Taylor Swift‘s ex Joe Alwyn’s appearance at the 2025 Oscars quickly caught fans’ attention. The actor’s red-carpet look sparked debate, with many Swifties drawing unexpected comparisons to Travis Kelce. The similarity led to widespread speculations on social media, with many criticizing the actor.

Did Joe Alwyn copy Travis Kelce at Oscars 2025?
Joe Alwyn, who has mostly kept a low profile and avoided media attention since his breakup with ex Taylor Swift, has garnered significant attention for his public appearance at the 2025 Oscars. The actor walked the red carpet in support of The Brutalist, a film he featured in that earned multiple nominations. Though the actor kept his look classic in a black tuxedo and bow tie, one detail stood out: his brooch. Alwyn’s sparkling brooch immediately caught attention due to its resemblance to the brooch Travis Kelce wore at the 2025 Super Bowl. Kelce, who is currently dating Taylor Swift, wore a gold rose brooch with a burnt-orange suit at the NFL championship game.
The unexpected similarity fueled speculation online, with some questioning if Alwyn was deliberately copying Kelce’s style. Beyond his fashion choice, Alwyn faced backlash from Swift’s fans on social media. Many criticized his red-carpet appearance. Alwyn seemingly remained composed throughout the night and later took the stage as a presenter for Best Cinematography.
Though Joe Alwyn largely avoided commenting on his past relationship with Swift, he recently addressed the public speculations about it. In a January 2025 interview with The Guardian, he said, “I have tried just to focus on controlling what I can control.” “Right from the beginning, tried to focus on the things that are meaningful for me: friends, family, work, of course,” he added.
The 97th Academy Awards were held on March 2, 2025.
