If you’re hoping to see Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce make their red carpet debut at the 2024 Oscars, you’re in luck.
After weeks apart, there is a very good chance that a Hollywood date night is in the future for these two.
And yes, we’ve got receipts, proof, timeline to back this up – though admittedly, we don’t have a confirmation directly from either Taylor or Travis.
But what kind of a surprise would it be if they confirmed it! Let’s get into this!

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce At The Oscars: Will They Go Together?
Perhaps the better question to be asking is not will, but can they go together – or even at all?
The answer to that, it turns out, is yes – but it would be ROUGH for Taylor.
Taylor’s is currently playing a string of shows in Singapore. Her last show out of the six scheduled is March 9th, the day before the Oscars on March 10th. But is there enough travel time?!
As we did in February for the Super Bowl, it’s time to do some travel math!

California is 16 hours behind Singapore, and the flight time is just over 15 hours between the two locations.
If her she ends her show at midnight Singapore time, books it to the airport and takes a direct flight, with the time change, the latest she would be back in Los Angeles is mid-morning on March 10th.
Exhausted, yes. But still in town.
Meanwhile, last we saw Travis, he was in Pennsylvania with his brother Jason Kelce doing charity work. His flight time to the Oscars? 5 hours – so, no issue there.

Was Taylor Swift Nominated For An Oscar This Year?
As much as it pains fans, what would’ve locked in Taylor as a sure thing for the Oscars would’ve been if her concert film, “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour,” had been nominated.
Sadly, for both her and Beyonce we might add, who also had a killer concert film in 2023, both were snubbed. Neither were eligible to submit or compete for an Academy Award nomination for documentary feature under the current guidelines.
And honestly, this is just a continued injustice on Taylor’s behalf. To date, she has never been nominated for any category. She missed out when she co-wrote “Beautiful Ghosts” with legendary composer Andrew Lloyd Webber for the movie Cats. (Say what you will about the film, the song is gorgeous.)
And in 2022, she was insulted twice over when she missed out on a nomination for original song for “Caroline” from the Sony Pictures drama adaptation Where the Crawdads Sing AND for short film with her 10-minute version of All Too Well.
Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce On The Red Carpet: Will It Happen at The Oscars?
To be honest, given her schedule, it might be too much to ask for to have them both on the Oscars red carpet.
But there are always the after parties, and both Travis and Taylor have been to the Vanity Fair party, the biggest most exclusive event, over the years.
It’s been a few years since Taylor’s gone (2016, to be exact), but Travis was there front and center in 2023, days after he hosted SNL.
“It was an honor to go to the Vanity Fair after-party,” Kelce said on his “New Heights” podcast in the days. “It was a blast. The Gold Party after that was even more fun. Got to see some of the coolest people in the entertainment world, not just Hollywood. Both sports and entertainment and I had an absolute blast.”
If Travis and Taylor go the Oscars and walk the red carpet together, this would be their official debut at a Hollywood event.
While she showed up to 13 straight games, including the Super Bowl, he’s yet to escort her down a red carpet.
She attended both the Golden Globes and the Grammys solo. The latter was a particularly big deal, as she won Album of the Year for the 4th time and took her place in music history with it.
Keeping our fingers crossed!
