WWE star Baron Corbin has lifted the lid on what it is like to sit with Taylor Swift as she cheers Travis Kelce on the for the Kansas City Chiefs.
The singer is expected to be at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday night as Kelce and the Chiefs face the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship game. The winner advances to the Super Bowl in New Orleans on February 9.
Corbin, real name Tom Pestock, joined Swift in Kelce’s suite at Arrowhead in December 2023 after meeting the Chiefs star at a charity event, with Kelce then inviting him to a game.
In an appearance on ‘Insight with Chris Van Vliet’, Pestock revealed he took his brother and his uncle along to the December 10 game against the Bills at Arrowhead, which the Chiefs lost 20-17.
‘We’re, like, buds now,’ he said of Kelce. ‘We went.. and then either my uncle or my brother was like, ‘I wonder if Taylor’s going to be here,’ and as they say it, she was in the room.
‘My brother’s freaking a little bit but she just walks right up to everybody, gives them a hug. And gives us a hug. It was like you were instantly family,’ he said.
‘But it’s crazy because I wanted out of that suite for a little while. Dude, it’s just mobs of people standing outside the suite just taking selfies of Taylor.
‘That was different magnitude. You felt like everyone in the stadium was staring at you because you’re standing behind her.
‘I had conversations with her. Super dope, super humble. Down to earth. And it’s all Kelce’s buddies from high school and home and they’re all super cool. Nobody’s got egos in there.’
Pestock added that after the game, he went to a Christmas party with Swift and Kelce.
‘Travis threw a little Christmas party. We hung out, went to the bar,’ he said. ‘I don’t know what she was drinking but she’ll go.
‘She’s just a regular human that’s probably the most influential person in the world right now. And unbelievably talented.’
