Swifties have been trading – often hundreds of – the bright and colorful beaded bracelets at her concerts.
Several stars have also joined in on the bracelets fun, including Swift’s boyfriend Travis, who was seen rocking friendship bracelets at the Cannes Lions Festival in France in June.
The Kansas City Chiefs player previously admitted he once put his number on his bracelet to catch her eye before they began dating.
Most recently Dave Portnoy made it to Swift’s concert in Miami on Saturday night, and shared a photo of himself wearing a huge collection of friendship bracelets at Hard Rock Stadium.
Portnoy was the latest famous face to attend Swift’s Eras Tour in Miami this weekend after the likes of Tom Brady, Serena Williams and Jason Kelce enjoyed Friday’s show.
Kelce, the brother of Swift’s boyfriend Travis, left fans in stitches after a photo of him ‘sleeping’ in the stands at Hard Rock Stadium went viral.
Jason headed to Hard Rock Stadium with wife Kylie and their daughters Wyatt, 5, and Elliotte, 3, to support the songstress at the first of her three Miami shows this weekend. Mom Donna also joined them at the concert.
Yet as Taylor belted out some of her greatest hits in front of thousands of adoring fans, Travis’ big bro appeared to be getting some shut-eye in the stands.
Swift finally resumed her worldwide Eras Tour on Friday night after a two-month break, with 16 more shows to come over the next seven weeks.
