Taylor Swift wows on Grammys red carpet in stunning dress with special nod to boyfriend Travis Kelce before Super Bowl
TAYLOR Swift has turned up to the Grammys in a red hot look that dazzled fans – and the outfit gives a special nod to boyfriend Travis Kelce.
The NFL player touched down in New Orleans on Sunday evening and won’t be in attendance with his pop icon girlfriend as she’s up for six nominations for the critically acclaimed album, The Tortured Poet’s Department.
Taylor, 35, turned up to the Grammys in her signature red color however – the outfit choice is presumably a nod to her Kansas City Chiefs star boyfriend.
In one week, Travis will be looking to win his third consecutive Super Bowl ring with the Kansas City Chiefs – who famously rock the same shed of red for their uniforms.
She wore a sparkling short dress that draped over one of her shoulders with matching red heels and a body chain that hung down her thigh that had a “T” on it – either a shoutout to her man or a nod to her own name.
The custom gown was made especially for the songwriter by Vivienne Westwood.
She wore fringe earrings, rings and kept her curly hair down as she strutted down the carpet with an array of confident poses.
The four-time Album of the Year winner completed the look with her signature red lip.
Taylor’s body chain got a loud reaction from fans, as the “T” on her upper thigh is a near reference to one of her TTPD lyrics.
In Guilty As Sin, she sings: “What if he’s written ‘mine’ on my upper thigh?” – which fans say has left them “speechless.”
“I have no words, she looks more beautiful, healthy and confident than ever,” a fan gushed.
Another exclaimed: “HOLY S**T SHE HAS NEVER LOOKED HOTTER!!!!!!”
“This is not at all how I thought she’d dress tonight but I am so here for it! Sexy and classy,” a third gushed.
“I just know Travis is crying right now looking at these photos thousands of miles away,” a fourth joked.
Taylor is up for six awards tonight for her 2024 record, The Tortured Poet’s Department – including the biggest prize of the night, Album of the Year.
If she were to take home the trophy tonight, it would mark back-to-back wins in that category as she also won last year for her pop album Midnights.
Though Taylor has a big night ahead of her, her famous beau won’t be by her side as he gets ready for Super Bowl Sunday on February 8th.
Earlier today, Travis, 35, was spotted exiting the Chiefs team plane outside of New Orleans where Patrick Mahomes & Co will be preparing to battle the Philadelphia Eagles next week.
The couple were spotted together on the field at Arrowhead Stadium after the Chiefs defeated the Buffalo Bills in the playoffs to secure their spot in the Super Bowl.
