Taylor Swift's handling all family business on her new album ... 'cause it appears she took the opportunity to take shots at Travis Kelce's ex, Kayla Nicole.

"The Life of a Showgirl" dropped late last night, and Swifites have combed through the album searching for every veiled reference ... and they're convinced the star took some shots at Nicole's effort during her relationship with Kelce on the track "Opalite"

Swift sings, "“You couldn’t understand it, why you felt alone / You were in it for real, she was in her phone / And you were just a pose.”

12:13 PM PT -- The Fort Worth Police Dept. tells TMZ Sports ... the accident occurred at around 11:48 AM CT on Friday and involved a total of four vehicles.

"Upon arrival, officers located three of the vehicles that were involved; the other had left the scene prior to officers' arrival," cops said in a statement to us Friday. "Medical personnel made the scene and transported an occupant to a nearby hospital with unknown injuries."

"This accident is being investigated."

11:50 AM PT -- Robert Griffin III's wife, Grete, just provided an update ... writing on her IG Story, "I hit my head so will get a CT scan and Robert's back is also getting checked out."

Fortunately, she said the "kiddos are all well and healthy."

Robert Griffin III and his family were involved in a car crash on Friday ... but thankfully, the ex-NFL star says he, his wife and their kids are OK.

Griffin III shared on his X page minutes ago that the wreck occurred while he was out in Fort Worth, Texas getting ready to work this weekend's TCU vs. Colorado game for Fox.

Griffin III and his family appeared to be in a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter when the accident happened on a local highway.

Taylor Swift singing about Travis Kelce's "wand" is nothing magical to Dave Portnoy ... 'cause the Barstool Sports founder and diehard Swiftie says he just can't stomach a song dedicated to the Kansas City Chiefs superstar's member.

Portnoy dropped his review of Swift's new album "The Life of a Showgirl" Friday ... saying "Honey," "Eldest Daughter," "Life of a Showgirl," "The Fate of Ophelia" and "Opalite" were his favorite tunes.

Dave said his list comes with an asterisk. He enjoyed the song "Wood" on the first few spins ... but once he learned Swift wasn't actually crooning about trees, he had a hard time swallowing the tune.

Melissa Rycroft allegedly claimed to be the victim of a hit-and-run before cops arrested her for driving while intoxicated ... but, they say a witness totally contradicted the claim.

We've obtained a search warrant from law enforcement in Tarrant County, Texas ... which states officers responded to a call just after noon on September 23 -- where they say they found Melissa standing with an off-duty firefighter and swaying.

The officer claims Melissa had "bloodshot eyes, slurred speech" and alleges she "had a slight odor of a metabolized alcoholic beverage" on her breath.

Taylor Swift fans are in full-on detective mode over "The Life of a Showgirl," investigating each lyric and hunting down every Easter egg ... but the singer has dropped herself -- one song is raw, real, and all about her longing to be a mother.

The singer spilled on UK’s Heart FM with Jamie Theakston and Emma Bunton Friday that her dreamy new jam "Wi$h Li$t" isn’t just about her ... it’s a globe-spanning wish list, with her own dreams sneakily woven right in.

Now, peep the lyrics... "I just want you" -- yep, that’s about Travis -- and "have a couple kids"... clearly Taylor’s painting her dream family.

New York Yankees pitcher Cam Schlittler was a menace to everyone in Boston red on Thursday night ... not only did he dominate the Sox in a Wild Card elimination game, he later trolled one of the team's most stunning fans.

The Yanks rookie hit the comment section of Red Sox fan Lucy Burdge's viral X post after mowing down the Red Sox in the do-or-die tilt at Yankee Stadium ... and he dropped a trolling line.

While Burdge wrote "Sox in 3" ahead of first pitch of the big game ... Schlittler responded, "Not this year."

Glen Powell is teaming up with Peyton and Eli Manning on their "Monday Night Football" simulcast for the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Jacksonville Jaguars next week ... meaning the OG and new Chad Powers are coming face to face!!

TMZ Sports has learned the actor will be joining the Mannings as they watch Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce and the rest of the Chiefs take on Travis Hunter and the Jags in their Week 5 matchup.

Of course, Powell's new series "Chad Powers" dropped on Hulu earlier this week -- which was inspired by a character Eli debuted during an episode of his "Eli's Places" series.

There's gonna be a Taylor Swift listening party at the Chiefs' facility on Friday ... 'cause Patrick Mahomes says he will be blasting her new album all day!!

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback revealed his plans with Carrington Harrison on "The Drive" radio show ... just hours before Swift's 12th studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl," dropped on Friday.

"I'm super excited," Mahomes said. "I haven't been able to hear the album yet, but I'm super excited to be able to do that. It will be blaring all through the Chiefs' facility tomorrow."

Former WWE champ Matt Riddle took things to another level when he lashed out against TMZ's Inside The Ring podcast hosts, picking Branson up by his collar, and slamming him on a table ... but no 911 call needed for this 'work' attack!

The crazy scene unfolded after Riddle was asked about Jake Paul, and clearly didn't take kindly to Branson suggesting the wrestler was out for a "payday," with the ex-WWE Superstar calling the pod "s****y" before getting physical with the host.

Riddle threw a helpless Branson to the ground ... as Roger backed away from the set, carefully watching.

The wrestler then grabbed the TMZ title belt and left the studio in a hurry ... before thanking Harvey and Charles for the invite.

Riddle, former MLW World Champ, is in Los Angeles for his big one-on-one match against Alexander Hammerstone at MLW's Slaughterhouse show Saturday night.

Matt was also WWE's US champ, as well as tag team champ alongside Randy Orton back in his WWE days.

Branson addressed the "incident" and his "injuries," writing on X ... "I'm okay, don't worry, just needed a little ice pack on my face!"

Taylor Swift has been completely swept off her feet by Travis Kelce, and she's making that well-known in one of her hit songs on her new album, "The Life of a Showgirl."

The pop icon just released the sexy tune, "Wood," and the lyrics more than suggest she's madly in love with Travis, who broke her losing streak with men.

Just read the lyrics ... “Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me / And opened my eyes / Redwood tree / It ain’t hard to see / His love was the key / That opened my thighs.”

While Travis Kelce's current flame was all about "The Life Of A Show Girl" on Thursday night ... his former one was far more into the Suite Life.

Kayla Nicole was seen in a SoFi Stadium luxury box during the 49ers' "Thursday Night Football" matchup with the Rams ... partying her tail off with a bunch of San Francisco players' wives and girlfriends.

The Chiefs star's ex rubbed elbows with Claire Kittle, Kristin Juszczyk and others throughout the big football game -- even at one point filming a social media video to Metro Boomin's "Take Me Thru Dere."

Taylor Swift traded in her cardigan for a corset and just dropped her 12th studio album "The Life of a Showgirl" ... and the midnight drop came complete with lyrics that fans are calling some of her most cutthroat and authentically Taylor yet!!!

In classic Swift fashion, the dazzling album -- which features 12 tracks -- marks a new era for Taylor ... giving her fans a glittery masterpiece full of perfectly curated lyrics and show-stopping melodies.

The track titles -- being revealed previously on her website -- are "The Fate of Ophelia," "Elizabeth Taylor," "Opalite," "Father Figure," "Eldest Daughter," "Ruin the Friendship," "Actually Romantic," "Wi$h Li$T," "Wood," "CANCELLED!," "Honey," and "The Life of a Showgirl" featuring Sabrina Carpenter.

On October 3, 1995, the jury in O.J. Simpson's murder trial walked into the courtroom in Downtown Los Angeles and announced they'd found the former football standout not guilty.

Thirty years later, the evidence in the case, the spectacle of it and the controversial verdict are still ingrained in the public consciousness ... and, we've got all the photos of the trial for you to review each and every moment.

O.J. and Nicole Brown Simpson were married from 1985 to 1992 ... two years later, Nicole and the man she was dating, Ron Goldman, were brutally murdered outside her condo in Brentwood in L.A., by a suspect with a knife.

Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show could very well feature something no other NFL act ever has -- a WWE Superstar as a backup dancer!!!

Damian Priest tells TMZ Sports ... he's super down to hit the SB LX stage in February to give his good pal Benito a lift if he wants one.

"If you need me to learn some dance moves and break it down," the wrestler said, "I can figure it out!"

Brooks Nader's sending Jimmy Kimmel good vibes from across the Atlantic ... showing support in new swag from his talk show -- though we think the hat may be the last thing people on the street noticed!

The model stepped out in Paris with her sisters on Thursday ... grabbing dinner in a see-through catsuit and leather jacket combination.

Check out the pics ... it's fortunate Brooks is in Paris because the French word "risqué" is quite apt when it comes to this look!

6:10 PM PT -- Melissa's lawyer Bret Martin tells TMZ ... "I want to remind the public of the fundamental principle of our justice system…every individual is presumed innocent until proven guilty. We, as a society, have gotten completely away from this fundamental concept. My Client was arrested  on the allegation of Driving While Intoxicated. An arrest is no indication of guilt."

He continues ... "It is imperative that we closely examine the circumstances of this case-including the conduct of law enforcement, the toxicology results, and the facts surrounding her arrest-before any conclusions are drawn. We respectfully request that the media and the public allow the legal process to unfold, and withhold any judgment whatsoever until all of the evidence has been properly analyzed and presented in a court of law."

Melissa Rycroft was arrested for driving while intoxicated this month ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the former 'Bachelor' star was busted for DWI in the Dallas/Fort Worth area on September 23. We're told she was taken into custody and booked into the local jail, where she sat for 8 hours before being released. She posted a $1,000 bond with a promise to appear in court.

The exact details of her arrest remain unclear at this point, but what is clear .. she's now facing a court date in connection with the charge.
