Taylor Swift did not attend Patrick Mahomes’ fundraising auction on Thursday. However, her backing was still very much felt.
A framed platinum record and an original autograph from the superstar pop artist were sold to a lucky bidder, as reported in a post on Instagram by the auction’s organizing team, Optimal Fundraising Group. It remains unclear who acquired the item or the final selling price.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes initiated an annual fundraising event in 2019 to support underprivileged children’s lives. On Thursday, in Kansas City, the NFL MVP winner from last season, along with his spouse Brittany Mahomes, hosted the third edition of these events.
This season, Taylor Swift has gained prominence in the NFL due to stories of her romance with Travis Kelce, the tight end for Kansas City. However, the 12-time Grammy Award winner did not attend Mahomes’ charity gala, as that was the day she began her Eras Tour concert in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Kelce receiʋed plaudits during the fundraising eʋent for reaching a significant career landмark recently, Ƅecoмing the Chiefs’ all-tiмe top receiʋer during the teaм’s Week 9 ʋictory oʋer the Miaмi Dolphins in Gerмany.
Patrick and Brittany Mahoмes donated $615,000 in grants to 19 charitable organizations through the eʋent.
