Travis Kelce responds to Taylor Swift’s VMAs speech after popstar thanked ‘magic’ boyfriend onstage

Travis Kelce showed his support for girlfriend Taylor Swift from afar after the pop star thanked him in a VMAs acceptance speech.

Swift took home the video of the year award on Wednesday for her ‘Fortnight’ music video, and publicly recognized the Chiefs star onstage for his support and ability to bring ‘magic’ into her life.

And while Kelce could not be at the event at UBS Arena in New York, he reacted to Swift’s speech virtually as he liked an Instagram video of the speech posted by MTV.

The network tagged both of them in the post, writing, ‘One person ONLY cheers louder for @taylorswift than I do – and that’s @killatrav #VMAs.’

In her acceptance speech for the award, Swift singled out Kelce for his support during the shooting of the ‘Fortnight’ video.

I would always just hear someone cheering from across the studio where we were shooting [the music video],’ she said.

‘And that one person was my boyfriend, Travis. Everything this man touches turns into happiness and fun and magic, and I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that.’

Swift, who was nominated for 12 VMAs, ultimately left the night with seven awards on the back of her ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ album.

The couple, who have been publicly dating since last year, were seen enjoying themselves over the weekend at the US Open.

Travis spoke about the day afterwards on his New Heights podcast, saying, ‘It was a completely different world. I looked to my left and my right and every single time I did it, I saw a familiar face. There were so many f***ing people there to see the action, especially the final game knowing an American was in the US Open.

However, due to his openness about their relationship, it was recently reported that the songstress was forced to lay down some ground rules.

Travis loves to show Taylor off,’ a source told Life & Style, adding, ‘She appreciates it but she’s cautioning him from revealing too much about their private lives.’

‘He wears his heart on his sleeve and says what’s on his mind,’ the source continued.

The news comes after the three-time Super Bowl winner gushed about his girlfriend, and her Eras Tour on the Rich Eisen show earlier this month.

The couple has consistently supported one another at work, with Swift becoming a regular at Chiefs games and Kelce following the singer on her Eras Tour over the summer.

The Chiefs will host the Bengals in Kansas City on Sunday, though it’s unclear if Swift will make the trip for the second straight week after she watched Kelce against the Ravens.
