So it seems Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are looking for some more couple pals, and they allegedly have their eyes set on the controversial Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom; and seemingly for a strategic reason.
Insiders recently claimed to Life and Style Magazine that both Swift and Kelce want this double date-based friendship to benefit them in some way.

“Now that Travis and Taylor have their sights set on conquering Hollywood, cozying up to Katy and Orlando makes a lot of sense,” the source said, later detailing how Bloom would mentor Kelce amid his budding acting career and Perry would help Swift learn how to manage it all.
“[Orlando’s] got decades of experience in the business and lots of great contacts. And on the flip side, Orlando’s a huge sports fan and loves the idea of going to games and hanging out with the squad,” the insider said. Taylor “looks up to Katy as a woman who’s managed to have it all, so she does see her as someone who can offer guidance. And, let’s face it, they could really use each other’s support when people go on the attack against them.”
So could we be seeing these couples spend more and more time together? Only time will tell.
