EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Taylor Swift couldn’t pass up another chance to see Travis Kelce on the football field.
The 12-time Grammy Award-winning artist arrived at MetLife Stadium about 40 minutes before kickoff Sunday night to watch Kelce and his Kansas City Chiefs defeat the New York Jets 23-20.
SNY posted a video of Swift, dressed in jean shorts, a long-sleeved black top and a fur jacket, entering the stadium security area with actors Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively and Hugh Jackman. The NBC broadcast showed Swift several times during the game, including a shot of the pop superstar with her arm around Kelce’s mother, Donna, who was wearing a jersey with her son’s No. 87.
Swift’s appearance comes a week after she was at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, dressed in red and white, to watch the Chiefs’ 41-10 victory over the Chicago Bears in a suite with Donna Kelce. Swift took advantage of an invitation from the star tight end to watch the game and was apparently eager to see more of Kelce and the Chiefs in action.
Swift is on a break from her Eras tour, which resumes on November 9 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. NBC played a commercial for the tour about 20 minutes before kickoff.
MetLife Stadium is a familiar venue for Swift, who performed three sold-out concerts there in May. Among those in attendance at two of those shows was Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who returned to the team this weekend after rupturing his left Achilles tendon on the fourth play of his debut with New York on Sept. 11.
Rodgers attended a team meeting Saturday night and was at the stadium watching players warm up from the sideline Sunday night.
Neither Swift nor Kelce have revealed any details about their relationship. Kelce said on her podcast “New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce” earlier this week that Swift “looked amazing” in the game.
“Everyone was talking about her and in a very positive way,” Kelce said of her time in the suite. “And on top of that, the day was perfect for Chiefs fans. Of course, we wrote the script for everything, ladies and gentlemen.”
Kelce had invited Swift to that game after trying in vain to give her a friendship bracelet when her Eras Tour made its stop in Kansas City.
