According to a source on the scene, Iger was having dinner with his wife Willow Bay when Swift and Kelce walked into the celebrity hotspot.

While Swift’s fame may explain Iger’s adoration, his company 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 streaming rights to the three-hour concert film.
Because Disney owns 80 percent of ESPN, Iger also benefited from Swift’s influence in the NFL this past season.
According to the New York Times, networks averaged 25 million viewers in the late Sunday slots and 16 million in the early Sunday slots when Swift attended Chiefs games. Swift’s presence increased viewership by nine percent and 15 percent, respectively.

Additionally, Disney+ planned a production with Swift at the Hollywood sign, but canceled the operation on March 12 after protests from residents near the iconic landmark.
Swift recently wrapped up the Asian leg of her record-breaking tour in Singapore. She and Kelce are spending time together before Swift resumes her shows in Europe in May.
Kelce is expected to be with her for the European leg until he and the Chiefs begin pre-season as they look to win their third straight title.
