Taylor Swift Joins WNBA Star Caitlin Clark For First Public Appearance at Chiefs Game Since Travis Kelce Engagement

Taylor Swift has been a little busy lately promoting her The Life of a Showgirl album. But on Sunday (Oct. 12), the singer took some time out from her album duties to support fiancé Travis Kelce at his job. Though Swift has been a fixture at Kansas City Chiefs games over the past few years, Sunday marked the first time the singer was shown on a Chiefs broadcast this season since the couple got engaged in August.

Ensconced in a VIP suite alongside Kelce’s parents — and her future in-laws — Ed and Donna Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium, Swift watched the Chiefs get level at 3-3 for the season as they defeated the Detroit Lions and Travis had a solid day with six receptions and 78 yards, his highest total to date this season.

The singer also spent some more quality time with WNBA star Caitlin Clark, after missing the Chief’s game last Monday night due to her Tonight Show taping in New York. During the first half of the game, the NBC Sunday Night Football crew tossed to the suite to show Swift excitedly hugging her future father-in-law, who was wearing a Kelce jersey, while Swift’s game day outfit featured a mini Chiefs jersey dress with red striping detail in a nod to KC’s colors.

According to reports, Swift attended two other games this season — a loss to the Eagles during week two and a win against the Ravens on Sept. 28 — though she entered both of those quietly and was not shown on either broadcast. She was also not on hand on Sept. 5 when the Chiefs kicked off their season with a loss to the L.A. Chargers in São Paulo, Brazil.

In addition to the Chiefs hard-won victory, Swift had plenty to celebrate this weekend, as Showgirl broke a modern-era record for the most albums sold in a week in the United States. The LP’s first week sales consumption figure (equivalent album units, which includes pure sales, streams and track sales) and pure album sales figure running up to a historic 3.4 million in pure album sales (physical and digital purchases), making it the largest sales week for any album since Luminate began electronically tracking music data in 1991, when the modern era of weekly music tabulation began; the final sales figures from Luminate were due to be announced on Sunday (Oct. 12).
