Taylor Swift is seemingly showcasing her love for Travis Kelce yet again!
On Sunday, Oct. 27, the “Fortnight” hitmaker, 34, appeared to pay tribute to her romance with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, in New Orleans as she referenced his famous first down hand gesture while performing her 2022 track “Midnight Rain” in a fan-captured video shared on X (formerly known as Twitter).
At her third and final Eras Tour Caesars Superdome gig, Swift followed up the pose by seemingly hinting at a potential three-peat Super Bowl win for the Chiefs, kissing her three middle fingers before holding them up in the air.
Swift did the hand gestures after singing the lines, “And he never thinks of me / Except when I’m on TV.”
The gestures came on the same night Kelce scored his first touchdown of the season against the Las Vegas Raiders in a 27-20 win after previously admitting to having a slow start this year. Meanwhile, Swift was 1,700 miles away performing on stage.

The Chiefs have been on a 7-0 winning streak this season, and Swift’s three-finger gesture might signal she believes they could win their third consecutive Super Bowl in February 2025. Earlier this year, the team beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22, and in 2023, they were victorious over the Philadelphia Eagles with a 38-35 score.
“taylor swift just did travis kelce’s first down signal on stage and then sealed it with a 3-peat finger kiss send-off to manifest another superbowl win like you simply cannot make this s— up,” another fan captioned a video showing Swift’s hand gestures on X.

This isn’t the first time Swift has seemingly made a nod to Kelce during “Midnight Rain.” On Friday, Oct. 25, she mimed throwing a football as she sang the same lines at the New Orleans venue, per a fan video on X.
Sunday also saw Swift once again change the lyrics to “Karma” to reference Kelce amid his first touchdown, with the “Anti Hero” singer singing “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me,” in a video shared by PEOPLE’s Brian Anthony Hernandez on X.
The New Orleans Saints, whose stadium Swift was performing at, posted a special welcome to the pop superstar before her arrival on their Instagram: a stadium-sized friendship bracelet.
Swift’s fans began adorning themselves with handmade friendship bracelets to swap with fellow fans following the release of Swift’s Midnights song “You’re On Your Own, Kid,” which includes the lyrics, “Make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it.”

New Orleans was Swift’s second stop after picking the Eras Tour back up following finishing the international leg of the tour in August at London’s Wembley Stadium. Miami was the first stop on Oct. 18 for the remainder of her Eras Tour in North America, with the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” musician debuting four new ensembles at the show, including a sparkly snake bodysuit designed by Roberto Cavalli.
Swift will now perform at the three remaining cities left on her Eras Tour: Indianapolis Nov. 1-3, Toronto Nov. 14-23 and Vancouver Dec. 6-8.
