Taylor Swift scored some girlfriend points by sporting Kansas City Chiefs’ colors in support of her beau, Travis Kelce.
In the “1989” part of her concert, the pop icon thrilled the audience in a gold crop top and a vibrant red skater skirt. Travis was in attendance, making the moment that much more special.
Footage of Swift rocking Kelce’s team colors made its way to X (formerly Twitter).
Likewise, fan footage of Travis loving the attention made its way to social media, too.
The Many Layers to Taylor Swift’s Tribute to Travis Kelce
Of course, Swifties had a perfectly reasonable, nuanced reaction to seeing Taylor Swift wear Travis Kelce’s team colors. Her legion of fans felt it was a masterstroke of genius that Swift played tribute to her current beau on the 87th show of her tour. To the NFL deficient, 87 is Travis’s jersey number.
To top it off, Taylor debuted her first live performance of “The Alchemy,” the second to last track of her latest album. The song is a not-so-subtle tribute to Kelce, with imagery about football and lyrics about love that “happens once every few lifetimes”.
Adding to the mix was Swift combining “The Alchemy” with her 2012 track “Treacherous.” In the lyrics to “Treacherous,” Taylor croons about an attraction she realizes won’t be good for her.
The two songs are quite a contrast, showing how far Swift has come with her luckless love life. Plus, “Treacherous” is from her album Red, one of the Chief’s colors. Deep stuff.
Fans React Totally Reasonably After Taylor Swift’s Show of Love for Travis Kelce
Once fans added everything up, they lost their collective minds.
“NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND taylor swift played the alchemy x treacherous and begin again in her 87th show while travis kelce was in the audience,” a Swift acolyte raved on X. “A song about gold and a song from RED… her mind,” another fan marveled.
Meanwhile, other fans looked on, happy their idol had finally found true love after so many public failed attempts. “I always love when Travis is at a show because you can tell when she is smiling at him and she deserves this so much,” a fan wrote. “I’m Actually crying about it,” a second totally healthy, adjusted fan wrote.
“It melts my heart. I love love and theirs is so special,” another Swift lover added.

With any luck, this scene will play out in the inevitable biopic about the greatest romance the world has ever known. When the young actress that plays Swift accepts her Oscar for her performance, the camera will cut to an older, wiser, Taylor, alongside a silver fox version of Travis.
The long-married couple will share a knowing glance. And the universe will smile.
