Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce
Michael Owens/Getty ImagesA former cheerleader for the Kansas City Chiefs offers details on where Taylor Swift meets with Travis Kelce after his games.
Stefanie Hillswho cheered for the Chiefs until 2023, shares the recent TikTok – which is now circulating online, several months after she posted the clip – that after the game, Swift would “always meet Travis at (his) locker room” at Arrowhead Stadium.
“All those pictures of her game-day uniforms walking down (the) red tunnels at Arrowhead right next to the players’ locker room, which is next to the Chiefs’ cheer locker room, and there were so many close encounters, ” Hills said, recalling how she and her fellow cheerleaders had waited “a very long time” outside the locker rooms to have their picture taken with Swift.
When Hills first heard that Swift and Kelce, both 35, were an item, she couldn’t believe it.
Taylor Swift has loved being the girl in the bleachers in the middle of her blossoming romance with Travis Kelce. Swift made her first appearance at a Kansas City Chiefs game in September 2023, watching them defeat the Chicago Bears from the Kelce family’s private series. After cheering alongside the tight end’s mother, Donna Kelce, she and Travis (…)
“My initial thoughts were, ‘There’s no way Taylor Swift is dating Travis Kelce. Like, this must be a publicity stunt,'” he recalled in his September 2024 video. “We’re talking about the same Travis Kelce who a little less than 10 years ago, had his own dating show where he dating one woman from every state in the United States. … You can see why I was a bit confused.”
When Swift attended his first Chiefs game in September 2023, Hills said she “almost pooped” herself amid the excitement, adding, “And I’m not even freakin’ Swiftie.”
@stevehills I knew you were trouble when you walked in…jk! Slowly come fast! lysm TS! #taylorswift #nflcheerleader #kansascity #chief #chiefs #chiefsfootball #fyp #swagsurf
At the time, “we did my choreography in the end zone and I looked up, and no joke, she was on the screen and she was clapping,” Hills recalled. “And I was like, ‘She just watched our team dance and now she’s cheering and she liked my choreography.’ If she didn’t like it, she wouldn’t have clapped.”
Hills’ only complaints: That the pop star’s presence drives up matchday ticket prices, and that the live cameras are constantly going to Swift rather than the cheerleaders and fans.
Taylor Swift is a proud member of Chiefs Kingdom to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce. “Football is great, it turns out,” Swift, who began dating the Kansas City Chiefs tight end in the summer of 2023, told TIME the following December. “I’ve been losing my whole life.” Swift went to her first Chiefs game in September (…)
“Which she can’t control and I’m sure she’d rather they didn’t show her 24-7,” Hills said. “Personally, if I’m at a Chiefs game drinking, like: Don’t point a camera at me. Like, that would really annoy me.”
He added: “Because Chiefs games get rowdy.”
Swift has been cheering on her boyfriend – from the VIP section of his team – for almost a year and a half. On Saturday, January 18, she showed up to Arrowhead dressed in head-to-toe Chanel, arriving alongside her parents, Scott a Andreaand a younger brother, Austin. The rest of the Swift family wore Chiefs branded gear as they sat with Kelce’s family and basketball phenom Caitlin Clark in the box.
There, Swift burst in a raucous round of cheers when Kelce scored a touchdown during the Chiefs’ divisional playoff game. After defeating the Houston Texans, a reporter asked Kelce if his standout performance on the field made him feel 10 years younger.
“Twenty-two, baby,” Kelce repliedreferring to Swift’s Red song of the same name.
