At the 2024 Super Bowl on Sunday, February 11, Taylor Swift joined Travis Kelce’s family in celebrating the victory of the Kansas City Chiefs.Following the Kansas City Chiefs’ 34-point overtime victory over the San Francisco 49ers, the 34-year-old pop star was seen holding hands with Donna Kelce on the field at Las Vegas’s Allegiant Stadium. They were captivated as they witnessed the Chiefs hoist the Lombardi trophy, symbolizing their second consecutive Super Bowl victory.When Swift bonded with 71-year-old Donna at her first Chiefs game in September 2023, the bond between them and the family deepened. If the Chiefs made it to the Super Bowl, Ed said the following month to Entertainment Tonight that he would “without a doubt” reserve a ticket for Swift.At Travis’s January playoff game against the Buffalo Bills in Orchard Park, New York, Swift finally met Jason, 36, and Kylie, 31, after months of suspense. Even though Kylie told Jason to be “best behavior” around Swift, he still decided to jump into the crowd and remove his top.
“This is part of the Jason Kelce charm. I want to make my best first impression, this is my best chance. Set that bar nice and low,” Jason told Travis during a January episode of their “New Heights” podcast, to which Travis replied, “Tay said she absolutely loved you.”
Swift reunited with the Kelces at the AFC Championship Game against the Baltimore Ravens later that month. She posed for photos with Travis’ family, celebrated major moments in the game by high-fiving and hugging them and joined them on the field to congratulate Travis after the Chiefs won.
“I’ve been fortunate to meet Taylor now,” Jason told NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe earlier this month. “She’s [an] awesome, down-to-earth, genuine person.”
He added that Swift’s personality was “great to see,” especially when “somebody of that caliber of stardom still remain[s] as grounded as they are.”
In a separate interview, Jason defended the media frenzy surrounding Swift’s attendance at NFL games this season. “The attention’s there because the audience wants to see it. If people didn’t want to see it, they wouldn’t be showing it, I know that,” he said on WCPO 9. “She’s a world star and the quintessential artist right now in the world.”
Jason elaborated: “[She’s] immensely talented, an unbelievable role model for young women across the globe, so I think that the NFL would probably be foolish not to show her and show her be a role model for all the young girls out there.”
As for Travis, he is delighted to see Swift bonding with his loved ones. “Everybody knows how close Travis is with his family,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in January. “So it really means everything to him how seamlessly Taylor blends in with all of them. … It’s almost like she’s known his family forever, and he loves that about her.”
