Taylor Swift SADDENED and HEARTBROKEN after Andy Reid unveils 2 reason why Travis Kelce won’t be able to play chiefs vs Eagles Game.
Though Taylor Swift fans were hopeful that she’d attend the Kansas City Chiefs’ next game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday, Nov. 20, the “Karma” singer cannot make an appearance.
After postponing her “Eras Tour” performance in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Saturday, Nov. 18, she rescheduled the concert for Monday, Nov. 20. Because Rio de Janeiro and Kansas City have just a three-hour time difference, it would be impossible for the singer to be there Monday night.
Fans were awaiting Swift’s possible appearance because ever since she allegedly started dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, she’s been showing up to several of his football games and cheering him on in the stands. So far, Swift has been to three Chiefs games.
Monday night’s game is already drawing eyes as Travis Kelce will face his brother, Jason Kelce, a center for the Eagles, following their iconic Super Bowl pairing in February.
To promote the upcoming game, the official Instagram account for the Chiefs posted some photos of the Kelce brothers together, and in the comments, fans said they couldn’t wait for Swift to make an appearance.
“As long as Taylor Swift comes to the game, lol,” one person wrote with three crying-laughing emoji.
Another said, “I can’t wait to see Taylor!! And you guys,” adding a smiley face emoji.
A third added, “The Swifties will be our secret weapon to get this win,” with three fire emoji.
Aside from the Kelce brothers showdown, the game was expected to show where Swift’s support truly lies — although maybe she’ll be cheering from Brazil.
The “Karma” singer notably grew up an Eagles fan in Pennsylvania and hasn’t been shy about being faithful to her roots. During an “Eras Tour” concert in May, Swift confirmed that the “Eagles” mention in her 2020 song, “Gold Rush,” was in reference to the team.
The West Reading, Pennsylvania, native clarified that the T-shirt in question during the line, “With my Eagles t-shirt hanging from the door,” was paying tribute to the football team — and not the classic rock act.
“Guys, like, c’mon. I’m from Philly. Of course it’s the team,” she told the crowd at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia in a video shared by the NFL.
Swift has also been known to wear a custom Eagles jersey in the past, according to ESPN.
Despite her devout recent fandom for the Chiefs, the Eagles still seem to claim Swift as one of their own, including her among the crowd of Philadelphia icons on the cover of “A Philly Special Christmas Special.”
When asked if Swift’s loyalty shift to Kansas City has been a sting for the Eagles, the team’s quarterback Jalen Hurts told TODAY.com that he understands her decision.
“It’s nothing personal,” he said, with a laugh. “I’m just focused on winning games. Nothing else really matters.”
The first game that Swift attended was the Chiefs matchup against the Chicago Bears. For the Sept. 24 game, Swift wore a red and white jacket and she also sported her signature red lipstick when she cheered on Kelce alongside his mother, Donna Kelce.
Then, on Oct. 1, Swift attended her second Chiefs game, where she saw the team play against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
At the event, Swift was spotted with an entourage of famous friends, including Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Sophie Turner, Hugh Jackman and more. Then, before the game, she was seen grabbing a bite to eat with her girlfriends, including Brittany Mahomes, who’s married to Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
The last game that Swift attended was the Chiefs matchup against the Denver Broncos. During the game, Swift was photographed chatting with Travis Kelce’s mom, who sported a TODAY friendship bracelet, alongside her husband.
