Here's why Travis Kelce won't join Taylor Swift for Grammys 2025

Taylor Swift is nominated for six Grammy awards this year and could make history with a record-breaking fifth Album of the Year win.

Travis Kelce will not be walking the red carpet at the 2025 Grammys with Taylor Swift, despite fans’ hopes for a high-profile appearance together. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has a different priority: preparing for the Super Bowl. With the NFL championship just a week after music's biggest night, Swift will be attending the awards show alone.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has practice leading up to the big game, which takes place in New Orleans a week after the Los Angeles Grammys. While Kelce will be focused on football, his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, will be at the Superdome to support him and the Chiefs against the Philadelphia Eagles. This isn't the first time Kelce has missed the Grammys for the Super Bowl; he also missed the 2024 show.

Despite missing the Grammys, Kelce had nothing but admiration for Swift during a pre-game press conference. “She’s incredible—she’s making history in her own right,” he said enthusiastically. “I told her I need to do my part and bring home a trophy, too.”

He went on to acknowledge Swift’s dedicated fan base, expressing how exciting it has been to unite Swifties and Chiefs Kingdom. True to his word, Kelce delivered on the field, leading the Chiefs to a 25-22 victory over the San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas last year.
