Taylor Swift touched down in Los Angeles on Saturday ahead of her final journey to Las Vegas today amid NFL rules preventing her from seeing Travis Kelce the night before the Super Bowl.
Swift wrapped up her final Eras Tour concert in Japan on Friday night and began her mad rush 5,500 miles across the globe to watch boyfriend Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs face the San Francisco 49ers at Super Bowl LVIII.
Yet instead of heading straight from Tokyo to Vegas, the pop superstar made a pit stop to head to her LA home on Saturday night, before she embarks on an hour-long flight to Sin City later today.
And as revealed by TMZ, Swift likely did so as she would not have been allowed to link up with Kelce the night before his big game.
NFL rules forbid players from staying with their wives or girlfriends on the evenings before a game, rules which have been ramped up on Super Bowl week.

Chiefs and 49ers stars would therefore have been in lockdown through the later hours of Saturday night, meaning Swift would not have been able to see her man upon arrival in Vegas – where she would have touched down at around 4pm.
That would have given her just a handful of hours to get through customs and spend time with Travis before the curfew kicked in.

Superstar tight end Kelce has been building up to the Super Bowl from Las Vegas all week
Swift made the dash back from Japan following a busy week that took in four sold out performances at the Tokyo Dome – the final one on Saturday night.
The pop billionaire is also fresh from winning a record-breaking fourth ‘album of the year’ Grammy – handed out at a glitzy ceremony in LA while Kelce, 34, was arriving in Las Vegas ahead of the Super Bowl.
Swift and Kelce’s families will be sharing a Super Bowl suite this Sunday, a new report has confirmed, after the Kansas City star shelled out ‘well over $1million’ to reserve the seats.
Kelce joked earlier this week about ‘losing all the money‘ to make sure his family and friends could watch the game.
And according to TMZ, he has made good on that promise with Taylor’s parents Andrea and Scott, his brother Austin and his girlfriend Sydney set to sit with Travis’ parents Donna and Ed, brother Jason and sister-in-law Kylie.
Taylor is expected to be at the game as well, though it is unclear whether she’ll be in the suite that Kelce paid for or if she’ll be sitting separately with friends.
