Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are set to make headlines as they potentially debut as a couple at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) this Wednesday. The couple has been the talk of the town following a romantic weekend in New York City, which included dinners, a wedding at Electric Lady Studios, and a thrilling evening at the US Open men’s championship. However, the excitement surrounding their rumored appearance is tempered by Kelce’s commitments to the Kansas City Chiefs, who have a crucial game against the Cincinnati Bengals this Sunday.
Kelce has returned to Kansas City for practice and meetings after his whirlwind weekend, with two critical practices scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday. This tight schedule raises questions about his ability to make it to the VMAs, especially with the red carpet opening at 5:00 PM ET. To pull off a last-minute entrance, Kelce would need to leave Kansas City by 3:00 PM CT. The journey from the Chiefs’ practice facility to the airport takes approximately 20 minutes, followed by a three-hour flight to New York, assuming favorable conditions. If all goes smoothly, he could arrive at JFK around 7:00 PM ET, allowing him a narrow window to reach the UBS Arena.
While Swift is expected to attend the VMAs, where she is nominated for an impressive 12 awards and stands on the brink of potentially breaking records, Kelce’s participation hinges on the clock. With Swift known for her fashionably late arrivals, the timing could work in their favor, but it remains a tight fit. As the VMAs approach, fans and media alike will be watching closely to see if the stars align for Kelce to join Swift on the red carpet or if his dedication to football keeps him grounded in Kansas City. All eyes will be on this potential historic moment as the couple’s relationship unfolds amidst the glitz and glamour of the VMAs.
