The White House has been asked for a response to the rumors that Travis Kelce, who turned 34 on Thursday, and Taylor Swift are dating. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has been rumored to be in a relationship with the singer for several weeks.<\/p>\n
Rumors that Swift and Kelce are dating have been dominating headlines ever since the pair were spotted together at an event in New York City at the beginning of September. Neither Kelce nor Swift have publicly confirmed or denied the romance, but the Chiefs tight end did praise the singer during his podcast “New Heights” last week.<\/p>\n
Swift has been in attendance for each of the past two Chiefs games in the NFL. The singer was at Arrowhead Stadium on Sept. 24 for the win over the Chicago Bears and MetLife Stadium a week later for the victory over the New York Jets.<\/p>\n
The singer\/songwriter was regularly featured during the NFL\u2019s TV coverage from private suites at the games at Arrowhead and MetLife. And now the subject has reached the White House press room.<\/p>\n

National Security Council spokesman John Kirby spoke in a briefing on Tuesday at the White House where he was asked about the dating rumors between Kelce and Swift. In the briefing, the White House spokesman gave a rather amusing response when asked for President Joe Biden\u2019s opinion on the rumors.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know who Taylor Swift is, apparently she is dating a football player,\u201d Kirby said, when first asked about the subject of the potential romance.<\/p>\n
One journalist then asked: \u201cDoes President Biden think it’s real?\u201d<\/p>\n
Kirby smiled, before responding: \u201cThe relationship? In the vernacular of the National Security Council, I can neither confirm nor deny those reports. I will happily take the question back to our analysts.\u201d<\/p>\n

This Sunday will see Kansas City go on the road to face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 5 of the 2023 NFL regular season at U.S. Bank Stadium.<\/p>\n The Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, recently issued a plea to Swift in order to convince her to attend Sunday\u2019s game between the Vikings and the Chiefs.<\/p>\n “If Taylor chooses to come back to Minneapolis [sometimes known as Swiftieapolis] this weekend, we\u2019ll be Ready For It,\u201d Frey told TMZ.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s possible she will have to console Travis Kelce after the Vikings beat the Chiefs, but there are plenty of great spots across town for them to go on a date and lift their spirits!”<\/p>\n
