Taylor Swift Dazzles in Red Gown at the 2025 Grammys, Seemingly Honoring Travis Kelce: Photos

Taylor Swift stunned while attending the 2025 Grammy Awards on Sunday, February 2, without her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

Taylor, 35, was looking as glamorous as ever while wearing a bold sparkling red dress, which might have been a nod to Travis’ football team, the Kansas City Chiefs. She flaunted her legs in the short dress, which she accessorized with red high heels and her iconic red lipstick. Additionally, a chain hung near her thigh that featured a “T,” which could have been another tribute to her boyfriend.

Despite being in a relationship with Travis, 35, Taylor noticeably walked the red carpet without her boyfriend. However, Travis had good reason to skip the event as he and the Chiefs are preparing to play in the Super Bowl against the Philadelphia Eagles on February 9.

The “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” singer released her album The Tortured Poets Department in April 2024. Her hard work was recognized when she was nominated for six awards at this year’s ceremony: Record of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Pop Duo/Group Performance and Best Pop Vocal Album.

Taylor couldn’t contain her excitement when she learned about her nominations in November 2024, while she was still in the midst of her iconic Eras tour.

“You guys did something so amazing over the course of the last few months,” Taylor told the crowd during her November 14, 2024, show, gushing about the support her fans had shown. “I just mean what you did with embracing Tortured Poets Department, the album. This is truly blowing my mind because, it’s really emotional for me that this album—I wrote it during The Eras Tour. Like I wrote that album, made that album—all trying to keep it a secret from you guys. And then announced the album.”

She continued, “You guys have just been so wonderful about digging into this album and really understanding where I was coming from. You made it by far the debut week I’ve ever had with an album and you kept that album at number one for nearly four months.”

The “Karma” artist also credited her listeners with helping her achieve her Grammy Award nominations.

“The most recent thing that you did,” Taylor explained. “Because everything that happens is a reflection of the passion you show — is you guys got this album nominated for six Grammys. It’s so wonderful. So thank you.”

Taylor has received a total of 52 Grammy nominations over the course of her career, and with this year’s nomination for Album of the Year, she set a new record for the most nominations in that category with seven.

The “You Need to Calm Down” singer walked away with two Grammys at the 2024 awards ceremony, including the Album of the Year award for Midnights. The 2024 ceremony was also when Taylor surprised fans by announcing she had secretly been working on The Tortured Poets Department for months when she accepted her award for Best Pop Vocal Album.

“OK. This is my 13th grammy. Which is my lucky number, I don’t know if I’ve ever told you that. I wanna say thank you to the fans by telling you a secret that I’ve been keeping from you for the last two years, which is that my brand new album comes out April 19. It’s called The Tortured Poets Department,” Taylor told the audience.
