2024 VMAs Highlight: Users Notice Taylor Swift ‘Doesn’t Look like Herself’ in Checked Corset & Train

Taylor Swift’s check corset and train ensemble at the 2024 VMAs became an instant focal point on social media, drawing mixed reactions from fans. The outfit, which combined a structured corset with a dramatic train, was a departure from her usual sleek and sophisticated red carpet looks.

As Swift walked the red carpet, the unconventional choice of the checked pattern caught the eye of fashion enthusiasts and casual viewers alike. However, it wasn’t just the outfit that sparked conversation.

Many viewers commented on Swift’s appearance, noting that something seemed different about the star. One user plainly stated, “She doesn’t look like herself,” echoing a sentiment that appeared across various social media platforms.

Another commented, “T Swift with the boob job, man times have changed,” fueling speculation that her altered look might be due to cosmetic enhancements.

While some felt her look was almost unrecognizable, others took a lighter approach. One fan quipped, “She looks like a wax figure of herself 😮.” Fans seemed to fall into two camps: those who praised her bold outfit and those who criticized it, alongside speculating about her appearance.

One particularly disappointed fan remarked, “I love her, but obvious nose job. That’s disappointing,” drawing attention to what some believed was a noticeable change in her facial features.

Not everyone was critical, though. Many took to social media to share their appreciation for the uniqueness of her outfit. “I actually dig this outfit! Not the same as everyone else!”�one user commented, pointing out how her fashion choice stood apart from the typical red carpet looks.

Another fan expressed similar sentiments, saying, “This lowkey looks really good,” while another humorously added, “I’m digging this outfit. Looks amazing and also very Hufflepuffy,” referencing the checked pattern’s resemblance to the Hogwarts house colors from the “Harry Potter” series.

But not all were fans of Swift’s team. “Whoever dresses her needs to be let go,” another commenter quipped, clearly not impressed by the bold fashion statement. The divided opinions only fueled the ongoing conversation online.

This isn’t the first time this week she’s been the subject of speculation. Earlier, she was seen with her boyfriend at the US Open, which fueled pregnancy rumors.

The music icon and football star Travis Kelce, 34, exuded style and couple goals at the US Open on September 8. However, it was not their public displays of affection and joyful energy that captured online attention, but how Taylor’s physique looked in the dress she wore for the event.

Taylor opted for a summery look to watch the Men’s Singles Final match between Taylor Fritz (of team U.S.A.) and Jannik Sinner (of team Italy). She sported a red and white checkered dress called the “Sora Linen Dress” from Reformation.

This garment, which is purchasable online for $248, has a fitted bodice and thin straps that can either be worn off the shoulders or on top of them. Taylor paired her dress with chic black shades, light jewelry, and brown heels.

Travis, on the other hand, donned Gucci attire, which included a white golf shirt, a matching cardigan with the signature red and green Gucci stripes running along each side, and a light beige Gucci bucket hat. He completed his ensemble with white shorts and brown loafers.

In addition to online photos of the duo, who were also seen with fellow famous pals Brittany and Patrick Mahomes, video footage of Travis and Taylor at the event was also published.

One video shared on X by US Open Tennis displayed Travis and Taylor entering the event hand-in-hand and looking around the space. “In a tennis era 🤩. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce arrive at the US Open,” reads the account’s tweet alongside the video.

Another video the US Open shared showed the lovebirds belting out the lyrics to “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness. Footage displayed Taylor and Travis having the time of their lives as they sang to each other from their viewing box. “@taylorswift and @killatrav believe in a thing called love 💙🎸,” captioned the US Open.

A video from LatinUS showed another tender moment shared between the couple, where Taylor was seen swaying her hips to a song as Travis held onto her and bobbed his head to the beat.

In another moment from the same video, Brittany and Patrick were spotted next to the footballer and singer, who planted a sweet peck on Travis’ cheek.

Upon seeing all the media of Travis and Taylor at the tennis event, netizens couldn’t help but notice something about Taylor’s belly. Many speculated that the “Lover” singer may have a little bun in the oven.

“She looks pregnant 🤰 ❤️,”�asserted an Instagrammer while another questioned, “Is she pregnant?!”�Someone else stated, “That GIRL is pregnant lol.” “Is Taylor Swift pregnant? She’s so thin, but with a slight belly,”�noted an X user.

Seemingly making a joke about Travis’ physique, an observer asked, “When is Taylor Swift going to excitedly announce that Travis Kelce is pregnant with their child?”�Other people were just delighted to see Taylor happy regardless of whether she may be expecting or not.

A fan said, “Okay belly either she’s full or pregnant either way I’m happy for her ☺️.” “Taylor looks so happy!”�exclaimed another admirer. Echoing a similar sentiment, someone else swooned, “Ok… they’re officially too cute! It’s way too much fun to watch Taylor Swift in love.”

While Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have yet to confirm or deny the swirling pregnancy rumors, it has not stopped fans from making speculations and comments.

Mere days before her and Travis’ appearance at the US Open, Taylor found herself, yet again, at the center of public discourse over her physical appearance in an outfit many were unimpressed with.

Taylor donned this widely-debated outfit when she showed up to support Travis at the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Baltimore Ravens on September 5. She made a stylish entrance at Arrowhead Stadium, wearing a chic Medusa ’95 Versace denim corset top paired with bold thigh-high red Giuseppe Zanotti boots and a sleek Louis Vuitton handbag.

Netizens who saw online pictures of Taylor at the game didn’t hold back their opinions. One fan hinted at a possible pregnancy with a pregnant emoji. They mentioned, “She’s getting thick 👀 … 🤰?”

Another criticized, “So tacky! Can she not get a fashion consultant!”�Someone else echoed, “With all her money one would think she could have had her stylist pick out a better outfit.”

However, not everyone agreed with the negativity. One fan adored the look, commenting, “Such a cute outfit.” Another came to her defense, slamming critics with, “Can’t believe some people say she ‘put on too much weight.’ She looks better like this than she did as a stick figure.”

Appreciation for Taylor’s appearance continued with a fan praising, “Definitely find her more attractive with some extra meat on her bones. Never liked the twig physique.”�Lastly, another admirer kept it simple and positive by saying, “She’s beautiful.”

Taylor seemed to have enjoyed herself thoroughly. Once inside the stadium, she settled into her usual spot in Travis’ luxury suite, seated alongside his parents, Ed and Donna Kelce.

Videos captured her and Ed bonding during the gripping NFL game, as they chatted and shared laughs, clearly at ease in each other’s company.

In another clip, Taylor was seen standing and clapping enthusiastically, showing her unwavering encouragement for her boyfriend from the sidelines.

In another series of pictures shared on Instagram, Taylor was captured in action, shouting passionately and fully immersed in the game.

Pictures show her and Travis’s dad standing and cheering with visible emotion on their faces. Their shared enthusiasm reflected both their love for the game and their support for Travis.

After the Kansas City Chiefs’ victory over the Baltimore Ravens, Travis and Taylor were spotted leaving Arrowhead Stadium together.

The couple looked both satisfied and in love as they walked hand-in-hand, sharing a tender moment of joy. With their relationship constantly scrutinized by the public, Taylor and Travis’ outings have frequently gone viral. In July, their date night photos took the internet by storm for numerous reasons.

Eagle-eyed observers discussed certain physical aspects of the pics they noticed. Like recently, many asserted their beliefs that Taylor may have a little bun in the oven like her friend Brittany.

Enjoying a night out on the streets of London, Hollywood power couple Taylor and Travis were spotted out with their friends. Endearing couple snaps shared by their loved ones on July 16 prompted a wave of comments from social media users, who couldn’t help but speculate a few things concerning the duo.

Photos posted on Instagram by Summitt Hogue and Brittany reveal that the “Blank Space” artist and Kansas City tight-end were living it up in Europe with their friends.

In addition to Summitt and Brittany, the couple was joined by Brittany’s husband, Kansas City quarterback Patrick, and Summitt’s wife, Miranda Hogue.

Summitt’s carousel post on Instagram showed all the fun that was had on their trip, from spending time in nature reserves and on beaches with his wife and adorable daughters to taking a helicopter ride with Patrick.

The fifth picture in Summit’s post displayed a beautiful group shot of him, Miranda, Brittany, Patrick, and of course, Travis and Taylor. The famous pair stood in the middle of the other two couples and Travis placed his right arm around Taylor’s shoulders.

For that particular evening’s affairs, the “Bad Blood” singer donned a pretty light-blue dress designed by the iconic fashion house Vivienne Westwood. The garment is called the “Sunday gathered cotton midi dress,” and costs a whopping $1,010.

Sticking with Vivienne Westwood, Taylor paired her designer dress with a striking purple handbag shaped like a heart. Dubbed the “Josephine Heart Crossbody,” Taylor’s croc-embossed leather bag is listed on the brand’s online store for $721.35 (€660). She also wore yellow block heels.

More images shared in Brittany’s carousel post depict additional memories that were created on the European voyage. Apart from sweet photos of the doting mom posing with her adorable babies and husband, Patrick, Brittany also included snaps showing Taylor and Travis.

One striking image showed Brittany and Taylor sharing a side embrace as their beaus posed for the camera behind them. In this photo, Taylor wore the same outfit she was seen wearing in Summitt’s photo.

Travis sported a chic beige co-ord set and a baseball cap. Another photo showed Brittany and Taylor hugging again, as Taylor placed a peck on Brittany’s head.

“What a time #Europe,” penned Summitt in the caption of his post while Brittany captioned, “London & Amsterdam, a time was had🤍.” Upon spotting Travis and Taylor in both Brittany and Summitt’s Instagram pictures, people spoke out about what they saw.

Some social media users alluded to the fact that they were uncomfortable with where Travis chose to place his hand on his girlfriend’s body. In this regard, an Instagrammer wrote, “Swifties take a closer look at this guy …. Yikes 😱.”

Similarly, another echoed, “Looks to me like she was trying to move his hand to her waist. I don’t think it’s cute, I think it’s cringey. 🤮👎.”

Some people focused their attention on Taylor’s dress, criticizing her fashion sense. “Why do her dresses always look like a moo moo my grandma would wear?”�questioned an observer while another simply asserted, “Taylor needs [to] fire her stylist.”

Others analyzed Brittany’s couple shot where Travis was seen placing one of his hands on his lower stomach. “Travis is cradling his lower abdomen and pointing to himself. What [does] that [mean]?”�pondered a social media user. Someone else pleaded, “Travy get [Tay] preggers we need little besties for life.”

Staying on the topic of pregnancy, an admirer expressed, “Listen, you and Taylor are so cute!!! I love it lady! Please have a babygirl and name her Goldie.” “Brittany & […] Taylor are both pregnant…”�stated someone else.

While Taylor has neither confirmed nor denied speculations that she and Travis are expecting, her dear friend, Brittany, has confirmed that she will soon be a mom of three.
