Taylor Swift seems to be the answer to the “Blank Space” in Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce’s love life. The famous pop star is rumored to have been dating Kelce. So much so, that even NASCAR superstars are doting on the Swift-Kelce love story.

Many might not like it, but veteran NASCAR personality Kenny Wallace seems to be at perfect peace with this budding romance. In fact, he made a shocking revelation that would have the fans wheel their heads.

Another NFL weekend remained conspicuous by another Taylor Swift sighting. The 33-year-old megastar set her feet back into the Arrowhead Stadium to support her rumored boyfriend’s home-ground game against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.

Wearing an oversized Kansas City Chiefs t-shirt above a black pleated skirt, Swift stood on the grandstands and cheered for Kelce. What’s more interesting is that a bracelet with Kelce’s jersey number “87” written between two hearts, which said “Vigilante S***” from her 2022 album Midnights on it, glittered on her wrists.

Since the time when Swift showed up for the first time for Kelce’s game in September, the couple were spotted frequently together, including when they attended the Saturday Night Live after-party last week. Several sources say that they seemed to be all lovey-dovey, holding hands, whispering into each other’s ears. While many might find this obsession with the pair odd, Kenny Wallace saw nothing wrong with it.

In a recent episode of The Kenny Wallace Show, he said, “It’s fun. It’s all good. You know, I could be a grumpy old man and go, dammit! I’m tired of all this Taylor Swift stuff. But I can’t You know why? Because it’s making everybody so happy.”

“I’m not one of those guys. You know, things aren’t too great right now everywhere, in everybody’s life. If it takes a girl that makes good music and she fell in love with a football player, it don’t bother me at all. Hell actually, maybe I’m a Swiftie!”

Kenny Wallace is a Swiftie. Isn’t that worthy of being NASCAR’s breaking news? Nevertheless, when NASCAR decided to play Swift’s popular number ‘Bad Blood’ during the pre-race driver’s meetings, fans didn’t tread lightly.

Front Row Motorsports icon Michael McDowell might have started to vibe a bit, but promptly stopped moving his head, seeing nobody else in the grid, enjoying the song. After all, every NASCAR race is nothing less than a battle. Imagine listening to pop music before going into a war.

We are no haters of pop music, but the fans didn’t like it even a bit when The Athletic’s Jeff Gluck wrote, “This is the actual song being played for the NASCAR pre-race drivers meeting hype video. This is real, promise.”

Someone said, “Could you imagine Tony Stewart sitting through this shit?”

While another fan wrote, “Please keep Taylor out of my favorite sport. I just can’t stand it. Why is she a thing?”

An enthusiast joked saying, “Ok something needs to be done about this ASAP 😝 I have a NASCAR Spotify playlist that would not disappoint and I would be happy to share 🤣”
