It’s no secret that Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce is a huge fan of pop sensation Taylor Swift. Kelce has been seen rocking out at her concerts, singing along to her lyrics, and even sporting her merchandise during press conferences. But, it seems like Kelce might have some competition when it comes to being the biggest Swiftie in the sports world.
It’s no surprise that Swift has captured the hearts of many with her catchy tunes, relatable lyrics, and fun-loving personality. And it seems like she has worked her magic on yet another pro athlete – Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster.
Recently, Smith-Schuster shared a photo on social media of himself wearing a Taylor Swift shirt with the caption, “I shouldn’t be allowed at home by myself… #TS7”. Fans were quick to notice the post and it caused quite a stir online, with many wondering if the NFL star was now also a fan of T-swift.
Smith-Schuster’s love for Swift didn’t stop there though. He also made an appearance at the superstar’s Reputation Tour in Pittsburgh, where he got to meet and take a photo with her backstage. The wide receiver even shared the photo on his Instagram with the caption, “It was an honor to meet Taylor Swift, she’s been one of my favorite artists for a long time now 🐍🐍🐍 #ReputationTour”. It’s safe to say that Smith-Schuster’s fan status has been officially confirmed.
But what drew Smith-Schuster to become a Taylor Swift fan? Well, it seems like their shared love for gaming is what brought them together. The wide receiver often posts about his love for video games on his social media, and Swift has also been known to be a gamer herself. In fact, she has even expressed her love for Fortnite, a popular video game, multiple times on her social media. It’s clear that their mutual interests have led to Smith-Schuster becoming a Swiftie.
With Kelce and Smith-Schuster both being avid fans of Taylor Swift, it makes us wonder if there’s a friendly competition between the two athletes. Who knows, maybe they’ll both get to meet their idol together one day and showcase their love for her. It’s also worth mentioning that the two teams – the Chiefs and Steelers – are in the same division, adding a fun rivalry to the mix.
Overall, it’s great to see pro athletes embracing their love for music and artists like Taylor Swift. It just goes to show that no matter how different our professions or interests may seem, music has a way of bringing people together. And with Smith-Schuster joining the ranks of Taylor Swift fans, it seems like she has yet another athlete smitten with her. Who knows, maybe she’ll write a song about their fandom in the future.
So, while Travis Kelce might have some competition in the form of JuJu Smith-Schuster, one thing is for sure – Taylor Swift has fans from all walks of life and will continue to win over hearts with her music for years to come. And as for Kelce and Smith-Schuster, perhaps they can team up and show their love for Taylor Swift together in the future. After all, the more Swifties, the merrier!
