With Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding on the horizon, fans can’t wait to see the guest list. It’s highly unlikely that either Kanye “Ye” West or Scooter Braun will receive invites. However, analysts at Freebets.com suspect one of these stars has a higher likelihood of receiving an invite than the other.

West and Swift’s feud dates back to the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, when West infamously interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech to declare that Beyoncé had “one of the best videos of all time.” Though the two publicly reconciled in the years that followed, tensions resurfaced in 2016 after West released his song Famous, in which he rapped controversial lyrics about Swift. A phone call between the two added fuel to the fire, sparking widespread debate about who was telling the truth.

As for West and Braun, their conflict erupted in June 2019 when Braun’s Ithaca Holdings acquired Big Machine Label Group, the record label where Swift had recorded her first six albums. That deal meant Braun now controlled the master recordings of her early catalog. Swift said this move blindsided her and left her feeling betrayed.

According to the experts, West (250/1, or 0.4% chance) has higher odds than Swift’s business rival, Braun (500/1, or 0.2% chance), in showing up to her wedding.

Analysts believe these celebrities have a much higher chance of joining Taylor Swift’s guest list

Taylor Swift is well-known for cultivating a close-knit circle of celebrity friends, often dubbed her “squad.” Over the years, Swift’s celebrity friendships have become part of her public persona, showcasing a mix of camaraderie, mutual admiration, and playful collaborations. We imagine several of her closest Hollywood buddies will attend her wedding to Travis Kelce.

According to analysts from Freebets.com, Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Selena Gomez, Patrick Mahomes, and Brittany Mahomes have a very high likelihood of receiving invitations.

While Lively and Swift were rumored to have a falling out due to the It Ends With Us lawsuit, experts believe Lively has an 80% chance of receiving an invitation (1/4). Reynolds reportedly has a 75% chance (1/3).

Gomez and Swift reportedly have an extremely close friendship. Experts believe the star has a 71.4% chance of receiving an invitation (2/5).

Patrick and Brittany Mahomes became close with Swift and Kelce through the NFL. Patrick reportedly has a 55.6% chance (4/5), and Brittany has a 50% chance (1/1).

Other big names might show up on the pop star’s big day

Analysts from Freebets.com can’t rule out other huge names in the industry, like Ed Sheeran, Jack Antonoff, Gigi Hadid, and Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

The experts believe Sheeran has a 28.6% chance of receiving an invitation (5/2). He’s collaborated with Swift in the past and likely still considers her a close friend.

Antonoff has also frequently collaborated with Swift, helping her greatly with some of her biggest hits. Experts believe he has a 33.3% chance (2/1).

Hadid and Swift also go way back. The model has the same odds as Sheeran — 28.6%

Beyoncé and Jay-Z seem like wild cards. But depending on the scope of the wedding, it’s possible they could receive invitations. The happy couple has just over a 6% chance (15/1).
