Look what you made her do: Taylor Swift just got several members of her celebrity squad together to help celebrate one of her best friends—Blake Lively.
The Grammy winner hosted several of her pals at her Rhode Island mansion this weekend, including the It Ends With Us actress, who celebrated her 37th birthday Aug. 25.
Also among Taylor’s house guests: Blake’s husband Ryan Reynolds, the “Blank Space” singer’s boyfriend Travis Kelce, his brother Jason Kelce and his wife Kylie Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs Quarterback Patrick Mahomes and wife Brittany Mahomes, and Bradley Cooper, as seen in photos TMZ and the Daily Mail posted.
Taylor, 34, and Blake have been friends for almost a decade. The singer included the voice of the actress and Ryan’s eldest daughter James on her Reputation album track “Gorgeous” and gave the 9-year-old and sisters Inez, 7, and Betty, 4, shoutouts on her folklore song “Betty.”
Taylor recently began a two-month hiatus from her Eras tour, which had included visits from all of her recent weekend guests, including Travis, who attended more than a dozen of her concerts.
The singer, who has hosted multiple Fourth of July parties at her Rhode Island home for her friends over the years, was last seen with the Kansas City Chiefs star tight end backstage at her show in Gelsenkirchen, Germany July 18.
Travis and Patrick are currently preparing for the start of the NFL’s regular season on Sept. 5 and finished their last pre-season game Aug. 22, which they lost to the Chicago Bears.
Taylor, who has been dating Travis for about a year, had attended most of the Chiefs’ games last season, including with friends such as Blake and Ryan. In February, the Gossip Girl alum also joined the “Style” singer at the 2024 Super Bowl, which the Kansas City team won against the San Francisco 49ers.
Look back at Taylor and Travis’ love story…

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s love story began in July 2023, when the singer’s Eras Tour made a stop at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
As a huge Swiftie, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end caught the show with hopes of giving Taylor a friendship bracelet with his number on it. However, he failed to complete the pass due to her pre-show rituals.
“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” Travis shared on the July 26 episode of his New Heights podcast. “So, I was a little butt-hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”

After publicly recounting his fumble—a move Taylor would later describe as “metal as hell”—Travis decided to shoot his shot and invite the Grammy winner to watch the Chiefs play at Arrowhead Stadium.
“I threw it out there, I threw the ball in her court,” he shared on The Pat McAfee Show. “I told her, you know, ‘I’ve seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one’s a little more lit.’ So, we’ll see what happens in the near future.”

Travis was rocking a mustache—which he debuted in August during training camp—when he was first introduced to Taylor.
As he later noted of the era, “That ‘stache and the 87 jersey was pretty iconic there for a little bit, and I had it when I met Taylor for the first time.”

Accepting Travis’ invite, Taylor joined the athlete’s mom Donna Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium to watch him and the Chiefs take on the Chicago Bears. After the game, Taylor and Travis were seen packing PDA at a local bar.
Though folklore had it that it was the couple’s first in-person meeting, the “Karma” singer later clarified the two had spent a “significant amount of time” getting to know each other beforehand.
As Taylor noted, “We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.”

Taylor addressed the lavender craze surrounding her appearances at Travis’ games.
“I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care,” she told Time. “The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone.”
