Taylor Swift mimicked Travis Kelce’s first down celebration after the Kansas City Chiefs star made a wild play during his game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Friday via Page Six.
After receiving a pass from quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the 35-year-old NFL star threw a lateral to running back Samaje Perine, who extended the play beyond the first down marker. Broadcast cameras captured Swift, 34, celebrating the play in the stands by imitating Kelce’s famous first-down signal.

Swift made her allegiance known in a red Louis Vuitton sweatshirt and black skinny jeans, which she paired with a scarlet Versace purse and black Alaïa booties. The hitmaker also added a sweet nod to Kelce with her outfit, accessorizing with an “87” pendant necklace.
She was accompanied by Kelce’s mom, Donna, and her father, Scott, in a VIP suite at Arrowhead Stadium. It’s uncertain if Swift spent Thanksgiving with Kelce’s family, as Donna previously mentioned she might skip the family gathering.
When asked if Swift would be joining the Kelce family festivities during an appearance on “Today,” Donna replied, “I don’t think so. She’s kind of busy right now. She still has her tour to do.”
Swift missed Kelce’s last two away games against the Carolina Panthers and the Buffalo Bills. While the Chiefs secured a thrilling victory against the Panthers, they suffered their first loss of the season to the Bills on November 17th. Swift was unable to attend either game because she was on the road for her blockbuster Eras Tour. After nearly two years, the tour is finally coming to an end next month, following her stop in Vancouver, Canada.
Before flying to Kansas City, Swift performed two sold-out weekends in Toronto — aka “Tayronto.” Swift got emotional during her sixth and final show, thanking the crowd for their unwavering love and support as they gave her a minute-long standing ovation.
