Jason Kelce Lifts Young Fans to Say Hi to Taylor ... & Other Shirtless Highlights

012224_jason_kelce_kal 1/21/24
HEY TAYLOR!!!
Storyful

Taylor Swift doesn't get upstaged very often -- but Travis Kelce's brother, Jason, may have done just that at Sunday's game ... where the dude was shirtless and ready to rage.

The Eagles center -- whose season is over after his team lost in the playoffs last week -- was hanging out with T-Swift and a bunch of other friends/family in a private suite at Highmark Stadium as Travis and the Chiefs took on the Buffalo Bills in a huge game.

You could tell JK was ready to party from the get-go, because pretty quickly ... he lost his shirt, and was going bare-chested through much of the game, crushing beers and roaring.

Of course, Tay-Tay was there next to him too ... screaming her head off, all while knocking back drinks with Brittany Mahomes and other gal pals in tow, like Cara Delevingne. From the looks of the photos of their celebration, they were having a damn good time in there.

Now, at one point when things settled down, some fans caught Jason's attention right below their box -- namely, young girls who apparently had some Swiftie signage they wanted to show off. Jason saw this, climbed down to them (again, shirtless) and obliged their request.

He picked both girls up and took 'em to the window, where they were able to wave hi to Taylor and everyone else inside ... and Jason was just playing everyone's cool uncle.

Pretty sweet moment, we must say ... the guy's totally comfortable, and so are the parents.

As for what Taylor, Travis and everyone else got up to after the game -- where everybody was riding high off of a nail-biting win -- there's a photo going around showing Trav and co. posing for a group pic.

The good times keep on rolling for this crew ... next stop, Baltimore. Then, maybe SB!

Patrick Mahomes Bills Fans Pelt QB With Snowballs ... After Playoff Win

Patrick Mahomes was forced to make a speedy exit from Highmark Stadium on Sunday night ... this after angry Bills fans continuously chucked snowballs at his head.

The Kansas City star was trying to celebrate the Chiefs' 27-24 divisional round win in Buffalo ... but when he got close to the crowd, Bills Mafia made him run for cover.

Video from the game's broadcast showed the flying objects came so often, Mahomes actually had to jet from the area while defending his head with his hand.

When he eventually got near a stadium tunnel to get into his locker room, he had to evade a few more snowballs too.

Fortunately for the quarterback, it didn't seem any tagged him too hard -- and he didn't seem too annoyed by the situation either, wearing a big smile nearly the entire time.

But, one of his teammates, Drue Tranquill, certainly appeared to be more than bothered by the matter.

The KC linebacker wrote on his X page that he almost threw a snowball of his own at a fan who heaved one his way ... before he fired off a jab at Buffalo's diehards.

"Truth is," Tranquill said, "my four year old throws a meaner snowball than #BillsMafia."

While the Chiefs escaped Buffalo unharmed ... they might have to face a similar issue this weekend -- they're slated to Baltimore in the AFC Championship on Sunday ... where snow could certainly be a possibility.

Taylor Swift, Brittany Mahomes Crazy For K.C. ... Rage In Suite During Chiefs' Playoff Win

Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes couldn't calm down as the Kansas City Chiefs punched their ticket to the AFC Championship Game on Sunday ... celebrating throughout the huge win with tons of shouting, drinks and impromptu photoshoots.

The two famous WAGs returned to their usual suite seats for K.C.'s Divisional Round matchup against the Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium ... and this time around, they had new company from Travis Kelce's All-Pro brother, Jason, his wife, Kylie, and Swift's gal pal, Cara Delevingne.

Naturally, the A-list box had plenty of booze for the occasion ... and Swift and Mahomes took advantage of that by giving each other a "cheers" before sipping some adult bevvies.

Mahomes documented the experience on her Instagram ... showing the whole group in great spirits as the Chiefs came away with the 27-24 victory -- and Swift was right in the middle of the pack for the shot.

Of course, Swift had a front-row seat for Jason's shirtless antics ... and cameras showed her absolutely stunned as he hopped out of the suite to make his way to the normies' section of the stadium.

The broadcast also cut to Taylor and Brittany after Kelce scored a key touchdown ... with the two hugging it out in celebration -- which was met with mixed reviews (after all, haters gonna hate, hate, hate).

Swift might be considered a good-luck charm at this point ... and TK clearly has her on his mind on the field, with many thinking he threw up some heart hands in her direction after one of his TDs.

The Chiefs will now travel to Baltimore to face off against the Ravens on Sunday ... and judging by Swift's warm welcome with Chiefs Kingdom over the course of the season, there's no way she's gonna miss that one, either.

We covered it all on the latest episode of The TMZ Podcast, available on all podcast platforms.

Taylor Swift Supporting Her Man in Buffalo ... Blowing Haters Kisses

UPDATE

5:52 PM PT -- Travis is clearly appreciative of his better half showing up to support him ... after he scored a TD, he seemed to blow a kiss and toss a "hand heart" up toward the suite where Tay's chilling with the fam.

His brother was freakin' stoked too ... though Jason went with a pretty different kind of celebration -- ripping off his shirt and downing a beer while the boos rained down on him!!!

3:17 PM PT -- So far, so good on the all-important "meeting" of the sibling ... Taylor and Jason look pretty comfortable chatting -- which makes you wonder if they've maybe hung out before.

Taylor Swift's landed in Buffalo and Bills Mafia is giving her a hard time ... but the pop star seems to be taking all the jeering in stride.

TS' beau's playing in chilly upstate New York this afternoon, and her arrival at Highmark Stadium received the requisite amount of fanfare ... lots of pictures, video and a little trash talk from the other team.

One fan screams out "Bills by a billion" and Taylor seemingly blows a smooch back to him in response ... pretty dang cool response for the megastar.

Tay's basically a pro at attending Chiefs games at this point ... she's been hitting them up regularly since September and even braved frigid temperatures to watch her man's first playoff game last week -- and seemed totally enthralled with him after.

And, there's another relationship milestone Taylor's reaching tonight ... a public appearance with Jason Kelce, Travis' brother, who plays for the Philadelphia Eagles and was spotted landing in Buffalo earlier Sunday. She's already been spotted with JK's wife Kylie ... so it shouldn't be too long.

As far as we can tell ... Taylor spent a ton of time with Travis' mom, Donna, and even hung out with his dad, Ed, but she and Jason have never been spotted hanging out publicly -- which doesn't mean they haven't had a covert meeting over the last couple weeks.

Now, Chiefs fans might not be so stoked on Taylor's appearance at the game ... remember, she pulled up for the match back in December where the Bills won by just three points -- and Patrick Mahomes had something of a meltdown after the L.

Of course, Taylor didn't cause that loss by any means ... but sports fans are superstitious -- so you just know she's gonna take a lot of flak if Josh Allen's squad can pull out a win.

Buffalo Bills Selling T Swift-Themed Food At Chiefs Game ... Karma Is A Quesadilla!!!

Bills and Chiefs fans with a blank space in their tummies are in luck this weekend  ... Buffalo's food service partner just revealed it's going to sell some Taylor Swift-themed snacks at the big game Sunday!!

Delaware North -- which has brought tasty treats to Highmark Stadium all season long -- announced this week it's packing two new options for the divisional round playoff game against Kansas City with odes to Swift in them.

One of the meals is called the "Bad Blood waffle fries" ... and it features two feet of fries topped with a grip of Buffalo and Kansas City food staples -- including blue cheese and BBQ pork.

The other option is named the "Karma Quesadilla" ... and it's got chicken tenders, bacon and pork belly all over it.

It's not quite clear if Swift will get the opportunity to enjoy the grub -- it hasn't been confirmed yet if she'll make the trek to Orchard Park to watch her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. But, considering she battled the snow to catch his game last weekend against the Miami Dolphins, it seems like it's a good bet.

What's interesting, the team has yet to make a food option with a nod to Josh Allen's GF, Hailee Steinfeld ... though something tells us if the home squad gets the win over K.C., Bills Mafia will not care less.

El primo de Taylor Swift afirma que fue el cupido en la relación con Travis Kelce

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce están muy enamorados estos días, y un familiar dice que tuvo algo que ver en esto.

Danny Frye III -que es un corredor de pista de tierra en Oklahoma- hizo una entrevista este fin de semana donde reveló que es primo segundo de Swift, y no solo eso, se está dando crédito de formar la pareja más famosa del momento.

TikTok/@FloRacingtv

Échale un vistazo, en la charla de Danny con FloRacing TV, confirmó que él y Taylor están relacionados por sangre, pero no es un pariente lejano al azar, según él, son cercanos y crecieron juntos.

Más importante aún, DF3 deja caer una bomba, diciendo que hizo una "conexión de amor" entre su prima y Travis, aunque en realidad no entra en detalles. Danny muestra una captura de pantalla de él y TayTay en un juego de los Jefes, por lo que no es totalmente mentira.

Es interesante que esto esté saliendo ahora, porque en noviembre, Travis contó cómo fue exactamente que él y Taylor se conocieron. Diciendo que alguien en su mundo hizo el papel de Cupido y sugirió fuertemente que podría haber sido alguien que lo conozca muy de cerca.

Algunos sospechaban que su hermano -Austin-, podría haber sido responsable, pero ahora, Danny dice que él es la razón por la que tenemos una de las parejas más grandes del último tiempo.

Una vez más, no hay detalles sobre cómo fue que todo pasó, pero no es difícil imaginarlo. Presumiblemente, Danny escuchó la historia de Taylor Travis en su pódcast y transmitió el mensaje.

El resto, como se suele decir, ¡es historia!

Taylor Swift 2nd Cousin Claims He Played Cupid ... I Set Her Up w/ Travis!!!

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are two peas in a pod these days -- but in terms of their initial coming-together ... her relative is now coming forward to claim he played matchmaker.

Danny Frye III -- who's a dirt track racer in Oklahoma -- did an interview this weekend where he revealed he's T-Swift's second cousin, and not just that ... but he's taking credit for setting up his uber-famous family member with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.

YOU'RE WELCOME, WORLD
TikTok/@FloRacingtv

Check it out ... in Danny's chat with FloRacing TV, he confirmed he and Taylor are, in fact, related by blood -- but he's not just some random distant relative ... according to him, they're somewhat close and grew up together.

More importantly, DF3 drops a bombshell ... saying he made a "love connection" between his cuzzo and TK -- although, he doesn't really get into the details much at all. Danny shows off a screengrab of him and TayTay at a Chiefs game ... so he's not totally BS'ing.

It's interesting this is coming out now -- 'cause back in November, Travis spilled the beans on how exactly he and Taylor got hooked up ... saying someone in her world played Cupid, and strongly suggested it might have been someone in her own brood who knew who he was.

Some suspected her brother, Austin, might've been responsible -- but now, Danny here is saying he's the reason we have one of the biggest, most famous couples in recent memory.

Again, no deets on how exactly it all unfolded -- but it ain't hard to piece together. Presumably, Danny heard Travis' Taylor story on his pod, and relayed the message.

The rest, as they say, is history!

Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce No Engagement In The Works, For Now

People really should pump the brakes on all the engagement talk between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce ... 'cause we're told a proposal isn't forthcoming in the near future either.

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... there's absolutely no engagement in the works between Taylor and Travis right now -- despite some reports suggesting they're racing to the altar. To the contrary, we're being told TK ain't getting on bended knee anytime soon.

There were rumblings this week people in Taylor's camp had T-Swift and Trav pegged for an early summer engagement, but we're being told that's just not the case. In fact, our sources tell us some folks on the inside of this don't think it'll go the distance.

We're told some members of their inner circles see Taylor and Travis as still being in a honeymoon phase, of sorts -- and they say it's just too early to tell if they'll ever advance past the dating stage.

Hear that ... that's the sound of Swiftie bubbles bursting, and premature wedding bells going silent.

Our sources also point out their about to enter a very challenging stage of their relationship --  Taylor's continuing her international tour starting in February, which will have her overseas for several months.

Of course, once his NFL season is over, Travis could join her at times -- but folks in their orbit are saying let's see how they deal with the really long distance before jumping to engagement talk.

THE FUTURE MRS. KELCE???
TMZ.com

Neither Taylor nor Travis has been engaged before, and it sounds like that won't change any time soon.

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce no se comprometen por el momento

La gente realmente tiene que calmarse al momento de querer un compromiso entre Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce, porque nos informan que no hay ninguna señal de propuesta en el futuro cercano.

Fuentes cercanas a la pareja le dicen a TMZ que no hay absolutamente ningún compromiso entre Taylor y Travis en este momento, a pesar de algunos informes que sugieren que están pensando en el altar. Por el contrario, nos dicen que Travis no tiene ganas de comprometerse por el momento.

Hubo rumores esta semana de que Swift y Trav habían planeado comprometerse a principios del verano, pero nos dicen que eso no es cierto. De hecho, nuestras fuentes nos dicen que algunas personas muy cercanas a la pareja pueden asegurarnos que esto no es así.

Nos dicen que algunos miembros de sus círculos íntimos ven a Taylor y Travis como si todavía estuvieran en una fase de luna de miel, y dicen que es demasiado pronto para saber si alguna vez avanzarán más allá de la etapa de citas.

Los swifties tendrán que tranquilizarse y silenciar las campanas de boda que hicieron sonar muy precipitadamente.

Nuestras fuentes también señalan que están a punto de entrar en una etapa muy difícil de su relación, Taylor continúa su gira internacional a partir de febrero, la cual la tendrá en el extranjero durante varios meses.

Por supuesto, una vez que su temporada de la NFL haya terminado, Travis podría unirse a ella por momentos, pero la gente a su al rededor dice que está por verse cómo se las arreglarán con la distancia.

Ni Taylor ni Travis se han comprometido antes, y parece que eso no va a cambiar pronto.

Brittany Mahomes publica fotos muy amistosas con Taylor Swift

Patrick Mahomes se dirige a la siguiente ronda de playoffs, pero la persona más feliz en casa es su esposa, Brittany, quien publicó un montón de fotos con su nueva amiga.

La madre de dos hijos y ex estrella de fútbol universitario compartió las fotos de la noche del sábado, donde los Chiefs ganaron 26-7 y la diosa del pop Taylor Swift hizo su aparición.

Taylor y Brittany hicieron una serie de poses que van desde lo lindo y coqueto a lo francamente cringe... y otra amiga cercana -Lyndsay Bell- también apareció en un par de fotos.

Mahomes hizo referencia a sus chaquetas combinadas que lucían los nombres de sus novios en la parte posterior. En su pie de foto decían: "Twinning & Winning💯".

Como ya sabemos, Brittany y Taylor entablaron una rápida amistad en medio del romance relámpago de Tay con Travis Kelce, quien es muy cercano a Patrick y la familia Mahomes.

Además de encontrarse en los juegos, el dúo dinámico ha salido varias veces, incluyendo cenas en Nueva York, donde Mahomes se codeó con celebridades como Selena Gomez y Gigi Hadid.

Más recientemente, los amigos (junto con Bell) cenaron en Spago en Los Ángeles el fin de semana pasado cuando los Chiefs llegaron a la ciudad para jugar contra los Chargers.

Esta intensa amistad ha atraído reacciones mixtas, recordemos el "saludo de amigas" que causó cierto cringe en octubre, pero al dúo no parece importarle lo que piensen.

De todos modos, el dúo parecía estar pasándola en grande durante el juego, aunque Taylor parecía demasiado preocupada coqueteando con su hombre.

Brittany Mahomes In Her 'Twinning' Era ... Matching w/ T-Swift!!!

Patrick Mahomes is headed to the next playoff round, but the happiest person in his household has to be his wife, Brittany ... who posted a crap load of photos with her new twin.

The mother-of-two and former college soccer star shared the pics from Saturday night's 26-7 Chiefs win where she posed with pop sensation Taylor Swift.

TS and BM hit a series of poses ranging from cute and flirty to downright silly ... and close friend and fellow WAG Lyndsay Bell hopped in for a couple pics too.

Mahomes made reference to their matching puff jackets -- emblazoned with the names of their footballing beaus on the back -- in her caption, writing "Twinning & Winning💯."

As you well know ... Brittany and Taylor sparked up a fast friendship amidst Tay's whirlwind romance with Travis Kelce, who is very close to Patrick and the Mahomes family.

On top of taking in games together, the dynamic duo have hung out several times including dinners in NYC ... where Mahomes rubbed elbows with celebs like Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid.

Most recently, the friends (along with Bell) grabbed dinner at Spago in L.A. last weekend when the Chiefs came to town to play the Chargers.

Some of their time together has drawn mixed reactions -- remember their "cringe" handshake during October -- but the duo doesn't seem to care what anyone thinks ... easy to do when you're part of the uber-rich.

Anyway, the duo seemed to have a good time during the game ... though Taylor seemed too preoccupied flirting with her man after to pay attention to anything else!

Taylor Swift se quedó mirando a Travis Kelce mientras salían de la mano del estadio Arrowhead de Kansas City el sábado por la noche.

La superestrella del pop parecía totalmente enamorada de su galán Travis -el ala cerrada de los Kansas City Chiefs- quien tuvo una fácil victoria de 26-7 con sus compañeros de equipo sobre los Miami Dolphins en el partido de comodín de la AFC.

Échale un vistazo al video... Taylor estaba totalmente pegada a Travis, luciendo gafas de sol y pantalones de cuero negro. En otro ángulo desde atrás, se les pudo ver tomados de la mano. Taylor lucía una chaqueta de los Chiefs con el nombre de "Kelce" y su número de la NFL "87".

Taylor también hizo una gran entrada -como de costumbre- siendo escoltada en un carrito de golf a la zona VIP para que pudiera ver a Travis desde su suite del estadio.

El video la muestra rodando en su carro con chofer, saliendo y paseando por seguridad y un montón de medios de comunicación con cámaras.

Durante el partido, Taylor fue grabada interactuando con otros fans de los Chiefs en las gradas, animándolos y chocando los cinco con ellos. Estaba sentada justo al lado de la madre de Travis, Donna, y la esposa de Patrick Mahomes, Brittany.

Taylor ha sido una habitual en los partidos de la NFL de Travis desde que confirmaron que eran pareja en septiembre de 2023 e incluso antes de eso, cuando se rumoreaba que estaban saliendo.

Tras la victoria del sábado, los Chiefs jugarán ahora contra los Buffalo Bills o los Pittsburgh Steelers que se enfrentan el lunes en el partido de los playoffs de la NFC.

Taylor Swift stared all googly-eyed at Travis Kelce as the power couple walked hand in hand out of Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium Saturday night.

The pop superstar seemed totally enamored by her hunky beau Travis – the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, who rolled to an easy 26-7 victory with his teammates over the Miami Dolphins in the AFC wild card game.

Check out the video ... Taylor, decked out in her red Chiefs jacket, is totally glued to Travis, sporting cool sunglasses and black leather pants. In another angle from behind ... the two are holding hands as the back of Taylor's coat is in full view -- emblazoned with the name "Kelce" and his NFL number "87."

Taylor also made a grand entrance – as usual – getting escorted in a golf cart to the VIP area so she could watch Travis from her stadium suite.

Video shows her rolling up in her chauffeured cart, stepping out and strolling past security and a bunch of media types with cameras.

During the game, Taylor was filmed interacting with other Chiefs fans in the stands, cheering and high-fiving with them. She was sitting right next to Travis' mom Donna, and Patrick Mahomes' wife, Brittany -- who all did a little dance in the suite.

Taylor has been a regular at Travis' NFL games since they confirmed they were an item in September 2023 – and even before that when they were rumored to be dating.

After Saturday's win, the Chiefs will now play either the Buffalo Bills or the Pittsburgh Steelers who face off together Monday in the AFC playoff game.

Brett Favre If Chiefs Don't Make SB ... Fans Will Blame Taylor Swift!!!

010924_brett_favre_packers_chiefs_kal
THIS WILL LIGHT A FIRE
TMZSports.com

Gear up, Swifties ... Brett Favre tells TMZ Sports if the Chiefs don't make this year's Super Bowl -- fans WILL blame it all on Taylor Swift!!

Favre, of course, doesn't think it's right ... but he says, like it or not, it'll come if Travis Kelce and Kansas City aren't able to compete for the Lombardi Trophy next month.

"If they don't win it," Favre said, "or get to the Super Bowl, people are going to say, 'That's why.'"

Swift, needless to say, is used to it by now ... after all, people have deemed her a K.C. curse for weeks -- as her new boyfriend and the Chiefs only won five of their last 10 regular season games.

But, good news for her and the rest of Chiefs Kingdom ... Favre tells us he believes Kansas City -- despite being the No. 3 seed -- should still be considered the favorite to come out of the AFC's side of the bracket.

"Until Andy Reid is unseated as the champion," Favre said, "I have to see it to believe it."

Kansas City will begin its quest to win its second straight title later Saturday ... when it kicks off its wild card round game in frigid temperatures against the Miami Dolphins.

Fingers crossed, Swifties!!

We aired new footage showing her squabbling with her slain BF, Christian Obumseli, 2 months before she killed him at their Miami condo ... which prosecutors claim she did intentionally.

Lots of folks online viewed Clenney as the aggressor in the wild clip -- but we break down how it could have an impact on a far more important group of people ... the jury.

On a muuuuch lighter note, we also talked Tom Cruise on "TMZ on TV" and his big movie news this week -- the fact he signed a mega deal with WB to produce and star in a bunch of franchise films ... even as he's moving forward on "Top Gun 3."

The catch ... he's doing 'TP3' with Paramount, despite seemingly giving 'em the cold shoulder to sign with WB, and even getting his own office there. Yeah ... interesting.

Travis Kelce I'm Not Retiring After Season!!!

011224_travis_kelce_kal
THINKIN' ABOUT THE FUTURE
Kansas City Chiefs

No, Travis Kelce will not stop playing football and ride off into the sunset with Taylor Swift after this season ... he just revealed he has zero intentions of retiring anytime soon.

The Kansas City Chiefs star made it clear to reporters during a news conference Thursday that he will not hang up his spikes once the final whistle blows on this year ... despite speculation from many online.

"I have no reason to stop playing football," he said. "Man, I love it."

Of course, Kelce kind of sparked the rumors himself ... when he said in an interview in 2023 that he had given thought recently to what life after football would be like.

However, Kelce shut down all that talk Thursday ... telling media members, "I just love the challenge [football] gives me every single day to try to be at my best."

Kelce is coming off of his worst statistical season since 2015, failing to record 1,000 receiving yards for the first time in seven years. He's also completely blown up off the field, starring on "Saturday Night Live" and in various commercials. And, of course, he's dating the most famous pop star on the planet.

Yet still, he says he's not ready to give up the game just yet.

"I have no desire to stop anytime soon," he said.
