During her Saturday night show in Argentina, Taylor Swift shocked fans and Travis Kelce by changing the lyrics to her song “Karma” to reference her new boyfriend.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce shared their love story with us in 2023.

Travis Kelce publicly pursued Taylor Swift as he revealed to the listeners of his podcast, “New Heights.” He shared that he was unsuccessful in his attempt to give the pop star his phone number while attending her Kansas City “Eras Tour” stop.
“I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings,” he explained in the July 26 episode. “So I was a little butthurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her.”
Kelce explained the trend of wearing and exchanging friendship bracelets at Swift’s concert for the audience and noted that he had planned to give one with his phone number on it to the singer-songwriter.
Kelce’s public confession got Swift’s attention and the two began dating, publicly debuting their new relationship at the Sept. 24 Kansas City Chiefs game.
“This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell,” Swift told Time magazine.
“We started hanging out right after that,” she added. “So, we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I’m grateful for, because we got to get to know each other. By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard-launch a first date.”
Swift often supports Kelce decked out in Chiefs gear – and on more than one occasion has donned an accessory sporting his jersey number, 87. Eagle-eyed fans spotted a friendship bracelet with the 87 on it, while she also wore a Santa hat featuring the 87 for the Christmas Day game.
Fans can often find Swift being Kelce’s biggest cheerleader as he takes the football field, alongside his mom, Donna, or his dad, Ed.
