Taylor Momsen reunited with “Gossip Girl” star Penn Badgley for the first time since the 2012 series finale of The CW teen drama, appearing on the Sept. 6 episode of “Podcrushed,” Badgley’s SiriusXM podcast with Nava Kavelin and Sophie Ansari.

Kelsea Ballerini took being a Taylor Swift superfan to a whole new level on March 17. The country singer paused her own concert to ask attendees if they were "stalking the Eras tour" for updates, because she had a big question about the setlist that she posed to the audience in a TikTok shared by a fan.
Thankfully, Ballerini's fans are multitaskers. "Can I just level with you for a minute?" the "Blindsided" singer asked the crowd who turned out to see her in Atlantic City, NJ. "Is anyone stalking the Eras Tour? Has it started?"
The crowd's cheers served as a resounding yes, which led Ballerini to get right to the point. "I'm gonna stalk it after this, but I have one question. Is 'Cruel Summer' on the setlist?" When her fans confirmed that Swift did perform the beloved song from 2019's "Lover," she was ready to resume her own concert.
