for being “out of place,” the cohosts asked whether other actors questioned his presence on the show’s set.

“I felt those eyes,” Kelce admitted. “I felt those eyes a little bit.”
The athlete didn’t get specific, but Nash-Betts, 55, previously praised his work on the show. “The blessing about this particular show for an actor is that most of the characters play a duality,” she joked during an exclusive interview with Us Weekly in October 2024. “Travis went from being a charming person who worked at the hospital to being down and out on his luck guy who has a mullet.”
Nash-Betts recalled making an effort to ensure Kelce felt supported on set.
“I just wanted to make sure I was very, very present for him in this new space. [He was] coming into the acting world and was just getting baptized in [the acting world] real quick,” she added. “[Grotesquerie] is going to come with some things that maybe other shows don’t present so I just wanted to make sure he felt covered. I wanted to make sure we had time to rehearse.”
Nash-Betts also opened up about building an onscreen chemistry with Kelce, quipping, “I was born to flirt, so that part is easy.”

Mormon Wives' Layla Addresses Weight Concerns, Recalls Her Self-Harm Issues
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Layla Taylor broke her silence about concern over her weight — and opened up about her past mental health struggles that led to self-harm and attempts to take her own life.
During the Hulu special, which started streaming on Tuesday, July 1, host Nick Viall revealed that Layla, 24, spoke out about her issues that never aired on the show. A never-before-scene clip showed Layla addressing comments about her body.
“I’ve been skinny my whole life though. I feel like everyone’s concerned right now but I’ve been skinny my whole entire life,” Layla told Demi Engemann before confirming she still has issues with body dysmorphia. “It’s like when you guys tell me, “Oh, you used to look like a healthy weight.’ When you have an eating disorder, the word ‘healthy’ triggers me.”
Layla said being told she looks “tiny” encourages her eating disorder, adding, “For some reason, in my twisted brain I think I am going down the right track. That gives me an endorphin rush. Also just living in Utah, the need to chase perfection — when it’s not attainable — is such a bad thing here.”
‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Then vs. Now: How Cast Looked Pre-Hulu Show
While opening up to Demi, 30, Layla showed her scars on her wrists from past self-harm attempts.
“They’re kind of visible but they’re not too bad. I feel like I’m more insecure about those and it’s just an image thing here,” she continued. “Because someone looks at them and they don’t recognize what I’ve struggled with. They look at me and they judge.”
Layla started to cry at the reunion while elaborating on her mental health journey.

“It is a hard thing for me to talk about. I’ve dealt with really bad depression and anxiety my whole entire life. I have attempted to take my life multiple times and thought that I’d be better off dead than living the life that I do,” she told her costars, who were visibly emotional. “It just goes back to just never feeling like I’m enough. I was told that a lot growing up. That’s why I self-harm too.”
After Nick, 44, asked how Layla is doing now, she confirmed that she has been “better” in recent months.
“I haven’t self-harmed in a long time, which is good. I got my scars removed and I’m trying to move past that. One of the reasons why I wanted to get my scars removed is because my boys noticed it too,” Layla, who shares two sons with ex-husband Clayton Wessel, recalled. “I was like, ‘That’s not me just falling. That was me doing something to myself.’”
She continued: “My kids noticed it and it could affect them. So that’s what snapped me out of it and got me to stop. I don’t want to give my kids traumas because I’m dealing with it and I need to be strong for them.”
Lucy Hale and More Stars Who Have Battled Eating Disorders
Mayci Neeley’s husband, Jacob Neeley, was noticeably affected by what Layla shared. When asked by Nick why he was crying, Jacob said he was thinking about his and Mayci’s children.
“I’m just a girl dad,” Jacob, who shares son Hudson, daughter Harlow, and is currently expecting a third baby with Mayci, 29, said.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives reunion is currently streaming on Hulu.
If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available. Call or text 988 or chat at 988lifeline.org. If you or someone you know struggles with an eating disorder, visit the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa & Associated Disorders (ANAD) website or call their hotline at (888)-375-7767 to get help.

Savannah Guthrie Reveals Why She Didn't Write About Divorce in Book
Savannah Guthrie stood her ground about what personal matters she wanted to write about in her book — and her divorce was off the table.
“I don’t want to talk about getting divorced,” the journalist, 53, told host Monica Lewinsky on the Tuesday, July 1, episode of her “Reclaiming” podcast. “It was horrible, sad and it broke my heart. It took me years to recover. I’m not blaming anyone, but I really don’t want to get into it.”
Guthrie was previously married to Mark Orchard from 2005 to 2009 before she found The One with Michael Feldman. Feldman and the Today host wed in 2014 and share two children, Vale, 10, and Charley, 8.
Last year, Guthrie published Mostly What God Does, which included a series of personal essays broaching the subjects of faith, love, presence, grace, hope, gratitude and more. The spiritual book also included a disclaimer that let readers know that Gurthie wasn’t going to touch on some personal matters.
Savannah Guthrie's Ups and Downs Over the Years
“The disclaimer was basically like, ‘Look, if you think you’re going to write about faith and try to — certainly not answer — but discuss some of these hardest questions. Despite the fact the picture I’ve just drawn … I’m not writing a whitewash,’” she reflected. “I tried to at least talk about some of the hardest subjects there are about loss and about injustice. I try to take on all those things and just examine them and reflect on them — certainly not solve them.”
Guthrie acknowledged that she’s nowhere near being a “theologian” and occasionally attended “vacation bible school.”
“I’m just a lay person, so take it with a grain,” she said. “But also you might be wondering, it seems like you, right now, have it all kind of going for you. You’re married, you’ve got these two kids, you got this great job, like what problems do you have? So I wanted to say I have experienced adversity, but I don’t really want to tell you about the depths of that. Because some of that was just too personal and too embarrassing.”
While Guthrie set a boundary on what she would and wouldn’t share, she did include some “embarrassing” journal entries and notes. She also noted that she doesn’t believe in a “hierarchy of pain” as all people have their struggles.
“I’m not gonna say who had it worse,” she said. “If we did, I wouldn’t be in the top … but I have had my moments and I have had my sadnesses.”

In her disclaimer, Guthrie advised readers not to drive themselves “crazy” trying to pinpoint what she was talking about.
“Look, some things happened and when I’m writing about them, this isn’t in a vacuum, but I don’t want to go there … I don’t want to give you the gory details, but I do want to share with you,” she explained. “I understand you might have these questions, and maybe this won’t be enough for you, but I just felt like I had to.”
Guthrie added that when she was in the writing process, she never got any “pushback” on including the disclaimer.

Travis Kelce: ‘SNL’ Was Hard Because I ‘Can’t Really Read That Well’
Going live from New York on Saturday night is easier said than done.
Although Travis Kelce’s hosting gig on Saturday Night Live may have looked painless, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said there were some obstacles he faced before the show began.
“The writers’ rooms were fun because you’re just getting pitched ideas,” Kelce, 35, shared on the Tuesday, July 1, episode of the “Bussin’ With the Boys” podcast. “The table reading — for a guy that can’t really read that well — it was kind of a f*** situation. I felt like I was just trying to get through the reading instead of actually acting out and giving it a voice and giving it a character and things like that.”
Instead of savoring the moment, Kelce joked that he was just focused on “don’t f***ing skip this line.”
Travis Kelce Says Filming 'Happy Gilmore 2' Was a 'Hefty Load' of Work
“I’m more of an audio guy,” he added with a laugh. “The table read was the hardest f***ing part.”
In March 2023, Kelce made his hosting debut on Saturday Night Live and appeared in a variety of sketches, including “Garrett from Hinge,” “Straight Male Friend” and “American Girl Cafe.”
Looking back on the experience, the NFL player called it one “crazy ride.”
“It was just a fun roller-coaster,” he told hosts Will Compton and Taylor Lewan. “You’re there all week, up to 2 and 3 in the morning just trying to knock stuff out, do some of the prerecorded stuff. That was insane. That was a crazy ride. That was fun.”
Before the NFL kicks off a new season in September, Kelce will make a guest star appearance in Netflix’s highly anticipated movie Happy Gilmore 2.
While some fans are speculating that this could be the start of Kelce’s long acting career, the Super Bowl champion said he’s much more interested in small roles.
Breaking Down Travis Kelce's Career Moves Off the Football Field
“That’s where I see myself kind of, those fun cameos where I get a role that’s not necessarily my name in a movie or something like that, and I’ll just kind of play a role,” he explained. “In Happy Gilmore, I’m a waiter. That’s a fun-ass f***ing role in a movie with guys like Adam Sandler, who I’ve loved my entire life. I’d kill to do movies like that for the rest of my life.”
When asked whether he’d like to sign up for a big TV show, Kelce acknowledged he’s not ready to commit given it’s a “lot of work.”
“It’s a career field I haven’t gotten comfortable with yet,” he added. “The silly stuff, the funny stuff, I just feel so much more comfortable.”

Julie Chrisley Says Fame Led to ‘Overwhelming’ 1st Few Days in Prison
Julie Chrisley’s prison stay was way different than what her husband, Todd Chrisley, experienced.
While Todd, 56, said he was incarcerated in a “busted, broke little summer camp,” their daughter Savannah Chrisley noted that Julie’s prison was on the “scary” side.
“I was [in] a satellite camp off of a federal medical center, which housed all custody levels,” Julie, 52, explained during the Tuesday, July 1, episode of Savannah’s “Unlocked” podcast. “So, there was the fence and the razor wire and the security there. Where I was in particular there wasn’t, but it was right next door to it.”
Both Todd and Julie reported to prison in January 2023 after being convicted on federal tax evasion and fraud charges the prior year. While Todd was housed in FPC Pensacola in Florida, Julie reported to the Federal Medical Center Lexington in Kentucky. They were pardoned by President Donald Trump and released from prison in May.
Julie Chrisley Says Her Health Was 'Deteriorating' in Prison
Julie told Savannah, 27, that she “was scared” of going into prison because she “didn’t know what to expect.” Once inside, Julie recalled the other inmates knowing who she was.
The first woman she encountered in the prison transport van told Julie she was going to “hate” life behind bars.
“I walked in the door and then I was just bombarded,” Julie recalled. “I walk in the door, there was someone there to show me where to go. I didn’t know at the time, but a girl got me to the room, got me a bed — a nice bed, actually — she ended up being my bunkie later on.”
She added, “It was very overwhelming because people kept coming in, and because I was new, and people knew who I was. It was really overwhelming for the first few days for me.”
Julie said there were “lots of arguments” in her prison, but Todd said he didn’t have that experience. However, she didn’t have any personal problems while behind bars.
Julie Chrisley’s Prison Time: Everything to Know About Life on the Inside
“Because you was up there being Miss Pollyanna, ‘Yes ma’am. Yes ma’am,’” Todd said of his wife.
Savannah did recall one instance where a cafeteria worker allegedly locked Julie in the cafeteria.
“Here’s the thing, only your mother would get locked in a cafeteria. Nobody else does dumb s*** like that. I never even went in our cafeteria,” Todd said. Savannah replied, “He did it on purpose.”
Julie, meanwhile, chimed in and said the employee was “just a miserable human being.”
“They all are,” Todd added. “I was surrounded by miserable human beings, and every day I got up and it was my sole intent to make their life even more miserable because they were there to make our lives miserable.”

Natalie Portman’s Son Surprises Twitch Star By FaceTiming His Famous Mom
Natalie Portman’s 14-year-old son, Aleph, made a rare on camera appearance on Twitch star Marlon Lundgren Garcia’s channel — and even called up his famous mother.
On Sunday, June 29, Garcia, 23, shared a video via his Instagram page of him and Aleph meeting on the sidelines of a soccer field with friends. While Aleph was introducing himself, he asked if Garcia knew of Portman, 44.
“No, I don’t think so, why?” Garcia responded before Aleph brought up that his mom was in Star Wars. “Padmé Amidala? Well, that’s my mom. Can you give a shout-out to my mom?”
Aleph then went to FaceTime his mom and introduced him to Garcia, who was in disbelief.
Natalie Portman Explains Why She Doesn’t Think Kids Should Be Actors
“Hi, I’m sorry for disturbing you, I just want to say hi real quick,” Garcia told Portman. “I’m here with your son. We’re about to play a little football.”
Although Portman couldn’t hear what Garcia was saying, she responded graciously, telling him she hopes he “has a great day.”

“I appreciate you. … Nice meeting you,” Garcia concluded the call before telling the camera that he had a crush on Portman while growing up. “Super respectfully, while I was growing up we used to watch Star Wars very heavily, she was my biggest crush bro. Very beautiful woman. Very good son. … That’s insane.”
Portman shares Aleph and daughter Amalia, 8, with ex-husband Benjamin Millepied.
The actress’ surprise phone call comes nearly three months after she gave a rare insight into her life raising her two children.
Natalie Portman's Dating History: Benjamin Millepied and More
“My kids are always a source of excitement, because you just see them develop into the individuals they are,” she told Jenna Ortega in an Interview magazine profile in April. “And also, I’ve been spending a lot of time with my friends, with their kids and my kids; that’s pretty fun.”
When asked if having kids helped her find a “balance” between her professional and private life, Portman noted that that wasn’t her “motivation” for starting a family.

“I was just excited to have kids, and with a person that I was in love with. But it’s really important to have people in your life who keep you on the ground,” she shared with the outlet.
Portman and Millepied, 47, met on the set of Black Swan in 2009 and welcomed Aleph in June 2011 before tying the knot in August 2012. The twosome welcomed Amalia in 2017 before calling it quits in 2023, reportedly due to Millepied allegedly having an affair.
Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millepied Spotted for 1st Time Since Split
Nearly one year after Portman and Millipied’s divorce was finalized, a source told Us Weekly that Portman has a new relationship with music producer Tanguy Destable.
“Natalie and Tanguy have been seeing each other for a few months,” the insider shared, adding that it hasn’t been “too long, but they are having a great time together” and that Destable, 44, is “very outgoing and boisterous” and “is really into” Portman.
