Our apologies, but there is no possible way we could calm down right now. Taylor Swift fans, who are the best detectives in the business, just shared a new theory with the world and honestly, it’s pretty convincing. The 29-year-old musician sparked engagement rumors with her notorious private BF (excuse me, fiance!!) Joe Alwyn while dropping details about her upcoming album, Lover . Swift chose to reveal some lyrics from a track with Vogue in her September cover story, which was released on Thursday, August 8, and swifties are losing it because they think she’s hinting at an engagement . The lyrics of question read: “My heart’s been borrowed and yours has been blue. All’s well that ends well to end up with you.” Any Pinterest user out there knows that this is a reference to the classic wedding tradition of wearing something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue. Fans immediately took to social media to converse over this newfound development. “my heart’s been borrowed and yours has been blue” is a reference to an engagement…. ya tuhanku…. TAYLOR SWIFT IS ENGAGED IM CRYING,” wrote one user. Another user said, “finding out @taylorswift13 is engaged is like finding out that i’m engaged too. sorry joe you get all of us too.” “SO IS TAYLOR ALISON SWIFT REALLY ENGAGED??” asked a third fan. And while the internet was busy entertaining the idea of Swift and Alwyn exchanging vows, Taylor subtly confirmed the accusations by “liking” some of the posts. “Wait…… my hearts been borrowed and yours has been blue….. something borrowed and something blue…. ma’am,” read a post that Taylor “liked” on Tumblr. Fans, of course, freaked out at Taylor’s gesture and began sharing screenshots of the image via Twitter. “Taylor Swift just casually confirmed she’s engaged to Joe Alwyn through a Tumblr,” another fan tweeted. The lovebirds, who are annoyingly successful at keeping their relationship on the DL , were first linked back in May 2017. And according to Us Weekly , Tay’s friends “are all talking about a proposal and how she really wants to marry Joe.” “Taylor really believes Joe is the one for her,” a second source previously dished. “She wants to get engaged to him. She just doesn’t feel as though she has to impress anyone at this point.” Joe and Taylor have yet to address these fan-based reports, but I suggest not getting too carried away at the prospect. I mean, if we had a nickel for every time Swifties theorized an engagement between the two , well we could probably pay for their wedding. Taylor’s 7th studio album Lover — and hopefully more clues! — will be available on August 23. View Slideshow: Joe Alwyn: 13 Things to Know About Taylor Swift’s New Squeeze

Source: Win McNamee / Getty Joe Biden Tells Iowa Crowd “Poor Kids Are Just As Bright And Just As Talented As White Kids” Former Vice President Joe Biden is effing up once again . According to NBC News , the Democratic presidential candidate visited a town hall on Thursday with the Asian and Latino Coalition in Des Moines, Iowa. When the conversation came to the discrimination faced by low-income students, Joe had this to say: “We have this notion that somehow if you’re poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as White kids.” Then he paused, and clarified with the quickness : “Wealthy kids, Black kids and Asian kids. No, I really mean it, but think how we think about it.” Mhm. *Taps mic for Joe in the back* Not all Black people or people of color are poor! There are a lot of white people who are poor despite White people still being generally more wealthy ! Peep Joe’s clip and some of the backlash below. Understand the inference in what @JoeBiden is saying when comparing “poor kids” (i.e. Black and brown children) to “white kids.” He sets white children as the standard of brilliance and talent. Thus, the benchmark of greatness that nonwhite people need to reach for is whiteness. https://t.co/CLEC4xk5fi — Bishop Talbert Swan (@TalbertSwan) August 9, 2019 Eventually, Kate Bedingfield, Biden’s deputy campaign manager, said that Biden “misspoke and immediately corrected himself during a refrain he often uses to make the point that all children deserve a fair shot, and children born into lower-income circumstances are just as smart as those born to wealthy parents.” Of course Trump hopped on any chance to drag a Democrat, pretending that he cares about poor people or people of color. When asked about Biden’s comments, Trump told a reporter that Biden is “not playing with a full deck.” “He made the comment, I said, ‘Whoa,’” Trump said. Trump on Biden's “poor kids” comment: “Joe Biden is not playing with a full deck. This is not somebody you can have as your president.” https://t.co/idScOroOzN pic.twitter.com/0n8TbU2wSi — CBS News (@CBSNews) August 9, 2019 Yea whatever. Get it together Biden.
Source: VALERIE MACON / Getty Beyoncé’s Fans Believe Her IG Photos Signal Another Pregnancy If Beyoncé decked out in purple, the color of royalty, standing in a garden, often symbolic of fertility, are meant to be a message that she’s with child yet again, then her devoted BeyHive deserves some credit for their interpretive analysis. Bey posted another set of pictures Thursday, some where her midsection seemed to be emphasized and others where she carried a small purple bag covering it, sending some fans into a frenzy that the singer was indeed relaying a message to her faithful fans. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Beyoncé (@beyonce) on Aug 7, 2019 at 7:55pm PDT One fan wrote: I’ve knocked up a lot of women in my life so trust me when I say Bey is pre-ga-nant Another agreed: She definitely pregnant you can see it in her face AND them ankles!! Child!!! I’m so ready for y’all world domination!! Have like 10 Carter babies!! Yet another fan declared the photo was meant to be a reveal: This is her pregnancy announcement. Y’all know Bey sneaky af. Others disagreed though: These woman had 3 whole babies 3 y’all and she is 37 years old …You really think the only possible way she could have a belly pouch is being pregnant?!?! If Beyoncé is pregnant, she’ll be 38 when her next child is born. The baby would join big sister Blue Ivy Carter, 7, and 2-year-old twins Rumi and Sir Carter and mark her 4th (and 5th? it could be another set of twins right?) child with husband Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter. Hit the flip for more photos and make sure you weigh in on whether or not you believe Bey is trying to tell us she’s knocked up.

We probably don’t need to tell you that Scientology is bizarrely popular in Hollywood — or that it doesn’t have the greatest reputation in the rest of the world. The reasons for this are as plentiful and insane as the Church’s millions of followers: We suppose it’s not surprising that a religion cooked up by a sci-fi writer and centered around space aliens and extreme narcissism would sell like hotcakes in Tinsel Town but wouldn’t necessarily play in Peoria. Still, as much as a cult that encourages its members to achieve success by battling the Martians in their soul seems tailor-made for actors and other film industry insiders, we’re always amazed by just how many celebs have fallen victim to Scientology’s bonkers claims. Take Brad Pitt, for example. These days, despite some rough patches in his personal life , Pitt remains so inarguably the epitome of cool that his dialogue in the Once Upon a Time In … Hollywood script probably consisted of nothing but the words “Brad says some cool Brad Pitt stuff.” But that wasn’t always the case. There was a time when Brad was just a young Missouran trying to make it in Hollywood and running into the same stumbling blocks as any young thespian. And it was during those early days of failed auditions and thwarted ambitions that the opportunistic bottomfeeders who operate the CoS almost got their hooks in young Mr. Pitt. Former Scientologist Sam Domingo — who was once daughter-in-law to famed opera singer Placido Domingo — recently spoke with Radar Online for a series of interviews in which she shares her most shocking memories from her 22 years as a member of the CoS. Domingo claims that in the early ’90s, Pitt and then-girlfriend Juliette Lewis were recruited for by the Church, but had the good sense to flee in the midst of a grueling “detoxification” program. “Brad was recruited in the 1990s during the time he and Juliette Lewis did a movie together,” Domingo says. “That’s when he was put on the purification rundown.” She described the “rundown” as “a program where they basically load you up with vitamins and you sit in the sauna and sweat for five hours a day.” “At least four kids have died on these programs,” Domingo claims. “Brad was doing the same one. He was in the sweat box.” But unlike Tom Cruise, who remains 100 percent in bed with these loonies , Brad apparently knows a fishy scene when he sees one. “He left! They weren’t able to keep Brad,” Domingo says. Thankfully, Pitt escaped and was able to portray one half of 2019’s most unforgettable onscreen duo (We’re talking, of course, about Cliff Boote and his attack dog, Brandy.), but Brad’s isn’t the only happy ending here. Juliette Lewis has enjoyed quite the memorable career herself, and it’s all because she too was able to break free from the Xenuites. “Juliette got in trouble because she got back into drugs,” Domingo claims. “She was in my course group refusing to study. She put her feet on the table and refused.” A stoned cult member with a penchant for showing the world the soles of feet? The fact that Juliette’s somehow not in the new Tarantino might be more baffling than any aspect of Scientology. View Slideshow: 13 Reasons to Be Glad You Never Slept With Brad Pitt
