‘Nobody gives a s*** about these 2’: Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s low-key Oscars night backfires online

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were in Los Angeles on March 15, 2026, during the 98th Academy Awards. Rather than walking the red carpet or attending the main ceremony, the couple chose private, low-profile afterparties. Their appearances were subtle, away from flashbulbs and crowds, keeping a quiet presence throughout Oscar night.


The first stop reported was the Chateau Marmont party hosted by Jay-Z and Beyoncé. Swift wore a gold sequined dress with red heels, her face partially shielded by an umbrella, while Kelce stayed close by. Reports suggest the couple spent much of their time away from cameras, preferring the hills around the venue to the main event. Later, they were seen at Madonna and Guy Oseary’s private gathering, known for being one of Hollywood’s most exclusive, intimate parties. Attending these events fits a pattern for the pair, who have favored select private gatherings over high-profile, public appearances in recent months.

Fans and Online reactions to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Oscars night

Although they avoided the main spotlight, the couple’s subtle appearances did not go unnoticed online. With that buzz came two photos of someone being hidden by black umbrellas. While the person's face can’t be identified, you can see the bottom of their gold dress and their red-bottomed heels. Apparently, sources suggest that it is the pop star's leg. Social media buzzed with reactions following reports from Page Six and various sources. The page six Twitter post reported, “Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce sneakily attend multiple, exclusive Oscars afterparties.”



In that post, many fans reacted brutally. Some fans criticised their presence, with comments like “Nobody gives a s*** about these 2. She is so desperate to stay relevant ��”


Another fan added, “AND YET they weren’t invited, and weren’t wanted there.”


While some even praised the couple, “Taylor and Travis, you are such a handsome couple. She’s beautiful, he’s handsome, and everybody wants them at their party.”

Other folks also speculated that Swift might reveal more photos publicly once she is nominated for an award in the future.

Their low-key approach contrasts with the typical Oscars attention. The couple’s decision reflects a strategy of balancing public exposure with private time, especially during major cultural moments. Earlier in February, Swift and Kelce were seen at Zero Bond and Chez Margaux in New York, continuing the pattern of exclusive, controlled outings.

Travis Kelce’s current NFL Status and Oscars Context

The weekend also coincided with important news for Travis Kelce's NFL career. He recently agreed to a one-year deal worth $12 million, with a maximum value of $15 million, confirming he will remain with the Kansas City Chiefs for his 14th season. The decision ensured continuity with head coach Andy Reid, quarterback Patrick Mahomes, and teammate Chris Jones, even as his visibility off-field grew alongside Taylor Swift’s global influence.

Meanwhile, the Oscars ceremony itself produced memorable moments. Michael B. Jordan won Best Actor, edging out Timothée Chalamet. Jessie Buckley celebrated her first Oscar for Hamnet, and Paul Thomas Anderson earned his first wins for Best Picture and Best Director. Even with major wins and highlights, the weekend spotlight remained partially on Swift and Kelce’s exclusive, under-the-radar appearances, proving that Hollywood and the NFL can intersect quietly yet memorably.
