Taylor Swift was not at Kelce Car Jam, Travis Kelce’s event on his birthday (Saturday, Oct. 5) — but she is expected to attend his next game, the Chiefs player says.
“She will not be here. I know she’s coming in for the game,” the tight end answered when asked about his girlfriend on Saturday, according to Page Six‘s coverage of the event.
Swift, who was last spotted with Kelce the weekend of the U.S. Open (Sept. 8), wasn’t seen at the Kansas City Chiefs’ last two away games. The Chiefs are scheduled for a home game against the New Orleans Saints on Monday (Oct. 7) at Arrowhead Stadium.
People reports Kelce was joined by parents Donna and Ed, brother Jason and sister-in-law Kylie at Kelce Car Jam. Guests included Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany.
Kelce Car Jam is an annual car exhibition that helps raise money for underserved youth in the Kansas City and Cleveland areas with 87 and Running, Travis’ nonprofit organization.
On a recent episode of New Heights, the podcast he hosts with his brother Jason, Travis described the day: “This year is the second year we’ve done a car show, basically a block-party style event, that will showcase some of the city’s top automobiles from the Fuel House, a fun car club out here. And then I guess a bunch of others that are lined up. It’s gonna be fun. I should have my old school ’70 Chevelle all revved up and ready to rock and roll. But if not, I’ll bring one of the other cars that I have.”
Swift recently thanked Kelce in her video of the year acceptance speech at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards, held on Sept. 11.
“This video seems very sad when you watch it, but it was actually the most fun video to make,” she said of “Fortnight.” “I would always just hear someone cheering, like, ‘Whoo!’ from across the studio — that one person was my boyfriend, Travis. Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic, so I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot.”
She’ll soon be back to The Eras Tour for its final leg, with dates in Miami, New Orleans, Indianapolis, Toronto and Vancouver. The career-spanning show has its last performance on Dec. 8. The “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” star has kept quiet about whatever she has up her sleeve for the remainder of 2024 and early 2025.
