“30 years of life for you, 11 years of friendship for us. Thanks for being the bestest friend, listener, dance party-starter, story teller, haircut enthusiast, with the biggest, warmest, and most generous heart,” Avignone wrote via Instagram in December 2019. “Happy Birthday Tay!! Love you to pieces ??.”
Avignone has been spotted alongside Taylor at several Chiefs games since the singer began dating Kelce, 34, in summer 2023. She was one of Taylor’s guests at the October 2023 game against the New York Jets that took place in New Jersey. Avignone later hung out with Taylor at a December 2023 game in New England against the Patriots.
While Taylor’s beer chugging moment caught fans’ attention on Sunday, it wasn’t her only memorable interaction during the Super Bowl.
The “Exile” singer was seen hugging and swaying with Lively, 34, during Post Malone’s “America the Beautiful” performance before kickoff. The song was performed by Post Malone, who will be featured on the pop star’s upcoming album The Tortured Poets Department. Taylor was later spotted picking up Lively during one of the Chiefs’ big plays.
