Travis and Jason Kelce have paid tribute to the victims of the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory parade shooting.

The Chiefs tight end and his brother Jason, who plays for NFL side the Philadelphia Eagles, have issued a joint statement about the “deeply tragic” mass shooting that occurred at Union Station, Kansas City, Missouri, on February 14 while the Chiefs were celebrating their Super Bowl victory over the San Francisco 49ers.

Ahead of a new episode of their New Heights podcast, which drops today, the pair shared a video on their pod’s Instagram page reflecting on the incident, which left one person dead and 22 injured.

Travis said: “We have a pre-recorded episode for you guys coming up on Wednesday but after the tragic events at the Super Bowl parade in Kansas City, it didn’t feel right without you hearing from us first.”

Jason added: “We just wanted to say our hearts go out to all of the victims, their families, Chiefs Kingdom and really all of Kansas City that was there on a day to try to celebrate the community.

“It is unfortunate and deeply tragic the events that occurred.

We also want to thank the local law enforcement that sprang into action and first responders on scene and anybody that has been willing to help those affected by this tragedy.”

The brothers also shared a link to the Chiefs’ emergency response fund if people wish to donate to the victims and their families.

Travis said: “Your donation goes toward supporting victims and their families, violence prevention and mental health services.”

It comes after Travis donated US$100,000 ($162,087) to two children who were shot at the victory parade, matching a US$100,000 donation from his girlfriend, pop superstar Taylor Swift, to another GoFundMe page set up in the wake of the shooting.

The Chiefs tight end handed over two separate US$50,000 ($81,043) donations to the Reyes family to help their daughters, aged 8 and 10, who were injured at the event.

Travis made the donations on a GoFundMe page set up to help the youngsters, who suffered leg injuries in the tragedy, via his Eighty-Seven and Running Foundation, with the Hollywood Reporter confirming their authenticity.

The description on the GoFundMe page read: “The girls were celebrating with many members of their family when they were senselessly injured.

“We ask that you continue to keep the family in your prayers as the girls work to recover.

“This fund will help provide vital financial support for their physical and mental recovery, any leftover funds will be saved for their college funds. All funds are being deposited into a bank account established just for the girls. Any amount is appreciated.”

Swift gave two US$50,000 donations eight minutes apart to a fundraiser to benefit the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan, who lost her life at the parade.

She wrote: “Sending my deepest sympathies and condolences in the wake of your devastating loss”.

Tom cruise finally speak addressing public criticism on why he missed out on his daughter graduation for Swift concert,Suri is not my…. See more

Tom Cruise has recently made headlines for a major decision regarding his relationship with his daughter, Suri Cruise. The 18-year-old, who graduated from LaGuardia High School on June 21, did so without her father in attendance. Instead, Cruise chose to attend Taylor Swift’s Eras concert in London, raising questions about his priorities and his bond with his daughter.

Suri Cruise, who is said to have changed her last name to Noelle, a nod to her mother Katie Holmes, celebrated this significant milestone with her mother present. Katie Holmes was there to support and celebrate her daughter, but the absence of Tom Cruise did not go unnoticed. According to In Touch Weekly, this snub has led to further speculation about Cruise’s relationship with Suri.

An insider revealed that Cruise’s decision to skip Suri’s graduation in favor of attending Taylor Swift’s concert is indicative of his strained relationship with his daughter. “He was trading friendship bracelets with superfans and dancing to ‘Shake It Off’ in a crowd filled with young ladies who were around his daughter’s age,” the source said. This behavior, contrasted with his absence from Suri’s important day, has led some to believe that Cruise is living a “double life.”

The insider further elaborated that Cruise has not seen Suri for the past 11 years, stating, “the truth is for the last 11 years, Tom has chosen not to see Suri.” This estrangement appears to be a deliberate decision on Cruise’s part. Despite his absence from Suri’s life, Cruise maintains a close relationship with his other children, Bella and Connor, whom he adopted during his marriage to Nicole Kidman.

Both Bella and Connor are followers of Scientology, which has been a significant aspect of Cruise’s life. An expert on Tom Cruise’s faith, Tony Ortega, explained that Cruise’s primary loyalty is to Scientology and its leader, David Miscavige. Ortega noted, “He has proven over and over again that his No. 1 loyalty is to [his religion] and David Miscavige.”

The influence of Scientology on Cruise’s relationships has been a point of discussion for years. Ortega suggested that Suri’s exclusion from Cruise’s life might be beneficial for her. “It became more and more obvious Tom had completely cut Suri out of his life. And frankly, Suri may be better off for it,” he added.

Cruise’s prioritization of his faith and its community over his daughter has led to a complete estrangement. The choice to attend a concert over his daughter’s graduation is a public display of this ongoing separation. For Suri, who has grown up largely under the care of her mother, this might mean a life free from the complexities of her father’s religious affiliations.

In a twist that has caught everyone off guard, Brad Pitt, the Hollywood heartthrob, apparently made a remarkable move in honor of his ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston. This unexpected gesture left people staggered and sparked a flurry of speculation among fans and the media alike. According to reports of MIRROR, Pitt had purchased the former marital home the couple shared during their marriage, valued at a staggering $79 million, with the intention of gifting it to Aniston.

 

 

The luxurious Beverly Hills property, where Pitt and Aniston resided from 2000 to 2005, had been on the market following their divorce. Sources reveal that Aniston had found it challenging to part ways with the house, describing it as one of her biggest regrets not buying her ex-husband Pitt out at the time of their separation.

 

 

This four-bedroom property, adorned with marble kitchen floors, a swimming pool, a pub room with elegant wooden flooring, and a tennis court, served as a tangible representation of the dreams the once dearly in love with each other couple shared during their years together. Reportedly, Pitt and Aniston had initially acquired the residence and embarked on a three-year renovation journey before ultimately listing and selling the estate post-announcement of their split. The decision to part with the beloved home was reportedly a source of deep emotional turmoil for Aniston.

 

 

“When Brad and Jen split, she said losing their dream home worsened the heartache of their divorce, and it was one of her biggest regrets not buying Brad out,” a source close to the situation disclosed. Pitt, known for his grand gestures, allegedly purchased the property with the specific aim of surprising Aniston on her birthday. Acknowledging the FRIENDS star’s sentimental connection to the house, he reportedly intended to make a gesture that went above and beyond, aiming to exceed even her most extravagant dreams.

 

 

Brad wants to make a gesture to Jen that would go beyond her wildest dreams, so when their old home came up for sale, he knew that would be the purchase to make all her dreams come true,” the insider had revealed. The Break Up actor has, over the years, expressed a sentimental longing for their former home. Even after the divorce, Pitt reportedly missed the house and struggled to leave it behind.

 

 

Sources suggest that Aniston herself, during reunions with Pitt, often referred to the Beverly Hills estate, highlighting how her current Bel Air mansion failed to match up to the memories of their shared home. This unexpected birthday gift from Brad Pitt ignited speculation about the nature of their current relationship. As fans are eager to know their relationship status, one thing is for certain—Brad Pitt has set the bar high when it comes to amicable post-divorce relationships in showbiz. Kevin Costner, are you listening?

Teary-eyed Jennifer confessed: “What he said and what he saw in me, and what he made me believe about myself, only comes from love. Because nobody else could have made me see that about myself. It’s very moving.” She added: “Because I didn’t think much about myself and so the world didn’t think much of me. That lined up.”

 

 

During the documentary Jennifer spoke about how her husband was the muse for her independently produced album. While creating the album she even had her musical crew read handwritten love letters from Ben over the years that inspired the project.While Jennifer admitted Ben was “uncomfortable” being the centre of the work, he still happily supported her throughout her artistic endeavour and rooted her on every step of the way.
