Travis Kelce never misses an opportunity to remind us that he’s Taylor Swift’s boyfriend.
While so many of his athletic peers were in Los Angeles for the ESPY Awards on July 11, the Kansas City Chiefs player was showing off the moves he learned from Swift at a charity karaoke competition in Lake Tahoe, Nevada.
However, Kelce’s his performance of White Snake’s “Here I Go Again” was not the only part of the evening worth discussing.
For his latest viral moment, Kelce dedicated his victory to his girlfriend of nearly one year. “
Taylor, this is for you,” he shouted into the mic through mock-tears as he accepted the award for his special performance at the American Century Championship charity golf tournament. Thankfully, Sports Radio 810 WHB shared the shoutout on X.com.
While many Swifties were laughing over Kelce’s dramatic declaration, one eagle-eyed fan noticed that the footballer—who was dressed in a “USA” shirt and cargo shorts—appeared to mimic his girlfriend’s Eras Tour choreography throughout the performance. This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, considering Swift has done the exact same thing during recent shows.
“Travis Kelce, you look like Taylor Swift in this light,” the user captioned a video comparison, referencing lyrics from Swift’s song “Clara Bow.” In the first clip, Kelce appears to mimick Swift’s march from “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived.” In another back-to-back comparison, that same TikTok user shared a clip of Kelce performing Swift’s dramatic choreography from “My Tears Ricochet.”
“This convinced me that they play eras tour together,” one user commented, while another wrote, “I just know Tay is watching the videos of him dying laughing.”
Perhaps these moves were some of the “extra stuff” Kelce left out of his debut Eras Tour performance in June. For those who don’t recall, Kelce joined his girlfriend on stage in London for the vaudeville act right between “TSMWEL” and “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”
“The one thing I told myself is, ‘Do not drop the baby. Do not drop Taylor on your way over [to] this damn couch,” he later recalled on the New Heights podcast. “I was gonna do some extra stuff, and who knows, maybe if I ever do it again, I might do it. But the golden rule was, do not drop Taylor. Get her to that couch safely.”
Here’s hoping we’ll get to see part two in the future. He is an award-winning performer, after all.
