So, it turns out Chariah Gordon, the fiancée of Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman, has been spilling the tea (or maybe Gatorade?) about Taylor Swift. And, yes, you read that right. Taylor “writes songs that make your ex-boyfriends nervous” Swift. Why? Because they’ve been spotted together in those VIP suites at the Chiefs games, sipping on whatever VIPs sip on — probably sparkling water infused with stardust.
Quick recap: Taylor’s been dating Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce for over a year now. Yes, that’s right — pop princess meets the dude whose name rhymes with “shelf-y.” And Chariah’s here to let us know what Taylor’s really like when the cameras aren’t rolling and the glitter isn’t flying.
“She’s just one of the sweetest people ever… that’s just that,” Chariah told People, basically confirming that Taylor is, in fact, made of rainbows and kitten giggles. But let’s get to the juicy bit — their friendship. Does it involve secret handshakes or synchronized dance routines? Nope. Chariah says she wants to keep their bestie moments “private,” which means we’ll have to shelve our hopes of seeing them duet to “Love Story” at halftime.
As for snapping photos with Taylor, Chariah wants you to know she’s not out here trying to feed the hungry internet trolls. “I am not purposely like, ‘Oh, hey, let me feed them.’” Translation: she’s just trying to live her best life, and if that life happens to involve chilling with T-Swift, so be it. She did, however, sprinkle some love on the Swifties: “They show me nothing but love.” Of course they do, Chariah. Swifties are like Taylor’s personal army, minus the swords but with a lot more tweets.
Now, let’s time-travel back to October 2023, when Chariah innocently posted a photo of herself with Taylor. Little did she know, this wasn’t just any photo — it was a bombshell. “I didn’t know that I was breaking the internet!” Chariah confessed. Kim K would like to have a word, by the way. She thought the snap was a casual “we’re-cute-let’s-post” moment, but nope — it was a seismic event. Fans went wild, the internet gasped, and Wi-Fi networks across the globe probably needed a nap.
And when Chariah realized her photo had gone viral, she understandably freaked out. “It kind of made me feel like, in a sense, I did something wrong,” she admitted. Don’t worry, Chariah — it wasn’t the photo, it was the sheer power of Taylor Swift being in it. Even if she were holding a sandwich, it would still go platinum.
Chariah just wants to post cute pictures without it turning into a worldwide moment. So, if you see another photo of her and Taylor at a game, be prepared — the internet might just break (again). And if it does, we’ll all just scroll through the chaos, sipping our own sparkling water, wondering if we should start rewatching Friday Night Lights.
