Taylor Swift made another appearance at an NFL game in support of Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs as they take on the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Divisional round playoff game.
Ahead of the start of the game, Swift made her way to the suite at Highmark Stadium, where she was seen talking to Kelce’s brother, Jason Kelce. Cameras captured the moment Swift was in the suite and the NFL Today sportscasters named her the “Most Valuable Princess of Chiefs Kingdom.”
“Look who’s in the house, that’s Taylor Swift, the Mvp Most Valuable Princess of Chiefs Kingdom,” the CBS sportscaster said. “There’s always a little luck involved in football. Hopefully, she’s a good luck charm for [Travis] Kelce and the crew.”

When :a[Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes]{href='https://www.empireonline.com/movies/reviews/rise-planet-apes-review/' target='_blank' rel='noreferrer noopener'} set out to unfold the, well, rise of the planet of the apes back in 2011, it did so through the eyes of Caesar – an empathetic primate brought to vivid life by Andy Serkis’ astonishing performance. Through the course of that trilogy, audiences witnessed Caesar’s entire life span, his own evolution coinciding with the simian revolution spreading across the globe. So, with the arrival of :a[Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes]{href='https://www.empireonline.com/movies/news/kingdom-of-the-planet-of-the-apes-adventure-quest-movie-little-bit-of-star-wars-exclusive/' target='_blank' rel='noreferrer noopener'}, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Caesar’s son, Cornelius, would be at the centre of the action for the next saga.

After its strong opening weekend, Marvel Studios’ “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” is shaping up to be a historically frontloaded superhero film at the box office, plummeting 69% in its second weekend to $32 million.
Given its mixed reviews and audience reception, analysts and rival distributors were not expecting the third “Ant-Man” movie to make more than $40 million this weekend. But barring a much stronger-than-expected Sunday, this movie will have the largest second-weekend drop in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the largest drop for any superhero movie with a $100 million-plus opening since the 69.6% drop of “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” in 2016.
With a 10-day total of $164 million, “Quantumania” should have enough momentum to cross the $200 million mark at the domestic box office. But with such a steep drop it is now questionable whether the film will have enough fuel against stiff March blockbuster competition to even pass the...
