Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce share passionate kiss as the clock strikes midnight at a glitzy New Year party in Kansas City, hours after the singer cheered the Chiefs on to victory wearing replica of his jacket
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift shared a passionate kiss as the clock struck midnight in Kansas City, with the loved-up couple celebrating the arrival of 2024 with a glitzy party surrounded by friends.
Video from the party surfaced across social media on New Year’s Day, with the singer and the NFL star caught on camera in a passionate embrace on a number of clips from the bash.
Kelce was wearing a sleek suit for the bash, while Swift was wearing a glittering dress for the occasion.
Friends shared multiple videos from the night, with a close friend of Kelce’s filming the room as the clock struck midnight and inadvertently catching the couple kissing.
And another guest filmed themselves amid the celebrations with Travis and Taylor smooching in the background for the entirety of the clip.

Swift and Kelce have enjoyed a whirlwind romance since going public back in September
They partied the night away after Swift went to cheer Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs on to victory in Sunday’s game against Cincinnati Bengals.
The singer arrived for the game at Arrowhead Stadium wearing a replica of the same Chiefs jacket that Kelce had arrived in for the Christmas Day NFL game which she was also at. A closer looks shows that she has ‘Tay’ stitched into the sleeve of her version – a nickname Travis has used for her before.
They have spent plenty of time together during the holidays with the singer enjoying a break before a relentless year of touring in 2024.
For Kelce, he is currently in the middle of another relentless NFL season but has at least had two games in Kansas City on Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve, allowing more time at home than if the Chiefs had been scheduled to play on the road.
Sunday’s win saw the Chiefs wrap up the AFC West, giving Kelce another reason to celebrate after the game.
His team, last year’s Super Bowl winners, now round out the regular season next Sunday in Los Angeles against the Chargers before attention will turn sharply to the playoffs.
Swift doesn’t resume her Eras Tour until February but if the Chiefs make it to the Super Bowl – in Vegas on February 11 – she might have to make a mad dash from Tokyo, where she will have just played her first shows on 2024, to the west coast to cheer Kelce on.
Swift this year will then play shows in Australia, Singapore and in the summer, will spend four months touring Europe.

And according to reports last week, Kelce has made some grand plans for Europe – with much of swift’s tour coinciding with his football offseason.
The 34-year-old has apparently booked trips to vineyards in Italy and tables for dinners at some of Europe’s finest restaurants for the couple to enjoy during her days off.
The Chiefs star could use his time in Britain to plan some adventures of his own, as well.
Recently, on the New Heights podcast that he co-hosts with his brother Jason, Travis suggested that they do live shows in Britain after learning they both have the top selling NFL jerseys there.
The latest that Kelce’s season will run to is February 11 with the Super Bowl, with teams then tending to report back for preseason in early August.
The couple went public with their relationship in late September last year when she arrived in Kansas City to cheer him on against the Chicago Bears in September 24. She sat next to his mom, Donna, for the duration of the game.
In her only interview since then, Swift said they had been spending time together up to then and were already a couple.

‘By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple,’ Swift told TIME magazine after they crowned her 2023’s Person of the Year.
‘I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date.
‘When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care.
‘The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone. And we’re just proud of each other.’
The sweet way Travis Kelce reacted to his mom’s TODAY show interview
Donna Kelce was hilariously tight-lipped when dishing on national news about her son’s new relationship.
As the news of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship spread across the internet like wildfire — here at TODAY.com included — the NFL player’s mom, Donna Kelce, agreed to an interview on national network television.
Donna Kelce sat down with TODAY ostensibly to discuss her “time to shine” as she finds herself in the spotlight as the mother of not one but two star NFL players. Of course, though, we couldn’t resist asking about her youngest son’s then-rumored relationship with one of the biggest pop stars in the world.
“It’s fairly new, so I don’t like to talk about it,” she said at the time. “It’s just one of those things where, you know, obviously everybody saw me. I was in the boxes with her and it’s just another thing that’s amped up my life.”
When asked if she thought it was a budding romance, she replied: “I honestly can’t tell you. It’s just too new.”
Later, when pressed, she famously said spending time with Swift when she attended a Kansas City Chiefs game “was OK.”
Now, in a new interview with WSJ. Magazine, Travis Kelce revealed that his mom was upset with herself for how she handled the question.
“Trying not to sound too enthusiastic, she came off underwhelmed,” the outlet reports. “Kelce, not wanting his mom to feel bad, immediately phoned her and assured her that she did a super job —adding that her green eyeglasses looked great.”
Travis Kelce told the magazine that he’d been uncharacteristically guarded with the media in the initial stages of their relationship.
“That was the biggest thing to me: make sure I don’t say anything that would push Taylor away,” he said.
These days, Donna Kelce told WSJ. Magazine that she feels more free to speak about her son’s relationship with Swift.
“I can tell you this… “He is happier than I have seen him in a long time…. And now I’m looking forward to their upcoming grandchild, she said, smiling brightly.
