The 35-year-old pop star showed up for her first NFL game as Travis' fiancée on Sunday in an unusual way.

Per viral footage shared on X, Taylor appeared to enter under the cover of a rolling wall, completely obscuring her from view.

She was never shown on screen during the broadcast, but sources later confirmed to People, E! News, and more outlets that Taylor was, in fact, in attendance at Arrowhead Stadium.

No official explanation has been provided for the suspicious disguise, but it's reminiscent of the infamous "cleaning cart" the Grammy winner was rolled in as she traveled from backstage to begin her performances on The Eras Tour.

Of course, Swifties wasted no time coming up with potential theories as to why Taylor opted to attend in secret.

Some suspected that it was an extra security measure in light of the recent shooting of far-right commentator Charlie Kirk.

"We don't have any idea what goes on in her life behind the scenes.. this world is crazy right now.. I don't blame her for anything she feels she needs to feel safe," one user wrote.

Others suspected she may be rocking a new look for her upcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl, that she doesn't want to reveal yet.

Unfortunately, the singer's presence wasn't quite a good-luck charm for Travis and the Chiefs, as they suffered a brutal 20-17 loss against the Philadelphia Eagles in a highly anticipated rematch of Super Bowl LIX.

Travis was seen slamming his helmet to the ground amid the team's frustrations, which included an end-zone drop by the tight end that resulted in an interception for the Eagles.
