WASHINGTON, DC: Taylor Swift's absence from Vice President Kamala Harris’ final campaign rally on Monday night has fueled speculation that she’ll be on the sidelines cheering for her rumored boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce.

As the Kansas City Chiefs prepare for a 'Monday Night Football' face-off with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Arrowhead Stadium, Swift is notably absent from the list of musical guests at Harris' last rally before the upcoming presidential election, as per Daily Mail.

Taylor Swift publicly endorsed Kamala Harris in passionate post in September

Though Taylor Swift publicly endorsed Kamala Harris in a passionate Instagram post in September, it appears the pop icon is prioritizing personal time post-tour rather than participating in the Pennsylvania rally, where high-profile entertainers like Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and Fat Joe are slated to perform.

Swift’s choice not to join Harris on the campaign trail may suggest she’ll be supporting the Chiefs instead.

Swift’s political endorsement of Kamala Harris earlier this fall raised hopes that the 'Shake It Off' singer would be a prominent face in Harris' final campaign events.

In her widely shared social media post, Swift voiced her support for Harris, noting that the vice president’s stance on issues like LGBTQ+ rights, reproductive freedom, and steady leadership deeply resonated with her.

“I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” Swift shared with her 272 million Instagram followers.

She praised Harris’ “steady-handed, gifted leadership” as a much-needed departure from what she called a “chaotic” alternative, referring indirectly to her disapproval of Trump’s policies.

With such a bold endorsement, it was anticipated that Swift might take her support from the digital world to a live stage appearance as Election Day approached.

Taylor Swift not on roster of musical acts for Kamala Harris’ final campaign events

Yet, NBC’s Garrett Haake reported that Taylor Swift was not on the roster of musical acts for Kamala Harris’ final campaign events.

Instead, the Monday night rally will host performances from pop icons Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, and Fat Joe, who have been vocal Harris supporters throughout her campaign.

Swift’s final show of the US leg of her Eras Tour concluded Sunday night in Indianapolis, leaving her schedule theoretically open until her next concert in Toronto on November 14.

Swift’s absence from the rally indicates she may be en route to Kansas City, hoping to catch Kelce and the Chiefs in action against the Buccaneers.

Swift’s potential appearance at the game aligns with a trend this season; she’s been spotted supporting Kelce at several Chiefs games.



 

Swift’s relationship with Chiefs’ star tight end Travis Kelce has been a whirlwind in both the music and sports worlds this season.

After attending the Chiefs’ season opener against the Baltimore Ravens and their second game against the Cincinnati Bengals, Swift’s presence at Arrowhead Stadium became a media spectacle.

She was last spotted supporting Kelce on October 7, where Kansas City maintained their winning streak with a victory over the New Orleans Saints.
