Dina's Dirt for August 14, 2025
After nearly dying surfing, Jason Momoa says this is the change he made in life.
Taylor Swift appeared on the "New Heights" podcast yesterday, which is hosted by her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce, to talk about her new album "The Life of a Showgirl," which comes out on October 3rd. Taylor also touched on her love story with Travis, talking about how he tried to meet her organically at one of her concerts - he didn't try to reach out to her management. Taylor joked, "He thought because he knows the elevator lady that he could talk to her about just getting down to my dressing room. That's how it works in 1973." But she did appreciate that "he's truly trying to get to know me in a way that's very natural, very pure, very normal.'
Beyoncé surprised her "Cowboy Carter Tour" dancers with Louis Vuitton Horizon suitcases, each engraved with their initials and accompanied by a handwritten thank-you note praising their "hard work and dedication." Choreographer Justin "Jus't" Chase shared videos of the unboxing, which led to fans getting excited for another tour, telling them "Bey said pack your bags for the Act III tour."
Jason Momoa recently shared a wild near-death story about surfing Hawaii that changed him forever. He revealed on the "SmartLess" podcast they were about "13 miles down the coast…then my leash snapped," and he took a few whacks on the head. After exhaustion set in, he said, "I couldn't move anymore, and my arms and my legs gave up…my body stopped." Just when he thought it was over, as he was sinking, his friend – pro surfer Laird Hamilton rescued him, helping him push through the last seven miles. That became a life-changing moment for him. He said, "I used to smoke two, three packs a day. I couldn't stop for my kids, couldn't stop for my ex. I couldn't stop smoking. The moment I came out, I never smoked again."
David and Victoria Beckham's son Brooklyn didn't invite any of his family to his secret vow renewal. Brooklyn and wife Nicola Peltz, who first got married in 2022, said "I do" for a second time on August 2nd in front of her family, who had key roles in the day, with the Beckhams nowhere in sight. Vic and David posted pics with the rest of the family on a boat.
Looked like they were doing just fine.
