Taylor Swift was seen exploring the New Orleans nightlife on Saturday, just a night prior to her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s important Super Bowl game.

After enjoying a lovely dinner with Patrick and Brittany Mahomes on Friday, Taylor decided to experience more of the lively atmosphere of the Big Easy by visiting the Gianna restaurant.

Accompanied by some close friends, including her music pals, the HAIM sisters, Taylor made a stylish entrance that caught the attention of onlookers.

But one notable absence from the evening was Blake Lively —who, as revealed by DailyMail, found herself mysteriously left off Taylor’s Super Bowl guest list amid Blake’s ongoing It Ends With Us saga. 

Despite the drama, Taylor appeared in high spirits and was dressed to impress in a chic fur-trimmed jacket and a sassy black mini dress, 

Her leggy look, perfectly paired with high-heeled black boots, had fans stopping and staring as she led her gal pals into the restaurant, with the crowd buzzing in excitement as the queen of pop graced the scene. 

On Friday, shock footage emerged of Swift and Kelce heading out for dinner at trendy French restaurant Lilette just two days out from Kansas City’s crucial showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles.

While most players typically keep a low profile in their hotels before the big game, Travis decided to enjoy some of New Orleans’ best food and grabbed a bite with his popstar girlfriend the night before the Super Bowl.

However, a new video captured outside a restaurant on Magazine Street shows the couple wasn’t alone. 

Kelce’s longtime Chiefs teammate, Patrick, and his wife Brittany were spotted leaving Lilette shortly after, with a clip circulating online showing them walking to a taxi.

Patrick, dressed in an all-black outfit and white cap, was led by security, while Brittany rocked full Chiefs gear, sporting a red coat and matching boots for their double date.

Although there’s no indication that Kelce and Mahomes broke any rules by heading out on a pre-Super Bowl double date, their appearance was still surprising given how close it was to the big game.

Before last year’s Super Bowl in Las Vegas, Kelce stressed the importance of staying focused and laying low in the days leading up to the game. 

‘We’ve got one week, we do what we need to do then we can party in Vegas for the rest of our lives,’ he said.

When they were seen arriving at Lilette on Friday evening, some fans even dismissed the footage of Travis and Taylor, claiming someone else had been mistaken for the Chiefs tight end.

It’s unclear exactly when Swift arrived in New Orleans, but Brittany Mahomes was already there on Friday.

Meanwhile, Blake is reportedly taking a backseat after her friend Taylor left her off the guest list for the 2025 Super Bowl, according to exclusive information from DailyMail.com.

The two friends, who have been close for over a decade, have found their bond under scrutiny recently, especially after Swift became involved in Lively’s messy legal battle with It Ends With Us co-star/director Justin Baldoni. 

Baldoni, in his explosive $400 million defamation lawsuit, accused Lively of using Swift’s name to manipulate the 2024 film’s direction, even referring to her as a ‘dragon’ in an alleged text message.

An insider shared with DailyMail.com on Friday that Lively, 37, never had plans to attend Super Bowl LIX, as she didn’t want her ongoing drama to ‘overshadow’ Swift and her boyfriend Travis’ big night.

‘Taylor is not shading Blake or trying to teach her a lesson. It isn’t like that. Even if Taylor did invite Blake, Blake wouldn’t come,’ the source explained. 

‘She would never want to make Taylor’s big night — where she gets to watch the love of her life play in another Super Bowl — about her. Blake would never want to overshadow Taylor.’
