Heads turn when famous people from different sectors interact, so it should come as no surprise that music icon Taylor Swift and basketball star Caitlin Clark got attention when they attended the Chiefs’ 2025 divisional game together.
The pair sat in the same box and watched Swift’s boyfriend Travis Kelce take down the Texans. Kansas City advanced to its seventh consecutive AFC championship, but the story of the game was that Clark and Swift were not only in the same box for the game but sitting side-by-side.
Swift is accustomed to having celebrities in her box at Arrowhead Stadium. She initially attended a game with Mama Kelce and then began attending all on her own. Swift has shared a suite with Brittany Mahomes, Blake Lively, Jason and Kylie Kelce, and now Clark.
The Sporting News takes a closer look at the friendship between Swift and Clark.

Are Taylor Swift and Caitlin Clark friends?
Clark, like many of us, has appreciated Swift and her greatness from afar.
Clark was the first to make a move, as it were, as she attended Swift’s Eras Tour show in 2023. When Swift attended her first Chiefs game in September 2023, Clark congratulated her on picking a winning team.
Taylor Swift welcome to the good side #chiefskingdom

On Christmas Day in 2023, both Clark and Swift attended a game in Kansas City. They didn’t go to this game together, with Clark adding that Swift “was a couple suites away from me” and is “a couple tiers above my level.”

Clark attended the Eras Tour again in November of 2024. Her attending went viral, not for her post, but for a comment on an Instagram post from the Fever. Indiana was hyping her up, but Clark simply replied, “Busy at eras tour thanks for tag tho.” After the tour, she revealed that Swift invited her to attend a Chiefs game and that Swift and Kelce wanted to go to a Fever game.
