Travis Kelce holds hands with ‘significant other’ Taylor Swift as she dazzles in shimmery dress and helps raise $80K at Vegas charity gala
The 34-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end convinced the 34-year-old pop star – dazzling in a shimmery dress – to donate four tickets to her Eras Tour for the live auction emceed by professional auctioneer Harry Santa-Olalla.
‘I was just talking to my significant other,’ said Travis onstage, affectionately referring to Taylor. Travis Kelce and his famous girlfriend Taylor Swift enjoyed a glamorous weekend in Las Vegas where they held hands at the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation benefit inside MGM Resorts on Sunday and helped raised funds for needy children. ‘And we might have one other auction item that wasn’t on the docket – has anyone heard of the Eras Tour?
Santa-Olalla revealed the tickets raised ‘an incredible $80,000′ for Patrick Mahomes’ non-profit organization, ‘which improves the lives of children in need of health and wellness resources.’ Swift shared a table with Patrick’s wife Brittany Mahomes and the ladies looked amused as the 28-year-old Kansas City Chiefs launched a football over the heads of the black-tie crowd.
Kelce triumphantly caught the ball clear across the other side of the ballroom, and each autographed football was later auctioned off for $10K each. The gala also featured a performance from a local Elvis Presley impersonator. 15 and the Mahomies Foundation also hosted its Vegas Golf Classic as part of the weekend-long, Coors Light-sponsored celebration.
‘It’s your boy, holla at your boy. You feel me?’ the three-time Super Bowl champion said in a cringey video recap where he also flashed finger guns. Travis and the 14-time Grammy winner will celebrate their one-year anniversary of dating in July. Taylor isn’t scheduled to resume her $1B-grossing, 152-date sixth concert tour until May 17 at Sweden’s Friends Arena in Stockholm.
Swift has just two more archival albums (Taylor Swift and Reputation) to re-record after losing the rights to the first six of her master recordings by her underhanded ex-manager Scooter Braun.
