Taylor Swift Chooses Chiefs Game Over Political Rally Ahead of Election Day
Taylor Swift Attends Football Game Instead of Rally Before Election Day
Taylor Swift opted for football over a political event on the eve of Election Day in Pennsylvania as she appeared at Arrowhead Stadium to watch the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. Her decision drew attention from fans and online followers as videos of Swift surfaced on social media, putting to rest rumors that she would attend a rally supporting her chosen candidate.
Swift Cheers for Chiefs Instead of Joining Election Campaign
Dressed in a black Chiefs jacket, Swift was escorted to her seat, showing her support for the team. Her absence from the election campaign events sparked speculation, especially since other prominent figures like Lady Gaga, Christina Aguilera, Usher, Eminem, and Beyoncé have actively campaigned for the female Vice Presidential candidate.
Although Swift has publicly endorsed the candidate, she chose to watch her star boyfriend play rather than participate in political activities. Swift’s appearance at the primetime NFL game seemed planned, as her schedule was free for the evening.
