Rumors Swirl About Kelce & Swift + @MrBeast CANCELED Over Charity? | What Are We Doing Podcast #116
Hey listeners! In today's episode we're breaking down two of the biggest stories taking over the internet right now. From celebrity relationship speculation to a contentious debate around charity work, this week has been a wild ride online. Let's get right into it!
First up is the rumored romance between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. Rumblings started when Swift was spotted at Chiefs games wearing Kelce's jersey and bonding with his mom. But things really heated up when Kelce suddenly appeared in Argentina as Swift kicked off her Eras tour there.
Sources confirm Kelce arrived on November 10th, coinciding with Swift's Buenos Aires show which ended up postponed due to weather. Kelce's presence makes it clear he's there to support his potential new girlfriend during her tour.
As a longtime Swiftie, this pairing blows my mind! Kelce seems like a party boy while Swift's past relationships have been more lowkey. Is she trying to reinvent her image with this football hunk? Or could this be a strategic PR move?
Honestly though, I think this is the real deal. Swift just dropped her new Midnights album so she doesn't need extra hype. The way they've been spotted together seems intimate. After writing extensively about heartbreak, I believe Swift wants something new and Kelce could be the perfect partner.
Of course it's still early for this power couple. But if I'm right, expect more public outings and social media posts soon. I'll definitely be watching this situation unfold!
Switching gears, MrBeast is facing backlash after launching a charity initiative to build 100 wells supplying clean water in African countries. Though it raised over $300k, some call it insensitive colonialism.
The critique is that MrBeast's splashy stunt failed to work with local organizations already addressing the water crisis. Activists say it fuels stereotypes of Africa being "saved" by Westerners.
MrBeast brushed off the criticism, saying he doesn't care if it gets him "cancelled." His fans largely defend him for making a tangible impact.
In my opinion, there are valid points on both sides. MrBeast's project was a bit self-congratulatory but also benefits disadvantaged communities. The ideal solution would've been collaborating with established local groups.
But it's unrealistic to expect perfect wokeness from every creator. While thoughtful criticism is fair, the intense pile-on seems excessive. There's room for growth, not just condemnation. I hope MrBeast engages with the feedback to improve next time.
Finally, the beloved giant pandas of the National Zoo have returned home to China after decades charming visitors. Mei Xiang, Tian Tian and their cub Xiao Qi Ji were fan favorites, especially during the pandemic when we needed their wholesome content.
