NEW YORK (AP) --- Taylor Swift attended Game 4 of the NBA Finals between the
New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs at Madison Square Garden, the arena that
has gotten a lot of attention recently as the possible location for her
upcoming wedding to Travis Kelce.
Swift wore a blue T-shirt with "Stevie Knicks" printed in orange lettering and
was seated courtside on Wednesday night. She attended along with singers Este
and Alana Haim, who also had Knicks-related references on their shirts:
"Knickole Kidman" and "Knickleback."
Less than a year after their August engagement announcement, reports of Swift
and Kelce's impending nuptials have reached a crescendo. TMZ and the New York
Post's Page Six recently started insisting Swift and Kelce will marry at the
Garden in early July, despite their close connections to everywhere from Kansas
City, Missouri, and Nashville, Tennessee, to Cleveland and Rhode Island.
Swift and the Haim sisters were among several celebrities in the house,
including regulars like Ben Stiller and Spike Lee. Swift and Kelce attended
Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals between the Knicks and Cavaliers, not
far from where the Kansas City Chiefs tight end is from in Cleveland Heights,
Ohio.
This is the latest sporting event for Swift, who along with Kelce also attended
a game during the NHL's Stanley Cup Final a year ago in Sunrise, Florida.
The Madison Square Garden wedding reports remain unconfirmed, and a
spokesperson for Swift has not responded to The Associated Press' requests for
comment about the wedding plans. The arena's calendar of upcoming events lists
nothing from June 29-July 6.
Swift first performed at Madison Square Garden in 2009, during her "Fearless"
tour, and she celebrated her 30th birthday at the arena 10 years later as part
of iHeartRadio's "Jingle Ball." She has since graduated to larger venues when
she swings through the New York area; her Eras tour shows were just across the
river at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
