On Monday, Taylor Swift won't be supporting her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, in the VIP suite.

At Arrowhead Stadium, Travis and the Kansas City Chiefs will take on his brother, Jason Kelce, and the Philadelphia Eagles.

According to reports, Taylor intended to go to the game, which would have been the first time that Travis' parents, Donna and Ed Kelce, and Andrea Swift, her mother, would have met.

However, Taylor's Eras Tour show in Brazil was forced to be postponed on Saturday because of "extreme temperatures." Only a few hours before the event was scheduled to start, a decision was made.

She won't be present for the big game because the concert was rescheduled for Monday. It's unclear if Swift's parents will attend the game this time around or if they need to schedule a meeting for a later time.

Swift's initial itinerary was for a three-night engagement at Rio de Janeiro's Estadio Nilton Santos, which ran from Friday through Sunday.

This would allow her to return to the United States in time for the game, and then head back to Brazil for her three-show run in São Paulo beginning on November 24. But the cancellation on Saturday completely rearranged that itinerary.

The vocalist of Midnights announced on Instagram on Saturday that she had decided to postpone the performance while in her dressing area within the arena. "I'm writing from the stadium's dressing room.

The severe temperatures in Rio have led to the decision to postpone tonight's event," she wrote in a handwritten statement that she published on her Instagram Story. "The safety and well-being of my fans, fellow performers, and crew has to and always will come first."

One day after a fan passed away on Friday, just moments before the show, there has been a postponement.

The "Lavender Haze" singer expressed her "devastation" at learning about the fan's passing prior to going on stage.

Not being able to discuss it from the podium, she continued, saying she was "overwhelmed by grief."

Swift posted a handwritten letter on her Instagram Story, stating, "I can't believe I'm writing these words but it is with a shattered heart that I say we lost a fan earlier tonight before my show."

"I can't even tell you how devastated I am by this. There's very little information I have other than the fact that she was so incredibly beautiful and far too young."

She added, "I want to say now I feel this loss deeply and my broken heart goes out to her family and friends. This is the last thing I ever thought would happen when we decided to bring this tour to Brazil."
