KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Taylor Swift is back in the spotlight, and it’s clear she has already made her presence felt during this season’s NFL playoffs. On Sunday night, the celebrated singer and 14-time Grammy winner attended Arrowhead Stadium to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as the Kansas City Chiefs triumphed over the Buffalo Bills with a score of 32-29, securing their third consecutive Super Bowl appearance.
As confetti cascaded onto the field after the victory, Swift and Kelce shared a kiss, embodying the joy of the moment. The pop icon embraced Chiefs head coach Andy Reid enthusiastically and celebrated alongside Kelce’s mother, Donna, and an exuberant crowd of about 80,000 fans who lingered to revel in the triumph.
“I’m really grateful to be here in Kansas City, playing alongside my teammates and everyone in this organization,” Kelce remarked after the game. Although he recorded only two catches for 19 yards due to the Bills’ defensive strategy, he expressed his appreciation for the environment. “This place is extraordinary, and we feel it every day. We aim to seize every moment and ensure we don’t let any opportunities slip away.”
Swift and Kelce began dating last season after he invited her to a game, and their relationship grew stronger as they celebrated each other’s success. Last year, during the playoffs, Swift was seen reveling with Kelce following the Chiefs’ stunning win over the Ravens in Baltimore for the AFC championship.
The couple made headlines when Swift hurried from a concert in Tokyo to the Super Bowl in Las Vegas, managing to arrive in time for the game. She became a focal point at the event, seemingly winning a beer-chugging contest and mingling with fellow celebrities like Blake Lively, Ice Spice, and Lana Del Rey. The night culminated in another sweet kiss on the field as Kelce held the Lombardi Trophy high after the Chiefs’ narrow 25-22 defeat of the 49ers.
On Sunday, Swift arrived at her suite approximately 90 minutes prior to the game against the Bills. While she dazzled in Chanel during their previous win against Houston, this time she opted for an elegant black-and-gold ensemble by Louis Vuitton, complete with a $5,000 jacquard knit jacket and an $830 stocking cap. This is likely modest compared to the anticipated prices of suites during the Super Bowl.
Swift is expected to be in New Orleans among her celebrity friends when the Chiefs aim for an unprecedented third consecutive Lombardi Trophy against the Eagles on February 9. The team, led by Patrick Mahomes, exhibited strong performances, aided by crucial defensive plays that ended the Bills’ season for the fourth time in five years.
“There is nothing quite like playing at Arrowhead for an AFC championship,” Kelce shared. “The energy in the stadium was electrifying, and we needed that support as much as ever. That Buffalo team was one of the best we’ve faced, and I have immense respect for them. They truly challenged us.”
