Taylor Swift has officially reached a new level of stardom: photobombing herself. Yes, you read that correctly. Taylor, in a surreal “Did I just see what I think I saw?” moment, managed to crash her own image, and honestly, we’re not even mad about it.
It all went down during the latest episode of “Taylor Swift Does Football Now” on Monday night (October 7), when the pop queen made her grand appearance at her new favorite hobby—watching Travis Kelce, her alleged boyfriend, play for the Kansas City Chiefs. Amidst the chaos of touchdowns, cheers, and pretzel mustard dilemmas, a casual Instagram story was born. And it starred none other than Taylor Swift… and Taylor Swift.
The hilarious Insta-moment happened on Chariah Gordon’s story—because, of course, the WAG (that’s “Wives and Girlfriends” for those playing along at home) of Mecole Hardman, one of the Chiefs’ stars, just had to capture the victory vibes. As the ladies stood there, basking in post-game glory, something absolutely ridiculous was happening in the background: a massive poster of Taylor from her Eras Tour was gracing the walls of the stadium. Because why wouldn’t there be a larger-than-life Taylor just hanging out at Arrowhead Stadium?
And in this moment of ultimate Taylorception, Chariah innocently asks our football-watching pop icon, “So, how do you feel after the win?”
Swift, being the queen of witty comebacks and casual sass, responds, “No, it’s important that you answer the question this time.” Pure comedy gold.
But wait, it gets better. As the video wraps up, Taylor notices her own face looming in the background like a pop culture ghost and says with a grin, “Sorry for photobombing myself.” Only Taylor could simultaneously be the person and the backdrop. Is she omnipresent? Has she mastered time travel? All signs point to yes.
For those who’ve been keeping score (pun intended), Taylor and Chariah have been quite the dynamic duo at these Chiefs games, regularly providing us with WAGs content that we didn’t know we needed. After each game, Chariah is known for her “game day photo dumps,” and you better believe Taylor’s right there in the mix, hanging with her new squad of football wives like she’s always been one of the gals.
And here’s the cherry on top: rumor has it Chariah might be starring in a new WAGs reality show based around the Kansas City Chiefs’ partners! So get ready, because soon, we might be binge-watching Taylor on yet another screen, adding to her football side quest.
Moral of the story? When you’re Taylor Swift, not even stadium-sized posters of yourself can stop you from being the center of attention… even when you’re trying to lay low at a football game.
