Pop star Taylor Swift, the girlfriend of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, is attending her first Chiefs game since Week 2 on Monday night.
Swift was spotted entering Kansas City’s stadium leading up to the team’s matchup with the New Orleans Saints.
Swift, 34, has been in a relationship with Kelce — who turned 35 on Saturday — since last year. She first began appearing at Chiefs games in September of last season.

The Chiefs won 26-13 and Kelce contributed nice catches for 70 yards. In a twist, Khalen Saunders, her backup dancer’s brother had one of the highlights of the game when he intercepted Patrick Mahomes.
While Swift missed an unremarkable performance by Kelce in Week 3, she did miss his breakout game against the Chargers in Week 4. Against a divisional rival, Kelce had his best day of the season, catching seven passes for 89 yards.
Though Kansas City is undefeated, Kelce hasn’t played up to his usual standard this year. Through four games, he is averaging the fewest yards per reception and yards per game of his career. He also has no touchdowns entering Monday.
The Chiefs’ offense definitely could use Kelce’s contributions. The team is missing last season’s leading rusher, Isiah Pacheco, after he broke a fibula in Week 2, as well as its leading receiver, Rashee Rice, who is reportedly likely out for the season.
