 Kevin Mazur/Getty ImagesTaylor Swift thanked her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, after winning the top prize at the MTV Video Music Awards Wednesday night, in a rare vocal nod to their very public partnership.
"I would always hear someone cheering and ‘whoooo' from across the studio where we were shooting it," said Swift in an acceptance speech, for Video of the Year which she won after self-directing the video for her song "Fortnight." "And that one person was my boyfriend Travis. Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic."
The mere mention of Kelce's name prompted a round of elated shrieks and screams from Swift fans in attendance, with the decibel volume likely on par with the Chief's Arrowhead Stadium crowds. The singer, fresh off an endorsement of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, added she "will always remember" Kelce's jovial attitude on the shoot.

 Daily Beast illustration Eric Faison / Getty / ReutersA massive rift within former President Donald Trump's inner circle exploded into the open Wednesday night, exposing tensions running high inside MAGAworld after their candidate's debate disaster.
Two of Trump's most trusted allies went for each other in a spectacular and public spat after it emerged that far-right commentator Laura Loomer had accompanied Trump on a private plane to the debate.
Axios reported on Thursday that Loomer had been "egging him on" during the flight after his other advisors urged caution and tried to convince Trump to stick to messages on key voter concerns like the economy instead of pushing old grievances and sharing easily debunked conspiracies such as Haitian immigrants eating people's pets.

 Christian Petersen/Getty ImagesPatrick Mahomes is staying out of whatever beef might be brewing between Donald Trump and his wife's bestie.
Taylor Swift, the blindingly famous popstar who just so happens to be dating Mahomes' Kansas City Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce, endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for president in the minutes after Tuesday night's debate.
Trump didn't take too kindly to the slight. "She seems to always endorse a Democrat. And she'll probably pay a price for it in the marketplace," he sniffed in a phone interview with Fox News on Wednesday.

We speak with consumer advocate Ralph Nader and Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz about Tuesday's debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. Stiglitz says Trump's policies, including a plan for major new tariffs, would result in "more inflation and slower growth" and wreak havoc on the U.S. economy. Nader says that while "it's easy to look good against Trump," Harris is not fundamentally challenging corporate greed, the military-industrial complex, environmental destruction and more.

 Adam Gray/REUTERSBased on the first batches of polls released in the day following Tuesday night's presidential debate, Democratic nominee Kamala Harris appears to have outperformed Donald Trump in the eyes of viewers, who totaled over 57.75 million last night.
In three polls so far collected by the polling aggregation site 538, a majority of people who watched the debate said that Harris had won. On average, among the polls conducted by CNN, YouGov and SoCal Strategies which 538 cited, 57 percent of respondents said that Harris won, compared to 34 percent who favored Trump. Snap polls released in the debate's immediate aftermath fell broadly in the same way.
(In an interview following the debate, however, Trump told CNN that his performance had earned him 92, 86, and 77 percent approval or preference ratings in three polls provided to him. He did not cite the polls to which he was referring.)
