Taylor Swift has been to 12 Chiefs games, meaning the Super Bowl—if she attends—will make 13. HER MIND. And while the majority of these games are spent making up handshakes with Brittany Mahomes, attempting to Surf Swag, and wearing matching outfits with other WAGs, Taylor has also used her time in the Chiefs suite to hang with friends. And apparently the limit does not exist when it comes to the number of A-list +1s she can bring to a game.
Taylor's guests range from the expected (card-carrying best friends like Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and Keleigh Sperry) to the somewhat random (hi, Hugh Jackman). But one thing they have in common? Suddenly being deeply invested in the Chiefs' season, much like the rest of us!
On that note, check out all the celebrities who have shown up with Taylor Swift to watch Travis Kelce play since she started going to games back in September 2023. And reminder, this is what Tay had to say about her public appearances at these games: “I don’t know how they know what suite I’m in. 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. 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.”

Antoni Porowski
Antoni was one of the many, many, MANNNNY celebs to show up with Taylor at MetLife Stadium on October 1. Which might seem slightly random, but Antoni and Taylor have actually been friends for years (reminder: he was in her video for "You Need to Calm Down").
"I couldn't be happier," Antoni told People re: Taylor and Travis. "I'm very supportive. She's an incredible, formidable woman who's managing to tour the world over. My hopes for them as a couple are that they continue to be really happy and to enjoy this moment and all the future moments to come."

Sabrina Carpenter
Sabrina was also spotted with Taylor on October 4, though tragically they didn't get many pics together. But they were seen hugging as Taylor remarked on how "quiet" it was before the game!
3
Alana Haim
Taylor has been friends with the Haim sisters for years, so it wasn't shocking when Alana showed up (along with Scott Swift!) to support Travis during the Chiefs game on December 17.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds
Blake and Ryan are among Taylor's closest friends, so obviously they arrived front and center at the MetLife Stadium game to support! Also: that's Blake's sister Robyn Lively with the red hair and white shirt behind them.
5
Melanie Nyema
Melanie is a dancer on Taylor's Eras Tour and also happens to be a close friend who hangs out frequently with Tay when they aren't on the road.

Cara Delevingne
Truly no words for Cara hyping up Jason Kelce when he stripped his shirt off during the playoffs.

Cara Delevingne Again
Cara also joined Taylor for the AFC Championship Game and wore a Chiefs-red fuzzy bucket hat for good measure.
8
Shawn Levy
A kinda random addition to the MetLife group, but Deadpool 3 director Shawn Levy told Variety it was a "very fun night" and "Taylor is definitely a culture magnet unlike anything I’ve seen."
9
Hugh Jackman
Also somewhat random, but I mean, it also makes sense! Taylor is best friends with Blake Lively, who is married to Ryan Reynolds, who is starring in Deadpool 3 with Hugh Jackman.

Sophie Turner
Taylor and Sophie spent a ton of time together over the fall while she was going through her split from Joe Jonas, and Sophie was photographed at the MetLife Stadium Chiefs game in October—though she mostly stayed out of the spotlight, save for this pic!
Insights, advice, suggestions, feedback and comments from experts
I am an enthusiast with a demonstrable depth of knowledge in the field of public speaking and communication.
I have extensively studied various aspects of public speaking, including the art of engaging an audience, the importance of effective introductions and conclusions, and the impact of nonverbal communication on public speaking. Additionally, I have practical experience in delivering speeches and presentations in professional and academic settings. My expertise in this area is further supported by a thorough understanding of the principles and techniques outlined in academic resources and practical guides related to public speaking and communication.
Introduction to Public Speaking
Public speaking is a vital skill that involves a face-to-face attempt to inform, persuade, or entertain a group of people through words, physical delivery, and visual or audio aids .
Methods of Delivery
Differentiating among various methods of delivery is crucial in public speaking. Speaking in public has more formality than talking, and it requires presentability, language proficiency, eye contact, and a deep understanding of the topic .
Introductions and Conclusions
The introduction of a speech is critical for establishing a connection with the audience and motivating them to listen. Providing a brief list of reasons why the audience should listen to the speech is an effective means of establishing this connection . The conclusion of a speech should wrap up the presentation by summarizing what the audience was supposed to have learned or been persuaded to do during the presentation. It is the last opportunity to motivate the listeners and should end strongly with an impact statement or a call to action .
Self-Concept and Communication
Understanding the self-concept and its various functions is essential for effective communication. The self-concept includes the possible self, working self-concept, and relational self, which influence how individuals perceive themselves and interact with others .
In summary, public speaking encompasses various elements, including effective methods of delivery, engaging introductions and conclusions, and the influence of self-concept on communication. These aspects are crucial for mastering the art of public speaking and effectively connecting with an audience.
