Taylor Swift Lights Up the New Season with Chiefs Anthem

Kansas City, MO – May 26, 2025

In a thrilling moment for football and music fans alike, Taylor Swift has set the NFL ablaze by releasing a special anthem dedicated to the Kansas City Chiefs, the team of her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Inspired by her love for Kelce and the passion of Chiefs fans, the song is poised to become the team’s new “spiritual weapon” for the 2025 season.

“Chiefs Forever” Anthem Debuts with Emotion
Titled Chiefs Forever, the track was unexpectedly unveiled by Swift on X late Sunday night, May 25, 2025, just hours before the Chiefs’ Organized Team Activities (OTAs) kicked off. With its powerful melody, inspiring lyrics, and a catchy chorus, the song quickly went viral on social media, racking up over 1 million streams in just 12 hours.

The lyrics blend the Chiefs’ fighting spirit with Swift and Kelce’s love story. A standout chorus line goes:
"We’re red and gold, hearts so bold / With you by my side, we’ll never fold / Chiefs forever, we’ll take the crown / Together we’ll never back down!"

Swift shared on Instagram: “I wrote Chiefs Forever to honor the unbreakable spirit of Chiefs Kingdom and my love for Travis. I hope this song brings energy to the team and fans for the new season!”

Chiefs Kingdom Goes Wild
Chiefs fans have gone into a frenzy over the new anthem. Hashtags #ChiefsForever and #SwiftForChiefs quickly trended on X, with thousands of posts expressing excitement. One fan wrote, “Taylor Swift just made us the team with the best anthem in the NFL! Thank you for loving the Chiefs as much as we do!”

Travis Kelce, who has been in the spotlight thanks to his relationship with Swift, couldn’t hide his joy. Speaking to reporters before OTAs today, he beamed, “I listened to the song all night. Taylor is incredible. She knows how to get the team and fans fired up!”

Impact on the 2025 Season
The Chiefs, back-to-back AFC champions, are entering the 2025 season with ambitions of reclaiming the Super Bowl title after their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX. Chiefs Forever isn’t just a song—it’s become a new spiritual symbol, expected to echo through GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium during every home game.

Head coach Andy Reid voiced his support: “We’re thrilled to have Taylor in Chiefs Kingdom. This song will be a huge motivator for the players and fans.” Rumors suggest the team plans to incorporate the anthem into pre-game rituals, with potential plans for a live performance by Swift at a key home game.

Swift and the Chiefs: A Growing Bond

She’s frequently spotted at games cheering for Kelce, and her presence has brought massive media value to the NFL—estimated at $9.6 million in the 2024-2025 season. The release of Chiefs Forever further cements her connection to the team, endearing her even more to fans.
