Taylor Swift Chooses Chiefs Game Over Victoria’s Secret Show

The pop icon bypassed the 2026 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, opting instead to travel to Kansas City for her husband Travis Kelce’s home game. Although she was already in Los Angeles for the Academy Museum Gala, fans anticipated her presence at the fashion event held on October 18, 2026, in California. Instead, she flew to support the Chiefs during their matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Chiefs Game Attendance Details

Harper’s Bazaar reported that Swift wore a fitted, long-sleeved turtleneck sweater in Chiefs red. She paired this top with black pants, keeping her hair down and framing her face with signature bangs. The singer completed the ensemble with iconic red lipstick and was observed holding a drink while cheering for her partner.

Este Haim, Caitlin Clark, and Donna Kelce joined Swift at the stadium. This attendance marks a departure from expectations, given her prior history with the fashion show. Her last appearance at the event occurred in 2014, when she performed “Blank Space” and “Style” at Earls Court in London, England.

Past Fashion Show Appearances

Swift also attended the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in 2013. During both her 2013 and 2014 appearances, she shared the stage with models Karlie Kloss, Lily Aldridge, and Cara Delevingne. These previous visits established her as a recurring figure at the industry’s major annual gathering.

Fans remain hopeful that Swift will participate in future editions of the show. Despite missing the 2026 iteration, supporters believe her potential return could enhance the star-studded nature of upcoming events. The decision to prioritize the football game over the gala-adjacent fashion show highlights her current focus on supporting Kelce’s team.
