Taylor Swift and Patrick Mahomes: A Dynamic Duo
There’s more than one Kansas City Chiefs superstar singing the praises of Taylor Swift. In a recent video shared via X on Tuesday, February 5, Patrick Mahomes, the quarterback for the Chiefs, expressed his admiration for Travis Kelce’s famous girlfriend.
During a Chiefs press conference, Mahomes was asked by a reporter whether he would prefer to have his scoring ability, Taylor Swift’s singing ability, or Steph Curry’s shooting ability. Without hesitation, Mahomes chose Taylor Swift’s singing ability, stating, “it’s not even close.” When further questioned about his own athletic abilities, Mahomes acknowledged his arm strength but humbly admitted that he does not inspire millions of people like Swift does.
The conversation then turned to Steph Curry, known as one of the greatest shooters of all time. Mahomes praised Curry but maintained that Taylor Swift holds a special place in his heart. These candid comments showcase Mahomes’ admiration for Swift both as a musician and as a person.
This isn’t the first time Mahomes has spoken highly of Swift. In a TIME 100 Most Influential People profile, Mahomes described Swift as the most down-to-earth person he has met in his career. Their friendship has grown stronger over the past 18 months, with Swift even attending Chiefs games with Mahomes and his family.
Swift, who began dating Kelce in the summer of 2023, has integrated seamlessly into Mahomes’ life, forming a close bond with both Patrick and his wife, Brittany Mahomes. The couples have been spotted together at various events, including the US Open and a visit to Swift’s Rhode Island mansion alongside other celebrities like Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and Bradley Cooper.
As the Super Bowl approaches, Mahomes jokes about Swift potentially performing at the halftime show, expressing his hope that Kelce will continue playing and leading the Chiefs to the big game. Regardless of what the future holds, one thing is clear – the friendship between Taylor Swift and Patrick Mahomes is a true testament to the power of mutual respect and admiration in the world of entertainment and sports.
