Romantic Gesture: Taylor Swift Sends Love to Travis Kelce with a heart hand demonstration during her electrifying performance in Singapore: ‘I Love Youuuuu, Travis!
Travis Kelce is opening up about what inspired him to show off one of girlfriend Taylor Swift’s signature moves on the field.
The Kansas City Chief’s tight end formed a heart with his hands at Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills, after scoring a touchdown during the second quarter. And on Wednesday episode of his New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast, he explained to his older brother Jason Kelce that he was inspired to do the move to bring a little positivity to the sport.
“Yeah, man, had to spread the love baby,” Travis said. “Always got to spread that love, baby.”
Cameras caught Travis doing the move, seemingly in the direction of the suite where his girlfriend Taylor Swift was seated with members of the Kelce’s family. But Travis went on to say that the gesture was mainly for Bills fans, who he said “understandably” greeted him with “a lot of hate” when he pulled up to Highmark Stadium in New York, the Bills’ home turf.
“It’s a football game,” Travis said, after Jason reminded him that “it’s supposed to be” competitive. “The Bills, coming into their house, they want to make it rowdy. Did it get a little disrespectful? 1,000%. 1,000%. Did they get a little extra? 1,000%.”
Asked what they said, Travis played coy. “I’m not going to say because that’s what they want,” he told Jason. “They want to feel… I’m not going to relay it. But some things were said about the family, some pretty inappropriate things were said about [teammate Patrick] Mahomes. It was, it was pretty wack.”
“I get it, I get it,” he continued. “Coming into a hostile environment, I respect it. But I just wanted to make sure they knew it wasn’t mutual. I don’t hate you guys like you hate us. It’s all love. It’s all love baby.”
