Travis Kelce has become a central figure at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour performances in Paris. Swifties enjoy his presence on the shows as much as they love Swift's singing. This is why a simple video of the NFL star heading backstage to look for Taylor Swift after a show quickly went viral.

Swift launched the European leg of her record-breaking tour in Paris on May 9, delivering four sold-out shows at La Défense Arena, with Kelce attending the closing performance on Sunday night.

The pop icon made notable alterations to her set, for her to pay homage to her footballer boyfriend.

Swift premiered live performances of seven tracks from her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, alongside a selection of fan-favorite songs, such as "But Daddy I Love Him," "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived," "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?," and "So High School," which is presumably inspired by her relationship with Kelce.

According to People magazine, in a nod to Kelce's NFL team, Swift also donned the Kansas City Chiefs' colors with a gold crop top and a red skirt during the 1989 segment of her sold-out concert.

She delighted fans with performances of several tracks from her beloved LP, including "Blank Space," "Shake It Off," and "Bad Blood."

Sunday's event marked the tour's 87th stop, a number echoing Kelce's jersey number for the Kansas City Chiefs. The tight end has consistently been in the spotlight at Swift's recent concerts, with his latest viral moment occurring as he made his way backstage during her performance of "Karma," the closing number of Sunday's show.

A video was shared on X, formerly Twitter, by user @SwiftNYC, known for providing updates about Swift. The caption read, "Travis heading backstage for Taylor as the 87th Eras Tour show comes to an end."

As of the time of writing, it had garnered 268,000 views already. For such a simple video of Travis Kelce just walking without Taylor Swift even on sight...this is a mean feat.

Swifties expressed their admiration for Kelce in the comments, with one fan writing how his outfits are usually so on point now and do not disappoint.

"Travis just keeps getting hotter, my God, he looks good," remarked another.

A third person chimed in, calling it "iconic."

This isn't the only time Kelce has caught attention during the show.

In another clip shared on X, Kelce can be seen dancing to Swift's hit song "Karma" as fans cheered. He interacted with the crowd, smiling as they offered high-fives and joined him in dancing.
