Coachella 2024: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce spotted at Bleachers, Ice Spice sets

Just as was rumored earlier this week, Taylor Swift opted to use a Blank Space in her schedule this weekend to attend the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in support of pal Jack Antonoff.

It all became clear when Antonoff's band, Bleachers, was performing an energetic set in Coachella's Mojave tent Saturday night, and many attendees had their cell phones trained not on Antonoff, but on the wings stage left.

That’s because there, amid the smoke machine fog, stood two figures with the body size and musical enthusiasm to match Taylor Swift and her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce. It soon became clear it was the world’s biggest power couple bopping along to the band led by Swift's longtime friend and collaborator Antonoff. The long-held rumor that the two were attending Weekend 1 of Coachella was finally confirmed.

As fans with the right angle scrambled to capture an image or video of the two, Swift and Kelce danced and fist-pumped to the lively Bleachers’ set.

There was no mention of them during the set, nor did the video cameras catch them in the background, but eagle-eyed fans were quickly aware of their presence, thanks mostly to the bright-white baseball cap and oversized glasses being worn by Kelce.

Swift and Kelce were also spotted later Saturday evening catching another Swift collaborator, Ice Spice, performing in the Sahara tent.

The Eras Tour singer is on a two-month break from her massive three-plus-hour concert and has been spending most of her time in the Los Angeles area.

Antonoff is one of four artists on the Coachella lineup who Swift has worked with. After she didn't pop onstage with Eras Tour (international leg) opener Sabrina Carpenter or "Snow on the Beach" collaborater Lana Del Rey yesterday, many people wondered if Swift would show at all, but the Swifties will be glad to know she and Kelce appear to be living their best lives as spectators this weekend.
