Taylor Swift has been so inspiring to her family, friends, and millions of fans across the world. However, this week, the global superstar shared a hint at who inspires her. The singer stepped out in New York City looking comfortable and casual in leisurewear. However, it was her choice of accessories that really caught fans’ attention. In addition to her dark sunglasses and dangling earrings, she also wore a necklace with a Kobe Bryant quote on it.
Photographers snapped pics of Swift in NYC rocking black leggings, sneakers, and a fuzzy jacket. She had her hair pulled back into a ponytail as she headed to the recording studio. Meanwhile, it appeared that the singer was sending a message to her fans and herself when it came to her pendant. “Bet on yourself,” the necklace read, citing the late NBA icon Bryant as the man behind the quote, per Page Six.
Taylor Swift Had a Special Connection to Kobe Bryant
The necklace is part of the Mambacity x ZC collection by Kobe Bryant’s widow, Vanessa Bryant. The proceeds of the profits go to the Mamba and Mambacity Foundation. Fans may remember that Taylor Swift was acquainted with Bryant and his family. He even appeared on stage with her during a Los Angeles concert at Staples Center in 2015.
After Bryant and his daughter, Gianna, were killed in a helicopter crash, Swift was among the many stars to share tributes to the late star. “My heart is in pieces hearing the news of this unimaginable tragedy. I can’t fathom what the families are going through. Kobe meant so much to me and to us all. Sending my prayers, love, and endless condolences to Vanessa and the family and anyone who lost someone on that flight,” she wrote.
Meanwhile, Swifties also noticed that the star’s outfit resembled something that her famous boyfriend, NFL player Travis Kelce, would wear. “Did she borrow that from Travis?” one fan wrote. “That’s a real Travis Kelce outfit,” another agreed.
It looks like Taylor could be headed into her sporty era. As the girlfriend of one of the biggest names in football, she could be ready to step into a new look and mindset. The singer’s known for reinventing herself with each new chapter of her life, so why not now?
