Taylor Swift could have plenty of new material for another album.
The Grammy Award-winning recording artist is rumored to be dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. The two superstars have been frontpage news since Swift was spotted attending the Chiefs’ home game on Sunday alongside Kelce’s mother Donna.

The Chiefs rolled to victory against the Chicago Bears that day as -12.5 point favorites, with Kelce finding the end zone once for his new lady.
Perhaps we all should have seen this coming back in 2019 when Swift sang, “We were a fresh page on the desk, filling in the blanks as we go, as if the street lights pointed in an Arrowhead leading us home.”
So, how did the two meet? Kelce attended a Swift concert in July and then took to social media to sulk about not being able to actually meet the celebrated musician. He then did what any fearless bachelor would do and threw a Hail Mary that was caught at the goal line before breaking the plane, and breaking the Internet all in one “swift” motion.
There have been memes made, GIFs shared, and viral TikToks created, and it doesn’t appear to be slowing down anytime soon. Just look at the effect Swift’s presence has had on Kelce jersey sales:
