Taylor Swift's company buy giant friendship bracelet for 13k
Taylor Swift has spent $13,000 on a giant friendship bracelet. The Bad Blood hitmaker's personal services company, Firefly Entertainments Inc., have reportedly splashed out on the 140-foot-long inflatable decoration which was draped over New Orleans' Caesars Superdome during her Eras Tour, local outlet 4WWL have revealed. The outlet explained the information came from the Louisiana Stadium and Exposition District, the state board that manages the dome and is expected to approve the purchase during a board meeting. Firefly will be responsible for collecting, shipping, and delivering the bracelet - which read 'Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour' in white beads, with colourful gems in between the words - according to the purchase agreement. Shawn and Jules Kolodny of Kolossal Arts designed the piece and are thrilled Taylor is giving the bracelet a permanent home. They told Us Weekly in a statement: 'It's so fitting that the final trade of the giant friendship bracelet was to Taylor — she's the reason it exists. We love that it's with her now.' Making and trading friendship bracelets has been a favourite pastime of Taylor's fans at her concerts and is inspired by a line in her 2022 song 'You're on Your Own, Kid', which reads: 'So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it.' During one of her three shows in New Orleans last October, Taylor praised the giant bracelet. She told her audience: 'You've created traditions. You've created this mass movement of joy every time we play a show. And it makes me so proud, it really does. 'I just showed up one day and you guys were trading friendship bracelets and I was like, 'That's cool,' and now there is a giant friendship bracelet on the outside of this stadium.' 'Which is so nice of them to do for us — but it's even nicer of you guys to create things that went so far beyond what I ever expected for this tour.' Following the New Orleans concerts, the giant friendship bracelet was moved to other tour stops in other cities.

Taylor Swift trend takes over Chiefs TikTok as Rashee Rice's bracelet moment goes viral
Chiefs' Taylor Swift TikTok moment (Image via Getty) Taylor Swift's influence on the NFL continues to grow — and now it's made its way back into the Kansas City Chiefs locker room. In a recent TikTok posted by the team, wide receiver Rashee Rice is seen casually sporting friendship bracelets. What made fans buzz was the deliberate camera zoom-in, clearly spotlighting the accessories. It was a small detail, but Swifties picked up on it instantly. From lyric to locker room — How Swift's line sparked a football trend The friendship bracelet phenomenon stems from Swift's Eras Tour, inspired by a lyric from her song You're on Your Own, Kid: 'So, make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it.' That single line sparked a viral fan ritual of making and exchanging bracelets at shows. As Swift's presence at NFL games expanded, the trend found its way into stadiums — especially with her highly publicized connection to Travis Kelce. Online reactions poured in after the TikTok dropped. One fan wrote, 'The way the Chiefs have adopted friendship bracelets will never not make me smile.' Another added, 'Friendship bracelets… oh they love it (and her) so much.' A third said, 'The friendship bracelet being a piece of Chiefs lore.' The sentiment was clear — the blending of football and fandom is resonating deeply with audiences. Travis and Taylor's connection keeps driving the narrative The bracelets also harken back to the moment Kelce revealed he once tried giving Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number at her concert. Though he couldn't meet her at the time, the gesture became a lighthearted and widely shared story in their early relationship. Since then, Swift has attended several Chiefs games, with her appearances drawing massive media coverage and fanfare.
