Erin Andrews, Charissa Thompson Feel ‘Responsible’ for Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce Romance: ‘We’ll Take the Credit’

Two of America’s most-accomplished wing women — sports commentators Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson — visited The Tonight Show Thursday (May 23) to discuss their role in setting up golden couple Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce many months ago.

While speaking with host Jimmy Fallon about urging the pop star to give the Kansas City Chiefs tight end a chance during an August episode of their joint podcast Calm Down, Thompson joked, “Yes, Jimmy, we are responsible [for setting them up].”

“We’re friends with him, and how could you not be,” added Andrews. “The guy’s a time. He had mentioned on his podcast that he went to the show, had wanted to meet her afterwards, didn’t get the chance to. We just started talking about it on our podcast, saying, ‘Taylor, do this for America. Date him.’ The guy, he’s not ugly by any means.”

“We’ll take the credit,” Thompson concluded, laughing. “I just love both of them, and I’m so happy to see them happy.”

The interview comes several months after the two women sent a public message to Swift on their show, during which Andrews implored, “Taylor, I don’t know what you’re doing in your life right now besides rocking the world… please try our friend Travis, he is fantastic!” Kelce had previously shared his failed attempt at meeting the singer at her Kansas City Eras Tour stops on his New Heights pod.

Then, two months later, Swift attended her first-ever Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium, signaling to the world that she and the athlete had made things official. Shortly afterward, Kelce himself thanked Andrews and Thompson for their service, commenting on one of their October Instagram posts, “?? You two are something else!! ???? I owe you big time!!”

The 14-time Grammy winner has been a fixture at Chiefs games ever since, seeing the team through the entire 2023-24 season leading up to their victory against the San Francisco 49ers at this year’s Super Bowl. Speaking of, things came full circle on the day of the big game, with Swift showing up to Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas in a red jacket from Andrews’ own WEAR apparel line.

“Super Bowl Sunday, she walks in looking amazing,” the Fox Sports personality recalled to Fallon. “She threw that on and I lost my mind.”

Minnesota Timberwolves Overcome 20-Point Deficit To Send Denver Nuggets To Cancun, Xitter Reacts

Minnesota Timberwolves End The Denver Nuggets Playoff Run

The Denver Nuggets blew a golden opportunity and are now thinking about Cancun after the Minnesota Timberwolves ended their title defense run.

It took a historic 20-point comeback from the Minnesota Timberwolves over the Denver Nuggets to punch their ticket into the Western Conference Finals to play the Dallas Mavericks.

The Timberwolves’ Game 7 victory at Ball Arena in Denver was the punctuation mark on a story that began last year in a local bar that ESPN highlighted in a story. 

Per ESPN:

The Timberwolves had just lost to the Nuggets in the first round of the playoffs in April 2023, with Anthony Edwards’ potential game-tying 3 coming up empty as time expired in Game 5. Afterward, Edwards and a couple of teammates went to a cocktail lounge, Forget Me Not, in the Cherry Creek neighborhood, with their chartered flight back home not scheduled to leave until the next morning.

Of all of the gin joints in all of the towns in all of the world, Denver point guard Jamal Murray — fresh off a 35-point showing in the closeout game — just so happened to walk into the same bar as the Timberwolves.

And Edwards, a budding star yet to have the breakout postseason that has turned him into a bona fide superstar this spring, had a message to deliver to Murray.

“He was talking s—,” Edwards told ESPN as he walked down the ramp toward the team bus after his club’s 98-90 victory on Sunday. “He was telling Mike [Conley], ‘I’m sick of you, you can’t guard me,’ and all that.

“I told him, ‘We’ll be back. You’ll see us again when we’re fully loaded.’”

A Historic Night For The Timberwolves & Nuggets

Anthony Edwards’ words turned out to be prophetic.

He and his Timberwolves erased a 20-point third-quarter deficit, completing one of the largest comebacks in Game 7 history in the past 25 NBA postseasons.

The Nuggets also made history, becoming the first team in NBA history to lead by 15 points or more at halftime and lose a Game 7 playoff game. They also became the fifth consecutive defending NBA champions not even to sniff the conference finals.

Speaking on his squad’s herculean effort, Ant-Man told reporters, “It shows who we are. Once we really lock in on the defensive end, man, we’re a hell of a team to beat.”

Timberwolves big man Karl-Anthony Towns, who is usually the butt of the jokes when they can’t clown Rudy Gobert, came up big for his team.

The team’s No. 1 pick in the 2015 NBA Draft kept his team in the game by scoring 23 points, 12 rebounds, 2 steals, and a blocked shot.

Kat was also effective when defending three-time league MVP Nikola Jokic.

His head coach, Chris Finch, had glowing words about Towns. “I think you see how at peace and happy he is right now,” Finch said. “He had to trust that he was never going to be marginalized. All young players always think they can do it all by themselves, but in this league, nobody can.”

“I couldn’t be more happy and proud for him. Just because I think he’s faced a lot of unfair criticism when it comes to the postseason at times.”

Of course, the reactions to the Nuggets choking were on point. You can see those in the gallery below.

1. Brilliant tweet

2. Gotta love the Joker’s even in defeat

3. What is wrong with y’all? LOL

LeBron James Allegedly Won’t Ditch The Los Angeles Lakers To Play With Bronny

Bronny James’ name has yet to be called during the 2024 NBA Draft, but the chatter around LeBron James’ son, where he will land, and if the Lakers superstar will join the team that takes a chance on his seed is deafening.

Word around the NBA streets was that LeBron James was very gung-ho about playing alongside his son in the league, giving many teams the impression that if they draft Bronny, they could land LBJ in free agency.

According to reports, teams shouldn’t bet on that because Bron Bron has no desire to ditch the Los Angeles Lakers to hoop with his son.

The Athletic’s Shams Charania reports that James is telling teams not named the Lakers who believe their chances to sign him in free agency will increase if they draft Bronny “No, as of right now,” regarding leaving Los Angeles.

Yahoo! Sports reports the “as of right now” in his statement leaves enough wiggle room for teams to continue to continue working on a situation that would pique his interest.

Interest in Bronny James increased following his strong showing at the NBA Draft, and some people believe he could be drafted in the second round.

LeBron James Did Express In The Past He Wanted To Play With Bronny In His Final Season

Regardless of the chatter around Bronny James, the Los Angeles Lakers are still the front runners to resign James, who has a $51.4 million player option for the 2024-25 season, if they land a head coach LeBron James approves of and a third piece to compliment him and Anthony Davis.

LBJ’s new alleged stance on playing alongside his son starkly differs from his past comments.

He made his desire to play his final season as a teammate with Bronny, even saying he would sign with the team that drafts his son.

That changed after the Lakers were bounced out of the playoffs by the Denver Nuggets, with James telling people hooping with Bronny was no longer a priority for him.

As for Bronny James, a conversation is happening now that he doesn’t deserve the attention he is receiving. Some people believe the spotlight is on him because he is the son of arguably the greatest professional hooper not named Michael Jordan.

ESPN NBA analyst Kendrick Perkins has been very loud on the matter.

Now, Bronny knows that carrying the James torch is the main topic of discussion, but the young hooper has made it clear he doesn’t want anything handed to him because he is the son of LeBron James and wants people to judge him on his skills and what he does on the court.

“Everything that follows my dad, people just try to link me with that and all the greatness he’s achieved and I haven’t done anything yet,” Bronny told reporters. “So there needs to be that divide between Bronny and LeBron. I just want to let people know that my name is Bronny James and not being identified as LeBron James’ son.”

We hear you Bronny.

You can see more reactions in the gallery below.

1. Draymond Green is a believer in Bronny James

Bad Bunny’s Rimas Sports Signs the Atlanta Braves’ Ronald Acuña Jr.

Rimas Sports — an agency partnership between Bad Bunny and executives Noah Assad and Jonathan Miranda — has signed The Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. to an exclusive representation agreement, the company tells Billboard.

“We are thrilled to welcome the Acuña family to Rimas Sports,” Miranda, CEO of Rimas Sports, said in a statement. “Ronald is a once-in-a-generation player, and we are confident that together we will take his extraordinary career to new heights. Acuña is aligned with Rimas Sports’ foundational principle of empowering the next generation of Latin American players by helping them build lasting legacies for themselves, their families, and their communities.”

The renowned Venezuelan athlete kicked off his career with The Atlanta Braves organization in 2014 and made his MLB debut in 2018 when he nabbed the Rookie of the Year title.

Trending on Billboard

In 2023, the 26-year-old four-time All-Star was named the 2023 National League Most Valuable Player in his sixth major-league season, marking the eighth time a Braves player has nabbed the title after Freddie Freeman (2020), Chipper Jones (1999), Terry Pendleton (1991), Dale Murphy (1982, 1983), Hank Aaron (1957), Robert Elliott (1947) and Johnny Evers (1914). A press statement at the time noted that Acuña “was a unanimous selection, receiving 30 of 30 first-place votes from the Baseball Writers’ Association of America. He finished with 420 points, 150 more than runner-up Mookie Betts.”

To celebrate his new MVP title, award-winning Mexican-American producer Samuel Ash dropped “La Bestia,” a catchy dembow song performed by Dominican artist Niko Eme.

“We wanted something that felt global and to do something we could put a chant to,” Ash previously told Billboard. “I know dembow is a Dominican genre but I felt that it could still feel global and resonate with him as a Venezuelan.”

Alongside of Caitlin Clark, fans were excited to see WNBA rookie Angel Reese take to the court this week. The LSU forward made her debut on Wednesday night (May 15) as her Chicago Sky headed south to take on the Dallas Wings — and Latto made sure she was in the building to witness it.

The broadcast’s sideline reporter caught up with the “Big Energy” rapper to learn why she pulled up to the game, and Latto kept her answer short and sweet with just two words: “Angel Reese.”

Unfortunately, it wasn’t a full night of celebrating as the Bayou Barbie and the Chicago Sky fell short in her debut. The Dallas Wings held on for a 87-79 victory behind Arike Ogunbowale’s game-high 25 points.

Reese was solid in her first game as she poured in 12 points to go along with eight rebounds in 26 minutes on the floor. Reese and the Sky won’t have to wait long to exact revenge, as they’re slated for a rematch on Saturday night (May 18).

For even more content, you can also bundle Hulu + Live TV with Disney+ and ESPN+ to watch additional exclusive and original sporting events and programs that won’t air on CBS.

Can You Get CBS With Amazon Prime?

You can watch CBS shows and content when you add Paramount+ as a premium channel to your Prime subscription. Paramount + is the official distributor and streaming platform for CBS, which means you’ll get access to exclusive and original content all within the Prime Video library. Just go to the Prime Channel storefront and you can get a seven-day free trial of Paramount+. Once your free trial is over, you’ll be charged $5.99 a month on top of your Prime membership subscription.

Don’t have a Prime membership? Amazon is offering a 30-day free trial for new users who sign up — and you can stack on the Paramount+ free trial giving you access to all the benefits of a Prime membership as well as the ability to watch everything within the Paramount+ library, for free.

Is CBS On Hulu?

You won’t be able to livestream CBS programs with just a Hulu membership, but you can get live content when you subscribe to Hulu + Live TV. This includes everything from college sports, NFL and hit reality shows like The Amazing Race and Big Brother. Having just a Hulu membership will let you watch CBS shows and content the next day, but typically doesn’t include major sporting events.
