Taylor Swift celebrates regaining masters with bestie Selena Gomez during NYC dinner outing

Girls’ night out.
Taylor Swift celebrated regaining the masters to her first six albums by enjoying a lavish dinner outing in NYC with her bestie Selena Gomez.
The “Bad Blood” singer and the “Only Murders in the Building” actress were photographed Saturday night together inside Monkey Bar, a restaurant that was established in 1936 and serves shellfish, steaks, pastas and more.
In the photo shared on X, Swift, 35, was seated across from Gomez, 32, and the women appeared to be engaged in a deep conversation, with the “Cruel Summer” songstress sporting a look of shock on her face while her BFF stared at her.
Monkey Bar posted on its website that it would be closing the bar at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday for a “private event,” however, it’s unclear if that was due to the presence of the two pop stars.
Page Six has reached out to the Monkey Bar for comment but did not immediately hear back.
The celebratory outing came one day after Swift announced on her website that she bought back the masters to her first six albums.
“I’m trying to gather my thoughts into something coherent, but right now my mind is just a slideshow,” she began in her handwritten letter.
“A flashback sequence of all the time I daydreamed about, wished for, and pined away for a chance to get to tell this news. All the times I was thiiiiiiiiiiis close, reaching out for it, only for it to fall through,” the 14-time Grammy winner added.
“I almost stopped thinking it could ever happen, after 20 years of having the carrot dangled and then yanked away. But that’s all in the past now. I’ve been bursting into tears of joy at random intervals ever since I found that this is really happening. I really get to say those words.
“All of the music I’ve ever made … now belongs… to me.”
Scooter Braun bought the rights to Swift’s first six albums — “Taylor Swift,” “Fearless,” “Speak Now,” “Red,” “1989” and “Reputation” — in 2019 when his company Ithica Holdings acquired her former label, Big Machine Records.
The retired music manager then sold her masters to Shamrock Capital.
At the time, the billionaire pop star claimed “bully” Braun, 43, “stripped me of my life’s work, that I wasn’t given an opportunity to buy.”
Sources told Billboard Friday that Swift bought her masters from Shamrock Capital for around $360 million.
Gomez was one of many stars to celebrate her pal’s major move, writing that she was “so proud” on her Instagram Stories.
The “Shake It Off” singer was also shown love from her beau, Travis Kelce, who “liked” Swift’s Instagram post about the big news.

Country star Ella Langley says ‘very scary’ Alabama church haunted house led to her getting ‘saved again’

Ella Langley is opening up about what it was like for her growing up in a small town as a Southern Baptist.
During an interview on the “This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von” podcast, the 26-year-old country music star spoke about her upbringing in a small town in Alabama, recalling getting scared in the church’s “judgment houses.”
“It’s, like, they do it around Halloween,” she said. “It’s like a haunted house for Christians, I guess. Very scary. I remember our youth group took us. You get in there, and it’s like this car crash scene, and it’s pretty much like convincing you… that you could die the second you walk out of here, so you better settle up. You better get saved.”
She explained that the haunted houses “affected me so bad” that when they asked her youth group if anyone wanted to talk, she raised her hand and “got saved again.”
The “Excuse the Mess” singer recalled her dad telling her, “Well, you are kind of a dumba–, cuz that’s the whole point of being saved.”
Langley explained that she was homeschooled for many years, and her life consisted of going to church, noting, “Pretty much all we did was go to church.”
She noted it was a “really, really small church. It started in a barn. The house that I also grew up in, my dad grew up in, and there was an old barn across the street, and it started in hay bales on that barn, and then they moved it to a church, and I mean every Sunday and Wednesday until I was 18 years old.”
She compared growing up in a small town to her experience with fame, explaining, “You’ve known all these people your whole life,” and growing up in that environment, “I would hear s— about me all the time,” adding, “you just get used to that.”
Langley began her career on social media, gaining a following by posting covers on TikTok and Instagram, leading her to release her EP “Excuse the Mess” in 2023.
The EP helped solidify her fan base and included many of her early hits, including “If You Have To” and “Country Boy’s Dream Girl.” She achieved mainstream success when she collaborated with Riley Green on her hit song “You Look Like You Love Me,” which went viral on TikTok, got millions of streams on Spotify and Apple Music, and expanded her audience.
Her debut studio album, “Hungover,” was released in August 2024, and in April 2025, Langley was presented with the ACM New Female Artist of the Year award by country icon Miranda Lambert, who has become a good friend to the budding star.
“I was singing constantly as a kid. Like I said, I’ve known my whole life what I wanted to do, so I was always doing it,” she told Grammy.com in August 2024, adding she became a stronger songwriter during COVID, saying, “all I did was write, write, write.”
The “Choosin’ Texas” singer told the outlet that storytelling is in her blood, noting, her “dad’s an incredible storyteller” and so was her grandpa. “Storytelling is what my family did,” she said.
When speaking with Theo Von on the podcast, she credited her grandparents on her father’s side for nurturing her love of music, saying her “grandpa could play anything by ear.”
“I was, like, the first girl in the family, and I started to match pitch with [my grandma] as a baby, and so she figured out I could sing, and singing was her thing, and my grandpa could, like I said, play any instrument by ear, and so at their house, that’s all we did,” she said
“I sang at church a lot. I learned how to read from singing hymnals,” she added. “I really, just the whole time, like, my whole family, we all just were like, ‘This is what she’s gonna do.’”

‘I Dream of Jeannie’ star Barbara Eden turns heads at 94 in new photo with husband

Barbara Eden turned heads after sharing a new photo that left fans doing a double take.
Eden, 94, stunned in a photo shared on the “I Dream of Jeannie” star’s Instagram page.
The actress and her husband, Jon Eicholtz, donned matching bunny ears as they celebrated the Easter holiday together.
“She looks amazing. I want to know her secret,” one of her followers commented.
“Still gorgeous and ageless!!!” another person wrote. “Ageless beauty for sure,” read a third comment.
Eden has enjoyed a decades-long career in Hollywood, though many best remember her from the beloved 1960s sitcom. “I Dream of Jeannie” tells the tale of astronaut Major Tony Nelson (Larry Hagman), who finds a magic bottle with a 2,000-year-old genie (Eden) inside.
The two fall in love and build a life together.
The series premiered on Sept. 18, 1965, catapulting Eden to superstardom. It aired for five seasons before ending in 1970.
These days, Eden enjoys a quieter life with her husband and their dog, Bentley.
“I didn’t realize how popular ‘Jeannie’ was until several years after, and it still amazes me,” Eden told People in 2025. “I can’t believe it. I have mail from Russia. Can you imagine? I have fan mail from Russia, China, Japan, Poland, Italy, Germany, South America and the U.K. If you had told me that when we were shooting, I wouldn’t have believed it.”
Eden told the outlet that fans often ask her to make Jeannie’s signature arm-folding motion to “cast a spell” for them — and sometimes, they do it back.
“It’s magic,” she said. “They always want magic. Magic is good.”
In recent years, Eden has uncorked the truth about why the 1960s sitcom was first shot in black and white before switching to color. “I was going to have a baby,” she explained in an interview with People. “And, so, they started fast. I think they thought I was going to die or something. They didn’t want to invest the money in color.”
It had long been assumed that showrunners worried about how the show’s special effects would look in color, prompting them to play it safe, People reported.
However, they were actually more concerned about hiding Eden’s growing baby bump.
“The same day that ‘I Dream of Jeannie’ sold, the doctor told me I was pregnant,” Eden previously told the outlet.
“I was thrilled. I was so happy, but I knew they’d have to replace me. Well, God love [‘I Dream of Jeannie’ creator] Sidney Sheldon. He got to work, and we did the first 13 shows with me pregnant.”
