Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs’ star tight end, sent Taylor Swift’s fanbase into a frenzy on Saturday after stepping out in an outfit that appeared to match the aesthetic of Swift’s latest album, The Tortured Poet’s Department.

The 34-year-old NFL star donned a stylish gray, black, and white shirt at his “Kelce Car Jam” charity event, fueling excitement among fans speculating about the couple’s shared love for fashion and each other.

Kelce, who turned 35 that day, was surrounded by family, including his brother Jason Kelce, sister-in-law Kylie, and their parents Ed and Donna Kelce. The event, which also featured Swift, was a highlight of the NFL star’s birthday celebrations.

The “Kelce Car Jam,” an annual event now in its second year, was hosted by the brothers and showcased the muscle and luxury cars of Travis and his car-enthusiast friends.

Among the sleek vehicles, fans were hoping to catch a glimpse of Travis’s 1970 Chevy Chevelle, a timeless classic that holds sentimental value. The car made headlines last October when Kelce was seen driving Swift home in it after a game, sparking widespread media attention about their blossoming relationship.

Proceeds from the charity event and the accompanying dinner will go to Kelce’s 87 & Running Foundation, which raises money for underprivileged children in Kansas City and his hometown of Cleveland. Kelce’s birthday bash follows a week of rumors that Swift, 34, might be renting out a popular Kansas City barbecue joint for a private celebration, though her movements were kept tightly under wraps amid increased security following an incident at her Vienna concert in August.

Although Swift was not in attendance at the Chiefs’ 17-10 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers the previous weekend, sources close to the couple insist that her absence isn’t a sign of cooling relations between the two. With Swift’s busy schedule and Kelce’s demanding NFL season, the couple has reportedly planned for Swift to attend mostly home games at Arrowhead Stadium.

The couple has also found solace in quiet moments at Kelce’s luxurious $6 million home in the Kansas City suburbs, which he purchased last year. Nestled in a gated community with manicured grounds, the house provides the perfect hideaway for the couple to enjoy casual dates, intimate dinner parties, and cozy movie nights—far from the public eye.

Fans are eager to see whether Swift will make an appearance at Monday night’s game against the New Orleans Saints, where Kelce and the Chiefs look to improve to a 5-0 record in the AFC West. Regardless of her attendance, the NFL star’s relationship with Swift continues to captivate both football fans and the Swiftie community, bringing together the worlds of sports and music in a way that only this power couple can.
