Pop megastar Taylor Swift travelled to New Jersey on Sunday (Oct 1) night to watch Travis Kelce and his Kansas City Chiefs take on the New York Jets, as rumours about the pair’s relationship send the National Football League’s (NFL) ticket sales and television viewership soaring.

NBC’s cameras showed Swift in a luxury box with several other celebrities, including Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman and Blake Lively. As the Chiefs scored the first touchdown of the game – running back Isaiah Pacheco, not Kelce, crossed the goal line – Swift was seen celebrating in the suite.
