Page Six reported just after 12noon ET today that they’d learned exclusively that Taylor Swift, who was just in LA last night for the Toy Story 5 premiere, will be at game four of the NBA Finals tonight with the Knicks up two games to one in the series against the San Antonio Spurs.

According to Page Six’s sources, she’ll be going with friends and not Travis Kelce? How many friends? Courtside Knicks tickets for the finals are mega-premium. It’s not that she couldn’t afford to buy up every courtside seat but, like, there are other celebrities and billionaires who want them too, and I wonder if there’s a limit to how many the special people can ask for/purchase. Maybe that doesn’t apply to Taylor Swift since she’s allegedly getting married there which, again, so many people find so hard to believe.

While we’re here though, let’s talk about the most beloved Knicks fan, at least for Jalen Brunson. Everyone in NYC, and probably everyone who watches ball, knows that Jalen loves Mariska and Mariska loves Jalen. And if you know ball, Jalen is an intense person, not exactly warm and fuzzy all the time – except when Mariska is in front of hm.

Ben Stiller loves it… but is also jealous.

Mariska was there on Monday night when that f-cking asshole insisted on attending and jinxed the home team. She was with her son and also Chris Meloni. Their show is a New York institution, and she is a New York institution. And, by the way, Mariska isn’t just a Knicks fave, Taylor Swift is also obsessed with her. One of her cats is called Olivia Benson. So if Taylor really is going tonight, it wouldn’t be a stretch to see her seated with one of her idols.
