Swift, of course, has no real reason to attend the 2025 Oscars: She is not presenting or performing, and she doesn’t have any nominations either. Her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn is a presenter though, and by skipping, it ensures they won’t have a run-in two years after their 2023 split.

The pop star was noticeably absent from the Oscars on Sunday, and she and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, did not show up for the Vanity Fair afterparty either.
