Oh, here we go again: Taylor Swift is back at Arrowhead Stadium to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce at the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Baltimore Ravens.
The “Tortured Poets” singer arrived at the first game of the regular season just before 6 p.m. on Thursday night, just over an hour before kickoff. Videos posted on Twitter show the star walking through the back aisles of the stadium before taking the elevator to her suite. She’s wearing a blue jean corset and shorts with shiny maroon over-the-knee boots. Her blue top, designed by Versace, is worth $1,325.
In a video posted by Kansas City FOX4 sports director Rob Collins, Swift walked by and said, “Hi, how are you guys?”
The singer-songwriter is taking a two-month break from her major Eras Tour, which still has five cities left. The superstar may be able to attend the first five games of the regular season before returning to the stage for nine nights in Miami, New Orleans and Indianapolis in late October and early November. She may be able to attend the Monday night game between the Chiefs and Tampa Bay Buccaneers on November 4 and support the red and gold boys at five more games. Her final show in Toronto, Canada, on December 8 falls on the same day as the Los Angeles Chargers game, but she may be able to attend the final four games of the regular season.
Is Swift a lucky charm for the Chiefs?
In October, head coach Andy Reid admitted during a press conference that the singer could be a good luck charm after Swift appeared for just over 20 seconds during an NFL broadcast and sparked controversy.
“Kelce is getting better with time. Taylor can stay as long as she wants,” he said.
Last year, the Chiefs’ record with Swift in the crowd was 10-3:
- September 24: Chiefs beat the Bears 41-10
- October 1: Chiefs beat the Jets 23-20
- October 12: Chiefs beat the Broncos 19-8
- October 22: Chiefs beat the Chargers 31-17
- December 3: Packers beat the Chiefs 27-19
- December 10: Bills beat the Chiefs 20-17
- December 17: Chiefs beat Patriots 27-17
- December 25: Raiders beat the Chiefs 20-14
- December 31: Chiefs beat the Bengals 25-17
- January 13: Chiefs beat the Dolphins 26-7
- January 21: Chiefs beat the Bills 27-24
- January 28: Chiefs beat the Ravens 17-10
- Super Bowl on February 11: Chiefs beat the 49ers 25-22
Kelce confirmed that Swift was intrigued by learning the rules of football after quarterback Patrick Mahomes told NBC’s Chris Simms that the singer was “asking a lot of good questions” and “started working out plays.”
“I think what makes her so good at her job is she’s so detail-oriented in every aspect, from the lyrics to the music to the releases and music videos and everything,” Kelce said in an interview with “The Rich Eisen Show.” “She’s so detail-oriented and part of it is I think she was just curious about the job. I know none of the pieces have reached Coach (Andy) Reid yet, but if they ever do, I’ll make sure everyone knows it was her creation.”
Where can I watch the Chiefs vs Ravens game?
