The romance between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift has taken the world by storm, and at this point, there is absolutely no avoiding it.

And while some may be focused on how often the singer shows up during an NFL broadcast or the logistics of her making it to Las Vegas in time for the Super Bowl after finishing a concert in Japan, others can't help but point out their relationship is something straight out of a romantic comedy.


Some believe the plot of this rom-com is all too familiar.

It started when the Grammy winner had to attend the Golden Globes on January 7 instead of cheering on her beau and the rest of the Kansas City Chiefs, as she was nominated for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement for her film Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.

A user on X, formerly Twitter, pointed out her predicament eerily paralleled the storyline of High School Musical, in which Gabriella's academic decathlon took place at the same time as Troy's championship basketball game.

And when Taylor was there to rush the field and celebrate the Chief's victory over the Baltimore Ravens, sending them to the Super Bowl, fans took notice.

Further proving their point is the fact that Swift has a concert in Japan the night before Kelce plays for another NFL championship.

All the buzz surrounding the HSM plot even had Gabriella herself—or Vanessa Hudgens, who played her in the films—chiming in.

In response to an Entertainment Tonight post on the subject shared on Instagram, the actor commented:

"Hilarious"

And they completely agreed with her that fans' observations are both hilarious and accurate.

We guess we'll have to wait until February 11 to see how it all plays out for Troy and Gabriella Taylor and Travis.

Susan Collins Dragged After GOP PAC Boosts Her Campaign In The Wrong Portland

On July 4, 1786, the city of Portland, Maine, was officially founded with its newly-minted name. Almost 60 years later in 1845, Maineiac Francis Pettygrove won a coin toss against Asa Lovejoy and named their soon-to-be incorporated city in Oregon Portland after the largest city in his home state of Maine.

Since then, Portland, Oregon, has swelled to a city of approximately 675,000 people while its namesake boasts a population of just 70,000. In 2026, when people hear Portland, they think of Oregon instead of the original city in Maine.

CNN Just Visited A Struggling MAGA Store—And It Spells Bad News For Trump

CNN correspondent Elle Reeve returned to Whitey Taylor's Trump Town USA in Boones Mill, Virginia, for the first time since visiting in 2023, and her segment shows that business for the Donald Trump-themed shop has collapsed as more MAGA followers break away from the president.

Reeve, in a segment for Anderson Cooper 360, reported that "things aren't what they used to be" for the store. She spoke with Taylor, who revealed that the store, which used to make $12,000 to $15,000 in sales per day now only makes between $1,500 - $2,000 per day. On occasion, Taylor will hit $3,000 in sales if he's lucky.

JD Vance Blasted After Sharing His Absolutely Mind-Numbing Definition Of 'Socialism'

According to Merriam-Webster, socialism broadly refers to economic and political systems centered on collective or government ownership and control of the means of production.

Not exactly a concept requiring a Ph.D. to explain. One would think Vice President JD Vance, a Yale Law School graduate whose party practically uses the word as punctuation, could manage a working definition.
