Why Didn’t Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Attend the Oscars 2025?

Taylor Swift is facing speculation for staying silent after Blake Lively filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. An insider told a news portal that Taylor’s silence could impact the case. Meanwhile, rumours suggest Taylor has grown closer to Selena Gomez, fueling speculation about a fallout with Blake

Taylor Swift, who has shared a close friendship with Blake Lively, is caught in the controversy for remaining mostly silent after Lively filed a lawsuit last December, accusing Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment on set.

Taylor, who is also the godmother of Blake’s children, has largely remained tight-lipped since Blake filed a lawsuit accusing It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni. An insider told Daily Mail, “Taylor appears to have distanced herself from her best friend, who has accused a man of sexual harassment, despite being the godmother of her [Blake’s] children. Taylor is a sexual assault victim and spent more than a year of her life fighting for a case that she knew she would win. She has donated money to sexual assault victims’ funds. If Taylor truly supported Blake, would she not want to publicly back her?”

The insider also added, “Some people feel [Taylor] should be offering comfort and using her platform to rally Swifties in support of what is right. Instead, Taylor appears to have gone silent and is staying out of the public eye. This will likely play a role in Justin’s defense. If Taylor does not believe Blake, she will be the smoking gun in this case.” However, Taylor has not responded to these allegations as of now.

This is not the end. There were also speculations that Taylor might have found a new friend in Selena Gomez. The rumors gained traction when Selena mentioned on Stationhead that Taylor “loved” a few songs from her latest album, I Said I Love You First, where Selena collaborated with her fiancé, Benny Blanco. Now, one netizen wrote, “It’s very apparent that Taylor Swift has blacklisted Blake Lively because Selena Gomez can’t shut up about Taylor Swift. And Selena Gomez and Blake Lively don’t like each other.” Check out a few tweets below:

Rumours have been circulating for a while that Selena and Blake are not on good terms. According to a 2024 report by Daily Mail, a source claimed that the two are not friends and prefer to spend time with Taylor separately.

However, neither Selena nor Blake has shared their opinions on the matter. In a 2016 interview with Elle magazine, Selena spoke about Blake and said, “I wish she was my friend, but she’s not my friend. Blake Lively. I’ve never met her, but I just love her hair. I think she’s got beautiful, effortless hair. I think she’s super beachy.”
