As Taylor Swift wrote in “This Love,” “Your kiss, my cheek.” As she wrote in “How You Get the Girl,” “pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks.” Suffice it to say, she knows a cheek kiss can be intimate, powerful, important. So, Swifties, take note: She just allowed herself to be photographed kissing Travis Kelce on the cheek again.
This is only the, what, third documented instance of PDA between the couple? Sure, reports say they're affectionate at parties (plus, there was that pic of her in his lap), and you can find grainy hug footage here and there, but as for verifiable, Taylor-knew-eyes-were-on-them-and-went-with-it moments, we have but a few. There was cheek kiss number one, as revealed by Chariah Gordon. The backstage run-into-his-arms kiss in Argentina. And now another cheek kiss at the holiday-decorated bar (maybe restaurant?) where they hung out after his December 10 game in Kansas City, Missouri.
And then, buried at the end of the post, this one:
Interestingly, when kiss number one debuted, it was also not the cover pic of the post. A request from Team Swift? Or do the posters just want you to swipe all the way through? I could and will think about this all day. Regan used his SwiftPic in a spon-con post, which is savvy AF, gotta say.
Meanwhile, elsewhere in Swiftland, I am absolutely convinced that Reputation (Taylor's Version) drops on January 1, 2024, because that's the message that was (barely) hidden in the Time clue sheet (“Beads with secret message”—we get it), the album ends with a song called “New Year's Day” and the Reputation Tour movie (a Netflix original) is leaving the platform at the end of December because Blondie for sure wants a fresh start.
Anyhoo, glad Traylor are happy!
The latest snap comes courtesy of Kelce's barber, Patrick Regan, who seems to have visited the tight end at home before the game and name-checked Swift in his Instagram post about the visit, writing, “Thanks @taylorswift for the Pics of the Gameday Freshy for @killatrav 🙌🏼❤️ I had an Amazing Time at Yesterdays Game 🏈 .” As if you needed more proof that Swift took the picture of Kelce getting a touch-up, it's got her memorable filter over it. IYKYK. Or as one commenter hilariously put it, “I recognise this f*ckass filter from anywhere, my beloved's camera 😭.”
