Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce's Arrival at Neon Carnival Pushes 20 A-Listers to Back of VIP

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce stole the spotlight at the Neon Carnival after-party on Saturday night.

While Paris Hilton often earns the title "Queen of Coachella," Swift and Kelce enjoyed the royal treatment at the event.

During Anderson Paak's performance, the hotel heiress, along with her husband Carter Reum and their friends, were seen partying on a VIP platform near the stage. In the middle of the lively evening, Hilton caught attention as she danced energetically alongside Kyle Richards from Real Housewives and Lauren Sanchez, the fiancée of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos.

As the night progressed, the rest of the crowd departed the platform before the clock struck 2 am. However, Hilton and her companions continued their dance-filled partying, only to be ushered off the VIP area near the stage by security personnel.

According to a source who spoke to The Sun, "All of a sudden about 20 people were ushered to the end of the platform, and seemed to be moved to make way for a big arrival."

The insider went on to say, "They were all seen clambering down the stairs and into a dark VIP bar area as more than five security guards started prepping the tables and getting themselves into position."

The source said there was an obvious anticipation of an "A-list celebrity's" arrival. However, initially, few caught on as Kelce made his way to the platform unaccompanied, settling down before being surrounded by security personnel.

"[Swift] then joined him with Ice Spice and some members of their team, but it took a while for anyone in the crowd to clock on she was in the VIP section."

Observing the scene, the source noted a lively atmosphere with drinks flowing, laughter filling the air, and affectionate moments shared.

News spread rapidly through the audience that Swift was close by, causing DJ James Kennedy to start performing one of the star's popular songs. Excited fans leaped with joy, attempting to capture a photo of the duo.

As the night unfolded at the grand Coachella after-party, Swift engaged in hushed conversations with the group, casually enjoying a beverage while opting to remain seated and low-key. Upon her and her beau's arrival at the VIP platform around 2:29 am, Swift and Kelce, who have been in a relationship since September 2023, enjoyed an hour of merriment and drinks with their companions.
