  • Taylor Swift attended Arrowhead suite, greeted guests and hugged Ed Kelce.
  • She wore a black V-neck Chiefs jersey with the number 13 and flashed ring.
  • GMA teased an exclusive Taylor Swift announcement after record-breaking album debut.

Chiefs fans haven’t seen much of Taylor Swift at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium this season, at least not when she wasn’t arriving behind a bullet-resistant barrier.

But it’s not like she hasn’t been kinda busy with the release of her new monster album, “The Lifestyle of a Showgirl.”

Finally, on Sunday, the “Sunday Night Football” cameras caught first sight of Swift in an Arrowhead suite. She was hugging her future father-in-law, Ed Kelce, and greeting WNBA star Caitlin Clark. Other videos showed her talking to other guests in the suite.

It took happy Swifties all of a few seconds to flood social media.

So the biggest question: Was she dressed like a showgirl?

No feathers or sequins. Not even orange, the color of her new era.

At first glance, it appeared she wore a black, V-neck Chiefs jersey, possibly custom, with her favorite number, 13, on it. Without Swift walking one of the pre-game fashion parades fans enjoyed last season, it was difficult to see her fit.

But Sarah Chapelle, keeper of Taylor Swift Styled on Instagram, guessed that Swift wore a custom take on a Ganni dress from the Danish ready-to-wear label’s Spring 2025 runway.

And in a fortuitous angle, Swift flashed her engagement ring towards the cameras as she hugged Papa Kelce.

As big as Swift’s appearance in Kansas City was, fans were more excited for Monday morning, when there is some kind of big reveal coming.

Before the game, “Good Morning America” teased an “exclusive Taylor Swift announcement” coming Monday.

The post included a clip from Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia” video. The voiceover said, “She’s at it again. Taylor Swift shattering records with the biggest album debut in history with over four million units. And now tomorrow morning, GMA has a huge new exclusive announcement on Taylor. So what’s next for her?”

It’s unclear whether Swift herself will appear.
