Disney CEO Bob Iger reportedly ‘loved’ Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce in Los Angeles.
Iger’s fandom was on display when the 14-time Grammy winner and three-time Super Bowl champion dined at Bird Streets Club in Los Angeles on Saturday night, according to Page six.
According to a source on site, Iger was dining with his wife, Willow Bay, when Swift and Kelce entered the celebrity hotspot.
“Bob jumped out of his seat the minute (Taylor) walked in,” the source said.
The private club is known for hosting stars such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Timothée Chalamet and Bruno Mars.

While Swift’s fame may explain Iger’s adoration, her business has also benefited from the pop star’s fame.
Earlier this month, Disney+ launched “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour (Taylor’s Version)” and built the service’s homepage around the megastar. Disney reportedly paid $75 million for the worldwide release rights to the three-hour concert film.
With Disney owning 80 percent of ESPN, Iger also benefited from Swift’s influence in the NFL this past season.
According to the New York Times, the networks averaged 25 million viewers in Sunday late-day slots and 16 million in Sunday morning slots when Swift attended Chiefs games. Swift’s presence increased viewership by 9 percent and 15 percent, respectively.
Iger and his wife Willow Bay were enjoying a meal at the restaurant when Swift and Kelce entered.

Additionally, Disney+ had planned a production with Swift on the Hollywood Sign, but canceled the operation on March 12 after an outcry from residents near the iconic landmark.
Swift recently wrapped up the Asian leg of her record-breaking tour in Singapore. She and Kelce spend time together before Swift resumes her concerts in Europe in May.
Kelce is expected to be with her throughout the European phase until he and the Chiefs begin pre-season as they look to win their third consecutive title.
