Sounds right. People were asking us a couple weeks ago if we'd try to get Super Bowl tickets if the Ravens made it (oops) and I just laughed at them because it's never even occurred to me that I might actually attend a Super Bowl. Basically you have to be billionaire to be able to "afford" to go to the Super Bowl.

Travis has already been gifted a free suite at the stadium so this suit must be for all her friends and family.

Oh god, I just realized this means she's going to be at the game with "her squad" maybe including, likely: Cara, Blake/Ryan, Selena, the Haims, Karlie, Sophie, etc. People are going to lose their minds. This is going to be SUCH a circus.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the 49ers personally invite TK’s ex Kayla Nicole and put her in a suite. KN is also really close with a lot of the 49er WAGs. Now that would be exciting to see TK’s girlfriend and ex on the Jumbotron!

They could stick Kayla Nicole in a sweet with Joe Jonas, John Mayer, and Matt Healy, just to see what happens.

What a lovely idea. Serves Taylor right for just living her life and existing. B deserves what’s coming to her.

I'm assuming the fake ship contract ends on Feb 12th, the day after the Super Bowl.

Not to much existing, just that when you don't marry at a reasonable age you have 15 or 20 years of relationships and sex life. It's not cute, it's a lot of baggage, a lot of it mortifying, especially when it's all in the public domain.

One reason I don't see them getting married and having kids is that what would that even look like? It is so, so hard to do her job with kids. Especially to do it the way she does it.

Like look at the people around them with kids. They mostly have at least one person who is either a SAHM or has the kind of career where taking time off to be with young kids is okay. Blake Lively has taken a step back from acting, so did Sophie Turner. Kylie Kelce and Brittany Mahomes sort of work but a huge part of their job is just the kids and supporting their husbands. A lot of their friends don't have kids despite being in the age range where people are most likely to do that. I just do not see Taylor doing what any of those women have done.

At the same time, I don't see Travis being the one who puts his career on the back burner to have kids. He is obviously chomping at the bit to launch an entertainment career, and the window between NFL retirement and losing the goodwill/fame/interest that would make that possible will be narrow, I think. I don't think he's going to be content to do the occasion broadcasting gig while trailing after Taylor on tour or being the primary parent while she's recording or promoting.

Anyway, I'm still not convinced it's even a real relationship, but even if it is, I don't see it lasting. It's worked thus far because the timing has allowed her to play WAG during a big season for him. That ends in 2 weeks and I don't see her backburnering anything to put him first, or vice versa.

Sorry this is off-topic, but Blake has four kids and an army of nannies. Period. When you see Blake dressed up on a night out with Taylor, she didn’t just put down the sippy cup and throw on that dress. A team of hair and make up people came to our house hours before and helped her get ready. That itself is a job. It is time away from the kids. I’m certainly not criticizing her for it but it is what it is. She acts pretty regularly, and she has a business - the Betty buzz thing - and she does a ton of side projects that let her showcase her baking and cooking skills that she has monetized. She is also at many fashion and industry events - which take a lot of planning and prep.

Sorry for the interruption but Blake and Ryan HUSTLE and they have somehow crafted this opposite image.

Betty Buzz is Ryan's business, she just did single branded offering within it. And yes, I am sure she's got a million nannies and is not actually SAHMing. But no, she is not acting a ton -- she's made 2 movies since 2018 and is in production on a 3rd. That's a light schedule for an actor and includes entire years where she did not work at all. She does charitable stuff and fashion stuff, I'm not saying she doesn't "hustle."

But is she focused on her career the way Taylor is? Absolutely not. So while Taylor has made a billion dollars and released album after album including her remastered versions, toured, won tons of Grammys, and become a cultural juggernaut, Lively is a sometimes-actress who is better known at this point for being Ryan Reynold's wife, having a lot of kids, and being on the original Gossip Girl. There is nothing wrong with any of that -- I'd personally rather have Blake's life than Taylor's because I'm not ambitious and it sounds more chill and fun.

But I don't think Taylor wants that life. She is incredibly ambitious. She is not going to go part-time the way Blake has.

I agree with you about Blake being less career focused but don’t agree She is less obsessed with her image than taylor. In fact, I believe she may be even more obsessed with image than Taylor.

Taylor loves the craft of songwriting and performing- and yes the celeb stuff that comes with it- Blake just seems to enjoy being a famous wife and fashionista and is it in for the pap walks. The crappy and sparse acting jobs are just the price she has to pay to do her real job of performing for the paps and being recognized as having an A list husband and being told on instagram how hot she is or how great her taste is.

So crazy to me people think she is chill and less ambitious. It just couldn’t be further from the truth. She’s just after a different outcome.

I don't think SHE is chill. I think her life is chill. I absolutely think Blake Lively spends like 90% of her life shopping/hanging with friends/hanging with family.

But she doesn’t. Because she spends a lot of time preparing to look good for those things and that is really itself a job. She crafts her image. It seems exhausting and the opposite of a chill life.

What fascinates me about the discussion differences on DCUM between Blake and Taylor is that people seem to accept Blake because she just dabbles in everything but shes not trying to be super successful or anything.

We accept that she has a business because it’s really Ryan’s business as someone pointed out. She’s super rich but a lot of it is his money. She does a little bit of acting, but not much. She dabbles in fashion, but isn't trying to dominate. It’s very acceptable that she’s a mom and a wife. we like that she works but she doesn’t work too much.

Taylor, on the other hand is just too much of everything. She doesn’t do music she dominates it. She isn’t just a businesswoman she is THE business woman. She’s also not a mom and she’s wasting her good eggs…or something.

Blake loves attention and her hamming it up at the game, girls night out, etc. is just as ridiculous and to me seems MORE desperate than Taylor but no one criticizes her for all the above reasons.

I disagree. I think Taylor’s business is really her parents. Her parents announced their marriage like it was a stock deal. (I’m sure it was “funny” to them, but it still speaks volumes). Her parents are the ones who monetized her. She knows nothing else and goes along with it. She vaguely feels this is strange, but has no clue how to take control of this at this point and is still living as the dreams of her parents rather than just the life she wants. (See anti-hero)

At this point it’s Taylor. She loves performing and she loves writing songs. Read interviews with any musical icon she has worked with, and they will all say the same thing, they are blown away by her work ethic.

I have no doubt it started with her parents when she was a child but now she is clearly driven by something and it seems separate from money.

I don’t think she has been given the space to even know what she loves, so she works and tries to please. I’m mostly bothered that this is seen as a role model for girls: going along with your parent’s ideas until it becomes your persona and you don’t know what you want other than to be approved of by other girls, men and your mom and dad.

Taylor is a business woman who has done quite well in a mans world. Some of her music deals are amazing.
Taylor is human and does lovely thing for people in need. Huricane Katrina she gave cash and actually helped.
Taylor is a human business woman who treats her employees well.

You are not a role model for your daughter how ever Taylor is.

Seriously you are a complete and utter idiot.

Who do you want your daughters to emulate Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Nicki Haley, Ginni Thomas?

Wow, DP but this is so rude and unreasonable. The PP stated an opinion about Taylor based on her knowledge that her parents really pushed/helped build her career. I don't even agree with the opinion but it's a valid one. She didn't say anything mean or personal about Taylor, just stated that she wants something different for her daughter and that's not the model she wants her to follow. That's normal! I also don't intend to push my DD into show business at 14, even if she's a talented musician. It runs counter to my parenting values.

But your response was viciously mean and personal for no reason. Dial. It. Down. Taylor Swift does not need you doing crap like this "for" her.

The response was rude but the PP’s opinion that Taylor pursued a music career for her parents is not based in fact. The idea that Taylor continues to work in the music industry for her parents is absurd. But maybe PP is confusing Taylor with Britney.

I disagree with the extent of PP's comment but it is true that Taylor's parents are super stage parents and it's reasonable to wonder if she would have pursued this career without them.

The response to PP was totally out of line.

No one is trying to punish Taylor for existing. The point is the whole thing has become a circus.

When Taylor started hanging out with Sophie Turner after Joe Jonas filed for divorce (they were not previously friends), was that Taylor trying to punish Jonas for existing?

Wait.
You mean to tell me that a billionaire celebrity is buying a suite to watch the superbowl?!?!?
I’ve never heard of such an outrageous thing!
And you mean to tell me that they will host their rich and famous friends?
This is just outlandish!!!!

I don't even understand what this is in response to.

No one is surprised Taylor got a suite or that she might/will probably invite some famous people. We're just discussing it, weirdo.

Some of you have some kind of hypersensitive "Is Taylor Swift being unfairly maligned????" switch that got stuck in the on position. To quote your lord and savior: you need to calm down.

I'm getting increasingly curious as to whether this relationship can ever live up to the hype now surrounding it. At this point it feels like if they DON'T stay together, get married (in a wedding that puts Kim & Kanye's to shame), pop out some kids to trot around, start a production company, Kelce becomes the star of a tent pole action adventure film series, and Taylor eventually runs for president, I think it's going to be feel like a let down of sorts.

And if they do break up in a few months, I think some people are going to feel, uh, disappointed. Like the PP who wants NORAD to provide a tracker for her private jet.

I’m a little bit surprised that she spoke about him in the Time Magazine article; she must really think they might go the distance. I hope they do. She deserves a good relationship.

lol...your synopsis of what is expected of them is spot on. If there's even a wiff of anything wrong, people will have a field day. Because, you know, if a real relationship, everything is always perfect.

Because the relationship is so public. If you don't want people picking apart your relationship, don't put it on display in this way.

Honestly, this is a lesson even regular people learn. I learned to be discrete about my love life and be thoughtful about who I discussed it with, because the truth is that most people are not cheering you on and wishing you well. Plenty of people enjoy watching others screw up (it makes them feel better about themselves). So I would NEVER put my relationship on blast the way these two have. It's really asking for trouble, if you ask me.

It’s literally a rant on the page before this one, dum dum.

No one called it outrageous or outlandish. And I don't see "rants," I see commentary, some of which is negative. But then I don't go through this thread viewing every not-glowing comment as a personal attack I need to jump all over. Dum dum.

☝️pedantic dum dum didn’t see exact verbiage.

The point is that sharing stuff about your relationship with people *beyond* your friends who will of course support you is dumb. The regular person version of Taylor-Travis is being very public about a new relationship with coworkers or neighbors, many of whom do not have your happiness as a priority and will gleefully gossip about you or pick apart your relationship without regard for how it will impact you.

I'm not Taylor Swift's friend but wow do I know a lot about her 6-month-old relationship with Travis Kelce. I would never allow so many people who are not close friends or family know this much about my love life.

No. Most people’s coworkers and acquaintances aren’t rooting against them.
This is a you thing.
And it’s not great.
