Why Travis Kelce missed Taylor Swift’s revamped Eras Tour return in Paris

Travis Kelce was a no-show at Taylor Swift’s revamped Eras Tour concert in Paris because he was busy filming a TV series.

Niecy Nash shared a video of Kelce on the set of Ryan Murphy’s forthcoming FX horror drama “Grotesquerie” on her Instagram Story Thursday.

“Look who’s getting ready for his close-up,” the actress said while filming the Kansas City Chiefs tight end sitting in a makeup chair.

“Who, me?” Kelce, 34, replied with a grin as crew members powdered his face.

“Are you ready?” Nash, 54, captioned the clip, tagging the athlete’s Instagram handle.

Kelce wore a black long-sleeve sweater, black pants and brown boots as he got ready to film in Los Angeles. He accessorized with a gold medallion necklace.

Kelce was clearly missed by the pop star, who gave him a subtle shout-out during her show by doing his favorite “Swag Surfin’” dance move while singing her song “So High School,” which is believed to be about the NFL star.

“It’s true, scout’s honor / You knew what you wanted, and, boy, you got her,” she sang while doing her choreography.
