Taylor Swift Shouted Out Travis Kelce Again and Again While He Danced at Eras Tour in Paris
Talk about a rookie season: In less than a year, Travis Kelce has gone from attending a Taylor Swift concert with the hopes of giving the singer his number (mission failed) to attending another Swift concert and watching her perform not one but two love songs about him. Then again, Swift won a Super Bowl in her first season out there, so it’s been a championship year for everyone.
Kelce made use of his off-season flexibility and headed to Paris to attend the fourth and final night of Swift’s stayover in the city, the first stop on the latest just-launched leg of her record-breaking Eras Tour. The Sunday show just so happened to be her 87th performance on the tour—which is also Kelce’s jersey number.
“Can you believe this is our 87th show of the Eras tour?” Swift said during the concert, eliciting screams from the audience who knew exactly which tight end she was shouting out. Swift played her new song “The Alchemy,” which is chockablock with football references and seems to be about Kelce, as one of the “surprise songs” in her set, as well as “So High School,” her ode to watching American Pie and having a darn good time with a guy, again, seemingly Kelce. She blew him a kiss as she launched into the song, then looked directly up at where Kelce was seated as she hit the closing “you already know, babe” line. The Tortured Poets Department was released while Swift was on hiatus from the tour, and this leg’s setlist shifted to allow her to perform a number of songs from the new album and also integrate a UFO into the stage show. Now the Eras Tour really does have everything.
That’s not all: During the 1989 portion of the night, Swift debuted a new costume, decking herself out in the red and yellow signature colors of Kelce’s team, the Kansas City Chiefs.
Fans captured Kelce vibing at the concert, dancing to “Love Story” and other songs alongside Bradley Cooper and Gigi Hadid. The two couples have also spent quality time together on a post-release getaway to Carmel-by-the-Sea, California after her behemoth double album The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology was released last month.
In a further heart-clenching fan video, onlookers caught Kelce waiting to greet Swift backstage for one of their patented run-jump-kiss post-show celebrations (which has now presumably happened on five continents, for those keeping track, with only Africa and Antarctica left to complete the Infinity Gauntlet), clapping for her band and thoroughly enjoying the “guy on the Chiefs” shoutout in her closing song, “Karma.” Hey, that’s him!
A representative for Swift did not immediately respond to Vanity Fair’s request for comment.
