The engagement of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce sent shockwaves across both the sports and entertainment worlds this week, and it didn’t take long for one of the WNBA’s brightest young stars to react.
Caitlin Clark, long known for being a devoted Swift fan, quickly joined the chorus of excitement online as the news broke.
Swift and Kelce confirmed their engagement with a joint Instagram post at 1 p.m. ET on Tuesday, writing: “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” a lighthearted nod to their unlikely pairing.
The photos showed Kelce‘s carefully designed diamond ring and the couple’s intimate garden proposal, setting social media ablaze.
Clark celebrates the moment with a Swift soundtrack
Just minutes after the post went live, Clark reshared the engagement photos to her Instagram story. The Indiana Fever guard chose to add Swift‘s song “So High School” as the background track, making her reaction all the more personal.
The track, from Swift’s 2024 album The Tortured Poets Department, opens with the lyric: “I feel so high school every time I look at you / I wanna find you in a crowd just to hide from you.”
It was a fitting choice for the moment, with fans quick to highlight Clark‘s playful tribute.
Given her status as one of the WNBA’s most popular players and a high-profile Swiftie, her reaction quickly circulated across social media, adding to the already massive buzz surrounding the announcement.
Whether Clark will actually be among those invited to what promises to be one of the most high-profile weddings in recent memory remains to be seen.
But for now, her enthusiastic response has already made her part of the conversation, proving once again how tightly woven the worlds of sports and pop culture have become.
