A Special Nod to Travis Kelce
Taylor Swift made headlines with a subtle yet romantic gesture dedicated to her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce. While presenting the award for Best Country Album, Swift walked out to her song “So High School,” a track from her 2024 album The Tortured Poets Department.

Fans have long speculated that the song is about Kelce, and Swift seemingly confirmed this in the song’s lyric video, where she highlighted their initials in the lyrics: “Cheeks pink in the twinkling lights / Tell me ’bout the first time you saw me.” Adding to the tribute, Swift accessorized her stunning Vivienne Westwood red corset dress with a custom ruby “T” chain around her upper thigh, a piece she personally collaborated on with designer Lorraine Schwartz. The jewelry, featuring over 60 carats of rubies, was seen as a sweet nod to Kelce, whose football schedule prevented him from attending the ceremony.
