Taylor Swift’s instantly iconicred coatis getting a furry thumbs up from another red icon.
The “Karma” singer, 33, stepped out to theChiefs-Packers gamein Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Sunday night to cheer on beauTravis Kelcewearing a chic Stella McCartney teddy coat. Her vibrant outerwear — which she paired with a black turtleneck top, black pleated skirt and Stuart Weitzmanover-the-knee boots— caught the eye of a famousSesame Streetresident.
On Monday,Elmogave his stamp of approval to the coat, whose textured fabric bears a striking resemblance to the Muppet’s own distinctive red fur.
“Call it what you want, but Elmo thinks that coat is so gorgeous, Ms. @taylorswift13!” read apostfrom the official Elmo account on X (formerly Twitter), which included a photo of Swift in the look.
Red coats seem to be a trend-of-the-moment among the partners of the Kansas City Chiefs players. Sharp-eyed fans on social media noted that Swift’s coatappears nearly identical to the red coatthat a then-pregnantBrittany Mahomeswas seen wearing several times last year while attending Chiefs games in support of her husband, quarterbackPatrick Mahomes.
Chiefs tight end Blake Bell’s wife Lyndsay also has been spotted recently in a similar coat.

At one point during the Chiefs-Packers game, Swift wore her red coat lower around her arms as she clasped her hands together during some particularly tense on-field action. Mahomes, 28, who sat beside her in the stadium box, coordinated with her friend in a black Chiefs letterman jacket with red sleeves.

Last week, a source told PEOPLE that Kelce’s friends think the romance between him and Swift is"the real deal."
“They’re both really hard workers, and he acknowledges her art is hers, and he has what’s his,” the source explained. “He understands the territory their relationship comes with and like he said, isn’t letting any of the hoopla impact how they’re growing together.”
