Among Taylor Swift's extensive entourage, which includes over 50 truckers managing staging and costumes and 15 handpicked backup dancers who are well-acquainted with the tour life's festivities, 6 lucky ones get to be really friends with the star, with Swift asking them for relationship advice.

As America begins to see Taylor Swift's continued global tour, now extending into its fourteenth month across Europe, interest remains high. However, it's not just Swift herself enjoying the Mediterranean sun between shows, but her entourage as well.

While predominantly female, the troupe's six male members, boasting chiseled physiques and sun-kissed looks, have garnered their own fans.

The six male backup dancers range from 19 to 35-year-olds, which means the advices Taylor Swift can get from them are diverse. They are Sam McWilliams, 19, Kevin Scheitzbach, 23, Jan Ravnik, 29, Kameron Saunders, 31, Whyley Yoshimura, 35, and Raphael Thomas, 35.

According to a source close to the dancers, exclusively speaking to Daily Mail UK, they're often recognized and admired by fans wherever they go, adding to the tour's allure.

"They cannot go anywhere without being swooned at by adoring fans," a source exclusively shared. "They are recognized almost everywhere they go."

They do valuable work for the star though, not just onstage, but also off it.

While touring, the bond between Swift and her troupe has grown significantly, with Swift often confiding in them as friends, particularly regarding her relationship with Travis Kelce.

Swift's dancers reportedly view being on tour with the star as once-in-a-lifetime adventure. When not dancing while the singer performs, they seize the opportunity to explore each city together, hitting the beaches and local hotspots.

Financially, they're also reaping rewards. Swift is very much known for her generosity to her team and ensures her employees are well-compensated. Reportedly, they can can at least $500,000 from their salaries.

While the report did not say what advice Taylor Swift seeks her dancers for, it's clear that those given must be golden, since she and Travis Kelce are going quite strong in their relationship.

Moreover, speculation about a potential engagement between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce has been mounting, and according to a source from ET, a proposal may be imminent.

The source tells ET, "Taylor and Travis are doing amazing, and their loved ones see an engagement coming sooner than later. They make a great match and there's no question about that."
