On Sunday, March 2nd, Travis Kelce and his girlfriend Taylor Swift made a grand appearance at the 97th Academy Awards in Los Angeles. The night became even more unforgettable for Taylor, as she took home two Music Award nominations, cementing her place in Hollywood’s most prestigious night.
But the excitement didn’t stop after the awards ceremony. Following the Oscars, Travis and Taylor attended one of the most exclusive after-parties in Hollywood, where Travis, sporting a fresh new haircut, was photographed holding Taylor’s Oscar statuette. With his trophy in hand, Travis was seen dancing and celebrating the incredible achievement alongside some of Hollywood’s biggest stars, including Cord Jefferson and Tommy Alter. The moment captured not only his pride for Taylor but also his support and love as they celebrated together in style.
Though Taylor wasn’t pictured in the photos from the after-party, it was clear that she was with Travis throughout the night. Reports suggest that the “Anti-Hero” singer chose not to attend the Oscars after-party with her own industry peers, instead opting to join Travis at one of the most coveted celebrations in town, Madonna’s private bash in the Hollywood Hills. The event, known as The Bash, was the 17th edition of the exclusive gathering hosted by Gucci and represented by the “Ray of Light” singer, Madonna. Guests included Hollywood heavyweights such as Robert De Niro, Matthew McConaughey, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lenny Kravitz, and Salma Hayek, with a no-photos policy in place to ensure the exclusivity of the event.
While Taylor relished her time at the after-party, Travis didn’t waste any time unwinding after a tough season. The NFL star had recently gone on a romantic getaway with Taylor to Madrid before returning to celebrate at the Oscars and the after-party. Though Taylor wasn’t in the photos, it was clear that the couple was enjoying their time together, with Travis looking proud and content beside Hollywood’s elite.
As for Travis Kelce’s future in the NFL, rumors have been swirling after the Chiefs’ loss in Super Bowl 59 to the Philadelphia Eagles. However, Travis confirmed his intentions to return for at least one more season with the Kansas City Chiefs. Speaking with Pat McAfee, Travis shared that he couldn’t leave the game on a Super Bowl loss and was determined to get in the best shape possible to pursue his fourth Lombardi trophy. Travis, 35, capped off his 12th year in the league in 2024 with 97 catches for 823 yards and three touchdowns—his lowest receiving totals since his rookie season. Despite the Super Bowl setback, it seems like he has unfinished business with the Chiefs, as he embarks on another season of high hopes and hard work.
His teammates and family are already celebrating his return, with his brother Jason posting a hilarious clip from The Wolf of Wall Street on their podcast, New Heights, and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes showing his excitement with a viral GIF. The Chiefs’ social media also posted a fired-up TikTok video to announce Travis’s return, with the caption, “All right, nah”—a simple but powerful message for the season ahead.
For now, however, it was all about Taylor’s big win at the Oscars, Travis’s joyful celebration with her, and the pair continuing to live their lives to the fullest—balancing success in both their professional and personal worlds. Their night at Hollywood’s biggest party was a testament to their strong bond and the shared joy they bring to each other’s lives.
