There are two prime NFL games this weekend, Dolphins-Bills at 1PM and Chiefs-Jets at 8:20PM. As my posting today is on that intriguing romance, I'll just focus on that second game.
- She is filling MetLife Stadium, for Swift is scheduled to again be in the Chief's suite box, and prices have increased. Once at $168/seat, resale prices have jumped 25% each day and and as of Wednesday, was up to $245.
Even though this will be an away game, you can expect a lot of red #87 jerseys, as Travis Kelce's uniform sales went up by 400%.- The proximity is convenient this time, for she lives in Manhattan.
You might say that Taylor Swift and Don Knotts are exact opposites. She is a very much alive 33-year old, and Knotts, who I feature this week, passed away in 2006. He is the ultimate wimp, and she is at the top of her entertainment game.
Who really is Taylor Swift?
- Born in 1989 in Reading, Pennsylvania, she was named after singer-songwriter James Taylor.
- Here is one of her high school photos.
- Started professionally at the age 14 as a country singer.
- First #1 hit was We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together in 2012 when she was 16. She also co-wrote that song.
Now, she just topped Maroon 5, Rihanna and Katy Perry with her 12th #1 hit, Cruel Summer, on Billboard's Pop Airplay chart.- Has sold over 200 million records and is the most-streamed female artist on Spotify.
- Won 12 Grammy Awards.
- Has 101 Guinness World Records.
- Is an advocate for women's empowerment.
Known as a music chameleon, as she ventures into various genres.- Possesses a mezzo-soprano vocal range with a soft timbre.
- Has been referred to as one of the greatest songwriters of all time.
- Her tours shows her showmanship and stage presence.
- Is reluctant to publicly discuss her personal life.
Taylor might have gotten married to Joe Alwyn, but most probably not.- Owns three cats, and Benson is the third richest pet animal in the world, with a net worth of just about $100 million.
- She is worth $740 million.
Okay, okay, what about Travis Kelce.
- Born in 1989 in Westlake, Ohio, and is around two months older than Swift, both 33-years old.
- Both he and his brother Jason, who plays for the Philadelphia Eagles, went to the University of Cincinnati.
- One of the greatest NFL tight ends of all time, with the Kansas City Chief. Was a third round pick by the Chiefs, and has been with them for a decade.
- Has a popular podcast with Jason on the NFL.
- Never married.
Swift's Eras Tour , her sixth, began on 17 March 2023 in Glendale, Arizona, and will conclude on 24 November 2024 in Toronto, Canada. There is a break from August 26 in Mexico City to November 9 in Buenos Aires. Will be Tokyo and Australia in February 2024, then to Singapore and all of Europe in May to August in Europe, return to Miami in October. Tickets? Forget it, but go to for resale on StubHub and Vivid Seat, meaning a much higher cost/seat.
But not to particularly worry, for her Eras Tour film will open on October 13 in 100 countries. No Rotten Tomatoes ratings yet.
But on to the budding Swift-Kelce relationship. Even Donald Trump has an opinion: “I wish the best for both of them. I hope they enjoy their life, maybe together, maybe not — most likely not,” Trump said. Watch Steve Kornacki of NBC with the stats.
