CLEVELAND — The New York Knicks are known for their celebrity crowd. Timothée Chalamet, Ben Siller, and Spike Lee are mainstays on the sideline at Madison Square Garden. But so far, the Cleveland Cavaliers have hosted the biggest celebrity so far.
Cleveland Heights native and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has attended many Cavaliers playoff games since entering the NFL. The team even had a bobblehead giveaway for him back in 2023. Although he’s never brought his world-famous pop star fiancée to the game.
Taylor Swift was in attendance, sitting baseline, across from the Cavs’ bench throughout the game.
The Cavs introduced Swift at the end of the third quarter to a loud ovation, but it was Kelce who stole the show. He chugged a beer and proudly displayed the free giveaway shirt he was wearing under his button-up.
Swift is one of the highest recording artists of all time. She boasts 14 number-one hits on the U.S. Billboard Top 100. This has led to her being the wealthiest female musician of all time.
The Cavs need all the good luck they can get in their Eastern Conference Finals series against the Knicks. They trail 2-0 in the best-of-seven series to decide who will go to the NBA Finals. The Cavs had a chance to steal Game 1 in New York, but blew a 22-point lead in the fourth quarter and ultimately lost in overtime.
The Cavs are hoping to turn things around in Game 3. Maybe Swift and Kelce can help turn the luck around this series.
