With several Grammy Award wins under her belt and millions of albums sold, music chart record breaker, Taylor Swift is undoubtably a global pop star. Still, in some parts of the world, like the UK, there are some figures far more known than her, including The Royal Family.

Yesterday (June 21), Prince William and gang decided to celebrate his birthday by attending the “Fortnight” singer’s The Eras Tour stop at Wembley Stadium.

Today (June 22), photos of Prince William, Princes George, Princess Charlotte, and Swift backstage were shared online.

“Thank you, Taylor Swift, for a great evening! #LondonTSTheErastour,” wrote a representative of The Royal Family.

In Swift’s flick, she was sure to include her beau Travis Kelce, who was spotted singing along in the crowd by concertgoers.

“Happy Bday M8,” wrote Swift. “London shows are off to a splendid start 🇬🇧🇺🇸🤝

Just like in Swift’s performance across the US, The Royal Family celebrated Swift’s arrival by having service people from the British Army and The Royal Corps of Army Music perform “Changing of the Guard (Taylor’s Version)” a cleverly named cover of Swift’s hit song “Shake It Off.”

With two more London shows scheduled for tonight and tomorrow (June 23), ticket holders are excited to see what’s next.

Travis Kelce Visits The White House With Taylor Swift Nowhere In Sight

It seems like Travis Kelce is going solo to the Chiefs’ White House bash. In a video that Kansas City just uploaded, he may be seen boarding a bus to 1600 Penn Avenue without seeing Taylor Swift. Joe Biden was scheduled to recognize Kelce, Patrick Mahomes, and the other 2023 Super Bowl victors this afternoon. Many had questioned if the K.C. tight end’s well-known girlfriend would attend. Ultimately, she’s taking a little vacation from her “Eras” tour dates, and according to White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, every Taylor Swift fan in the office was definitely hoping to see her. However, it looks like the pop sensation is sticking overseas for the time being. 

Travis Kelce was photographed traveling solo dolo as he boarded the team’s vehicle. The tight end was looking good in a tan suit and black tie. Of course, there’s still a chance that Taylor might make it there. Since none of the Chiefs seemed to be traveling with their significant others on the bus earlier on Friday, it is absolutely feasible that she took a different route to go to the President’s residence.

Travis Kelce Visits White House Without Taylor Swift

Joe Biden, in a moment of honor, will present the Chiefs with an award for their thrilling overtime victory against the San Francisco 49ers during the Super Bowl in Las Vegas in February. The head coach, Andy Reid, and the star players, Mahomes and Travis Kelce, all looked dapper in their suits. As they disembarked from the aircraft, Rashee Rice and Wanya Morris, who had also faced legal issues this summer, shared a photo together. This event marks another instance of the long-standing tradition of professional and collegiate championship sports teams being welcomed to the White House.

In the last five years, the Chiefs have won three Super Bowls. Travis Kelce and company defeated Jill Biden’s favorite football club, the Philadelphia Eagles, in 2023. She went to the game and was raised close to Philadelphia. Overall it’s par the course for the Super Bowl Champions ot make a White House Visit. All in all, it’s not surprising Taylor Swift did not show up. She would have taken away the shine form the deserving guests.

Travis Kelce Booed During Mavericks-Timberwolves While Patrick Mahomes Gets Standing Ovation

Sunday night, the Dallas Mavericks defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves 116-107 to take a 3-0 lead in the Western Conference Finals, and they did it with a couple of NFL stars sitting courtside. Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce both sat courtside during last night’s Western Conference matchup. The Chiefs duo, who have won three Super Bowls in the previous five years, appeared to be enjoying themselves immensely as they watched Kyrie Irving and Luka Dončić show out in crunch time once again for the Mavs. Meanwhile, as Kelce and Mahomes appeared on the Jumbotron, fans at America Airlines Arena enjoyed themselves immensely by booing Taylor Swift’s boyfriend. 

As the spotlight turned to Travis and his teammate Patrick Mahomes, who was seated courtside, the crowd’s reaction was a mix of applause and jeers. Travis, seemingly taken aback but still sporting a grin, was the unexpected focus of attention. When his QB was revealed, the audience reacted much more warmly. There was a lot of applause, and Mahomes got up to hype the crowd. He was surrounded by admirers, and his wife Brittany was by his side. Overall, the crowd did not feel Kelce at all, but they were happy to see the best quarterback in football.

Travis Kelce Booed And Patrick Mahomes Cheered At Mavs Game

Before the game, the Mavs apparently made fun of Kelce on Twitter by saying, “Our guy Pat and @taylorswift13’s boyfriend in the house!” Who knows why the Dallas audience was more welcoming to Pat than to Travis Kelce, but it could have something to do with Mahomes’ being a Texas Boy. The quarterback stood out at Texas Tech. Mahomes has also been a frequent guest at Mavs games and recently picked them to make it to the NBA finals. He is clearly a Mavericks fan. As for Kelce, the hate probably comes from his elevated celebrity status due to his involvement with Taylor Swift.

Also seated with Travis and Pat Mahomes was their new teammate, Hollywood Brown. Brown is the latest target for the superstar quarterback, and he got some bonding time with his team’s two leaders. The Mavs are up 3-0 on the Timberwolves. Patrick Mahomes will more than likely be present in Dallas for Game 4. Overall, we can understand if Travis Kelce doesn’t show up again.

Travis Kelce Defends Harrison Butker After Controversial Speech That Included Remarks About Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs star tight end, finally broke his silence on his teammate Harrison Butker’s contentious commencement address at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas, earlier this month. The speech, which sparked significant controversy, was the topic of discussion on the most recent episode of Kelce’s New Heights podcast, which aired on Friday. Kelce, speaking openly about the issue, echoed the sentiments of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Mahomes had also commented on the speech earlier this week.

Naturally, a lot of people were eager to hear Kelce’s take on the situation. Particularly since Butker brought up the tight end’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, in the divisive conversation with grads. Travis disagrees with “just about any of” the ideas Butker presented throughout the discussion. Nonetheless, he stated that it wouldn’t change his opinion of his close buddy. Kelce said to his brother, Jason, on the podcast, “I’ve known him for seven-plus years probably, eight-plus years, and I cherish him as a teammate.”

Travis Kelce Defends Harrison Butker After Controversial Remarks

Travis Kelce addressed the Harrison Butker controversy, saying, “When it comes down to his views and what he said at Saint Benedict’s commencement speech, those are his. I can’t say I agree with the majority of it or just about any of it outside of just him loving his family and his kids.” He continued, “And I don’t think that I should judge him by his views, especially his religious views, of how to go about life, that’s just not who I am.” Kelce mentioned how Butker has always been wonderful to the friends and family he’s introduced him to.

Kelce went on to remark that his upbringing in Ohio has shaped the way he saw the world. “I grew up in a beautiful upbringing of different social classes, different religions, different races and ethnicities, in Cleveland Heights, and that’s why I love Cleveland Heights for what it was,” he said. Despite knowing how important equality is and growing up around a diverse community, Kelce still defends his teammate. Even though he seems to have completely opposite views. Similar opinions were voiced earlier this week by Patrick Mahomes, who likewise referred to Butker as “a good person.” In a conversation with reporters, Andy Reid also supported the member of the special team. Overall, the Chiefs are standing behind their kicker.

Harrison Butker Called Out For Wild Political Commencement Speech About Masculinity

During Benedictine College’s graduation ceremony, kicker Harrison Butker of the Kansas City Chiefs gave a divisive speech that caused a stir on social media. Speaking at the event on May 11, he decried a number of “diabolical lies told to women,” including surrogacy, IVF, abortion, and President Joe Biden. His speech has been described as fringe and dangerous rhetoric disguised as profound observations. Now Butker is under fire for delivering a sexist, anti-LGBTQIA+ commencement speech that even quoted his teammate Travis Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

During his 20-minute speech on Saturday at Benedictine College’s graduation ceremony, he attacked working women, Pride Month, abortion, and other problems. This caused a quick outrage on social media, and rightfully so. “It is safe to say that over the years, I have gained quite the reputation for speaking my mind,” Butker acknowledged before diving into his speech, where he went after various important topics concerning vulnerable groups and President Biden’s “bad policies and poor leadership.” The speech was instantly discussed and has caused quite a controversy around Butker and the Chiefs.

Harrison Butker Makes Wild Speech

Harrison Butker continued his speech, saying, “Things like abortion, IVF, surrogacy, euthanasia as well as a growing support for degenerate cultural values and media all stem from the pervasiveness of disorder.” Butker bemoaned to graduates of the private Catholic institution in Atchison, Kansas, that LGBT people had a “full month dedicated” to their rights, using Pride Month as an example of “the deadly sins” taught in the church. The athlete then told the female audience members that being a homemaker should be their most important role in life. Butker advised the male graduates of the institution to “fight against the cultural emasculation of men” and “be unapologetic in your masculinity.”

The three-time Super Bowl champion said to the crowd, “As my teammate’s girlfriend says, ‘Familiarity breeds contempt,’” using a line from Swift’s 2022 song “Bejeweled.” Everyone from regular Twitter users to Chiefs fans to Taylor Swift fans and countless others quickly slammed Butker for his wild remarks. Overall, this might cause a problem for the Chiefs. The NFL doesn’t want its players talking politics at all, so if they make a special exception for Butker, then it sends a bad message.

The veteran tight end signed a deal worth $34.25 million, with $17 million fully guaranteed for this season. Additionally, most of the balance will be guaranteed during the 2025 season.

Jason Kelce Set To Join ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown”

The recently retired Jason Kelce has just secured a new gig. The Super Bowl Winning Center and older brother to Suber Bowl Winning Travis Kelce is set to join ESPN. It’s reported that Jason Kelce will be joining ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown show. The show is the preshow for Monday Night Football. Additionally, all the NFL-partnered networks other than Fox Sports at least considered bringing on Kelce as a contributor. Ryan Clark and Marcus Spears are among the other commentators on the show, which is hosted by Scott Van Pelt. Furthermore, according to earlier reports, Robert Griffin III is not anticipated to make a comeback to the pregame show this coming season.

After playing center for the Eagles for 13 years, Kelce, 36, announced his retirement this summer. Kelce, a seven-time Pro Bowler and six-time All-Pro, played a key role in the team’s 2018 Super Bowl victory. Kelce is a beloved figure in Philly, and after the Eagles were eliminated from the playoffs, he could be seen sometimes shirtless, supporting his brother Travis at Chiefs games.

One of the most entertaining athletes around, Kelce has experience dissecting games on his “New Heights” podcast alongside his brother Travis. The sky was the limit for Jason post-football. Since retiring, he has made appearances in the WWE and Wrestlemania. Additionally, even Hollywood wouldn’t seem out of reach. Kelce loves football. Additionally, If you have ever heard him talk about it on his podcast, you will see that he has a high level of game knowledge. All signs point to him being pretty good on TV.

Travis Kelce is probably set to have an even bigger splash after his playing career. Fortunately, both brothers will evidently be in our sports lives for years after they retire. The question is whether Taylor Swift will still be a part of the Kelce experience for that long. Overall, the Kelce brothers are not just set to take over; they already have, and one still competes for Super Bowls. Good luck to Jason on his new gig.
