Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes pose arm-in-arm after Super Bowl victory

It might have been Taylor Swift's "rookie season" in the NFL, as Jason and Travis Kelce joked in their podcast, but she went all the way.

Swift and Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs' victory at the Super Bowl Feb. 11, the teams' second year in a row. They watched the nail-biter side-by-side (at one point, Swift literally bit her nails).

After the game at Allegiant Stadium, Swift and Mahomes were seen going to Wynn Las Vegas accompanied by Travis Kelce, Swift's boyfriend, and Patrick Mahomes.

The two posed for a picture together at the nightclub. Both were all smiles. Swift was also captured dancing with Travis Kelce to her own music: "Love Story" and "You Belong With Me."

Back in November 2023, Brittany Mahomes made her friendship with Swift Instagram official when she posted a photo of herself posing with Swift, Bell and Paige Buechele, who's the wife of former Chiefs backup quarterback, Shane Buechele.

The photo came two days after the trio were spotted leaving Swift's Tribeca apartment, the same day the Chiefs defeated the Miami Dolphins in the NFL's first-ever match in Germany.

Between Instagram posts and nights out on both coasts, a friendship appears to be blossoming between Swift and the mom of two. Here's what to know.

Following a 46-yard touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes to wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling in the second quarter, Swift and the wife of the quarterback broke out a new handshake in a scene shown on the broadcast.

They started with two slaps with the front of their right hands, followed by two slaps with the back of their hands, and then Swift pulled Brittany Mahomes toward her for a finishing move.

A new BFF handshake was officially born, although it looked like the two had put in some practice beforehand so they could nail it when it came time during the game.

Swift and Brittany Mahomes were also seen cheering together at other parts of the win over the Chargers. Brittany Mahomes was often holding one of her two children with Patrick Mahomes, daughter Sterling, 2, and 11-month-old son, Bronze.

And possibly wore matching jewelry

Brittany Mahomes and Swift appear to have ties that go beyond that gesture. TikToker and gemstone wholesaler Julia Hackman Chafé observed that Swift and Brittany Mahomes appeared to be wearing matching jewelry at the game.

Chafé identified Swift wearing the necklace from Cartier's Juste un Clou collection. Brittany Mahomes had a bracelet from the same collection. Both the necklace and bracelet appear to be shaped like a nail, the Juste un Clou's signature look.

In addition to the Cartier piece, the pop megastar added another new wrinkle on Oct. 22 by wearing one of her signature friendship bracelets that featured a heart and the number 87, which is Kelce’s jersey number.
