Taylor Swift Is the Captain of Travis Kelce's Cheer Squad at Chiefs Game

Taylor Swift has touched down in Kansas City.
Fresh off her seven wins at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, the "So High School" singer jetted to Missouri to cheer on boyfriend Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs in their Sept. 15 game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
For her latest outing at Arrowhead Stadium, Taylor—who arrived with mom Andrea Swift, brother Austin Swift and pals Este Haim and Danielle Haim—wore a long Chiefs T-shirt paired with thigh-high boots.
It was just days ago that Taylor, 34, gave Travis, also 34, a sweet shoutout from the VMAs stage while accepting the Video of the Year honor for her and Post Malone's "Fortnight" collab.
"It actually was the most fun video to make," she told the audience. "Something that I’ll always remember is when I finished a take and I’d say 'cut,' and we’d be done with that take, I would always hear someone cheering from across the studio where we were shooting it."
"That one person," Taylor added, "was my boyfriend Travis."
While Travis wasn't able to attend the ceremony, held at New York's UBS Arena, due to his practice schedule, he sent a message to Taylor ahead of the show.
“She’s nominated [for] about 10 of those things tonight,” he said on the Sept. 11 episode of his and Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast. “Hopefully, she can walk away with some Moonmen!”
And that she did, becoming the winningest solo artist in the history of the VMAs.
This show of support from both Travis and Taylor echoes her previous comments about their relationship.
"I'm going to see him do what he loves," she told TIME in December, "we're showing up for each other, other people are there and we don't care."
"The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you're seeing someone," the Grammy winner continued. "And we're just proud of each other."
And, no, she doesn't care what critics have to say about her NFL appearances.
"There's a camera, like, a half-mile away, and you don't know where it is, and you have no idea when the camera is putting you in the broadcast, so I don't know if I'm being shown 17 times or once," she explained. "I'm just there to support Travis. I have no awareness of if I'm being shown too much and pissing off a few dads, Brads, and Chads."
To revisit Taylor's game day looks, keep reading...
While supporting Travis Kelce as the Kansas City Chiefs faced off against the Chicago Bears on Sept. 24, her first-ever NFL game at Arrowhead Stadium, Taylor Swift sported DÔEN's white Lois Tank and Ksubi's distressed denim shorts, which she paired with a Chiefs windbreaker and matching New Balance sneakers.
For the Chiefs' Oct. 1 game against the New York Jets, held at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, Taylor wore Area's denim shorts, which quickly sold out. The singer completed the look with Christian Louboutin boots and Gant's relaxed leather shirt.
And Taylor couldn't forget her signature red lip for the star-studded game.
For the Chiefs' Oct. 12 game, where she spent time with Travis' dad Ed Kelce, Taylor wore a Chiefs jacket from WEAR, a line by Erin Andrews (who Travis has credited for connecting him with Taylor).
Taylor, who also spent time with quarterback Patrick Mahomes' wife Brittany Mahomes at the game, sported a Balenciaga corset top underneath the Chiefs jacket.
Taylor had an extra special accessory on her wrist for the Chiefs' Oct. 22 game: An Erimish bracelet with Travis' jersey number on it.
...we can't calm down.
Taylor sported a long red fleece jacket over a black high neck top, paired with her signature red lip.
The singer was all smiles as she watched the game with Brittany Mahomes.
For her ninth Chiefs game, Taylor sported a cream varsity jacket bearing the team's logo and a patch that read "Tay-Tay."
During a freezing Kansas City Chiefs-Miami Dolphins Game in Kansas City, Mo., Taylor cheers on her boyfriend and his team while wearing a custom-made puffer coat made to look like a Kelce Chiefs jersey, designed by Kristin Juszczyk, wife of San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk.
