The presence of other artists such as Lena Dunham, the HAIM sisters, Zoë Kravitz, Selena Gomez and Emma Stone confirmed the breadth of the singer's social circle, according to Vanity Fair and EW.

The sports field was also represented with several of Kelce's friends from the NFL, including his Kansas City Chiefs teammates such as quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany, coach Andy Reid, as well as George Kittle and Kyle Juszczyk of the San Francisco 49ers with their respective wives, InStyle detailed.
