Travis Kelce—but no Taylor Swift—spotted at Churchill Downs for Kentucky Derby 2024
There are some big reputations at the Kentucky Derby this year: Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was spotted at the 150th run for the roses.
Kelce was also sighted at Sports Illustrated’s Revel At the Races event, which took place at the Ice House in downtown Louisville Friday night. Kelce was with his friends, The Chainsmokers, and danced all evening with a group at an exclusive table, according to a press release from RMG PR.

At the Derby Saturday, Kelce was spotted wearing a white, pinstripe suit reminiscent of 1920s fashion. On his head, he wore a dark blue fedora.
There were rumors in the days leading up to the Derby that his superstar girlfriend Taylor Swift could also be in attendance Saturday, along with Kelce’s brother Jason.

Swift begins performing her Eras Tour in Paris, France, later this week. Social media reports Saturday said her private plane had been tracked to Paris.
Swift has been busy for the last year: her Eras Tour was the first time the singer toured since 2018, selling out shows around the world. She made further headlines in 2023 after taking her romance with Kelce public.
And just two weeks ago, Swift released her 11th studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” which broke streaming records.
The Kelce brothers have been in the spotlight too, with Travis signing a contract extension that makes him the highest paid tight end in the NFL, and a Super Bowl win. Jason retired from the Philadelphia Eagles after 13 years on the team and will take on a new role at ESPN.
