Taylor Swift missed the AMAs 2025 for undisclosed reasons.
Taylor Swift Misses 2025 American Music Awards, Plunging Fans into Speculation
The absence of global pop sensation Taylor Swift at the 2025 American Music Awards (AMAs) left fans puzzled about her conspicuous absence from one of the music industry's most prestigious events.
Buzz among Swifties swelled as the Enchanted singer seemed to be hinting, via a series of cryptic posts, about a major announcement she might unveil at the AMAs. However, on the night of May 26, Taylor was nowhere to be seen.
The Missing Taylor Swift: An Explanation
Reports suggest that Swift, aged 35, chose to stand by her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as he prepares for the upcoming NFL season. The couple last appeared together at Harry's Bar & Restaurant in West Palm Beach, Florida, on May 23, three days prior to the AMAs.
While it's feasible for Taylor to have made the journey from West Palm Beach to Los Angeles, she opted to prioritize her time with Kelce instead. The distance between the two locations, approximately 2,324 miles, translates to a flight duration of around 6 hours.
In April, a source revealed that the You Belong With Me songstress and Kelce, also 35, are cherishing their downtime together. The couple is reportedly socializing with friends as well, making the most of their time away from work commitments.
Although there has been no official statement on Swift's AMA absence, it seems that the 14-time Grammy winner is focusing on her personal life, especially after wrapping the recent leg of her record-breaking Eras Tour.
Fan Theories Abound
Several fan theories circulated, proposing that the Reputation singer has reduced her public appearances due to rumors of her engagement to Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce. Others speculate her silence could be linked to the ongoing legal drama involving her former friend Blake Lively and actor Justin Baldoni.
Most fans, however, believe that Taylor is taking a break from the limelight to spend time with her loved one away from the public eye.
