Jason Kelce was truly in the spotlight at Taylor Swift’s Miami concert on Friday night, where the retired NFL star seemed fully immersed in the experience. The Philadelphia Eagles legend, whose younger brother Travis Kelce has been dating Swift for over a year, attended the first of her three Miami shows at Hard Rock Stadium with his wife Kylie and their daughters, Wyatt, 5, and Elliotte, 3.
The evening was filled with excitement, as Jason, 36, reveled in the three-hour performance alongside thousands of Swift’s fans. The night marked a special occasion for the Kelce family, who were there to support the pop superstar as she resumed her record-breaking Eras Tour after a two-month break.
Jason, known for his sense of humor and fun-loving personality, made sure to enjoy the concert to the fullest. He was spotted raising a beer and sharing laughs with his friend and former Eagles teammate Beau Allen during the sold-out show.
At one point, Jason even broke out his signature dance moves, getting down to one of Swift’s hits, “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.” His enthusiastic, if somewhat uncoordinated, dancing—flapping his arms and shaking his hips—was a highlight for fans in the stands.
The dance was even more amusing considering Kylie’s previous claim that her husband has only three dance moves in his entire repertoire.
Kylie, affectionately called “Princess Kyana” by Jason and Travis, embraced the night as well, channeling her inner Swiftie. She posed for a playful selfie with Allen, who cheekily captioned the Instagram story, “Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince,” referencing a song from Swift’s 2019 Lover album.
Their daughters, Wyatt and Elliotte, seemed equally enthralled, dancing and singing along to the music while dressed in sparkling, bejeweled outfits. The young girls wore protective headphones, ensuring they could enjoy the music without being overwhelmed by the loud stadium atmosphere.
However, the excitement eventually seemed to wear Jason down. Later in the evening, the former NFL center was spotted appearing to take an impromptu nap in the stands, prompting a viral reaction online. A photo capturing Jason dozing off mid-concert quickly made the rounds on social media, with fans playfully poking fun at his need for a rest.
One fan on X (formerly Twitter) wrote, “This is so great,” while another added, “This made my night, hahahaha.” A third chimed in, asking, “@JasonKelce, are you just resting your eyes for a second?” Others joked, “Just fireman carry him out,” referencing his massive NFL stature. Even the official account for the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast got in on the fun, writing, “Caught in 4K.”
The concert was part of Taylor Swift’s much-anticipated return to her Eras Tour, with 18 shows scheduled over the next 51 days. After the three Miami performances, Swift will continue her tour with stops in New Orleans, Indianapolis, Toronto, and Vancouver to wrap up her 2024 schedule.
Jason wasn’t the only sporting legend in attendance that night. NFL icon Tom Brady also posted a snapshot of himself with his two sons, Jack and Ben, enjoying the concert, captioning the photo, “Boys night at the Eras Tour [laughing emoji].” Tennis great Serena Williams was also seen on the floor, waiting for the show to start, adding even more star power to the event.
Earlier in the day, Donna Kelce, the matriarch of the Kelce family, had her own special Eras Tour moment. She was seen receiving one of Swift’s famous friendship bracelets from a fan named Cassandra.
The fan had crafted a bracelet inspired by the gold accessory Swift often wears, symbolizing her relationship with Travis. Donna, who was attending her first Eras Tour concert, seemed thrilled by the gesture and posed for a photo with the fan.
While the Kelce family had previously attended Swift’s concerts over the summer in London, this was the first time Donna had made it to one of her shows. Despite Travis, Jason, Kylie, and the kids attending Swift’s Wembley Stadium performances, Donna had missed out on those summer concerts. However, her Miami appearance ensured she finally got to see her son’s girlfriend perform live.
The night was a fun-filled, memorable occasion for the entire Kelce family, packed with music, dancing, and a little bit of shut-eye for Jason. With the Eras Tour continuing, fans will be eager to see what other exciting moments come from Swift’s shows—and from the ever-entertaining Kelce family.
