Taylor Swift fans have been whipped into a frenzy over the last few days after she was spotted at an NFL game.
She was invited to Kansas City to watch the Chiefs play the Chicago Bears on Sunday and was in a private box.
The pop star was sat next to Donna Kelce, the mother of Travis Kelce.
To many Swifties, this man was completely unknown to them until last weekend and there are strong rumors the NFL player is dating their beloved article.

In just a few days after her landmark appearance at Arrowhead Stadium, sales for his jersey exploded by nearly 400 per cent.
He's also gained more than 300,000 followers on social media.
Swift fans thought it would be funny to try and trigger the men in their lives in the wake of this development.
Loads of TikTok videos have been posted showing women telling their boyfriends, husbands, dads and sons about Taylor's impact on the athlete's profile.
They're telling the men that it's super exciting that Kelce's NFL career is really going to take off.
One fan said: "Isn't it crazy how all this publicity going around Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce that now he's gonna have a career 'cause of her?...She's putting him on the map."
The woman's partner was shocked by the statement and politely told her that Kelce is already very much on the map.
Another woman told her husband that everyone is now talking about Travis Kelce because of Taylor Swift.
His reaction was priceless.
"That's just 'cause you're not in the sports world," he replied.
To be fair, the men aren't wrong.
Travis Kelce is a force to be reckoned with.
Not only has he been in two winning Super Bowls and recorded a touchdown reception in both wins, but he's considered to be 'one of the greatest tight ends of all time' in the NFL.
He holds the NFL record for most consecutive and most overall seasons with 1,000 yards receiving by a tight end with seven and he also has the record for most receiving yards by a tight end in a single season with 1,416 in 2020 even though he only played 15 games.
He's a big deal in the NFL world.
However, he's won himself a whole bunch of fans around the planet because Taylor Swift is a big deal.
Like a huge, monumental deal.
