There were no Taylor Swift sightings Friday at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival during the buzzy sets by Swift's pals Lana Del Rey, Sabrina Carpenter, and Suki Waterhouse, but the internet practically broke Saturday when the pop superstar and her pro footballer boyfriend, Travis Kelce, were finally spotted at the fest supporting two other famous members of Swift's squad.

The power couple was first seen kissing and cuddling in the Mojave Tent stage wings during the performance by Bleachers, the Springsteenian indie-rock combo fronted by Swift's frequent collaborator and producer, Jack Antonoff.

About an hour later, Travis and Taylor were hanging in the Sahara Tent with Sabrina Carpenter and her boyfriend, Saltburn actor Barry Keoghan, to check out the set by Swift’s “Karma” remix partner, Ice Spice.

Ice Spice introduced that song with a “shoutout to Taylor Motherf---ing Swift,” at which point a proud Kelce smooched Swift on the neck.

One particularly observant Swiftie gleefully pointed that Taylor’s onetime nemesis, Justin Bieber, was also in the Sahara Tent, standing not very far from Swift as Ice Spice performed the fittingly titled “Karma” — which is widely believed to be about Bieber’s ex-manager, Scooter Braun.

Braun drew Swift’s wrath in 2019 when he purchased her former record label, Big Machine, which meant he now owned the rights to her back catalog — a business deal that Swift called her “worst case scenario.” At that time Braun also managed the artist then known as Kanye West, and Bieber made light of the ongoing Ye/Swift feud in his Instagram Stories. Although Bieber later apologized for his “distasteful and insensitive” joke, he still defended Braun, who had been his manager since 2008. In August 2023, Bieber and Braun parted ways professionally.

“Oh I know he’s mad as hell,” the Taylor fan posted after spotting Bieber in Ice Spice’s audience.

Along with the sets by Ice Spice and Bleachers, Travis and Taylor caught the Outdoor Theatre show by acclaimed British electronic collective Jungle. Coachella Saturday's lineup also boasted a much-hyped reunion by ‘90s punk/pop/ska icons No Doubt and a closing main stage set by Tyler, the Creator.
