Taylor Swift Returns to Arrowhead to Watch Travis Kelce, the Chiefs
Deep Look
Taylor Swift made her way back to Arrowhead Stadium on Monday to cheer on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his Kansas City Chiefs as they squared off against the New Orleans Saints. This marked Swift’s first in-stadium support in a few weeks, as she’d missed the Chiefs’ prior two away games while taking a short hiatus from her Eras Tour, which is set to resume shortly.
Swift’s high-profile Eras Tour, which has been breaking records across North America, returns on Friday for three shows at Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium. Following her performances in Miami, the tour will proceed with stops in New Orleans and Indianapolis, later wrapping up the North American leg with shows in Toronto and Vancouver through November and early December. The final show of the tour is set for December 8, capping off a landmark period in the pop superstar’s career.
During her break from the stage, Swift missed Kelce’s annual “Kelce Car Jam,” a popular charity car show organized by the Chiefs tight end in Kansas City. The event raises money for his 87 and Running foundation, a nonprofit supporting underserved youth in Kansas City and Cleveland. Kelce’s event was nonetheless a star-studded gathering, with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, in attendance, along with Kelce’s parents and his brother, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce.
Swift’s relationship with Kelce has been a focal point in pop culture and sports media since he invited her to his Chiefs-Bears game in September of last year. Since then, the two have spent time together frequently, their outings often followed by an entourage of paparazzi capturing each appearance.
In recent weeks, Swift maintained a relatively low profile following a busy September. She made headlines endorsing Kamala Harris, the Vice President, for re-election, collected seven MTV Video Music Awards, and attended another Chiefs game, where she watched Kansas City beat the Cincinnati Bengals.
Swift’s close relationship with the Mahomes family, especially Brittany Mahomes, has occasionally stirred conversation, especially after her public support for Harris over Donald Trump in the upcoming election. This endorsement reportedly led to brief friction, particularly after Patrick Mahomes’ wife liked—and then unliked—an Instagram post endorsing Trump’s campaign.
For his part, Patrick Mahomes has remained apolitical, choosing not to make any endorsement. Instead, he focuses on encouraging civic engagement, urging fans to register to vote and do their own research before casting their ballots. “I don’t want my place and my platform to be used to endorse a candidate,” Mahomes clarified, emphasizing the importance of people forming their own views to make informed decisions that align with their personal beliefs.
