Michael Rubin on Taylor Swift's Wedding: I Wasn't Invited!

Michael Rubin, the founder of Fanatics, didn't make the guest list for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding. He revealed this himself in an interview with TMZ Sports, when asked about his famous Independence Day celebration.

Rubin's annual Fourth of July party in the Hamptons once again attracted a host of celebrities in 2026: Mike Tyson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Travis Scott, Tom Brady, Lil Wayne, Jake and Logan Paul, Alex Rodriguez, and others. The event is traditionally considered one of the brightest social highlights of the summer.

Earlier, rumors circulated that Rubin had moved his party up a few days so guests could attend both his event and the Swift-Kelce wedding at Madison Square Garden. However, it turned out the real reason was different: he thought the UFC 250 White House event would take place on Independence Day, as originally planned.

Despite not receiving an invitation to the 'royal wedding,' Rubin didn't seem to mind. The businessman said he was very happy for the newlyweds and wished them all the best. This is somewhat surprising, given that Rubin seems to be friends with everyone in Hollywood.

Perhaps Swift and Kelce assumed he'd have his hands full cleaning up after his own party, so they decided not to burden him. Or maybe the guest list was simply limited, and Rubin didn't make the cut.

In the same interview, Rubin also commented on the possibility of LeBron James joining the Philadelphia 76ers — a team he once co-owned. He called it 'a match made in heaven.'
