Pop superstar Taylor Swift's improbable global excursion to Super Bowl LVIII has been completed.
The singer arrived at Allegiant Stadium alongside rapper Ice Spice, actress Blake Lively and her mother, Andrea, to support her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, in his matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Swift's arrival comes hours after a private plane labeled 'The Football Era' completed its flight from Japan to Los Angeles after her 'Eras Tour' concert at the Tokyo Dome on Saturday.
On January 28, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Swift "could still get to the Super Bowl" due to "the international dateline" as Tokyo is 17 hours ahead and her concert would start at 1:00 a.m. Las Vegas time, "so the morning before, essentially," and she'd be able to arrive at some point Saturday night.
Swift has attended all of the Chiefs' games that haven't conflicted with her touring schedule since September. The singer broke her silence on her relationship with Kelce while being featured as Time Magazine's 'Person of the Year' in December.
Swift praised Kelce for "adorably" putting her "on blast" when he revealed on his 'New Heights' podcast last July that he attempted and failed to give her a bracelet with his phone number while attending her 'Eras Tour' concert in Kansas City. Swift added that the two had spent "significant" time together before she initially attended a Chiefs game at Arrowhead Stadium in September, at which point they were already "a couple."
“This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,” Swift said. “We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other. By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”
“When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care,” Swift added. “The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone. And we’re just proud of each other.”
