Taylor Swift Skipped the Emmys for Monday Night Football — and Tom Cruise Was Sitting Next to Her

Taylor Swift had two very different Monday night options: the Emmy Awards or a suite at Arrowhead Stadium watching Travis Kelce and the Chiefs take on the Denver Broncos. She went with football, and she brought the whole family. Her parents, her brother, and Travis’s parents Donna and Ed all joined her, making it a full Swift-Kelce affair on Monday Night Football.

The real surprise was the seat next to her. Tom Cruise sat beside Swift in the suite, and when the Chiefs scored a touchdown, the two shared a hug. According to sportscasters Joe Buck and Greg Olsen, Cruise also attended Swift and Kelce’s July 3 wedding, which tells you this friendship goes deeper than a random stadium run-in.

Swift didn’t completely skip the Emmys, though. She pre-taped a Law&Order: SVU sketch with Mariska Hargitay, so fans still got their moment. Her Eras Tour film went into the night with five nominations and lost to Sabrina Carpenter’s Muppets special. And if you loved her red-and-white gingham polo dress from Guest in Residence, we have bad news: it’s sold out. Which celebrity outfit would you actually try to buy? Let us know in the comments.
