TAYLOR AND TRAVIS HAVE NFL PLANS

Remember where you read this, because it won’t happen until Travis Kelce retires from professional football. My well placed source reveals that Travis’ long term plan is to play for the Kansas City Chiefs a few more years and then, of course, focus on a career in Hollywood. But that’s only half the story. Travis’s dream is to become a part owner of an NFL team and since his expected future-wife, Taylor Swift, is a multi-billionaire, they’ve already agreed to make that goal a part of their future. As my source puts it, Taylor’s 10-year plan is to get married, have a few kids and then retire from performing, so co-owning an NFL team with her husband fits perfectly into her plan.

WHO REALLY PAID FOR TRAVIS KELCE’S MILLION DOLLAR SUPER BOWL SUITE?

Gossip update!  TMZ just revealed that Travis Kelce plopped down approximately A MILLION DOLLARS for a SUITE at the Super Bowl for his family, Taylor Swift,  and her friends and family. (See link below) While it’s true, Taylor IS attending the big game, it wasn’t exactly Travis who paid for the suite. Our NFL insider reveals that league, team, stadium owners and network all did some creative accounting to cover the cost of the suite. The logistics are a bit complicated but no one wanted to give the impression that Taylor got the suite for free in exchange for attending the game. All parties involved didn’t want to see THAT precedent for fear that OTHER celebrities would start demanding the same perk to attend games! So while Travis is technically paying for the suite (so it looks kosher on paper) a plan is already in place to REIMBURSE him with an “appearance fee” to cover the cost of the suite. Long story short, as we previously reported, Taylor got what she wanted to appear at the game.

WILL CBS AND THE NFL PAY FOR TAYLOR SWIFT TO ATTEND THE SUPER BOWL?

Now that the Kansas City Chiefs are going to the Super Bowl, Taylor Swift wants a ride to the game. Taylor’s been a staple at games this year rooting for her boyfriend Travis Kelce and viewership is way UP – especially among the twenty-something female viewers that advertisers desire. If Taylor attends, CBS, the network airing the game, will likely earn millions more from the commercials since the costs for the ads are based on viewership. As told you, Taylor will have to move mountains to attend since she’s performing in Japan the night before. Taylor estimates it will cost around $1 million for a round trip private jet capable of making the journey from Japan to Las Vegas without refueling, and she wants the NFL and CBS to pay for it. Our football source says Taylor is likely to get her wish, since her attendance is THAT important to all parties involved…

THE STERN NFL BENDS OVER BACKWARDS TO PLEASE TAYLOR SWIFT

Whatever Taylor Swift wants, Taylor Swift gets! Taylor has become an NFL VIP thanks to her romance with Travis Kelce. The league has a strict NO PET policy, even for season ticket holders of the pricey private suites, but Taylor is pushing to change that. She owns three cats, and one of them enjoys traveling with her while the other two are homebodies. Taylor has informed the NFL that she wants to bring her one cat into the private suite for one of the upcoming games. According to our NFL source, Taylor now wields SO much power with the football league that they wouldn’t THINK of saying no to her, regardless of their longtime rules. My source jokes that Taylor’s presence at games has generated so much publicity and revenue that she could bring a lion to the game and the people in charge would allow it.

DID THE NFL MAKE TAYLOR SWIFT AN OFFER SHE CAN’T REFUSE?

Some NFL executives had a top-secret meeting with Taylor Swift. Now that she’s dating Kansas City Chiefs tight-end Travis Kelce, Taylor has become a fixture at many of their games. The NFL has NOTICED that the ratings go up every time Taylor appears at a game, and they’re reaching an entirely new audience – young woman! Behind very closed doors, Taylor recently met with some league executives and my source says they offered her anything she wanted, including private viewing suites, unlimited tickets, and even private JET transportation to any games she chooses to attend. The reality is, Taylor’s presence at these games has been the biggest thing to happen to football since Joe Namath posed in pantyhose in 1974 for a TV commercial!

SUDDENLY DOLLY PARTON IS ALL OVER THE PLACE

Not only is 77-year-old Dolly Parton’s Thanksgiving Day halftime show during the Dallas Cowboys football game trending across social media, but the performance caught the eyes of some NFL bigwigs. Dolly dressed up in the Dallas Cowboys cheerleader uniform and sang her most popular songs, including Jolene and 9 to 5, while promoting her Rockstar album,. Her performance was SO well received that executives are trying to work her into the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show in Las Vegas on February 11. My football source says that although Usher is the headliner for the show, executives are planning to go big with guest performances and now Dolly is on their wishlist.

THE NFL HAS A CRUSH ON TAYLOR SWIFT TOO!

Even if Taylor Swift’s romance with Travis Kelce doesn’t work out, she’s already profited from it. Taylor has been tapped to be the halftime performer at the 2025 Super Bowl! That big game will be held in New Orleans and the powers that be at the NFL think that Taylor’s romance with Travis Kelce has introduced football to an entirely new audience, so she was a natural choice. Now here’s an interesting tidbit: Although Usher is set to be the halftime performer at the 2024 Super Bowl, if Travis and his Kansas City Chiefs make it to the game there’s talk that Taylor will JOIN Usher and perform during the show! My source says it’s a lot of “what ifs” at this point, but if the stars align, Taylor might make history by performing at back to back Super Bowls!
