St. Louis Aquarium didn’t take Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce on an exclusive tour, despite photo edit
ST. LOUIS — A photo posted on Instagram left some St. Louis residents’ “jaw on the floor.”
The photo, posted on the St. Louis Aquarium’s Instagram page, reportedly shows Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce touring the aquarium with two tour guides.
“Hold up, she came to visit us when?” one Instagram user commented.
Unfortunately, the photo is a fake. The photo was actually a clever edit made by the aquarium from Australia’s 9 News station.
While the photo may have stumped a few people on Instagram, it was shared in good fun by the aquarium.
“Hey @taylorswift and @killatrav, hope you’re enjoying your visit to @thesydneyzoo!” the aquarium said in their original post’s caption. “Let us know when you’re ready to visit us at St. Louis Union Station, we’ll even give you a Back of House tour!”
The aquarium said anyone, not just international music stars, can get their own Back of House tour at the aquarium’s ticketing counter. Tour times are usually available at 10 a.m., 12 p.m. and 3 p.m. pending availability.
