The Red singer is known for her complicated dating history, which included numerous high-profile members of the entertainment industry, such as Harry Styles, Taylor Lautner, and Jake Gyllenhall, to name a few. Fast forward to the present, she’s been in the headlines ever since rumors of her possibly dating NFL star player Travis Kelce.

All three of them had a grand time vibing to her music.
2. Nate Sudfeld

In a video released on his team’s official Instagram account, Sudfeld confessed a list of his favorite songs belonging to Swift’s hit song lists.
