Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift

 

Taylor Swift might have called Melbourne ‘the love of her life’ following her three sold out shows, but she appears to be enjoying the sights of Sydney more.

Swifties in Sydney have pointed out that the Style singer was not seen in public in Melbourne outside of her shows – while she’s been spotted out and about on numerous occasions in the Harbour City.

It’s also telling she opted to spend her four-day break in Sydney, ahead of her first show on Friday night.

On Tuesday night Taylor stopped traffic when she stepped out for dinner at Pellegrino 2000, a neighbourhood trattoria located in Surry Hills.

Swift enjoyed a visit to Sydney Zoo on Wednesday before she was spotted with her entourage enjoying a very swanky meal at Japanese restaurant Nobu inside Crown Sydney, where she is staying.

Taylor returned to Sydney Zoo on Thursday with boyfriend Travis Kelce after he touched down in Australia for a romantic getaway with the Style singer.

Victorians have been quick to defend their city on social media, reigniting the age-old rivalry between the two cities.

‘I am bizarrely invested in finding out what Taylor Swift will have to say about Sydney, after calling Melbourne the love of my life,’ snapped one user.

‘Taylor Swift did 3 concerts in Melbourne but 4 in Sydney…what does that tell you? Sorry Melbourne but SYDNEY IS STILL KING’ hit back a Sydneysider.

Meanwhile, one Melburnian strangely decided to take a whack at Sydney weather forecast in the coming days.

‘Melbourne 3 perfect nights for Taylor Swift. Sydney night one – hail storm,’ they wrote, referencing Friday night’s possible deluge.

Taylor posted several photos from Melbourne to her Instagram on Monday and thanked fans for the memories.

‘Melbourne, what do I even say to you after over 288,000 of you came and danced with us in the last 3 nights ??! That was unforgettable,’ she wrote.

‘You were on another LEVEL. Thank you for the memories. I’ll revisit the ones from this weekend often.’

Swift is set to perform four shows in Sydney from Friday, February 23 to Monday February 26 after performing three sold-out shows in Melbourne.
