Travis Kelce tried to play it cool while watching Taylor Swift’s steamy performance of “Vigilante S—t” next to her father, Scott Swift, during her second Eras Tour concert in Argentina. The Kansas City Chiefs player couldn’t keep his eyes off the “Cruel Summer” singer Saturday night as she and her back-up dancers put on a seductive display, straddling and dancing on chairs.
During the number, Kelce could be seen singing and slowly dancing to the beat while tucked away in the VIP tent. The two-time Super Bowl champion, who had his hands raised in the air, seemingly tried to avoid eye-contact with his girlfriend’s dad, who eventually tried to break the ice.

Although the two men stood about a foot apart, Scott leaned over to Kelce about halfway through the song and cracked a joke, leading the NFL star to erupt in laughter. While it’s unclear what Scott may have said, the pair immediately went back to watching Taylor, who seemingly returned his gaze all night. The 12-time Grammy winner also seemed happier than ever while performing “Lover”— despite seemingly “disassociating” during the song, which was inspired by ex Joe Alwyn, at her previous shows.

Fans couldn’t help but notice that the giddy pop star glanced in Kelce’s direction numerous times during the song, which details falling in love. Taylor, who is known to send her fans messages through her music, also notably chose “End Game” as one of the surprise songs for the night, leading many fans to believe the billionaire sees a long future with the hunky NFL player. As if that wasn’t enough, the “Anti-Hero” singer closed the show with a not-so-subtle shout-out to her beau during the song “Karma.”
While she typically sings, “Karma is the guy on the screen, coming straight home to me” she changed the lyrics from “guy on the screen” to “guy on the Chiefs.” The switch-up came to a complete shock to Kelce — and Taylor’s dad — as the football player immediately buried his face in his hands as Scott patted him on the back.
After the nearly four-hour concert, Kelce waited for his leading lady at the side stage, where they shared a very passionate kiss. When Taylor saw Kelce smiling at her from across the venue, she immediately broke out into a run and nearly jumped into his arms as fans cheered from the stands. Kelce, who seemed a bit caught off guard, then wrapped his arms around the singer’s waist and pulled her in for a kiss.
The moment marked the first time the duo – who was first linked in September — was seen smooching in public, sending the internet into a frenzy. Several celebrities even weighed in on the PDA-packed night, including Hilarie Burton, who predicted the twosome will “be engaged by May.” “They are gonna have the most flannel lined, pie and red ribbon kinda Christmas,” the “One Tree Hill” alum tweeted Sunday alongside a video of Kelce at the concert. “And then these babies are gonna be engaged by May.”
“Every other guy made her feel like she had to downplay her own work,” the actress, 41, continued in a separate tweet. “This big ol beefy tree of a man is holding up signs and singing along! Catching her as she runs offstage?!?! She then compared the NFL tight end to her husband, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, concluding, “Get a man who lights up when you win.”
