Brittany Mahomes embraced Taylor Swift's game-day look while cheering Chiefs in Atlanta
Expectant Brittany Mahomes appeared to have drawn style cues from her BFF Taylor Swift for her Sunday night game day outfit. Brittany attended the game on Sunday, September 22, at Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium, wearing knee-length red cowboy boots and an oversized Kansas City Chiefs shirt while supporting her husband Patrick Mahomes and his colleagues.
Swift opted for a similar look just a week earlier when she attended the Chiefs vs. Cincinnati Bengals game at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday, September 15. She wore an oversized red and white shirt with thigh-high black boots. Brittany's red boots also brought back memories of the 'Karma' singer's maroon boots from her stunning appearance at the season opener.
Taylor Swift skips first Chiefs game of season as Travis Kelce's Chiefs face off against Falcons
Taylor Swift did not attend her first NFL game of the season on the night of Sunday, September 22, while her boyfriend Travis Kelce performed poorly for the Kansas City Chiefs. The singer was not seen arriving at Mercedes-Benz Stadium for the match or leaving the city in Georgia. Meanwhile, Kelce showed up donning a red pair of sneakers and an oversized black suit.
Swift was present at the Chiefs' first two 2024 season games, which took place in Kansas City, but not in Atlanta. The singer flew thousands of miles to support the team throughout the previous season, including a nearly 5,000-mile flight from Tokyo to Las Vegas to attend the Super Bowl in February. However, she declined the opportunity to travel with the Chiefs to Atlanta, even though there is now a gap in her Eras Tour schedule.
Travis Kelce appears miserable following Taylor Swift's absence from Atlanta game
Following Taylor Swift's decision not to attend her first Chiefs game of the season on Sunday night, Travis Kelce was once again an imitation of his former self for the Kansas City Chiefs. Furthermore, the Chiefs tight end appeared despondent on the sidelines in a viral video during their 22-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, where he struggled to make an impact.
At the end of the first half, a frustrated Kelce—who finished with just four receptions for 30 yards in Atlanta—was spotted rubbing his right eye and then dejectedly staring into space while sitting on the bench. For the 34-year-old, who hopes to add a fourth Super Bowl ring to his collection in 2024, the start of the season has been unusually slow. His disappointed body language quickly caught up by fans, who wrote on X, "He’s been Swifted."
Travis Kelce can face severe NFL fine due to his Taylor Swift-inspired celebration
Travis Kelce's trademark "bow and arrow" celebration, which his girlfriend Taylor Swift adapted during a London concert earlier this year, might result in a significant NFL fine. Several NFL players, including Kelce, usually do the "bow and arrow" gesture when they score. The Kansas City Chiefs released a video of the tight end rehearsing his touchdown celebration against a white backdrop earlier this year. In June, Swift even mimicked the action during her first London show of the Eras Tour.
The pop artist initially imitated shooting an arrow from a bow while singing her song 'So High School,' which had the lyrics: "I've been the archer, I've been the prey." Swift appropriately used the gesture while singing her song 'The Archer' at an earlier stop on her Eras Tour. Wide receiver Andrei Iosivas was fined $5,305 (£4,000) by NFL Networks Tom Pelissero for what the league called "unsportsmanlike conduct/violent gesture."

Flavor Flav declares he will try to make it to as many of Taylor Swift's upcoming gigs as possible
Flavor Flav, a lifelong Taylor Swift fan and Public Enemy rapper, has recently declared that he would be attending multiple concerts throughout the Eras Tour and has no intention of giving up his "King Swiftie" title anytime soon. He said that he intends to attend "as many as I can make" of the pop superstar's forthcoming gigs, indicating that he is not done with the current tour just yet.
Flav said, "I know I'm going to one of them in Florida. After that, I don't know, as many as I could go to. As many as I can, as many as my schedule will permit me to go to, at least." The rapper has previously witnessed Taylor Swift perform live, including during her Detroit Eras Tour stop at Ford Field in 2023, her Los Angeles Eras Tour event at SoFi Stadium in August 2023, and the debut of 'Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour' movie in October 2023.
