00:00The football season has returned with a bang, and it's not just because the Kansas City
00:04Chiefs have already clinched their first win. All eyes were on Taylor Swift, who got more
00:09tongue-swagging than the players thanks to her outfit. The pop icon has had a gorgeous
00:14style transformation over the years, and for this occasion, she stepped out in a denim
00:19two-piece featuring a corset top and matching shorts complemented by thigh-high Bordeaux
00:23red boots from designer Giuseppe Zanotti. While the outfit looked like a coordinated
00:28set, it was actually a stunning mix of separate pieces, with the corset top from Versace.
00:34But what truly made this ensemble a home run were the boots, and how effortlessly Swift
00:38strutted her stuff in those dangerously high heels.
00:42Unfortunately, since the Shake It Off hitmaker's look stole the spotlight, inevitably generating
00:47more buzz than the game itself, a number of people weren't exactly thrilled. Users on
00:52X, formerly known as Twitter, criticized her attire as shameful for a family-friendly event,
00:57even though there was nothing inappropriate about it. However, most commenters were enthralled
01:01by what was arguably one of Swift's best outfits to date. One user even hilariously wondered
01:07aloud,
01:08"...what witchcraft is responsible for her looking like this because there's just no
01:11other explanation?"
01:13Thanks to the nasty Donald Trump scandal involving both Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes, fans
01:18were laser-focused on them during the Chiefs game. If you missed it, Mahomes, Swift's wag
01:23bestie, liked a photo of Trump's divisive manifesto on Instagram. This is a big deal
01:28given the well-established political feud between Trump and Swift. After the backlash
01:33to Mahomes and her confusing response to it, Trump himself gave her a shout-out on Truth
01:37Social. Consequently, fans were curious about how the two women would interact at the game.
01:43To no one's surprise, the Bad Blood hitmaker seemed to avoid Mahomes like the plague throughout
01:47the night.
01:49Gone were the shared photos and secret handshakes. Instead, they were seated far apart and not
01:53even photographed together.
01:55"...my life is really, really busy and really complicated and it becomes kind of too chaotic
02:02when I involve someone else in it."
02:04Adding to the speculation, ex-users suggested that Swift's choice to wear all blue was a
02:08subtle signal of her Democratic loyalties. However, this theory isn't watertight given
02:13that her boots were a shade of red. A clear indicator of the singer's political leanings
02:18is the fact that her music was played at the Democratic National Convention, which
02:22likely happened with Swift's approval. But given the recently foiled bombing plot at
02:27her Vienna concert, sadly, she might feel safer keeping her political views quiet, at
02:31least for the time being.
02:34And it's not like Swift doesn't have plenty of things to focus on besides her possible
02:37falling out with Brittany Mahomes. Her Heiress tour still has a few months left on the docket,
02:43and she's currently fending off baseless rumors that she and Travis Kelce have an actual breakup
02:47contract for when their relationship supposedly needs to come to a close. And considering
02:52how publicly she's supported her longtime besties Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively's new
02:56films, she might just be looking to hone in on her other, non-wag friendships.
03:01Either way, it's clear that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will be dominating headlines
03:06for at least one more NFL season.
