Taylor Swift is making a significant impact on Christmas celebrations this year. On Christmas Day, the pop sensation took a moment to celebrate her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, by liking a post that honored the Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s recent milestone achievement.
The post read, “If you ever can’t find Travis, chances are he’s in the end zone. Congrats, @killatrav!” Fans quickly noticed that despite her busy holiday schedule, Swift made time to like the post, showing her support.
Kelce had recently surpassed NFL legend Tony Gonzalez, regarded as one of the best tight ends in football history, with 77 receiving touchdowns, setting a new Chiefs franchise record.
To honor Gonzalez, Kelce performed a touchdown celebration inspired by the retired NFL player’s signature dunk over the goal post. Kelce explained, “We know how iconic it was that he would dunk the ball over the goal post all the time, and I gave my best effort. I don’t know if I did it quite like him, but I gave it a run,” acknowledging the tribute.
Where was Taylor Swift during the Chiefs’ game?
While the Kansas City Chiefs secured a 29-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day, clinching the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs, Taylor Swift chose not to attend the game.
It’s believed she might have opted for a relaxing day at home in her pajamas after wrapping up her record-breaking Eras Tour, which concluded earlier this month on December 8 in Vancouver.
Swift’s close friend, Brittany Mahomes, who is married to Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, also skipped the game. Brittany shared pictures of herself and her two children wearing matching pajamas, likely enjoying a family holiday celebration.
Taylor Swift Sends Christmas Gifts to Travis Kelce’s Teammates
In a heartwarming gesture, Swift sent gifts to Travis Kelce’s teammate, Chris Jones, the Chiefs defensive tackle. Jones’s girlfriend, Sheawna Weathersby, posted on her Instagram Story showcasing the gifts under their tree, accompanied by a card that read, “Merry Christmas from Travis and Taylor.”
Weathersby expressed her gratitude with the caption, “So blessed & grateful this holiday season,” and added a “Thank youuuu, Tay Tay!!!”
Weathersby, along with Chariah Gordon, the fiancée of Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr., are frequently seen alongside Swift at games, strengthening the bond between the women as they support their partners on and off the field.
