Travis Kelce and his camp have fully embraced the Taylor Swift fandom as they enjoyed her Eras Tour in Singapore. The Kansas City Chiefs star and his friends, including manager Andre Eanes, rocked up to the National Stadium to watch the popstar perform for a second straight night on Saturday.
The 34-year-old Kelce flew to Singapore this week after his older brother Jason emotionally announced his retirement from the NFL after 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles. He kept his girlfriend close as he watched the Eagles legend hang up his cleats, wearing a friendship bracelet with her initials on. And the tight end was spotted adorably exchanging the handmade jewelry items with her fans at the show Saturday.
Swifties – fans of the 14-time Grammy Award winner – have made it a tradition to make, wear and exchange friendship bracelets, typically crafted with ceramic, lettered, or colored beads, at the Eras Tour. In a clip shared to social media, Kelce stops inside the stadium to gift a friendship bracelet and gives her a fist bump.
In another video, the NFL star is seen swapping the bracelets with young fans, who lean over the railings to greet him. And it’s not just Kelce who’s been converted into a Swiftie as his friends and manager have soaked up the sold-out show too. Eanes, who runs A&A Management and signed Kelce as the company’s second client with his brother Aaron, attended the concert and claimed he’s now a fully-fledged fan.
‘I’m 100% a Swiftie Now what an amazing performance! #ErasTour2024,’ he wrote alongside a video of Taylor performing on social media. He also shared a photo to his Instagram story showing himself wearing a blue ‘1989’ friendship bracelet in honor of Taylor’s fifth studio album and Kelce’s Super Bowl champions cap in the background. Saturday’s show is Swift’s last at Singapore’s National Stadium before a break for two months ahead of a lengthy run of European dates.
Kelce will likely follow her to Europe for some of her shows – he is currently making the most of the NFL offseason and his Chiefs team won’t return for practice until July. It has been reported that Kelce has made plans for his time with Swift in Europe to help the singer make the most of her downtime between shows.
He has apparently booked tables at some of the finest restaurants across the continent as well as planning to visit vineyards in Italy with her. Before heading to Singapore, Kelce was on hand to support his brother Jason bringing the curtain down on his NFL career.
Travis wept as he took a seat in the audience for Jason’s announcement and cried again when they discussed it together on their New Heights podcast. The brothers then took a seat courtside for their hometown NBA team, Cleveland Cavaliers, taking on Boston Celtics on Wednesday night. Jason was honored by the crowd, a little over 24 hours on from his retirement confirmation.
