Taylor Swift Brings Travis Kelce Onstage at London Eras Tour Stop!
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are Eras tour official!
The superstar chose to blow her fans' minds Sunday by including the Kansas City Chiefs tight end in her show during the transitional number before "I Can Do It with a Broken Heart" from her "The Tortured Poets Department" album.
With no warning, Travis — who has been in attendance at all her London shows — emerged with her other backup dancers in a tux, causing the crowd to go wild with cheers.
Grinning broadly, he nimbly kicked up his heels as if to make sure nobody missed the surprise.
As part of the choreography, he even carried her, as if over a wedding-night threshold. She was all in white.
Touchingly, Travis carries her right after performance of "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived," a pure heartbreak number. Just like in real life, Travis was there to help Taylor pick up the pieces.
Oh, she went there — and she brought him! Fans noted that Taylor did this in London of all places — could that be significant given her ex Joe Alwyn is from there? "TTPD" features the heart-wrenching breakup ballad "So Long, London," which is thought to be about their relationship crumbling.

The moment exists in the show to allow Taylor, who is stripped to a white two-piece outfit and then given a tailored white tux jacket with tails, to change looks between songs.

Kelce also pretended to touch up her face with some powder as part of the scene, and busted a few dance moves.

The whole VIP tent, including Taylor's mom Andrea Swift, Sophie Turner, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Andrew Scott cheered wildly when Travis returned after his performance.
Taylor gave Travis a sweet shoutout on her Instagram on Monday, posting, "I’m still cracking up/swooning over @killatrav’s Eras Tour debut 🥰"
Taylor and Travis, both 34, have been dating in August 2023, and have been Topic A ever since.
Travis told "Extra's" Billy Bush in April that he is "comfortable" with all the media attention. He said, “I think it was all the home videos my mom used to have with the old camcorder, the handheld joint, at the house. I just always felt comfortable with the camera on me and the lights on me… I love a good challenge. I get excited for a challenge. Something that I haven't done before is something that really makes me focus… and there's something about that that I got a love for.”
