Taylor Swift References Travis Kelce at Final Eras Tour Show

Taylor Swift gave a shout-out to the “guy on the Chiefs” at her final Eras tour show, even though Travis Kelce wasn’t in attendance for the concert. The pop star made her famous “Karma” lyric change at the Sunday, December 8, show, despite usually reserving it for when Travis is in the crowd.

“Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me,” Taylor, 34, sang during the closing song, which is a change from the original lyric of, “Karma is the guy on the screen, coming straight home to me.”

Taylor, 34, first made the lyric change in November 2023 when Travis, 35, attended the Eras tour as her boyfriend for the first time. She has since sung it every time the NFL star has been in the audience at one of her shows, but rarely makes the change when Travis isn’t there.

However, the “Cruel Summer” songstress likely got word that Travis and the Chiefs added another win to their résumés while she was performing on Sunday night. The Chiefs brought their record to 12-1 with a 19-17 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. The win allowed the team to clinch the AFC West for the ninth year in a row.

Now that the Eras tour is over, Taylor is likely free to attend more of Travis’ upcoming games. She’s already made it to several Chiefs home games this season in between shows, most recently showing up at the post-Thanksgiving game on November 29. Her appearance came after she and Travis reportedly spent Thanksgiving in Nashville with both of their families.

Taylor’s final concert in Vancouver was an emotional night for the Grammy winner, her dancers, band and backup singers. She acknowledged the end of the tour by performing a gut-wrenching mash-up of the songs “Long Live,” “New Year’s Day,” and “The Manuscript,” finishing the acoustic section of the show by performing the lyrics, “Now and then I reread the manuscript, but the story isn’t mine anymore.” She also changed a lyric in “Long Live” to say, “It was the end of an era, but the start of an age.”

“We have had so many adventures. It has been the most exciting, powerful, electrifying, intense, most challenging thing I’ve done in my entire life,” Taylor said at the beginning of the show. “We’ve gotten to perform for over 10 million people on this tour. And tonight, we get to play one last show for you here tonight in beautiful Vancouver. We’re gonna make it count.” Later, she added, “This tour has been the adventure of a lifetime. I speak on behalf of my band, my fellow performers who all left their families and have spent time away from everything that they know and love and have performed when they were sick. When anything was going on in their lives, they made sure that this show [came] through [for] you and I just wanted to say that on behalf of all of us, we will never forget you giving us that moment.”
