Most Shocking MTV VMAs Moments: Britney Spears & Madonna’s Kiss, Kanye West & Taylor Swift and More
Travis Kelce is busy being Taylor Swift’s guy on the Chiefs.
After all, the Kansas City Chiefs’ away game against the Miami Dolphins is why the tight end won’t be with his wife as she attends the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles Sept. 27.
Hours before music’s most iconic night is set to begin, Kelce and his teammates, including quarterback Patrick Mahomes, will kick off inside Miami’s Hard Rock Stadium, and their game isn’t expected to end until after Snoop Dogg begins his hosting duties at the VMAs.
So, who from the singer’s squad is expected to join her on the red carpet? Well, her bestie Dakota Johnson—who stars in the music video for Swift’s new single “Patient Zero,” airing during the show—may just make the whole place shimmer by her side.
And no doubt the Verity actress will be cheer captain as Swift is bestowed the first-ever Artist Director Honors at the VMAs, a new honor designed to recognize “groundbreaking music artists whose work behind the camera has expanded the possibilities of music video and advanced the art of visual storytelling,” according to a Sept. 21 press release from MTV and CBS.
