Swift has greatly increased the NFL's and the Chiefs' prominence since she started dating Kelce in 2023 summer. Swift's meteoric rise to the status of a billionaire follows the success of her Eras Tour, which according to Pollstar has brought in over $1 billion.

Moreover, she has grown to be an avid NFL fan, having watched Kelce play in 13 games last season, including Kansas City's February Super Bowl victory in Las Vegas. Swift has been to three games this season, per The US Sun.

Social media users provided mixed reactions to the notion of Taylor Swift purchasing a portion of the Kansas City Chiefs as one X (formerly Twitter) user said, "I think she has the ability to buy the whole team if she wants to"

Another user supported and said, "The rich get richer. Chiefs only going up"

"For all the money she’s generating the should give her a stake!" exclaimed a user.

Another wrote, "She already has a majority stake in the rest of the NFL's fanbase so why not?"



 



 



 



 

Several users appeared to not approve of the idea as one noted, "She would be Travis Kelce's boss... that man needs to run away now ~ I doubt the Hunt family would sell"

Another echoed a similar sentiment and said, "I know don’t think she’ll want her name tied that close because they have very different moral views"

"Travis Kelce will work for her…no good .. not going to happen.." chimed in another.

Another said, "As someone who grew up in KC and has been a fan of Chiefs since Lenny Dawson and playing at the old stadium, NO THANKS!"
