Taylor Swift Breaks Social Media Silence Supporting Kobe Bryant’s Daughter

Taylor Swift ended a months-long social media and public hiatus by liking a TikTok video posted by Natalia Bryant, daughter of the late Kobe Bryant, celebrating her graduation from the University of Southern California. The video featured Natalia and her friends lip-syncing to Swift's song "Nothing New (Taylor's Version)," with lyrics reflecting on growth and change, which Swift's fans saw as a meaningful gesture. Swift has been largely private since her Eras Tour ended in December 2023, spending time with her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce, who has been more active in public. The couple was recently seen celebrating Mother's Day with Kelce's family and Kelce has appeared at various events, including a charity auction where Swift donated a signed guitar. Swift's subtle reemergence on social media sparked excitement among fans anticipating her next public moves, including a likely appearance at the upcoming American Music Awards. The connection between Swift and the Bryant family has a history, with Kobe Bryant having publicly praised Swift and her music before his passing.
