Fans hoping to see Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce make their red carpet debut at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards are in for a huge disappointment. The list of nominees for the 2024 People’s Choice Awards dropped on January 11, with Taylor bagging nominations in five different categories while her boyfriend Travis has one under his belt. While their respective nominations would avail them another chance to make their first-ever red carpet appearance as a couple, all pointers suggest they would blow it off, like previous opportunities.
Why Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce May Skip the 2024 People’s Choice Awards
Fans were impressed that Taylor Swift’s record-breaking Eras Tour earned her such recognition in various niches. However, many were quick to point out that she may be unavailable to accept her awards if she eventually bagged them come February 18. The reason for this involves her Eras Tour, during which she missed many groundbreaking events this past year.
Notably, the icon would resume the international leg of her Eras tour in Tokyo, Japan, on February 7. The tour would run through Saturday, February 10, with concerts scheduled for each day. She would then jet off to Australia, where she has scheduled concerts from February 16 and is expected to perform in Melbourne, Australia, on February 18, the same date as the PCAs.
Her daring decision to take the Eras tour internationally followed high demands, attracting wild anticipation and high ticket sales. Hence, it is unlikely Taylor Swift would stand up to her fans to attend the 2024 People’s Choice Awards. Her actions in preceding years make it even more unlikely, as the star has a reputation for snubbing award presentation shows.
This Isn’t Her First Rodeo
Since her last appearance in 2013, Taylor Swift has yet to attend the People’s Choice Awards, even with various nominations over the years, and 2024 may be no exception. As for her partner Travis, who received a nod in the Athlete of the Year Category, he would likely step up in support of his girlfriend for her milestone moment in Tokyo. While this would be Travis Kelce’s first time receiving a nomination at the award show, Taylor has up to 17 of these in her name from previous years.
This year, she’s up for five different categories thanks to her record-breaking Eras Tour. They include the Concert Tour of the Year, Social Celebrity of the Year, Pop Artist of the Year, Female Artist of the Year, and a nod in the Movie of the Year category for her Taylor Swift: Eras Tour film.
