Taylor Swift Arrives in Las Vegas Flanked by Her A-List Entourage

Tensions boiled over for Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce during the second quarter of Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII, when the tight end unloaded a verbal tirade at his coach, Andy Reid, apparently over his decision to take Kelce out of the game for a play.

The conflict broke out just moments after a crucial red-zone fumble by Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco—a tough break that Kelce seemed to think he could have prevented were he on the field.

The play turned the tides of the low-scoring game—which San Francisco leads 10-3 at halftime.

Kelce has a heap of additional pressure on his shoulders after a historic season—and the millions of new fans he gained, both for himself and the sport as a whole, after his relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift was revealed last year.

Swift arrived at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas Sunday afternoon for the game following a mad dash across the Pacific Ocean after playing a show in Tokyo, Japan Saturday night.

Online sleuths and superfans tracked her journey every step of the way, with paparazzi staking out airports in Japan and the United States in an attempt to get a shot of her boarding and disembarking her private jet—though her security detail hid her from view with a blue umbrella after she disembarked at Los Angeles International Airport. Swift made the final leg of her globe-spanning journey by getaway car, arriving at the stadium just after 4 p.m.

She was flanked by famous friends Blake Lively and Ice Spice, the latter of which she was spotted introducing to Jason Kelce, the brother of her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce. Also in the entourage were Swift’s mom, Andrea, and friend Ashley Avignone, a fashion designer. Swift, Avignone, Lively, and Ice Spice were seen coolly strolling into the Las Vegas stadium as a posse on Sunday afternoon.

Swift wore an all-black ensemble, including a bomber jacket made by veteran sports reporter Erin Andrews’ fashion brand WEAR, according to People.

“Well, I know who my best dressed is today!” Andrews wrote on her Instagram story. “#Grateful.”

The singer was also sporting a bejeweled necklace with an “87” Pendant—which also happens to be Travis Kelce’s number.

Swift could be seen taking in the game from a private box alongside both her family and the Kelces—which apparently cost over $1 million, paid for in total by Travis Kelce.

Social media videos showed Swift and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell in what appeared to be a deep conversation; Swift could be seen nodding as Goodell talks directly to her.

In another video, Swift can be seen alongside her father, Scott, talking with Kylie Kelce, a hockey player and the wife of Kelce’s brother, Jason.
