The couple sat together and chatted throughout the game, even standing up and clapping along with the crowd as they cheered on the teams.
However, the evening wasn't without controversy. Fans quickly took to social media to criticise Swift for sitting next to hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, who is a known supporter of Donald Trump.
Many expressed disappointment, with some questioning her choice of company given the political ties. Gretzky's association with Trump has sparked backlash in both the US and Canada.
Despite the controversy, Swift and Kelce seemed to enjoy the game, with Swift remaining unfazed by the criticism surrounding her seating choice.

Bad Bunny tells fans not to expect Taylor Swift-style tour as he prepares for global stadium run
Bad Bunny is preparing to launch his next global stadium tour—but he's urging fans not to expect a Taylor Swift-style retrospective. In a new interview with Variety, the Puerto Rican star—born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio—emphasized that the tour will focus on his latest album, DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, rather than offering a career-spanning showcase. 'First of all, I'm not Taylor Swift,' he said. 'I want to clarify now so that they don't get so excited: It's not going to be organized that way. It's still very much a tour for DeBÍ, with some older songs sprinkled in.' Produced by Live Nation, the tour kicks off November 21 in the Dominican Republic. He will perform in Costa Rica and Mexico before continuing in January through Colombia and other Latin American countries. In late February, he will head to Brazil and Australia for the first time, followed by a debut in Japan. From May to July, he'll visit European cities including Madrid, Lisbon, Berlin, and Paris. Ahead of the global run, Bad Bunny will also headline a 30-date residency at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot this summer. The concerts are expected to draw approximately 250,000 fans to his home island. Even as he downplays expectations, demand tells a different story. According to figures shared with Billboard by Live Nation, the tour has already sold 2.6 million tickets and is on track to generate hundreds of millions in revenue. He will also become the first Spanish-language artist to perform stadium shows in seven of the countries on his itinerary. The record-breaking numbers confirm Bad Bunny's continued rise as a global force—on his own terms.

Court allows Justin Baldoni to access Blake Lively and Taylor Swift's messages over film dispute
A US federal judge has ruled that actor and director Justin Baldoni is permitted to seek messages exchanged between Blake Lively and Taylor Swift that pertain to the production of the film It Ends With Us. The decision comes as part of an ongoing legal dispute involving Lively's claims of harassment and retaliation. In court, Lively had identified Swift as someone who may have relevant knowledge about events that occurred during the film's development. US District Judge Lewis Liman determined that this connection justifies discovery of relevant communications between the two. In response to the ruling, the court rejected Lively's request for a protective order to block the release of the messages. Judge Liman wrote that the messages are 'reasonably tailored to discover information that would prove or disprove Lively's harassment and retaliation claims.' However, the ruling limits the scope of the messages to those directly relating to the film or the ongoing lawsuit. The case stems in part from Lively's objections to script changes, particularly a rooftop scene. According to Baldoni, he was invited to Lively's New York home in 2023 to discuss the changes and was surprised to find both Ryan Reynolds and Taylor Swift present. He alleges both encouraged him to accept Lively's version of the scene. As discovery progresses, Lively's team has agreed to hand over all other requested materials, except for the Swift messages. That refusal led to the current dispute and court order.

Bluebird Cafe denies Olivia Rodrigo requested Taylor Swift photos be removed
The Bluebird Cafe has addressed speculation that Olivia Rodrigo's team asked the venue to remove images of Taylor Swift ahead of Rodrigo's performance there in 2023. In a video statement posted to X on June 18, Bluebird Cafe general manager and COO Erica Nichols denied the rumor, clarifying that the photos were taken down due to copyright issues during filming. 'Olivia's people did not ask us to remove an image of Taylor Swift,' Nichols said. 'We are required legally to remove copyrighted images for broadcast.' The clarification came after a resurfaced video showed a Bluebird employee claiming the cafe 'vowed to remove any visible signs of Taylor Swift' before Rodrigo performed. Nichols said the employee 'spoke carelessly and haphazardly,' and the photo was removed purely for legal reasons. Nichols emphasized that the venue continues to support both artists equally. 'Taylor is a super friend of the Bluebird… and we were honored to have Olivia here,' she said. The rumor fueled fan theories of a feud between Rodrigo and Swift, stemming from songwriting credit controversies on Rodrigo's tracks 'Deja Vu' and '1 Step Forward, 3 Steps Back,' which interpolated Swift's music. Rodrigo has repeatedly denied any rift, telling Rolling Stone in 2023: 'I don't have beef with anyone.' The manager concluded by urging fans not to read into the false narrative, reiterating that the venue removed multiple images—not just Swift's—as standard filming procedure.
