Taylor Swift ended her mega successful Eras Tour on Sunday night but not without a final tribute to her NFL star boyfriend Travis Kelce.
The 34-year-old pop megastar – who also made her presence known in the Kansas City Chiefs star’s suite – made sure to shoutout the tight end, 35, during her final performance at BC Place in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada on Sunday.
Swifties were very excited as she once again referenced Travis when performing Karma.
As she has done for a lot of the tour, she belted out ‘Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me’ to replace the original lyric, ‘Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me’.
The original line from the 2022 was a referenced to actor boyfriend Joe Alwyn whom she dated from 2016 to 2023.
The swap was first made in November 2023 during her concert in Buenos Aires at the Estadio River Plate stadium.
Fans were delighted to hear this for the last time as one took to TikTok to post it with the caption: ‘We got ONE LAST “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs.” AHHH!’
Swifties were delighted by the shoutout as one commented: ‘The way you can always hear her smile when she says [the line]. [three smiling with tears in eyes emojis]. She deserves this kind of love [revolving hearts emoji]’
This comes as it was revealealed that the Eras Tour brought in $2.2 billion in its nearly two-year run.
The impressive number makes the highest-grossing tour of all time for a second year in a row, Pollstar estimates from data collected across 149 shows.
This came after the megastar opened up about her decision to keep extending her record-breaking Eras Tour ahead of final show while taking the stage in Vancouver on Saturday.
One day before preparing to wrap her tour after 21 months and 149 shows, the pop star took a moment to thank her beloved fans for making this such a ‘wonderful experience.’
‘This is the most fun, joyful, exciting, intense, powerful and wonderful tour I have ever done, and that’s all because of the way that you have treated it,’ she told the sold-out crowd.
The 14-time continued: ‘There’s a reason why this is my longest tour I’ve ever done. I’ve never played this many shows on a tour before, and it’s just cause I really never wanted it to end, because you guys have made it into such a wonderful experience for all of us on stage.’
The Fortnight hitmaker praised Swifties for creating their own unique ‘traditions’ including making and trading friendship bracelets which each other.
‘I wrote one line in a song that mentions ‘make the friendship bracelets,’ and I show up to the first show of the Eras Tour, and you guys made friendship bracelets, you’re trading friendship bracelets, you’re making friends, and now I feel like, friendship bracelets, you’ve kinda made that idea synonymous with the Eras Tour,’ she said. ‘That’s a pretty wild thing you can do — and that’s just one of the things.’
Earlier in the show, she also reflected on how much the tour has meant to her.
‘This tour has taken up three years of my life, when you think about the planning of it and then the rehearsals and then being on this tour for a year and eight months,’ the performer gushed. ‘I just keep thinking when I look at this crowd how incredibly happy and grateful and fortunate we are to get to spend our last weekend here in Vancouver.’
Earlier this week, a source told Us Weekly that the performer plans on taking an extended break so she can focus on relaxing and spending time with her boyfriend Travis Kelce.
‘She’s told her team to give her one year,’ the insider revealed.
Another source said of Taylor’s plans for the next few months: ‘Taylor plans to stay in and hibernate for a while. They [Taylor and Travis] want to do ‘normal things’ as a couple …
‘Taylor’s exhausted. She’s excited for some relaxation and downtime.’
The first source added the singer is planning to enjoy a quiet Christmas with family.
Adding that the superstar won’t start thinking about recording another album until 2025.
The insider noted that she does want to tour again but it won’t be for a while and it will likely be on a smaller scale than The Eras Tour.
The ‘Anti-Hero’ singer will have played 149 shows across five continents by the time trek wraps up in Vancouver.
Taylor played six dates in Toronto before Thanksgiving and the singer admitted she’s getting emotional as the tour draws to a close.
In a post on Instagram, she wrote: ‘Our 6 shows in Toronto were so incredible. It was awesome to play in Canada after so much time. As always, the fans in Toronto treated us like it was a hometown show.
Adding: ‘Couldn’t have asked for more love or generosity from the people who came out.’
‘See you, Vancouver. We can’t wait to give you all we’ve got for three more shows,’ she concluded.
Travis, who was raised in Ohio, and Taylor’s rumored romance was confirmed on Sunday, September 24, 2023 – after she attended her first Chiefs game – as they took on the Chicago Bears.
It’s not clear exactly when the two began seeing each other in person, but Travis had revealed on his July 26th New Heights podcast episode that he had hoped to introduce himself to Taylor when he attended one of her Eras Tour stops.
He attended night two of her Eras tour stop in Kansas City – July 8th – while in a suite.
‘I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings, so I was a little butt-hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her,’ he said.
They took their romance to the next level in mid-October 2023, posing for loved up snaps on Instagram.
Taylor and Travis’ romance has continued to go from strength to strength.
