Travis Kelce Makes Rare Public Appearance in the Streets of New York City for Photo Shoot
The Kansas City Chiefs star, 35, was spotted during a photo shoot on the streets of New York City on Thursday, May 1 in a rare public sighting since the Chiefs' loss to the Eagles in the Super Bowl.
Kelce was sporting an all-white ensemble for his closeup: a white sweater with green details, white jeans and white sneakers. The tight end finished his look with aviator sunglasses and a camouflage tote bag.
In one image, Kelce is seen walking across the streets of New York with one hand in his pocket and the other carrying the bag.
In another, the NFL star is sitting on a vintage Chevrolet Chevelle SS as the photographer takes his photo.
Kelce looked dapper in the all-white look, but it remains unclear what he was shooting the photos for that day.

Kelce has been staying mostly out of the public eye since the Super Bowl loss in February. Most recently prior to the photoshoot, he competed in the 2025 8AM Golf Invitational with his brother Jason, who was making his first trip "out of the house in a long time" since the birth of his and wife Kylie Kelce's daughter Finnley "Finn" Anne in March.

The NFL star was joined by singer Justin Timberlake and comedian Andrew Santino during an outing on the course where the guys captured some silly content of Kelce showing off his moves and lip-syncing skills. In the clip, which was set to Midnight Star's 1984 song 'Curious,' Travis moved to the beat and used his golf club as a microphone.

The video was originally posted on Timberlake's Instagram, with the musician joking about being one of Kelce's supporting stars. 'We are just @killatrav's backup dancers now,' his caption read under the video.
Since the Super Bowl loss in February, with girlfriend Taylor Swift in attendance, the couple has been intentional about their time off, a source told PEOPLE in April.
"They have been traveling nonstop and very much enjoy it," the source shared. "They are making the most of their time off together. They are hanging out with friends, too. It's a special time for them."

Taylor Swift Confirmed to Make Guest Appearance on Travis Kelce's ‘New Heights' Podcast
If you guessed Taylor Swift as the mystery guest on the upcoming episode of the New Heights podcast, give yourself a pat on the back. After teasing Swifties on Monday morning, the Jason- and Travis Kelce-hosted podcast confirmed the pop superstar, who is also famously dating Travis, would be making an appearance on Wednesday's episode.

Harry Potter Full Cast Audiobook to Star Hugh Laurie, Matthew Macfadyen; Trailer Revealed Marc Maron Jokes He's "Not Afraid to Die Anymore" as Long as This Taylor Swift Song Is Playing 'Taylor's about to do a f*cking podcast!' the podcast captioned the episode's teaser on Instagram. In the clip (below), a smiling Swift also tells Travis, 'Such a nice color on you.' The NFL star, who is seen wearing a blue shirt, responds, 'Yes, I know. It's the color of your eyes, sweetie. It's why we match so well.' Kelce and Swift have been romantically linked since the late summer of 2023, with their relationship going public in September of that year. While fans don't know exactly how and when they got together, Swift previously confirmed that they started dating shortly after Kelce mentioned her on his New Heights podcast in July 2023. At the time, he talked about his failed attempt to give the singer a friendship bracelet with his number on it at her Kansas City Eras Tour stop. Since then, the 'Fortnight' singer has regularly been seen attending the tight end's Kansas City Chiefs games during NFL seasons, cheering on her man from the stands with friends and family always nearby. Kelce also popped up at Swift's Eras Tour shows throughout its nearly two-year run to support his girlfriend, singing along to her songs in the crowd, wearing friendship bracelets and all. During one of her shows in London in 2024, the football star even made a surprise appearance onstage during a performance of 'I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.' After the Eras Tour wrapped in December 2024, the pair maintained a low profile as they continued to grow their connection, making occasional public appearances for date nights and events. Fans also waited for years for the couple to make their red carpet debut, and they finally did in June 2025, but in their own casual style, at the opening night ceremony for Kelce's Tight End University in Nashville.

Taylor Swift Reveals New Album ‘The Life of a Showgirl' in Teaser for Travis Kelce's Podcast
Taylor Swift is officially entering her next era, with the superstar announcing her latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, during a teaser for an upcoming special episode of Travis and Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast on Wednesday. The new album — her 12th studio effort since her 2006 debut — marks Swift's first new project since releasing The Tortured Poets Department in April 2024. Just over a year later, that album is already six-times-platinum, according to the RIAA, and it was nominated for album of the year at the 67th Grammy Awards. More from The Hollywood Reporter Travis Kelce Admits Hollywood Calling Might Have Hurt His NFL Game Depeche Mode Concert Film Gets October Theatrical Release Date Taylor Swift Confirmed to Make Guest Appearance on Travis Kelce's 'New Heights' Podcast Earlier on Monday, a countdown started on Swift's official website, with it expiring at 12:12 p.m. ET. At that time, a new teaser for the upcoming New Heights episode — which will feature the pop superstar as a guest — dropped on her Instagram. In the clip, Swift, who is sitting next to her boyfriend Travis, tells Jason, 'So I wanted to show you something.' She then whips out a mint green briefcase with her initials written in the color orange on the front. She then confesses, 'This is my brand-new album, The Life of a Showgirl.' Jason then proceeds to yell in excitement, as Travis shouts, 'TS12.' Swift did not share the album's release date, and the cover art was also blurred out in the teaser, leaving room for more surprises. The post also includes the caption,' Posted at 12:12 on the 12th. Tay's 12th album is called………… pre pre-order now at New Heights teased Swift's special appearance on the podcast earlier Monday, confirming a special guest online and posting an anonymous silhouette. The podcast later confirmed in a teaser on Instagram that the singer was, in fact, the special guest on Wednesday's episode. Swift has kept a low profile in 2025 compared to the past several years since she wrapped her record-breaking Eras Tour at the end of 2024. Though she made waves back in May when she announced that she'd finally secured the purchase of the rights to her early master recordings. That ended one of the most contentious disputes in music business history, which had begun when music executive Scooter Braun bought the rights to Swift's first five albums via an acquisition of her former record label Big Machine in 2019. (Braun sold her masters to Shamrock Capital a year later, with Swift making a deal with the company this year.) 'This was a business deal to them, but I really felt like they saw it for what was to me: my memories and my sweat and my handwriting and my decades of dreams,' Swift said of the deal at the time. Still, even as that controversy courted drama, Swift turned it into a lucrative chapter in her career with the 'Taylor's Versions' of her original albums, which helped elevate her superstardom and, in several cases, outsold the originals. Like all of Swift's releases, the new album will almost assuredly be a chart monster as well, as she is perhaps the only artist left in the business who could reliably sell a million units in one week alone. (2022's Midnights debuted with over 1.5 million units sold in its first week, while last year's The Tortured Poets Department opened with a massive 2.6 million units.)

Travis Kelce Opens Up About Taylor Swift Romance: 'It Just Took the F*** Off'
Travis Kelce says all those entertainment industry opportunities might have hurt him on the field. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end says in a new interview that Hollywood calling in the wake of his popularity explosion over the last couple years came at a price after his team came up short at the Super Bowl LIX in February. More from The Hollywood Reporter Taylor Swift Reveals New Album 'The Life of a Showgirl' in Teaser for Travis Kelce's Podcast Taylor Swift Confirmed to Make Guest Appearance on Travis Kelce's 'New Heights' Podcast How to Watch the 2025 U.S. Gymnastics Championships Online Free 'Win a Super Bowl is the only goal,' Kelce told GQ. 'It's the only goal. It's every goal. I think it might have slipped a little bit because I did have a little bit more focus in trying to set myself up. And opportunities came up where I was excited to venture into a new world of acting and being an entertainer. I don't say this as 'I shouldn't have done it.' I'm just saying that my work ethic is such that I have so much pride in how I do things that I never want the product to tail off, and I feel like these past two years haven't been to my standard. I just have such a motivation to show up this year for my guys.' Kelce might be a tad hard on himself here. The man has gone to the Super Bowl five times and won three — including in 2024. On the other hand, only he knows if he truly gave the last couple seasons his all. Over the last two years, Kelce took a gig as a game show host for Prime Video's Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity, took a dramatic turn in the Ryan Murphy FX thriller Grotesquerie and had a role in the current Netflix hit Happy Gilmore 2, among other gigs. In the interview, Kelce also discussed his relationship with Taylor Swift on the eve of a highly anticipated New Heights podcast episode (which drops Wednesday at 7 p.m.) where Swift is set to discuss her new album, The Life of a Showgirl. As for his relationship with Swift, the NFL star said he admires the athleticism she displayed on her Eras Tour, saying her effort surpasses what NFL players go through. 'She will never tell anyone that she is an athlete,' he said. 'But I've seen what she goes through. I've seen the amount of work that she puts on her body, and it's mind-blowing … [Swift's performance] is arguably more exhausting than how much I put in on a Sunday, and she's doing it three, four, five days in a row.' Also, that he values having a partner who 'who understands the scrutiny, understands the ups and downs of being in front of millions.' Added Kelce: 'Whenever I'm with her, it feels like we're just regular people. When there is not a camera on us, we're just two people that are in love. It can be perceived as something else because of how much it is talked about and how much we are tracked whenever we do go out, but I would say that it's as normal of … It happened very organically even though from a media standpoint it was being tracked. It still happened very organically … we fell in love just based off the people we were sitting in a room together with. We are two fun-loving people who have the morals to appreciate everyone for who they are. We share all those values. It kind of just took the fuck off.'
