Fans anxiously waited for Taylor Swift to attend Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs' first regular-season game against the LA Chargers on Friday. However, the "Blank Space" singer ended up missing out on the clash. The Chiefs lost the game 27-21 at the Neo Química Arena in São Paulo, Brazil.

But it wasn't until Saturday that the apparent reason behind Swift's absence from the Brazil game came to light through a report by The Daily Mail. An unnamed source told the publication that she wanted to save the massive cost of security for her throughout the trip, which led to the decision to miss attending Kelce's game.

"The travel and the cost and most importantly the security," the source reported. "Which goes along with the aforementioned travel and cost are all the reasons Taylor didn't go to the game to see Travis play. She would have wanted her security team there a few days ahead to make sure everything was OK."

After adding up all the expenses related to travel and security, there would have been a "tremendous cost" that Swift, who is worth $1.6 billion per Forbes, had to pay to be in Brazil for a short trip. Instead of that, the "All Too Well" singer stayed back and enjoyed watching the game from her comfort zone.

"It ended up being the smart thing to do, it was easier not to move mountains to watch one game," the source further added.
