The Chiefs’ cutest little groupie is 12 years old, wears designer clothing, has been to Paris Fashion Week, has more than 3 million followers on social media and is managed by her parents.
Her name is Taylen Biggs. And she popped up on yet another Chiefs red carpet Sunday evening at Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, where she posed for photos and a selfie with Travis Kelce when no media were allowed to talk to him.
That’s the kind of access that recently made the South Florida native one of Time magazine’s Top 100 content creators for 2025.
In Chiefs Kingdom, she’s the other Tay Tay.
Taylen, based in Miami, has become known for her celebrity interviews, some of them exclusive. She travels the world to red carpet events at movie premieres and awards shows, where her young age, poise and well-researched questions earn special access.
She’s gone viral with several of her interviews, including Selena Gomez (19 million views), “Wicked” stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo (13 million) and “Emily in Paris” star Lily Collins (11 million).
The pre-teen has appeared on four Chiefs red carpets since 2023, including at Sunday’s screening of the ESPN docuseries “The Kingdom,” where she posed with Kelce, Patrick Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid.
She made her acting debut last year in Hallmark’s “Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story,” cementing a special relationship with Kansas City’s Super Bowl winners.
“At just 12 years old, Taylen Biggs has a resume some seasoned entertainment reporters would envy, having interviewed stars like Dwayne Johnson, Kris Jenner, Selena Gomez, and Ariana Grande,” Time says.
“Known for her standout fashion sense and on-camera poise, the South Florida native has become a fixture on red carpets and at fashion weeks in New York and Paris.”
Taylen has been in front of cameras since she was a baby, appearing in a photo shoot for Kardashian kids’ clothing when she was 18 months old. When she was 3 she walked a runway for Sherri Hill, a popular prom dress designer, at New York Fashion Week.
During the pandemic she began creating videos reviewing celebrity red-carpet looks, which led to an invitation to be the official backstage host for New York Fashion Week giving her in-person access to celebrities.
Her parents manage her social media accounts, which showcase photos of her with A-listers, including Rihanna, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez, Jack Black and Snoop Dogg. She recently hosted the premiere of “Freakier Friday,” starring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis.
She interviewed Lohan in a sit-down as Elle magazine’s “summer intern.”
Taylen also has brand collaborations with several major companies, including Disney, Walmart, MTV, Netflix and Nike. On one Chiefs red carpet she and Reid compared their Nikes.
She travels with an entourage — a camera man and her “daddyguard,” AKA her father, Josh Biggs, who worked full-time in construction before he became his daughter’s “shadow” when she hit it big.
On the Kansas City red carpet for the Hallmark movie premiere last year, Taylen told People that she was a Chiefs fan before Taylor Swift began dating Kelce. “I’m a hardcore Chiefs fan,” she said.
She’s become a favorite of the Hunt family. She calls the daughters of Chiefs CEO and co-owner Clark Hunt “my girls,” and the affection is mutual.
She’s been to back-to-back Super Bowl ring ceremonies with the Chiefs — in 2023 at Union Station and last year at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. At her first appearance she gave Mahomes and Reid friendship bracelets on the red carpet.
Last year she also modeled at the annual Chiefs Style Lounge.
On Sunday she posted a selfie of herself with Kelce from the event at the Kauffman Center and wrote of the first time she met him, wondering if she had somehow missed some “news” that night.
“2 years ago I met @killatrav possibly one of the nicest guys I have ever met and I was so nervous on the @chiefs ring ceremony carpet but he made me feel like I was part of the family,” she wrote on Instagram.
“He knew my name Tay (around the same time he met @taylorswift) and I asked him to describe his style in 3 words ... he said ‘Fearless’ ... I should have gotten the hint ...”
Earlier this year at the Grammys, Tay Tay and Tay Tay finally got to meet.
