Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will not be among the celebs walking the red-carpeted stairs for the 2024 Costume Institute Ball in NYC, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly.
“Taylor and Travis are not going to the Met Gala. They passed,” the source says. “They might go as it gets closer, but for now, they are not going.”

She elevated her look with strappy heels as she served as a co-chair for the event, where she seemingly met ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn.

She previously donned a pastel pink Oscar de la Renta ensemble at the 2014 ball, which was themed “Charles James: Beyond Fashion.” Her gown featured a scoop neckline, fitted skirt, glamorous train and a bow on her back.

While the couple has not yet hit a red carpet event together, they’ve shown off their complementary street style. In October 2023, they attended a Saturday Night Live afterparty. Swift, for her part, rocked a Versace crop top and plaid coat as Kelce wore a patterned jacket and brown pants.
