AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift's dad insists he is a fan of "all" NFL teams. Former stockbroker Scott Kingsley Swift, 71, made the declaration despite his singer daughter, 34, dating The Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, 34.
He told a photographer at LAX when asked to name his favourite NFL team, "I'm a football fan - of all teams." Scott has been a long-time supporter of the Philadelphia Eagles, who Travis' brother Jason Kelce, 36, plays for.
Scott and other members of Taylor's family and team have arrived in Los Angeles ahead of Sunday's (February 4) Grammy Awards, which are being held at the Crypto.com Arena. Taylor was nominated for six awards this year, song of the year, record of the year, best pop solo performance, best pop duo/group performance, best pop vocal album and album of the year.
The singer is also set to launch the 2024 leg of her "Eras Tour" in Tokyo, Japan, on Wednesday, February 7. It's been reported that after four back-to-back concerts between Wednesday and Saturday, Taylor will travel by private jet to Las Vegas so she can watch Travis and his team take on the San Francisco 49ers for the Super Bowl LVIII on February 11.
Travis recently revealed he has named Taylor's dad "Big Scott". He revealed the moniker on Wednesday's (January 31) episode of his and his 36-year-old fellow NFL player brother Jason Kelce's "New Heights" podcast while discussing how Taylor's dad and the singer knew Kansas City Chiefs' head coach Andy Reid, 65, before he did.
Travis said, "Obviously, we've already talked about how they kind of know each other from the Philly days. Scott Swift – shout-out to Big Scott. Him and Andy are good friends."
