Taylor Swift Trades Politics for Football, Cheers on Boyfriend Travis Kelce and the Undefeated Chiefs

After wrapping up the final leg of her massively successful Eras Tour, pop superstar Taylor Swift is putting her political allegiances on hold to focus on supporting her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, as his team battles the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday Night Football.

Swift, who had been rumored to be making an appearance at a pre-Election Day rally for Vice President Kamala Harris in Pennsylvania, instead opted to don her best Chiefs gear and head to Arrowhead Stadium to cheer on Kelce and the undefeated Chiefs.

Strutting Into Arrowhead In Style

Footage captured Swift arriving at the stadium, strutting past photographers in knee-high black boots, black shorts, a black top, and a vintage-style Kansas City leather jacket. Her mother, Andrea Swift, escorted her to the southwest tunnel in a golf cart. Swift’s bold, classic red lipstick and winning smile made it clear she was eager to support her boyfriend and his team on this highly anticipated Monday night showdown.

A Perfect Night For The Undefeated Chiefs

As the Chiefs and Buccaneers battled it out in front of a packed Arrowhead crowd, Swift took her seat in the VIP suite alongside Kelce’s mother, Donna Kelce, and her own brother, Austin Swift.

The Chiefs ultimately emerged victorious in overtime, winning by a score of 24-17. Kelce himself had a standout performance, catching 14 passes for 100 yards, despite a crucial fumble in the first half. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes also overcame a scary-looking ankle injury in the fourth quarter, returning to lead his team to victory.

Swift’s Unwavering Support For Kelce

This isn’t the first time Swift has made an appearance at Arrowhead Stadium to support Kelce and the Chiefs. In fact, the pop icon has attended every single one of the team’s home games this regular season.

Her dedication to her boyfriend’s team has even manifested in lyrical changes during her Eras Tour shows. When Kelce is in attendance or the Chiefs win on a show day, Swift alters the line in her song “Karma” to “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me.”

A Swift Political Pivot

Swift is defying the trend of many of her A-list peers who have made high-profile appearances at Democratic campaign events this election cycle by opting to attend the Chiefs game instead of the Kamala Harris rally in Pennsylvania.

Singers like Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera, Usher, Eminem, and Beyoncé have all lent their star power to Harris and other Democratic candidates in the run-up to Tuesday’s midterm elections.

However, Swift’s decision to prioritize her boyfriend’s football game over a political rally suggests she may be putting some distance between herself and the Democratic party, at least for the time being. It’s a notable shift for the pop star, who had previously endorsed Harris and other Democratic candidates, including President Joe Biden, in the 2020 election.

A Night Of Celebration In Chiefs Kingdom

The Chiefs’ faithful celebrated Swift’s presence at Arrowhead Stadium, regardless of her political leanings. Fans were eager to catch a glimpse of the global superstar, who has become a fixture in the Kansas City community thanks to her relationship with Kelce.

The win also extended the Chiefs’ perfect start to the season, cementing their status as one of the NFL’s elite teams. With Kelce and Mahomes leading the way, the squad is poised for another deep postseason run.

As for Swift, she’ll have just nine more Eras Tour shows to complete before wrapping up the mammoth tour on December 8th. But for one night, at least, the music icon traded politics for football, putting her full support behind her boyfriend and his undefeated Chiefs.
