Karma is a Super Bowl ring.
Taylor Swift watched from the suite as Travis Kelce and the Chiefs became back-to-back Super Bowl champions with a 25-22 overtime win against the 49ers. It’s the tight end’s third of his career, all coming in the last five seasons.
The singer made it to Las Vegas just a day after performing four concerts in Tokyo, and it was worth the hustle. It was a game to remember, from a total score of 13 at halftime to the comeback victory. And Swift had a night of her own. She was joined in the box by Blake Lively, Ice Spice, Lana Del Rey and even Paul McCartney.
Her shining legacy of the night came in the second quarter when she made the Allegiant Stadium Jumbotron for chugging a beer. Hours later, she joined Kelce on the field as he screamed "Viva Las Vegas" in celebration of another ring. The two hugged it out for the final time this season.
Just months after Swift was called a curse for the Chiefs’ struggles in the second half of the season, she proved she wasn’t a distraction, even with beer chugging. What a way to end Swift’s 13th game of the season and her first as a Chiefs fan.

Swift brought at least a couple of friends to nearly every Chiefs game she attended this season. Her guests included Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Cara Delevingne and Keleigh Teller. While we don't know every friend who will be in Las Vegas, a few have already confirmed their attendance.
Following the Chiefs' win over the Ravens in the AFC championship, Teller confirmed she and her husband Miles will be at the Super Bowl via a TikTok comment.
