Yes, Taylor Swift has bodyguards – and they have the most important job ever!
Taylor has caught the attention of unhinged megalomaniacs, become a target for existential threats to America, and somehow received the ire of sports fans for daring to also enjoy a sport.
She’s also, simply put, one of the most famous people on the planet. In a sense, every public appearance carries some risk.
Fortunately, she has a security team. Let’s discuss what we know about her bodyguards and how they’ve managed to keep her safe, even during the craziness of the Super Bowl!
Taylor Swift has bodyguards, especially at NFL games
As part of Taylor’s relationship with Travis Kelce, the Chiefs and stadium security have become familiar with her
Clark Hunt, the Chairman of the Kansas City Chiefs, recently spoke on SiriusXM about Swift’s security.
“We’re really excited to have Taylor Swift as a Chiefs fan,” Hunt praised. “And if you watch her during the games, she is all in. She’s not a casual fan there. She is really into (the game).”
Last September, Taylor caused her fans and sports fans alike to do double-takes as she began attending Chiefs games.
She wasn’t just in the stands, but watching the games alongside Donna Kelce — mother of Travis Kelce.
This was how she soft-launched her now-famous relationship with the notorious football himbo.
Taylor Swift has become a mainstay at Chiefs games
For months, Taylor Swift has made regular appearances at Travis Kelce’s sports game.
She has even brought famous friends and her own family along to watch. In the process, she has reminded millions of her fans that sports exist — and, for some of them, sparked an interest in football.
But Taylor is extremely wealthy, supremely famous, and a possible target for anyone from ambitious criminals to deranged extremists.
“Obviously, anywhere she goes is a security issue,” Hunt acknowledged of the singer.
“It’s something that we’ve helped her security team handle when she comes to games in Kansas City,” he shared. “And I know the visiting teams that we’ve played this year where she’s shown up have had to do the same thing.”
Hunt then assessed: “She has a really talented security team. They liaison with our security team, and we make sure we get her into and out of the stadium safely.”
Taylor Swift’s bodyguards are no joke
While Hunt clearly has more inside details on Taylor’s security than he would ever share, even social media users can see her bodyguards on high alert.
For example, when Taylor Swift was at the Super Bowl victory party, she was clubbing — with her security detail keeping close.
Taylor was able to have a good time. But when someone — likely very innocently — tried to walk by her, her bodyguards very professionally stepped in.
Travis Kelce himself spoke to Entertainment Tonight about Taylor Swift’s bodyguards, praising them for their dedication and professionalism.
“They’re great, they’re good people,” the football player affirmed.
It is a relief to know that Taylor is in good hands. With so many eyes on her, and so many bizarre conspiracy theories targeting her, she needs layers of protection.
