Why Taylor Swift Fans Think She Serenaded Travis Kelce at Eras Tour With Meaningful Mashup
Taylor Swift is not dimming the spotlight on her love story.
The pop star seemed to give boyfriend Travis Kelce a sweet performance at her Eras Tour show in Germany on July 17, singing a mashup of "Invisible String" and "Superstar" as he watched from the crowd.
Taylor, 34, began with "Superstar," her Fearless track about falling for a popular heartthrob who is at the height of fame (rumored to be originally written about Joe Jonas).
"And you smile, that beautiful smile / And all the girls in the front row scream your name," she sang in her acoustic set. "So dim that spotlight / Tell me things like / 'I can't take my eyes off of you' / I am no one special / Just another wide-eyed girl / Who's desperately in love with you."
Taylor then launched into her folklore song "Invisible String," which is about being connected to a lover before they met. (Indeed, Travis and Taylor shared plenty of coincidental ties.)
"And isn't it just so pretty to think / All along there was some / Invisible string / Tying you to me?" the Grammy winner sang before ending the medley by adding, "Superstar."
The combination of songs had fans speculating she chose them to serenade the NFL star, who she's been dating since last year.
"The IMPLICATIONS of mashing up Superstar with Invisible String," one user wrote on X. "The superstardom that tied them together for years before they met...the inevitability of their mutual awe for each other....but the ability to see each other clearly through the haze of fame anyway...I am unwell."
As another fan put it, "I immediately had goosebumps! I love how her past songs were just meant to be for Travis, her prophecy."
But Travis is not the only one who has watched her take the stage around the world. Read on to see other celebrities who are guilty as sin of attending the Eras Tour.
