Christian Petersen/Getty Images After they were spotted together at Game 5 of the NBA Finals over the weekend, rumors began to circulate that Adele is dating Rich Paul, LeBron James' agent. Now a source confirms to People magazine that the two are indeed a couple. The source says Adele, 33, has been dating Paul, 40 for "a few months." ESPN's Brian Windhorst also stated that the game marked the first public outing for Paul and "his girlfriend." The source adds that Paul was previously in a relationship with Jennifer Meyer, the ex-wife of actor Tobey Maguire. In addition to LeBron, Paul represents Ben Simmons, Anthony Davis, Lonzo Ball and more through his agency, Klutch Sports Group.

Since then, she's also been linked to British rapper Skepta, but that romance has never been confirmed. Copyright © 2021, ABC Audio. All rights reserved.

Phillip Faraone/FilmMagic Britney Spears is taking it "one day at a time." On Tuesday, the 38-year-old pop star, who's fighting to end her 13 year conservatorship, gave fans an update on how she's feeling. Alongside a photo of alphabet dice that spelled out the message "one day at a time," Britney wrote, "So I said 'life goes on' in one of my recent posts but it’s always easier said than done !!!!!" She continued, "In that moment that’s what felt was the easiest to say but I think we all know that I will never be able to let go and fully move on until I’ve said all I needed to say … and I’m not even close !!!!" "I was told to stay quiet about things for so long and I finally feel like I’m just getting here," Britney concluded, adding three white dove emojis.

Beth Garrabrant Taylor Swift’s Fearless (Taylor’s Version), the re-recorded version of her 2008 album, will not be up for contention at the next Grammy and CMA Awards -- by Taylor’s choice, according to Billboard. “After careful consideration, Taylor Swift will not be submitting Fearless (Taylor’s Version) in any category at this year’s upcoming Grammy and CMA Awards,” a Republic Records representative tells Billboard. It would seem Taylor’s not looking to double-dip, as the original Fearless album remains one of her most highly decorated. “Fearless has already won four Grammys including album of the year, as well as the CMA Award for album of the year in 2009/2010 and remains the most awarded country album of all time,” the label rep continued. There is still a shot for Taylor this awards season, though. The rep adds that her ninth studio album Evermore, which was released in December 2020, will be submitted to the Grammys for consideration in all eligible categories. Copyright © ..

Gregg DeGuire/FilmMagic A few years ago, Zedd took Architectural Digest on a tour of his Beverly Hills mansion, complete with a Skittles machine and a COSTCO room. Now, he’s looking to sell the dream property. According to the real estate site Dirt, the DJ/producer has put his sprawling modern home on the market for $26.5 million. He paid $16 million when he bought the home five years ago. Since buying the place, Zedd has made all kinds of upgrades, including a custom-designed soundproof movie theater and nearly-finished professional recording studio. The property includes a long driveway that crosses a moat before reaching the five-bedroom, nine-bathroom main house. There’s also an indoor/outdoor gym, a billiards room that houses the aforementioned Skittles vending machine, an infinity-edge pool and spa and more. Copyright © 2021, ABC Audio.

Theo Wargo/Getty Images for The Recording Academy Two Bruno Mars concerts at MGM Park Theater in Las Vegas -- part of Bruno's ongoing residency in Sin City -- have been called off for this Friday and Saturday due to "unforeseen circumstances," reports the Las Vegas Review-Journal. No reason was given for the scrapped shows; when the Review-Journal asked if the reason was COVID-related, a hotel spokesperson declined to give the paper any additional information. Those dates have been rescheduled to August 27-28. Previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new dates, or fans can receive refunds through August 13.

Rich Fury/Getty Images Lil Nas X is giving everyone fair warning this time: his next video is not for kids. The singer, who’s gearing up to release his new single, “Industry Baby,” warned parents on Twitter Tuesday: “Saying this in advance so y’all won’t blame me. THE INDUSTRY BABY VIDEO IS NOT FOR YOUR KIDS!” Lil Nas’ debut song, “Old Town Road,” was a hit with kids and adults alike, so some parents were shocked when the singer later released his decidedly more adult video for the sexually charged song “MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name).” He previously hit back at critics on Twitter, writing, “i made the decision to create the music video. i am an adult. i am not gonna spend my entire career trying to cater to your children. that is your job." “Industry Baby” is set to drop Friday. Lil Nas teased the Kanye West-produced track Monday with a video spoofing the Nike lawsuit over his Satan Shoes. Copyright © 2021, ABC Audio. All rights reserved.
