The Anti-Hero hitmaker, 34, thanked the NFL star, 34, as she recalled shooting her Fortnight music video while accepting Video Of The Year during the ceremony.
‘I would always just hear someone cheering from across the studio where we were shooting [Fortnight],’ Swift began.
‘And that one person was my boyfriend Travis. Everything this man touches turns into happiness and fun and magic.
‘I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that,’ the 13-time Grammy-winner gushed.
Fans were brought to tears as they flocked to social media to react to Swift’s kind words about her boyfriend of one-year — with many declaring it a ‘hard launch.’
It comes amid wild rumors that her romance with Kelce is a ‘PR stunt.’
‘Taylor always gives us a lil treat and tonight’s lil treat was travis mention,’ one devout Swiftie gushed on X (formerly Twitter).
Many thought it was great to see how much Swift ‘seems to appreciate the positive impact [Travis] had on their project.’
Another fan joked: ‘Taylor Swift thanking and publicly referring to Travis Kelce as her boyfriend is still the biggest sports news of the night.
