Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made surprise cameos during the 49th season premiere episode of Saturday Night Live as the NFL pro joined a sketch that poked fun at his very public romance with the singer. 

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, caused a frenzy in the audience as he suddenly appeared on the show – which was hosted by SNL alum, Pete Davidson, 29, following the end of the WGA strike late last month.

The humorous skit kicked off as a Fox NFL Sunday pregame show, with comedians Kenan Thompson, Mikey Day, James Austin Johnson, Molly Kearney and Devon Walker taking on roles as hosts – with Davidson later also showing up in the skit.

The group was preparing for the game against the Philadelphia Eagles vs. the New York Jets. ‘It’s week 7, and if any Taylor Swift fans are watching, the Chiefs game was on Thursday, you just missed her,’ Thompson began.

The hosts shared a laugh, with Mikey’s character, Howie Long, stating, ‘Listen, sorry Swifties, this is a show about football. It’s a sport. Ask your dad.’

‘All right, all right. Let’s get into the game and stop yapping about Taylor and her little boyfriend,’ Kenan added. However, everyone else at the table suddenly let out small gasps of shock, while also muttering, ‘Woah.’

‘Boyfriend?’ Mikey Day asked. ‘Hold on there, no one said boyfriend. Let’s no jump to conclusions here.’

James – who played Jimmy Johnson – added, ‘Yeah, yeah. They’re hanging out. They’re taking their time, and I think that’s great.’

Kearney, who portrayed Terry Bradshaw, stated, ‘Jimmy, I really have to disagree. She’s in the luxury box hanging with mama Kelsey, knocking back cocktails with Deadpool, folks, they’re official,’ referencing to the Chiefs vs. Jets game where swift brought along her A-list friends, including Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds.

James then responded with, ‘Hey, I’m just glad it’s not Matty Healy,’ referencing to The 1975 frontman who the Grammy winner was briefly linked to in May. ‘Oh! Don’t say that name, no!’ Day yelled.

Devon – who played Michael Strahan – then added, ‘Hey, look, I just want to say whatever it is, I want to say to Travis Kelce, from one Super Bowl Champion to another, this is a way bigger deal than the Super Bowl.

He then warned the Chiefs tight end, ‘You cannot mess this up. This is very delicate.’

But James didn’t agree. ‘It’s so early. You’re treating it like it’s Joe all over again,’ referencing to Swift’s relationship with Joe Alwyn that ended in April. ‘That won’t end well. Didn’t you listen to Karma?’

Big news: ‘All right, all right. Let’s get into the game and stop yapping about Taylor and her little boyfriend,’ Kenan added, however, everyone else at the table suddenly let out small gasps of shock

‘Official’: Kearney, who portrayed Terry Bradshaw, stated, ‘Jimmy, I really have to disagree. She’s in the luxury box hanging with mama Kelsey, knocking back cocktails with Deadpool, folks, they’re official’

Wow! Suddenly, Travis appeared on set, causing the audience to let out cheers and cries of shock and excitement

Day added, ‘What? Karma’s not about Joe. Are you insane? Not everything has to be about Joe.’ Kenan cut in as a debate about her relatioship with Alwyn began to heat up.

He then began conversing with the sideline reporter, Kenny Ditullio, who was played by Davidson. When asked what the ‘mood’ was on the field, he answered with ‘devastated’ due to Taylor being absent from the game.

However, Thompson asked why he assumed the songstress would be at an Eagles vs. Jets game.

‘What do you mean why? Because there was a rumor online she was coming to cheer on Travis Kelce’s brother Jason who plays for the Eagles. Duh. So far, no sign of blondie. Wondering why I’m even here.’

Kenan then asked Pete to describe the matchup, which prompted him to begin to analyze Taylor at a past Chiefs game. ‘There’s a lot going on here. Look at Taylor’s eyes. Look at the thumbs up. It’s a love story, baby!’

Frustrated, Thompson ended the interview and the hosts began discussing grabbing tickets for her Eras Tour movie and debated who was the biggest Swiftie.

Kenan then began to cut to commercial, and announced that he would ‘speak with someone who actually wants to talk football.’

Suddenly, Travis appeared on set, causing the audience to let out cheers and cries of shock and excitement. ‘Yes, please!’ he said while talking into a microphone as he stood on the ‘sidelines.’

Not long after Kelce’s shock appearance, his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, also made a cameo of her own as she introduced musical guest, Ice Spice, for her second performance of the night.

Exit from the show: The comedian notably starred on the sketchy comedy series for eight years from 2014 to 2022

The pair notably collaborated on a remix version of the track, Karma, which dropped earlier this year.

Ice Spice then performed the song, Pretty Girl, and was joined by fellow music artist, Rema. Earlier in the show, the star also took to the stage and sang the track, In Ha Mood.

The season premiere episode kicked off with Pete Davidson stepping onto the SNL stage as he was greeted by a welcoming applause. The comedian notably starred on the sketchy comedy series for eight years from 2014 to 2022.

For his opening monologue, the Bodies Bodies Bodies actor quickly jumped into a stand-up comedy routine.

He began by explaining that in order to bond with his sister, he decided that the pair should watch a TV show together, and chose to watch Game Of Thrones since they hadn’t seen the series.

‘I didn’t know. It’s the number one show in the world,’ he explained, but then added, ‘I had no idea how sick everyone was,’ emphasizing the word ‘sick.’

‘I thought it was like dragons and stuff, and magic. Hardly any dragons. Lots of incest, tons of incest. So much incest. You can leave the house, come back, incest still happening,’ he humorously explained.

‘It’s a very weird show to watch when you’re trying to find common ground with your sister. I was so uncomfortable watching this, guys.’

Movie reference: At the end, he was seen in the driver’s seat of a car alongside Barbie, played by Chloe Fineman

‘I was watching, and I was like, this is so weird, you know. Wonder how she feels, you know. So I put out a feeler. I was like, “Hey, this is pretty weird, huh?” And she was like, “I love it!”‘

He continued, ‘I was like, “Yeah, but, you know, the incest, you know. It’s like a no-go, right?” She was like, “Well, it was a different time. I was like, “Am I about to bang this chick?”‘

Pete also briefly discussed growing up on Staten Island and how he had initial plans to be a construction worker before discovering his passion for comedy.

He then recalled his ‘origin story’ and opened up about the first night he did a stand-up comedy show in the city.

Davidson appeared in various skits throughout the premiere episode, and had the chance to showcase his musical skills during a Barbie sketch.

After hearing gossip about him from another SNL comedian, Pete became sad and started to sing an emotional tune – which turned out to be a parody of Ryan Gosling’s song, I’m Just Ken, from Greta Gerwig’s hit movie.

He could be seen on a Barbie-themed set and was joined by other ‘Pete’ versions of himself during the song.

Some lyrics were: ‘I’m just Pete, my dating life is not discrete/ I generate tons of publicity for everything except my comedy.’

He also alluded to his ex Kim Kardashian and Kanye West with, ‘People online still call me Skeet/ because of a guy whose name I can’t say legally.’ The rapper notably gave him the nickname when the comedian was dating the SKIMS founder.

Introduction: At one point, Kenan Thompson appeared with a new hire, played by James Austin Johnson, who became uncomfortable by Heidi continuously completing his sentences and thoughts

Pete as well as other SNL cast members joined in for choreography for a fun skit.

At the end, he was seen in the driver’s seat of a car alongside Barbie, played by Chloe Fineman. He drove into the side of a Barbie dollhouse and yelled out, ‘Not again!’ poking fun at his recent car accidents.

In another skit, Pete took on the role of a lawyer who had just taken on a case for a new client – played by Bowen Yang.

The setting was an office in the 1950s or 1960s and Davidson has a secretary named Trudy, portrayed by Heidi Gardner.

Her character was always one step ahead and anticipated her boss’s needs – often completing Pete’s sentences, as well as others in the office.

At one point, Kenan Thompson appeared with a new hire, played by James Austin Johnson, who became uncomfortable by Heidi continuously completing his sentences and thoughts.

The pair soon left, and Heidi was asked by Pete to call a car for his client. However, at one point, she sat on the edge of her desk, which completely fell to pieces, causing her to plummet to the ground.

Davidson and Yang gave shocked reactions and pointed out that during the commotion, her top magically flew off.

As she rose from the rubble, the skit quickly turned into a romantic scene, with Pete and Heidi professing their love to each other.
