Taylor Swift brought her whole family to cheer on Travis Kelce’s Saturday, January 18, playoff game — and made sure they properly represented Chiefs Kingdom.
Swift, 35, arrived at Kansas City Chiefs’ Arrowhead Stadium in a little black dress with a coordinating checked coat, which she paired with Chanel accessories. She was joined by her parents, Scott and Andrea, and her brother, Austin. They all were seen sporting Chiefs-branded windbreakers in social media footage.
The night before, Swift enjoyed dinner with her relatives at New York City hotspot Nobu before they traveled to Missouri.
Saturday’s matchup against the Houston Texans is the Chiefs’ first playoff game of the season after securing home field advantage and a first-round bye. The winner will advance to the AFC conference championship opposite either the Baltimore Ravens or the Buffalo Bills. The victor of that matchup will go on to represent the conference in the 2025 Super Bowl in February.
Taylor Swift kicked off the NFL postseason by rooting for Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs in a playoff game against the Houston Texans. The pop star, 35, supported the tight end, also 35, at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, during the divisional playoff game on Saturday, January 18, wearing a chic black […]
Should the Chiefs win the big game, they will make history as the first NFL squad to win the Super Bowl three times in a row. (Kelce, 35, has won with the team in 2020, 2023 and 2024, the latter of which Swift attended.)
“I haven’t heard anybody talk about anything ‘three-peat’ [or] anything like that,” Kelce told Chris Berman in an ESPN interview that aired on Saturday. “We’re focused on the Houston Texans right now.”
He added, “Anybody can get beat in the playoffs if you don’t come in with the right mentality and the right mindset dating back to training camp and throughout the season. We have such a veteran team. We have so many leaders in so many different ways. Guys step up and guys just understand the task at hand.”
Earlier this week, Kelce gushed about knowing Swift is in the stands to cheer him on at the games.
Taylor Swift has loved being the girl in the bleachers amid her blossoming romance with Travis Kelce. Swift made her first appearance at a Kansas City Chiefs game in September 2023, watching them defeat the Chicago Bears from the Kelce family’s private suite. After cheering alongside the tight end’s mom, Donna Kelce, she and Travis […]
“Me and Taylor are happy and I couldn’t be happier to have that confidence and that comfort off the field and all the support I could ever ask for in the stadium,” Kelce said on the Wednesday, January 15, episode of the Stephen A. Smith Show. “She loves coming to Arrowhead and coming to the games and cheering for me, so I got all the support in the world to keep chasing these dreams.”
Swift has been a fixture at Kelce’s NFL games since they started dating in 2023, often rocking chic game day outfits and custom “87” jewelry befitting her boyfriend’s jersey.
“Football is awesome,” she previously told TIME in a December 2023 profile. “Turns out I’ve been missing my whole life.”
