Travis Kelce Makes Taylor Swift Giggle With Surprise Song As Chiefs Secure Super Bowl Spot
NFL star Travis Kelce celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs’ AFC Championship victory Sunday by turning the clock back a half-century.
Kelce, a Chiefs tight end, sang a few lines of KC and the Sunshine Band’s 1975 classic “Get Down Tonight” at the end of an interview with CBS Sports’ Jim Nantz moments after helping his team defeat the Buffalo Bills 32-29, thus securing their spot at the Super Bowl for the third time in a row.
“Just do a little dance. Make a little love,” he playfully crooned.
Though Kelce’s musical, um, chops are no match for his athletic skills, his brief performance drew cheers and giggles from both his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, and his mother, Donna Kelce.

The Kansas City Chiefs could potentially make history next month when they face the Philadelphia Eagles at the 2025 Super Bowl in New Orleans. If they defeat the Eagles, they’ll become the first NFL team to win three Super Bowl titles in a row.
Though it’s been about a year-and-a-half since Kelce and Swift first went public as a couple, the media frenzy over their relationship shows no signs of subsiding.
In June of last year, Kelce joined Swift onstage at one of her Eras Tour concerts at London’s Wembley Stadium.
And last month, Swift made a surprise appearance at Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, where she posed for photos and signed autographs for young patients and their families.
And though the pair have largely avoided addressing their romance in interviews, Kelce did take time to single out a few of Swift’s songs as his favorites during a November episode of his “New Heights” podcast.
“I mean ‘Blank Space’ is a song that I’ll always listen to forever. It’s just unbelievable, everything about it,” he shared, before adding “Death by a Thousand Cuts” and “The Alchemy” to the list.
