Golden Tate performs classic Taylor Swift hit in front of Travis Kelce... after admitting to dreaming of dating pop star
NFL legend Golden Tate dug deep into Taylor Swift 's repertoire for a karaoke night in Las Vegas over the weekend.
The former wide receiver competed in Justin Timberlake 's 8am Golf tournament in Sin City alongside Jason and Travis Kelce, which culminated in a wild night out.
And when it came to hopping on the mic, Tate gave a nod to his fellow competitor Travis and the tight end's pop sensation girlfriend Swift.
The 36-year-old opted for a classic hit from the star's first self-titled album, performing a - rather off-key - rendition of 'Our Song.'
In a clip shared to social media, the retired wideout could be seen playing to the crowd as he sung along to the country music song - the third single from the songstress's 2006 album, 'Taylor Swift.'
While Travis could not be seen in the clip, it is believed that he was there to witness Tate perform his girlfriend's song.

He and Jason had been competing Timberlake's golf event at the luxurious Wynn hotel that raises money for charity.
The brothers were spotted joining in on the festivities Friday night, enjoying a boys' night at the poker table in Las Vegas.
Flanked by Justin Timberlake and his older brother Jason, the 35-year-old Chiefs star looked unrecognizable in a black cap and some rarely-seen glasses.
Prior to his appearance in Vegas, Kelce had not been seen for weeks outside of his weekly New Heights podcast appearance that he hosts with brother Jason.
He had been in Boca Raton, Florida, where Daily Mail had exclusively pictured him working out in the middle of the NFL offseason.
Meanwhile, even with Kelce present, Tate's choice of karaoke song should come as no surprise.
He previously revealed that he tried to shoot his shot with the singer back during his college days.
Tate, who last played in the NFL in 2020 with the New York Giants, tried to capture Swift's attention when she attended a Notre Dame practice in 2009 with Selena Gomez.
Tate, who was playing college ball with the Fighting Irish, admitted that he put extra effort into his practice in an attempt to catch her eye.
'That was my Fresshman yr!,' Tate's former teammate Robby Toma wrote on X back in 2023 after a photo of Swift at the practice resurfaced. 'During practice @ShowtimeTate mid practice caught a fade ball and ran over to her and introduced himself...Coach was pissed.'
And Tate confirmed the news, admitting he remembered it 'like it was yesterday.'
'Prolly my best practice of the year,' he added. 'Every pass I caught on her side, I made sure finished as if it was a TD. I had dreams of taking her to South dining hall!'
However, Travis, who has been dating the 14-time Grammy Award winner for almost two years, has nothing to worry about.
Tate married his wife Elsie back in 2017 with the couple since welcoming three children together.
Travis and Swift have been keeping a low profile since the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl heartbreak.
A source was recently quoted as saying by Us Weekly: 'Travis wants to take [a breather] from the public eye.
'He was working too much last year, and he didn't play as well as he wanted.
Kelce was back out on the course again on Saturday morning for another round of golf
'He wants to have a good season and not have the focus be on his relationship with Taylor.'
For his time out on the course, Kelce has tipped his hat to none other than Tiger Woods.
In his rounds on Friday and again when he reappeared on Saturday, Kelce was sporting clothing from the golfing great Tiger Woods's Sun Day Red clothing line.
His older brother Jason had a far more eclectic fit, combining a Hawaiian shirt with cutoff sleeves alongside a straw hat.
And while Travis had changed for his night at the poker table with JT, Jason was in the same outfit for the evening.
The older Kelce brother - not typically associated for his fashion sense - earlier this week announced the launch of his new clothing brand, Underdog, which he proudly announced will be completely American-made.
The Kelce brothers needed to get their practice in on the golf course, given that they are scheduled to play in a celebrity tournament at Lake Tahoe in July.

Beyonce suffers wardrobe malfunction as trousers drop mid-performance in London
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Beyoncé's performances at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium kicked off tonight, as the star smoothly handled a rather embarrassing wardrobe malfunction. The Grammy Award-winning musician kicked off the first of her six shows at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on June 5. The dates are her first UK shows since her Renaissance World Tour in 2023 so have been hotly anticipated by fans – but things took a slight turn during one performance. The icon was performing on stage in a gold jumpsuit, flanked on either side by backup dancers. A kick and hand dance movement caused a little bit of a problem as the singer's trousers suddenly fell to the floor. Ever the professional, Bey was unfazed as she continued to perform with her trousers around her ankles, and a dancer quickly ran over to rectify the situation. After tonight, Beyoncé will go on to perform on June 7, 10, 12, 14, and 16, following a string of dates across America, where she will perform tracks from her eighth studio album. While the stadium opened its doors to 62,000 fans, some are worried about the rainy conditions ahead of the gig. In the lead-up fans were metaphorically and literally preparing to dance in the rain, with many camping out in preparation. A TikTok posted by user Paolatravell shows countless fans in tents around the venue as early as 4am this morning. The show is set to go ahead regardless of the weather, something one American fan claimed is actually lucky. Fan Madeline DeFreece, who managed to not only survive the rain, but claimed it added to the show, told Metro: 'This show was meant to be performed in the rain. The way the fabric moved on the contemporary dancers — I could not imagine it any differently.' She continued: 'At one point the cowboys had a Magic Mike moment, thrusting the floor of the stage and immediately I turned to my friend and said, 'We are so privileged to be in such a time and place.' I mean it was hot and provocative in a way that I don't think Beyoncé nor her team planned for.' More Trending Madeline also added: 'I'd pay to see it again, I'd pay even more to see it again in the rain.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Blue Ivy has become a firm fixture of Beyoncé's dance crew, but the sight of rarely-seen Rumi hugging her mum on stage has reduced fans to tears during the tour's run. During her first appearance on opening night at the Los Angeles SoFi Stadium, the tot walked on in a gold dress with Beyoncé, who wore glittering gold and green plaid chaps and bodysuit, and her sister during the song, Protector. It's unclear if Rumi will be taking to the stage tonight, but rest assured the event will still be a family affair with Blue Ivy putting in a shift as a dancer. Got a story?

Dakota Johnson left feeling 'incredible pain' after split with Chris Martin
Dakota Johnson, who was in the popular Fifty Shades film series, was in a relationship with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin for nearly eight years until their split Dakota Johnson is has been left feeling "incredible pain" amid her split from Chris Martin, it is said. The 35-year-old actress, who was in the Fifty Shades film series and last year's Madame Web, was reportedly determined to make the relationship work but, after almost eight years together, the pair confirmed they've gone their separate ways. They found their relationship, which began in 2017, stalled, a source said. But the split is believed to have hit Dakota hard. A source told The Sun: "Dakota wanted this relationship to work. She not only loves Chris, but his two kids, and that loss feels incredibly painful. The decision to end things was amicable, but Dakota is finding it hard. Over the past year, it became clear that their relationship had stalled and wasn't moving forwards." Coldplay's epic world tour continues and Dakota has been away on shoots for upcoming films Materialists and Verity recently. It is thought their flourishing careers have provided challenges for their relationship. "Settling down, as in Chris properly taking his foot off the pedal, isn't going to happen. And, ultimately, it was one of the many straws that broke the back of them," the source continued. A sombre Dakota was last pictured in New York City on Wednesday hours before the split news broke, and without her engagement ring. However, the couple were hit by split rumours in August last year, speculation sources close to them denied. But now that decision has been reached with an insider confirming the "relationship had been over for a long time". Speaking earlier this week, the insider added: "They just haven't been able to figure out to make it official. Dakota held a flame for them to be together because she loved him so much and loved his kids so much. "Breakups aren't instant and they continued to breakup and makeup and sometimes things would work when they were away from each other, while they were working because absence makes the heart grow fonder, but then they'd get back together and little things just kept adding up to where they weren't right for each other anymore... Dakota is devastated that she isn't going to be around his kids as much anymore, but wants them to know that she is always there for them." Chris, 48, shares those two children with actress Gwyneth Paltrow, whom he married in December 2003. They divorced in 2016, a split Gwyneth described as "conscious uncoupling". The Grammy Award nominee, 52, has since gone on to marry writer and producer Brad Falchuk, whom Gwyneth met on the set of Glee when she had a recurring guest role in the musical comedy-drama.
