Taylor Swift had a viral moment during the Kansas City Chiefs’ 26-13 victory over the New Orleans Saints on October 7, as cameras caught her passionately reacting to the action on the field. The 34-year-old pop superstar, who has been dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce since 2023, has quickly become a regular fixture at Arrowhead Stadium, often seen enthusiastically supporting her boyfriend and the team.
Swift, known for her global dominance in music with her Eras Tour, has been embracing the world of football with growing enthusiasm. As the weeks go by, it seems she’s becoming more invested in the game, often sporting the Chiefs’ red and white colors and reacting to pivotal moments with the intensity of a dedicated fan.
During the game, Swift was caught on camera with an amusing—and somewhat dramatic—reaction to a key play. When Saints defensive lineman Khalen Saunders pulled off an impressive 37-yard return following a Patrick Mahomes turnover, Swift was seen yelling, “No, I’m going to f***ing kill myself,” in a moment of pure frustration. The play set up a Derek Carr touchdown pass for the Saints, adding to the tension in the game.
The clip of Swift’s outburst quickly went viral on social media, with fans on X (formerly Twitter) sharing their reactions to the pop star’s growing passion for football. One user commented, “The video cutting off as she’s yelling, ‘No, I’m going to f***ing kill myseeelf.’ Me during every single Eras show.” Another fan pointed out how comfortable Swift seemed among her fellow fans, noting, “The way no one glances at her or moves a millimeter—you know she does this all the time.”
Another comment praised Swift’s commitment, saying, “Say what you want about Taylor Swift, the Chiefs, and the NFL… but this woman is locked in for every damn play. Respect.”

Despite the dramatic moment, the Chiefs went on to recover from the turnover and secure a 26-13 win, improving their record to 5-0 for the season. Mahomes finished the game with 331 passing yards, completing 28 of 39 attempts, though he didn’t throw for a touchdown. Kelce, Swift’s boyfriend, had a strong performance, making 70 yards on nine receptions.
Swift’s football fandom is just one aspect of her busy life. Currently on a break from her record-breaking Eras Tour, which wrapped up its European leg with a final show at London’s Wembley Stadium in August, Swift is gearing up to return to the stage soon.
She’ll kick off the next leg of her tour in the United States, starting with a three-night stint at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami from October 18-20.
Following that, she’ll head to New Orleans, Indianapolis, Toronto, and Vancouver, much to the delight of her global fanbase.
As Swift balances her tour schedule with supporting Kelce and attending Chiefs games, fans are enjoying watching her dive deeper into the world of football, adding yet another layer to her ever-growing public persona.
