Taylor Swift fans are buzzing with excitement over the pop icon’s recent onstage gestures that they believe might have “manifested” her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce’s first touchdown of the season. As the Kansas City Chiefs secured a 27-20 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, Kelce caught a scoring pass that sparked a social media frenzy among Swift’s loyal fan base, who connected the moment to her playful performance the night before.
On Saturday, Swift was performing her hit “Midnight Rain” in New Orleans during the Eras Tour when she made a touchdown gesture with her arms, prompting cheers from the audience. This seemingly light-hearted moment became a point of intrigue, with fans posting the video on social media and joking that Swift’s energy might have played a role in Kelce’s big game moment.
The video clip quickly made the rounds, with one enthusiastic fan even predicting a Kelce touchdown the following day, tweeting, “Okay! Travis Kelce TOUCHDOWN tomorrow 💪💪💪.” When the Chiefs tight end delivered his first touchdown of the season the next day, fans humorously credited Swift’s gesture for “manifesting” the play, with some even dubbing it “Tayvoodoo.”
Fans Go Wild for “Tayvoodoo”
Sunday’s game saw Kelce making a notable touchdown catch, his first in 13 games, a streak-breaker that thrilled Chiefs fans and Swifties alike. One fan on social media captured the enthusiasm, saying, “Taylor Swift does this at her show last night and then Travis Kelce scores his first touchdown in 13 games? Tayvoodoo is real confirmed.” Others joined in, with comments like, “You just knew it was going to happen today,” as they celebrated both Swift’s showmanship and Kelce’s touchdown.
Swift’s gesture wasn’t the only hint of football enthusiasm during her concert. The “Bad Blood” singer gave another nod to Kelce earlier that weekend by pretending to throw an imaginary football from the stage, entertaining the crowd and adding fuel to the “Tayvoodoo” fire. This playful moment led fans to tag Kelce on social media, with one post saying, “@tkelce what sort of tiny football is she throwing please help her.” Another fan joked, “TRAVIS CATCH THE BALL,” playfully keeping up the NFL spirit during her concert.
Chiefs’ Winning Streak and Swift’s Support
Though Swift has been busy with her Eras Tour and hasn’t attended Kelce’s recent games, her supportive gestures seem to have lifted fans’ spirits just as much as the Chiefs’ victories. Kansas City is on a winning streak, recently defeating the San Francisco 49ers 28-18, which has only added to the excitement surrounding Kelce’s touchdown and the influence Swift may have had on his performance.
Swift and Kelce have been linked since the summer of 2023, sparking widespread interest in their relationship among fans of both pop music and sports. Although Swift couldn’t attend Sunday’s game due to her tour schedule, her recent concert appearances have not been without familiar faces. Her close friends Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds attended her New Orleans shows over the weekend, along with one of their daughters, sharing in the excitement of Swift’s concert experience.
Eras Tour’s Final Leg and Swift’s Playful Moments
As Swift approaches the last leg of her Eras Tour, set to conclude on December 8 in Vancouver, fans are already eagerly anticipating more memorable concert moments and hopeful hints directed at Kelce. The energy surrounding Swift’s shows has extended beyond music, especially with the “Tayvoodoo” enthusiasm sparked by her playful touchdown gesture.
