Lance Bass made sure that no one at the Cowboys-Chargers game on Monday (Oct. 16) got their expectations too high. After SoFi Stadium alerted the crowd that a star was in the midst and showed the *NSYNC band member on its jumbotrons, Bass held up a sign clarifying that he wasn’t one of the NFL‘s most famous recent guests: Taylor Swift.
“Not Taylor Swift,” read Bass’ handwritten sign, which he held up to the cameras as he waved to the thousands of fans in attendance.
The singer shared a video of the moment on Instagram, showing how SoFi played his band’s iconic song “Bye Bye Bye” over the speakers. “In case anyone was confused,” he captioned the post. “#LookWhatYouMadeMeDo #GoChargers ! #NotTaylorSwift #MNF”
Bass’ sign poked fun at the pop culture craze surrounding Swift’s romance with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, with whom she was photographed twice holding hands over the weekend in New York City. The “Anti-Hero” singer has shown up to three of Kelce’s games so far, and is often shown by NFL cameras sharing a box suite with the athlete’s mom, Donna Kelce.
And while there are millions of Swifties who would love to see the pop star’s face appear on jumbotrons at any given NFL game, many of Bass’ fans assured him that they’d be just as excited to see him in the stands. “Honestly I would be more excited at seeing Lance Bass then Taylor swift 🤣” commented one fan.
“Lance…you’re the Taylor Swift of 20 years ago,” added another.
In fact, Swift just might be one of those fans. In September, she gushed over her love for *NSYNC at the VMAs after the band reunited onstage to present her with an award. “I had your dolls,” the “Karma” musician told the guys. “Like, are you doing something? What’s going to happen now … They’re going to do something and I need to know what it is!”
Soon after the awards show, Bass, Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Chris Kirkpatrick and Joey Fatone announced plans to release their first full-band song in 20 years. “Better Place” arrived Sept. 29 as part of the soundtrack for Trolls Band Together, which aptly focuses on a boy band reunion.

Brittany Mahomes is living every Swiftie’s dream. At the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Denver Broncos Thursday (Oct. 12), Taylor Swift was spotted wrapping the 28-year-old former soccer player in a big hug as the two cheered on their Chiefs boys: Brittany’s husband, quarterback Patrick Mahomes, and Swift’s rumored boyfriend, tight end Travis Kelce.

Looks like Travis Kelce‘s niece is a fan of Taylor Swift. In a recent TikTok, the star’s sister-in-law Kylie Kelce revealed that her 4-year-old daughter, Wyatt, is a total Swiftie. And much like the others in the fandom, the little girl is taking a bigger interest in the NFL following her uncle’s rumored romance with the pop superstar
In the adorable video, Wyatt points out players on a screen and repeatedly asks her mom, “Who is that? Who is that?” Kylie shares the 4-year-old — along with 3-year-old Elliotte and 7-month-old Bennett — with Travis’ older brother, Eagles center Jason Kelce.
“Just another swiftie tryna learn football, or a kid tryna avoid a nap. Who knows?” Kylie captioned the Monday (Oct. 9) post, adding, “#GoBirds.”
The Eagles’ official account dropped by the comment section to cheer her on. “Good job Wyatt! 👏👏👏,” wrote the team, which just so happens to be Swift’s hometown favorite.
Kylie’s video marks a sweet addition to the “Tayvis” lore, a rumored love story that’s been unfolding in front of Swifties and NFL fans alike in recent weeks. The Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end first professed his crush on the “Anti-Hero” singer earlier this year, and a couple months later, she was spotted cheering him on at two of his games.
Neither Swift nor Travis have confirmed whether they’re dating, but the Chiefs star did comment last week about how his life has changed following pop culture’s heightened attention on him. “We’re learning with the paparazzi taking photos from all over the place,” he said during a Friday (Oct. 6) press conference.
“At the same time, you know, it comes with it,” Travis continued. “You’ve got a lot of people that care about Taylor, and for good reason. You’ve just got to keep living and learning and enjoying the moments.”
The Kelce brothers’ mom, Donna Kelce, also recently weighed in on the Swift mania, a media blitz she’s been a key player in after cameras showed her looking cozy with the pop star at the Chiefs-Bears game in September. “It’s just very surreal,” she told the Got It From My Momma podcast last week. “I feel like I’m in an alternate universe. It’s not the one I grew up in, for sure. So it’s very, very fun, it’s exciting, but also taxing.”

Taylor Swift has all but stolen the spotlight this season, and the NFL isn’t sorry. Following complaints from football fans that the league is oversaturating its coverage with news about the “Anti-Hero” pop star’s recent attendance at Chiefs games — as well as Travis Kelce‘s own comment that they’re “overdoing it” — a representative for […]
Travis Kelce is well aware that the NFL‘s coverage surrounding his rumored romance with Taylor Swift might be pushing the limits. But he’s definitely not complaining, either.
On the latest episode of his New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, Travis conceded that the pro league’s role in hyping up his rumored relationship with Swift — from Swift-themed social media posts to commercials, not to mention the many questions and segments about the singer in sports media in recent weeks — is getting to be a little too much. “I think everybody is just overwhelmed,” he said on the Wednesday (Oct. 4) episode.
“They’re overdoing it a little bit, for sure,” he added. “Especially my situation. I think they’re just trying to have fun with it.”
The “situation” in question started months ago, when the Kansas City tight end first revealed on New Heights that he had a crush on Swift and had tried unsuccessfully to slip her his phone number via a friendship bracelet at an Eras Tour show. Things kicked into high gear in September when the “Anti-Hero” singer attended the Chiefs-Bears game at Arrowhead Stadium and was seen leaving the event with Travis.
Over the weekend, she was spotted again at a Chiefs game, this time at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. She cheered Travis on from a box suite filled with many of her friends, including Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Sophie Turner and Brittany Mahomes — a spectacle NFL production made sure to capture on camera multiple times throughout the game.
“Take away your feelings for Taylor,” Jason said of Travis on their podcast. “What is your honest opinion on how the NFL is treating celebrities at the games?”
“I think it brings a little more to the atmosphere, it brings a little bit more to what you’re watching,” the younger Kelce responded. “But at the same time, I think …”
“They’re overdoing it,” Jason chimed in, with Travis agreeing.
Even so, #87 isn’t feeling too shabby about how things have played out with Ms. Swift. In an interview with the Chasin’ It with Trey Wingo and Chase Daniel that aired Tuesday (Oct. 3), Travis said he had “no idea” how much attention his pursuit of the pop star would garner. “I had no idea, man,” he admitted. “I had no idea. You can’t tell me that anybody else did either, but I can’t be mad at how it’s all played out. I’ll say that.”

Travis Kelce may have scored big with Taylor Swift, his rumored love interest, but he’s making sure to give credit to a couple of female sports commentators who might have helped him win her over.

A key part of Taylor Swift’s image during the original 1989 album campaign involved her “squad” of famous friends, so it’s only right that she bring that back as she gears up for the release of 1989 (Taylor’s Version) — albeit in a configuration that more closely reflects where she’s at in her life right […]
