Travis Kelce walked into a restaurant a few hours after the shooting at the Kansas City parade -- this according to new photos obtained by TMZ.

We obtained 3 pictures that show the KC Chiefs tight end walking into the Granfalloon Restaurant and Bar Wednesday night -- and as you can see, he was spotted by some police officers on hand who wanted a selfie.

Travis obliged, and eyewitnesses say he then went inside the restaurant ... joining other teammates, we're told. Looks like he had a beer in hand.

We're told the pics were snapped a little before 7 PM CT -- which we've confirmed on our end as well, checking the metadata -- and that would be several hours after shots rang out near Union Station just earlier in the day ... just after the Chiefs parade wrapped up.

Travis was singing Garth Brooks tunes during the celebration ... before things turned deadly. Someone (or more than one) opened fire near the crowd that hung around in the aftermath, resulting in at least 1 dead, and 22 others who suffered gunshot wounds.

Travis addressed the shooting on X. ... "I am heartbroken over the tragedy that took place today. My heart is with all who came out to celebrate with us and have been affected. KC, you mean the world to me."

His team also addressed the shooting ... writing, "We are truly saddened by the senseless act of violence that occurred outside of Union Station at the conclusion of today's parade and rally. Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and all of Kansas City."

They noted that all of the players, coaches and staffers were safe and accounted for.

Most Chiefs players have spoken out about the shooting as well. As far as who else might've been at the Granfalloon with Travis ... unclear.

Eleven kids between the ages of 6 years old and 15 years old suffered wounds during Wednesday afternoon's shooting at the Chiefs' Super Bowl parade, officials say.

Lisa Augustine, a spokesperson for Children’s Mercy Kansas City, said in a statement to TMZ Sports the hospital treated 12 patients after at least one gunman opened fire at Union Station following the championship festivities in K.C. -- and of those dozen, 11 were children.

Augustine added that nine of the 12 sustained gunshot wounds.

Thankfully, the hospital rep said, "All are expected to recover."

So far, law enforcement says 22 people in total were struck by gunfire just minutes after Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce had addressed the massive crowd that had gathered to celebrate their recent victory over the San Francisco 49ers.

At least one person, authorities said, died in the shooting.

Cops say three people have been detained in connection with the attack ... although no motive has been revealed. An investigation remains ongoing.

The Chiefs said in a statement they're "truly saddened by the senseless act of violence that occurred outside of Union Station at the conclusion of today's parade and rally."

"Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and all of Kansas City," they added.

4:45 PM PT -- A bit of good news ... an official at the local children's hospital tells us the 11 minor patients they are treating, ages between 6 and 15, are expected to survive. 9 of the victims were treated for gunshot wounds.

3:26 PM PT -- Kansas City officials just held a press conference and the scale of this mass shooting ... and it was much larger than anyone thought.

For starters, there are a total of 22 gunshot wound victims at this point ... and 7 of them have suffered life-threatening injuries -- way more than what was initially reported.

3 individuals have been detained at this point ... but it's unclear if they've been arrested and charged with anything just yet. The cops say that one of people detained stemmed the viral tackling that went around on social media -- where an apparent AR-style rifle was seized.

At least one person was killed in the shooting.

3:11 PM PT -- We're now learning more about the victims from this shooting -- a majority whom are apparently children.

Multiple reports are pouring in that say of the 12 patients at a local hospital -- 11 of them are children ... and 9 of those 11 have gunshot wounds.

2:37 PM PT -- As it turns out ... an AR-style rifle may well have been used during this shooting -- something you can now see clearly in zoomed-in footage of a man getting tackled.

In the clip below -- where bystanders take a man down and pin him until cops arrive -- you see a woman in white pick up what appears to be a clear firearm ... and from the looks of it, it's a long rifle. The gun itself seems to be black -- but it's unclear if it belonged to the person who was tackled.

A lot of questions still need to be answered ... and cops are looking into it. On the face of it though -- this could've been a lot worse than it already was.

The Chiefs also addressed the tragedy ... saying, "We are truly saddened by the senseless act of violence that occurred outside of Union Station at the conclusion of today's parade and rally."

"Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and all of Kansas City."

The team added it will continue to stay in contact with law enforcement and local officials ... and shared their appreciation to all the first responders who took action.

New video, obtained by TMZ, shows the moment a flurry of shots rang out at the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl victory rally.

You hear someone in the crowd scream out, "Patrick f**king Mahomes," seemingly in celebration of the Chiefs' victory. Then, in the distance, you hear a series of gunshots ... appearing to come from either an automatic or semiautomatic weapon, based on the rapid fire.

People then scramble for safety and victims fall to the ground.

At least one person was killed and authorities say 10 to 15 people were injured. None of the players, coaches or staffers were injured in the shooting.

Two people are in custody in connection with the shooting.

Several people in the crowd had eyes on someone who they believed was one of the shooters. You see them run and then tackle that person to the ground ... while another bystander seems to grab what looks like a rifle, moving it away from the scrum until police arrived on the scene.

The shooting occurred just after the parade ended.

Police do not know the motive.

La aparición de Justin Bieber en el show del Super Bowl estuvo muy cerca de haber ocurrido, pero simplemente no estaba en las estrellas, por lo que dice Lil Jon.

Hablamos con el rapero en TMZ Live el miércoles y nos dice que Justin Bieber en realidad estuvo considerando subir al escenario junto a Usher, su antiguo mentor para la gran actuación, pero al final decidió pasar porque significaba mucho para él.

Lil Jon añade que todos querían que Biebs estuviera en el show, pero los ensayos, la responsabilidad, el tiempo y los ojos puestos en él no eran algo que quisiera enfrentar en este momento, y como todos vimos, optó por relajarse en el público con su esposa Hailey.

Por supuesto, los fans estaban deprimidos de que no le hubiera dicho que sí a Usher.

Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Ludacris y will.i.am terminaron subiendo al escenario junto a Lil Jon, así que no es que los fans no tuvieran artistas de la lista A durante su actuación de 13 minutos. Y aunque Justin no estaba allí, Lil Jon dice que igual estaba apoyándolo.

Sin embargo, no se puede negar que este dueto habría añadido una capa extra de magia al espectáculo, sobre todo porque fuimos los primeros en contarles que estaban en conversaciones directas para llevar a cabo el momento que habría sido recordado por muchos años.

Por si no lo saben, Usher ayudó a catapultar a Bieber a la fama y este ha estado trabajando desde entonces, así que por su parte, parece que todavía necesita un descanso de las actuaciones.

Justin Bieber's Super Bowl Halftime appearance could've very nearly happened ... but it just wasn't in the stars, so says Lil Jon.

We spoke to the rapper on TMZ Live Wednesday ... and he tells us JB was actually considering taking to the stage for his former mentor Usher's big performance ... but ultimately decided to sit it out 'cause it was just a lot for him to take on.

LJ adds they all wanted Biebs in the show ... but all the rehearsals, responsibility, time, and eyeballs on him apparently wasn't something he wanted to tackle right now ... and as we all saw Sunday, he opted to chill in the audience with his wife Hailey.

Of course, fans were bummed he didn't say yeah to Usher.

Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Ludacris, and will.i.am ended up hopping onstage alongside Lil Jon, so it's not like fans were deprived of an A-list line-up during Usher's 13-minute-long performance. And while Justin wasn't up there ... Lil Jon says he was still supporting him.

Still, there's no denying that the hyped-up JB/Usher collab would've added an extra layer of magic to the spectacle ... especially since we were first to break the story they were in direct talks of executing the moment that would've been remembered for years to come.

In case you didn't know, Usher helped catapult fresh-faced 13-year-old Bieber to massive fame back in the day ... and he's been working overtime ever since, so from his end, it looks like he still needs a break from performing.

Travis Kelce appeared to be just a wee bit drunk at the Chiefs' Super Bowl parade Wednesday ... slurring his way through a rendition of "Friends In Low Places" -- before Patrick Mahomes had to snatch the microphone away from him.

The hundreds of thousands of Kansas City supporters in attendance at Union Station couldn't wait for the tight end to hop on the mic at the championship celebration -- and, initially, it looked like he was going to deliver a speech for the ages.

The 34-year-old started to lead the crowd in a chant that accompanies the Tomahawk Chop ... before he called an audible, and tried to get everyone to sing Garth Brooks' hit song along with him.

Quickly, however, it became apparent Kelce was a little too overserved to get through the whole tune ... as he mixed up words and stumbled repeatedly.

He tried to make things right by going to his phone for the lyrics ... but even that didn't seem to do the trick.

Ultimately, Mahomes bailed him out by singing the song's chorus ... before he gave up -- and handed the microphone off to the show's host.

Up until that point, most of the rest of the Chiefs seemed fairly composed -- Mahomes spoke to the crowd about getting back to this point next season ... while star defensive end Chris Jones guaranteed he won't be moving on from Kansas City in free agency.

As for where Kelce goes from here, it's unclear ... as his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, is in Australia -- while he's obviously in need of some water and a nap.

Travis Kelce is addressing one of the Super Bowl's most viral moments -- when the superstar TE nearly knocked head coach Andy Reid flat on his ass -- publicly beating himself up for his actions, admitting it NEVER should've happened.

"It’s definitely unacceptable and I immediately wish I would have took it back," Trav told brother Jason on the newly released episode of their "New Heights" podcast.

Thankfully, there doesn't appear to be any hard feelings between coach and player ... T.K. says he had a conversation with Reid on the field soon after the incident, and they're cool. Winning the Super Bowl also doesn't hurt.

“I just love playing for the guy and unfortunately, sometimes my passion comes out where it looks like it’s negativity but I’m grateful that [Andy] knows that it’s all because I want to win [the Super Bowl] with him more than anything,” Travis added.

Jason, who used to play for Reid in Philadelphia, was also critical of his brother's actions.

"You crossed the line, I think we can both agree on it," JK said, with Travis ... "I did."

Jason added ... "Let's be honest, the yelling in his face too is over the top. I think there's better ways to handle this, retrospectively."

Of course, Travis and Andy go back to 2013 when both men arrived in Kansas City.

Not everyone seems willing to just brush off the exchange and move on ... including some fellow NFL stars like A.J. Brown, who claimed he "would've been kicked out of the league" if he pulled a Kelce.

Travis seems unbothered by the outside criticism.

"I don't give a s*** what anybody else says."

Inside the org, everything appears to be great ... in fact, Reid and Kelce are together at the parade as we type.

Travis Kelce está abordando uno de los momentos más comentados en el Super Bowl y fue cuando la superestrella de los Chiefs casi golpeó al entrenador Andy Reid en su trasero, admitiendo públicamente que eso NUNCA debería haber sucedido.

"Es definitivamente inaceptable y desearía haberme retractado inmediatamente", dijo Trav a su hermano Jason en el recién estrenado episodio de su podcast "New Heights".

Por suerte, no parece que haya rencores entre el entrenador y el jugador. Travis Kelce dice que tuvo una conversación con Reid en el campo poco después del incidente, y que están en buenos términos. Ganar el Super Bowl tampoco hace daño.

"Me encanta jugar para él y, por desgracia, a veces mi pasión aparece y da la impresión de que es algo negativo, pero estoy agradecido de que [Andy] sepa que todo es porque quiero ganar [el Super Bowl] con él más que nada", añadió Travis.

Jason, quien solía jugar para Reid en Filadelfia, también criticó las acciones de su hermano.

"Cruzaste la línea, creo que ambos podemos estar de acuerdo en ello", le dijo Jason Kelce,  a lo que Travis respondió: "Lo hice."

Jason añadió ... "Seamos honestos, gritarle en la cara también es exagerado. Creo que hay mejores maneras de manejar esto, retrospectivamente ".

Por supuesto, la relación de Travis y Andy se remonta al 2013, cuando ambos hombres llegaron al Kansas City.

No todos parecen dispuestos a simplemente dejar pasar el intercambio y seguir adelante, incluyendo algunos compañeros de la NFL como A.J. Brown, quien afirmó que él "habría sido expulsado de la liga" si empujaba a Kelce.

A Travis parecen no importarle las críticas externas.

"Me importa una m*** lo que digan los demás".

Dentro de la organización, todo parece estar muy bien. De hecho, Reid y Kelce están juntos en el desfile mientras escribimos.

It's clear to Jason Kelce that his brother, Travis, is completely smitten with Taylor Swift ... saying this week that the two are "people in love."

The Chiefs tight end's big bro slipped the comment in during the latest episode of "New Heights" ... while talking about the massive party everyone had following Kansas City's Super Bowl win on Sunday in Las Vegas.

Travis and Jason were laughing about how the elder Kelce lost his mind after discovering a Chiefs-colored luchador mask on a dance floor ... before they started talking about how hysterical it looked on him while they were at XS Nightclub.

Travis brought up one scene from the party in particular ... when he was with Swift on the side of the stage while Jason was in the DJ booth with Marshmello, waving his arms around like a mad man.

Travis couldn't stop giggling about it -- and that's when Jason dropped the L-word into the convo.

"On this side," Jason said of the now viral video of the situation, "two people in love and enjoying the moment together -- panning to a complete Neanderthal who is no longer connected with modern-day society."

Travis didn't remotely attempt to deny any of it ... chuckling through it all.

Of course, Jason is confirming what we had already known ... as hot mics caught Travis telling Taylor following the AFC Championship Game last month, "I love you."

Taylor Swift has finally arrived in Australia ahead of a string of shows -- and as she landed around midnight (locally) ... she had a bunch of fans waiting for her right outside.

The pop star's private jet landed in Melbourne early this morning -- this after she went from L.A. to Hawaii, and then continued on down under overnight -- and as she touched down at the airport ... there were onlookers ready to greet her with a warm welcome.

Take a peek yourself ... as the plane hit the runway, paps and fans alike were perched and prepared to get a glimpse -- heck, there were even airport workers out there lining the fence!

More interestingly, though, was the fact that a decent-sized crowd had formed not too far from Taylor's jet ... basically, it was a bunch of kids/teens with signs for her -- and they were out there cheering on the fact she was stepping foot onto their turf.

Clearly, Swifties are international and all over the place -- and there's no shortage in Australia.

This marks the first major move Taylor's made since her big Super Bowl weekend -- where she partied the night away with Travis Kelce all over Vegas following the Chiefs' win.

While Travis' season might be over ... Taylor's work life is kinda just beginning after a major hiatus through the holidays. She's got a crap ton of shows lined up in the coming months -- and this stop in Melbourne is the first of many to come.

There's already been reports that Travis is going to accompany Taylor for at least some of these shows ... but it's unclear if he's gonna head out to Australia himself in the coming days.

He did say last week that he'd love to go visit down undah if he got the chance. After his Super Bowl parade in Kansas City today, he'll have nothing but time on his hands.

Taylor Swift ha llegado finalmente a Australia antes de una serie de conciertos en el país y aunque aterrizó cerca de la medianoche (local), ¡tenía a un montón de fans esperándola!

El jet privado de la estrella del pop aterrizó en Melbourne esta mañana, después de que se fuera de Los Ángeles a Hawái, y luego continuara su viaje por la noche. Cuando finalmente arribó en el aeropuerto había varios curiosos listos para recibirla con una cálida bienvenida.

Echa un vistazo tú mismo. Cuando el avión llegó a la pista, los paparazzi y los fans estaban encaramados por igual y preparados para verla, ¡incluso había trabajadores del aeropuerto alineados en la valla!

Más interesante, sin embargo, es que una multitud de un buen tamaño se formó no muy lejos del avión de Taylor. Básicamente, eran un montón de niñas y adolescentes con carteles para ella y estaban celebrando que la estrella estuviera pisando su territorio.

Está claro que los Swifties están por todas partes y en Australia no faltan.

Este es el primer gran movimiento que hace Taylor desde su gran fin de semana en el Super Bowl, donde se fue de fiesta con Travis Kelce por todo Las Vegas después de la victoria de los Chiefs.

Aunque la temporada de Travis terminó, la vida laboral de Taylor acaba de empezar tras un paréntesis importante durante las vacaciones. Ella tiene un montón de conciertos en los próximos meses y esta parada en Melbourne es solo la primera de muchas.

Ha habido reportes de que Travis va a acompañar a Taylor en al menos algunos de estos espectáculos, pero no está claro si va a ir a Australia por su cuenta en los próximos días.

Jason Kelce missed every bit of Usher's halftime show on Sunday ... saying the chaos surrounding Taylor Swift during the break in the Super Bowl's action forced him to find cover elsewhere.

Travis Kelce's big brother made the revelation on Wednesday's episode of "New Heights" ... explaining so many celebs tried to get to Swift at halftime of the Chiefs vs. 49ers game at Allegiant Stadium, that he simply could not catch "a lick" of Usher's big performance.

"There was so much happening in the suite," the Philadelphia Eagles star said. "Turns out, everybody wants to meet Taylor."

Jason said the A-listers looking to chat with the "Love Story" crooner included Shaquille O'Neal ... and at point, so many people were there trying to grab her ear that it all got "overwhelming."

"I mean, dude," Jason said, "I think it was my first really understanding of kind of some of the things she has to deal with on a lot of basis. Because there was so many star-studded people there, where it's like, 'Dude, everybody wants to come see her,' but the suite's only so big."

Jason implied, though, that Taylor handled it all with flying colors ... something that didn't surprise Travis one bit.

"Taylor thrives in those situations," Swift's boyfriend said on the podcast. "She's been in them countless times in her life."

Patrick Mahomes' wife is pulling out all the stops to get right in time for the Chiefs' Super Bowl parade on Wednesday ... having an IV stuck in her arm for some rapid rehydration.

The Chiefs players and their significant others have been taking advantage of their right to party after defeating the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas ... going on what appears to be a multi-day bender at this point.

Brittany shared a glimpse of the measures she's taking to reach 100% (or at least close enough to start drinking again) ... getting some much-needed IV therapy before riding through the streets of Kansas City in a few hours.

"Saving me always," Mahomes said on Instagram alongside a pic of the treatment -- which has become a popular move for party-goers in recent years, as it helps with hangovers.

Of course, the Chiefs deserve to go all-out in their celebration ... and it seems like they did just that -- Patrick appeared to be struggling while doing interviews at Disneyland on Monday, and Mecole Hardman told us on Tuesday he hadn't gotten any sleep yet!!

Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce made their way through the streets of Kansas City to celebrate the Chiefs' Super Bowl ... but it's their teammate, Willie Gay, who was by far the MVP of the day.

The parade went down on Wednesday ... and the victors did it big as they partied with Chiefs Kingdom.

Gay set the bar high early on in the parade ... going shirtless, running and dancing -- even hopping on a car to give fans a better view of his vibe.

Gay also dropped to the ground at one point -- holding a bottle of Henny as he lay shoeless in the street.

Of course, the Coors Light, liquor and bubbly flowed from start to finish (hey, it's 5 o'clock somewhere) ... and some players did a cheers with Casamigos tequila prior to the festivities.

Mahomes popped the top, too ... but he elected to put a jacket on (maybe out of fear of what the dad bod trolls would say).

Donna Kelce acted as Cupid for the parade ... passing out roses to folks in the crowd in honor of Valentine's Day.

The Bears may not sniff a Super Bowl for a while, but a teddy bear mascot head made a cameo for some reason ... with multiple players rocking it throughout the event.

To really lean into the animal theme, Isiah Pacheco and Mahomes had some time with a real baby goat wearing a No. 15 jersey!!

Kelce also had a freakin' blast -- getting a piggyback ride at one point in the bash!!

As we previously reported, the fans lined up in the early hours of Wednesday to prepare for the event ... braving the cold for their beloved team.

Matt Damon is disavowing the most talked about Super Bowl ad -- at least creatively, and instead he's laying blame/giving credit to his BFF Ben Affleck.

Of course, Matt and Ben teamed up with Tom Brady to hilariously debut their boyband, The DunKings, for the splashy Dunkin ad -- which cost $15 mil just for the airtime -- all sporting bright orange tracksuits.

The spot was the standout Super Bowl Sunday commercial, but Tuesday night, when 'Late Show' host Stephen Colbert showed Matt a pic of him in the DunKing getup ... he immediately made it crystal clear he wasn't the brains behind it!

TBF, it does have "Ben Affleck" written all over it.

MD did own this detail ... at the end of the commercial he tells Ben, '"Remember how I said I would do anything for you? This is anything" -- a line he actually said IRL to his pal.

He says Ben just decided to put it in the ad.

Matt jokingly acknowledged being in The DunKings wasn't exclusive to the Boston trio ... 'cause the only qualification needed to be in the band was the willingness to slide into those visually loud tracksuits.

Though, it seems like dressing the part ain't an issue for lots of coffee and donut lovers ... as Dunkin' sold out of the tracksuits in just 19 minutes after going up for sale on their site.

In fact, demand's so high that new stock is on the way ... with the track pants listed for pre-sale.

Dunkin's SB spot certainly seemed to sweeten the deal for them -- with staff from various DD locations telling us they've busy as hell since Sunday.

Matt Damon está renegando del anuncio más comentado del Super Bowl, al menos creativamente, y en su lugar le está echando la culpa a su mejor amigo Ben Affleck.

Por supuesto, Matt y Ben se asociaron con Tom Brady para formar la pandilla The DunKings para el impactante anuncio de Dunkin, que costó 15 millones de dólares solo por el tiempo de emisión, y todos vistieron chaquetas de color naranja brillante.

El anuncio fue uno de los más destacados del Super Bowl, aunque cuando Stephen Colbert, presentador de "Late Show" le mostró a Matt una foto con el atuendo de los DunKings, ¡dejó claro que no fue el cerebro detrás del anuncio!

Para ser justos, el anuncio tiene escrito "Ben Affleck" por todas partes.

Matt Damon dice que aportó con un detalle al final del anuncio, cuando le dice a Ben: "¿Recuerdas que te dije que haría cualquier cosa por ti? Esto es cualquier cosa", una línea que de verdad le dijo en la vida real a su amigo.

Y que Ben decidió incluirla en el anuncio.

También reconoció en broma que estar en The DunKings no era exclusivo del trío de Boston, porque el único requisito necesario para ser parte de la banda es la voluntad de ponerse esos buzos naranjos.

Ahora, parece que vestir estas prendas no es un problema para los amantes del café y las donas. Solo 19 minutos después de que salieran a la venta, los conjuntos se agotaron.

De hecho, la demanda ha sido tan alta que están en camino nuevas acciones, como por ejemplo, la pre-venta de los pantalones del conjunto.
