Taylor Swift’s a very happy pop star right now … ’cause her boyfriend Travis Kelce just booked a place in Super Bowl LVIII — and she gave him a huge hug on the field to celebrate.
The Kansas City Chiefs just defeated the Baltimore Ravens 17-10 at M&T Bank Stadium and booked their ticket to the NFL’s final showdown where they’ll play either the San Francisco 49ers or the Detroit Lions. Tay and Travis hugged it out on the field — a sweet moment between the power couple.
Taylor was super into the entire game … cheering loudly after Travis caught a TD in the first quarter — and wringing her hands down the stretch when Baltimore looked like they might mount a late comeback. Happy ending for a team that’s dominated the league in recent years.
It’s K.C.’s fourth Super Bowl appearance in the last five years, but their first since Taylor and Travis took over as the world’s most famous couple.
While she won’t be on the field in Vegas Feb. 11 — this feels like a big moment for Tay too … a culmination of a full season of football super fandom that started way back in September.
Remember … we first saw Taylor at the Chiefs’ week 3 matchup against the Bears. She sat next to Donna Kelce — the first time but most certainly not the last — while she watched her BF beat down on Chicago for a 41-10 Chiefs W.
T-Swift headed on the road for the next game — traveling to East Rutherford, New Jersey to watch K.C. pull out a narrow 23-20 win over the New York Jets. She brought some friends with her BTW … close friend Blake Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds and freakin’ Wolverine himself, Hugh Jackman.
On top of that, Swift was spotted hanging the night before with Sophie Turner and one new friend in NYC … Brittany Mahomes — who has remained a constant football companion for the 34-year-old.
The Swift era in K.C. kept going strong … with a 19-8 win over the Broncos on a chilly Thursday night in Missouri back in October. Taylor gave Donna a friendship bracelet … and the Chiefs moved to 3-0 with Swift in attendance.
Four appearances, four wins for the Chiefs. Taylor and new BFF Brittany hit the suite for the Chiefs’ win over the Chargers on Oct. 22. They even revealed a new secret handshake to the world … reviews were mixed.
It took more than a month for Swift to hit up another NFL game … with Travis traveling to Europe to play a game and Swift going on tour in South America. We didn’t worry about the couple though — ’cause Travis went down to Argentina to visit for a couple days.
Swift cropped up again in early December … but the long-term separation seemed to spoil the T-Swift magic. The Chiefs dropped their first game with Swift in attendance to the Green Bay Packers — and some fans started to question if there was a curse attached to the star.
Bills vs Chiefs … a game marred by controversy — and T-Swift was on hand to see all of it. A competitive game throughout, Taylor could be seen blasting those amazing pipes of hers … before a controversial offsides call late resulted in a 20-17 Buffalo victory and a Patrick Mahomes freakout.
On the road once again … Taylor traveled to New England to watch the Chiefs play the Patriots with her pops, Scott. The Chiefs got back to their winning ways in a 27-17 victory win over Bill Belichick’s boys.
Merry Christmas, Taylor!!! Instead of roasting chestnuts on an open fire, Swift — joined by one of the few people more popular than her, Santa Claus — cheered on her man from the suite on Christmas Day against the Raiders. Another L for the red and gold.
Another holiday, another Swift appearance. On New Year’s Eve, Taylor watched as K.C. beat Cincinnati — taking home the AFC West title after coming back from 10 points down to win 25-17.

According to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, the two had already been getting to know each other weeks before she attended his game against the Chicago Bears on Sept. 24, 2023.
“We had known each other for close to a month up to that point,” Kelce, 34, shared during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show Wednesday.
Three days before Swift attended the Chiefs-Bears game, Kelce shared on The Pat McAfee Show that he “threw the ball in her court” and had invited her to see him play. On Wednesday, he revealed he had already known she would go see him play when he said that on the show.
“It wasn’t just an out-of-the-blue, ‘Hey, come to the game,’” Kelce said. Since that first appearance, Swift, 34, has attended 12 of Kelce’s games.
“I love it when Taylor comes and supports me and enjoys the game with the fam and friends. It’s been nothing but a wonderful year, man,” he told McAfee.
Although the attention their relationship has brought him is “brand new,” he said it’s something he’s having fun with.
“You know, it’s been a crazy, crazy ride that I could have never anticipated,” he continued. “But I’m having fun with it. The majority of the world is having fun with it, outside all the cranky NFL fans that just don’t want to see the Chiefs win.”
Rumors of a romance between the two started after the athlete attended the singer’s Eras Tour at Arrowhead Stadium and attempted to give her his number.
“If you’re up on Taylor Swift concerts, there are friendship bracelets, and I received a bunch of them being there, but I wanted to give Taylor Swift one with my number on it,” he recalled to his brother Jason on their New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast in July.
Kelce said he was “a little butthurt” to have not had the chance to give her the personalized bracelet due to her being busy prepping the show.
“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” he told his older brother.
Her work ethic is something he admires and that they share in common, he revealed during an interview for WSJ. Magazine’s December/January issue. His own work ethic is why he won’t be at the Grammy’s on Sunday. he told McAfee.
“I wish I could go support Taylor at the Grammys and watch her win every single award that she’s nominated for but I think I got practice on Sunday,” said Kelce.
Kelce and the Chiefs will take on the San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 11 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. At the Grammy’s, Swift up for six awards, including album of the year, record of the year and song of the year.
Travis Kelce has revealed what it’s really like to date girlfriend Taylor Swift during a press conference in Las Vegas on Monday.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, gushed that he is ‘loving every minute’ of their loved-up romance.
Amid the duo’s crazy schedules, the NFL star also admitted that dating the Grammy-winning singer, also 34, is ‘a wild experience’.
He said: ‘Man, I tell you what, it’s a wild experience, but I’m enjoying and loving every bit of it.’
But shutting down any protentional surprises for Taylor as Valentine’s Day approaches, Travis demanded how football is the ‘only thing on his mind right now’.

He added: ‘I’ll tell you what, man, I’m not thinking about anything but this football game. There’s nothing in my mind that’s happening until this football game is over with.’
Travis was in complete awe about Taylor after she announced the release of her upcoming album, The Tortured Poets Department, calling it ‘unbelievable.’
And he also confirmed he has heard bits of the record — set to be released on April 19th.
‘I have heard some of it, yes, and it’s unbelievable. I can’t wait for her to shake up the world when it finally drops.
Travis — who admitted he hasn’t spoken with Taylor since her night at the Grammys — added: ‘She’s unbelievable. She’s rewriting the history books herself. I told her I’d have to hold up my end of the bargain and come home with some hardware, too.’
Kelce also noted the influence Swift has had on bringing new fans to football: ‘She’s definitely brought a lot of new faces to the game,’ he said.
‘Taylor has an unbelievable fan base that follows her and supports her throughout her life. It’s been fun to kind of gather the Swifties into Chiefs Kingdom and open them up to the football world and the sports world.’
The athlete admitted that he has not spoken with Swift since Sunday night’s Grammy Awards.
