The new NFL season is now underway, which means an inevitable degree of focus on pop sensation Taylor Swift.
It might not be to every football fan’s liking, but the sensational songstress’s coupling with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce last season drew plenty of attention, not least when Swift herself appeared at certain games to cheer her boyfriend on.
That culminated with last season’s Super Bowl – which the Chiefs won versus the San Francisco 49ers – when Swift’s presence threatened to overshadow the game itself. Such is her undeniable star power, ladies and gentlemen, and that doesn’t look like changing anytime soon.
No, the Swift-Kelce romance rumbled on throughout the post-season, and the Anti-Hero singer was in attendance to watch Kelce and the Chiefs take on the Baltimore Ravens on September 5, 2024.
Swift made a grand entrance at Arrowhead Stadium, dressed in a chic Medusa ’95 Versace denim corset top paired with thigh-high red Giuseppe Zanotti boots and complemented by a Louis Vuitton handbag.
While we’ll go on record as saying that Swift looked nothing short of radiant, there were those who apparently thought differently.

It shouldn’t surprise people these days that folk on the internet are ever ready to drag someone else down from behind the safety of their computer screens. Even a global phenomenon such as Taylor Swift has to deal with unwarranted criticism on a regular basis, and it was no different when she showed her face to support Kelce in the Chiefs’ NFL opener.
“She’s getting thick 👀 … 🤰?” one person wrote, hinting at a possible pregnancy.
Another wrote harshly: “So tacky! Can she not get a fashion consultant!”
“With all her money one would think she could have had her stylist pick out a better outfit,” a third chimed.
Others, it must be said, came to Swift’s defense, with many praising her figure.
“Can’t believe some people say she ‘put on too much weight.’ She looks better like this than she did as a stick figure,” one person wrote.
Another chimed: “Definitely find her more attractive with some extra meat on her bones. Never liked the twig physique.”
Videos from the game showed Swift engaging with Kelce’s parents, Ed and Donna, from the comfort of the Chiefs tight end’s box. Following the Chiefs’ victory, Travis and Taylor were then spotted leaving Arrowhead Stadium together.
