Ever wonder who the region\u2019s most-searched-for locally born celebrities<\/a> are? <\/p>\n

Kobe Bryant? Of course. Sabrina Carpenter? Obviously. But a fighter pilot born in the early 1900s? Not so much.<\/p>\n

The Inquirer recently dug into the 2025 top five most-searched individuals born in Lower Merion or Narberth, with the tiny borough punching above its weight class. <\/p>\n

Topping the list is Narberth native Kylie Kelce, who gained traction online after her podcast \u201cNot Gonna Lie\u201d launched in late 2024. <\/p>\n

She\u2019s followed by two fellow Narberth natives, one a former Navy fighter pilot and the other a best-selling author. Rounding out the list is an MLB player and the former president of the Cleveland Browns. <\/p>\n

See who made the top five here<\/a>. <\/p>\n

In case you missed it, Lower Merion police are investigating a string of home burglaries. They believe thieves are targeting high-value houses that appear to be unoccupied<\/a>. <\/p>\n

A Lower Merion teen got booed during Monday night\u2019s Home Run Derby at Citizen\u2019s Bank Park. The Inquirer\u2019s Alex Coffey explains why \u2014 and how the 17-year-old Harriton High School alum sees the viral moment as a badge of honor<\/a>. <\/p>\n

New Kobe Bryant shoe releases appear to be in the works from Nike. The late Lower Merion basketball star\u2019s widow, Vanessa Bryant, recently offered a sneak peek<\/a>. <\/p>\n
