Taylor Swift is inspiring Travis Kelce to bring his A game to the Super Bowl.
Kelce, aged 35, spoke highly of his partner during a press conference held on Monday, February 3. This was just six days before he was set to play with the Kansas City Chiefs against the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans.
Kelce expressed the need to match his girlfriend’s drive while being in the limelight. He emphasized the importance of working as hard as she does and never giving up.
He also answered pregame questions about where Swift’s family loyalties lie, since her dad, Scott Swift, has long rooted for the Eagles.
“I don’t know her to have the [Eagles] fandom,” Kelce said Monday. “I know her father has the Philadelphia fandom — as an Eagles fan.”
While Kelce mentioned that he and Scott, aged 72, hadn’t finalized which team to support during the upcoming Super Bowl LIX, he hinted that Scott might be leaning towards cheering for the team dressed in red.

As for the 35-year-old pop star, “She’ll be all for the Chiefs this time around, that’s for sure,” he added.
The tight end was also asked about Taylor’s culinary skills and his favorite dish of hers.
“She’s quite the cook,” he gushed. “I would say — man, I’m a breakfast guy. Her Pop-Tarts are unbelievable, man. Homemade Pop-Tarts: unbelievable.”
While Kelce prepares for the biggest night in sports, Taylor — who was at the 2025 Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday, February 2 — “liked” a post from the Chiefs’ official Instagram account that showed her boyfriend arriving in New Orleans. She’s expected to attend and cheer him on, as she did last year, when she brought a star-studded entourage that included pals Blake Lively, Ice Spice, Lana Del Rey, Miles Teller and his wife, Keleigh Teller, not to mention her parents and brother Austin Swift.
It’s safe to say that Taylor is Kelce’s most famous cheerleader. She showed up to support his AFC Championship game on January 26 and was caught on camera expressing her pride in Kelce as he helped the Chiefs defeat the Buffalo Bills — and secure a spot in the Super Bowl. Afterward, Taylor joined Kelce on the field and was heard telling him, “I love you so much. I’m so proud of you. I can’t stand it.”
As confetti fell upon them, Taylor held Kelce’s face in her hands and said: “Look what you did! Look what you did!” She then gestured to the cheering crowd and added, “Look at this. Look at this. This is not a real-life situation. … I cannot believe this is really happening. I’m in shock.”
