From inside local businesses to outside on the street, people in Norwalk reacted to the announcement of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s engagement.
“Oh my God, it’s happening," said Swiftie Galianna Erazo. "Stay calm! I didn’t know this was gonna happen."
They won't be getting married with "Paper Rings." Kelce instead opted for an eight-carat diamond engagement ring.
Football fans like Kevin Spaulding say they wish the happy couple well, but they're hesitant to take Kelce for their fantasy football team.
“I’m not going to draft Travis Kelce," Spaulding says. "Simply because he just made $1 billion."
Others are wishing them a lifetime of happiness.
"Travis seems like a nice guy and Taylor Swift seems nice," Andrew Lucas, of Darien says. "I think they’ll be happy together."
Factory Underground Studio has a Taylor Swift-themed dance party planned for Sept.13, and Erazo says sparks will fly like "New Year’s Day."
"I really think she’s empowering young women and teaching them how to stand up for themselves, especially in music where it’s a male-dominated field," Erazo says. "That’s why I made this event, so I can give other women of all ages an opportunity to get a head start in music and media."
There is no word yet on where or when Kelce and Swift's wedding will be held.
