Travis Kelce showed his full support for his girlfriend Taylor Swift during her Eras Tour performance of “So High School,” which includes football references.
Swift, 34, held her fourth and last concert in Paris on Sunday, May 12, which was also the first one on the European leg that Kelce, also 34, attended. Before performing “So High School,” Swift even blew a kiss in Kelce’s direction.
The NFL star danced to all of Taylor Swift's biggest hits on Sunday, but "So High School" holds a special place as one of the first songs seemingly about their love story. Social media footage captured Kelce singing along to all the lyrics of "So High School."
In the song "So High School," Swift sings about truth or dare, spinning bottles, and knowing how to have fun while also referencing Aristotle. The lyrics mention new beginnings, going all in, and the excitement of being together while friends play video games. It's a fun, catchy song that reflects the joy of being in love.
The song "So High School" is believed to tell the story of Taylor Swift and Joe Kelce's relationship, which started in the summer of 2023. This romance made Swift feel young again after going through breakups with Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy. (Songs about Alwyn, 33, and Healy, 35, can also be found in TTPD.)
During the European leg of the Eras Tour, Swift decided to include a section dedicated to TTPD songs. After singing "But Daddy I Love Him," Swift and her dancers transition from the center stage to bleachers that resemble a stadium for the performance of "So High School."
While Swift sings, her dancers showcase moves inspired by Kelce's touchdown celebrations on the football field. Additionally, the backup performers imitate Swift's facial expressions from her appearances at Kelce's games.

Swift has attended 13 of Kelce's games, including the Super Bowl in February, since they began dating. It is believed that these games also influenced Swift's song "The Alchemy."
Kelce is also a fan of Swift's music, enjoying the entire Tortured Poets Department Anthology.
Travis had the chance to listen to everything before it was officially out. He truly admires her work and fully supports the fact that being with her also means embracing her music. According to a source in April, he is confident and completely okay with it.
Taylor Swift has written more songs about Kelce besides "So High School" and "The Alchemy". According to an insider, there are other songs inspired by Travis, but they were not produced or included in any album. These songs were kept private and have not been released yet. Swift keeps a journal and writes songs regularly.
After the TTPD set, Taylor Swift transitioned to her acoustic section. During her 87th show, she performed a mash-up of “The Alchemy” and “Treacherous” from her album Red. Social media footage captured Kelce dancing along to this surprise song combination.
