A NEW holiday romance inspired by Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce is premiering this Christmas.
The pop sensation’s relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs football player caused a stir around the world, so it’s not that surprising that Lifetime is now releasing a Christmas based on their relationship.

Lifetime confirmed their full holiday movie slate yesterday (Tuesday 15) and released first look images from the upcoming flick, along with an exciting teaser clip.
Aptly titled Christmas in the Spotlight, the sweet holiday rom-com stars Jessica Lord, Laith Wallschleger, Jeannie Mai and Haley Kalil.
Though the film may not be officially inspired by Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, the story similarity is uncanny.
It follows pop star named Bowyn (Jessica) who hasn’t found Mr. Right, until she meets a professional football player (Laith) backstage at one of her shows. After Drew publicly declares he has a crush on Bowyn, they begin dating.

Sounds familiar, right?
Taylor and Travis famously began dating after he attended the Eras Tour in July 2023 and made his feelings for the popstar known.
The official synopsis for the real-life-inspired movie teases: “With each passing day they spend together, their feelings grow stronger… but can it last in the limelight, especially when they both have such hectic schedules?
“With people questioning if their feelings for each other are real or just for show, the pressure mounts from the press, paparazzi, their fans and even their family.”
In the first image, Jessica and Laith’s characters can be seen attending a formal holiday event together.
There are also other pictures which showcase the fun tone of the film with one a shot of Laith’s character celebrating at a party and another of him dressed up as Santa Claus. Bowyn seems to enjoy this dress-up as she raises her glass to toast him.
Clips from the promo video which tease these scenes also complement the movie’s fun festive tone.
Christmas in the Spotlight is set to premiere on November 23 on Lifetime at 8pm.
Its U.K. release date has yet to be confirmed.
Along with Christmas in the Spotlight, Lifetime has announced the debut of 11 other holiday films across the festive period with the likes of Jennifer Love Hewitt, Tia Mowry, Maria Menounos, BeBe Winans, Deborah Joy Winans, Vivica A. Fox, Jackée Harry, Romeo Miller, Sarah Drew, Teri Hatcher, Sasha Pieterse, Mitchell Slaggert, Brian Hallisay, RonReaco Lee, among their star-studded casts.
