Buffalo Bills fans boo Taylor Swift as she cheers on boyfriend at Kansas City Chiefs' playoff game, Internet says 'like she gives a damn'

BUFFALO, NEW YORK: Taylor Swift is used to sold-out stadiums and legions of adoring fans screaming her name. But the pop superstar received a much frostier welcome when she attended the NFL playoff showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills on Sunday, January 21.

Swift braved below-freezing temperatures and a blizzard of boos as she cheered on her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, at the Bills' Highmark Stadium.

The 12-time Grammy winner touched down via private jet at Buffalo's airport around 4 pm Sunday, greeted on the tarmac by a police escort and a caravan of black SUVs.

Joining Swift in the exclusive box were Travis' brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, Jason's wife Kylie, and Travis and Jason's parents Ed and Donna Kelce.

Sources say Swift landed shortly after Travis himself touched down for final preparations with his team ahead of the high-stakes playoff matchup.

This is Swift's second time attending one of Travis' postseason games this year. Last week, she weathered frigid temperatures in Kansas City to support the Chiefs' Wild Card victory over the Miami Dolphins at Arrowhead Stadium.

At a press conference before the Bills game, Travis expressed excitement about facing the passionate Bills Mafia, acknowledging, "It's Bills Mafia, man. That's their home-field advantage. I'm sure the guys love playing for that fan base."

Despite the frosty reception, the Chiefs emerged victorious with a 27-24 win.

Meanwhile, an empathetic individual defended Swift, asserting, "Lol like she gives a damn; she's there to support Travis and have fun. She doesn't give two shits whether people boo her. It's immature and unbefitting and is frankly beneath her."

Adding to the discourse, a fifth user lauded Swift's response, stating, "And she handled it like a boss…She has class—unlike Buffalo haters." A sixth user addressed the Bills Mafia directly, stating, "Get a life Bills Mafia."
