Taylor Swift may have a way with words, but Travis Kelce proved that she’s not the only one who can captivate an audience with his AFC Championship victory speech.

“You gotta fight for your right to party!” Kelce, 34, said while accepting the AFC Championship trophy on Sunday, January 28, referencing the Beastie Boys’ song “Fight For Your Right” after the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Baltimore Ravens 17-10. (Kelce became the all-time post-season leader in receptions in the playoffs.)

The camera then panned to Swift, 34, who was seen ducking her head as she laughed at her boyfriend’s words.

“Believe it, baby! We’re going to Las Vegas, Nevada!” Kelce continued as Swift looked at him with a bemused expression on her face. “Gonna get us another one!” (The Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles in 2023’s Super Bowl LVII and the San Francisco 49ers at 2020’s Super Bowl LIV.)

Swift also shared a sweet moment with Chiefs coach Andy Reid, who pointed at one another while she threw an arm around Travis’ dad Ed Kelce. She and Travis were also seen sharing a celebration smooch on the field.

‘The Chiefs are still the Chiefs, and believe it,’ he said on CBS after the game, before invoking the Beastie Boys. ‘You gotta fight, for your right, to party!’

 

‘Believe it, baby, we going to Las VegasNevada to go get us another one!’

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes added to CBS, ‘We’ve been underdogs for the last few games, but we never feel like underdogs. We got a lot of guys on this team that know how to win, and when playoffs came around I knew we were gonna make it happen.’

Travis and Taylor hugged and kissed at M&T Bank Stadium, with the pop megastar looking almost tearful as the couple had a moment to celebrate.

It is now assumed that Swift will dash from Tokyo to Las Vegas to watch her boyfriend battle for football’s ultimate prize on February 11.

Swift plays four nights of her blockbuster Eras Tour in Japan’s capital from February 7-10 before now having to race back to Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

It was also a significant night for Kelce individually, as he broke Jerry Rice’s record for most postseason receptions in NFL history in the first half.

The 34-year-old went into Sunday’s game with 145 receptions, 1,694 receiving yards and 18 touchdowns in his playoff career, trailing the Hall of Famer Rice in each category.

But with seven early catches, Kelce brought his tally up to 152, surpassing Rice’s 151 before halftime.
