Excuse Me as I Melt at Travis Kelce's Reaction to Taylor Swift's VMAs Shoutout

Taylor Swift casually made history at last night's VMAs after securing Artist of the Year for the second year in a row *and* becoming the most-awarded solo artist in the show's history with 30 awards. She took home 7 of the 12 Moon Person awards she was nominated for—including Video of the Year for her Tortured Poets track, "Fortnight" featuring the internet's favorite sweetie pie, Post Malone. How! Ever! Tay took a minute during her acceptance speech to shout out *her* favorite sweetie pie, Travis Kelce.

"It actually was the most fun video to make," Taylor said of the music video. "Something that I’ll always remember is when I finished a take and I’d say 'cut,' and we’d be done with that take, I would always hear someone cheering from across the studio where we were shooting it." She then revealed, "That one person was my boyfriend Travis." 🥹

The singer-songwriter continued, saying, "Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic, so I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that."

Not too long after the sweet on-stage moment, MTV posted an Instagram Reel of Taylor online with the caption, "One person ONLY cheers louder for @taylorswift than I do – and that’s @killatrav #VMAs." And whomst might be in that post's likes, you might ask? That'd be @killatrav himself, giving a subtle and sweet reaction to her shoutout.

According to Page Six, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end couldn't make it to the famous awards show due to his practice schedule as football season is upon us. "[Travis] had to be back in Kansas City by Tuesday for practice," a source explained to the outlet. Hopefully, he can make it to next year's show (and perhaps host alongside Tay?). Siiigh, a girl can dream!
