Jason Kelce’s Shirtless Celebration at Chiefs-Bills Playoff Game Surprises Wife and Taylor Swift

Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce‘s shirtless celebration during the Kansas City Chiefs–Buffalo Bills playoff game caught the attention of both his wife and pop star Taylor Swift. The now-iconic moment, where Jason ripped off his shirt and jubilantly exclaimed from a luxury box at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York, was not received well by his wife, Kylie Kelce.

During the recent episode of the ‘Philly Special Podcast,’ hosted by Jason and his brother Travis Kelce, the elder Kelce admitted that Kylie did not appreciate his spontaneous act. Jason had given her a heads-up beforehand, but she warned him against it, to which he replied, ‘I’m not asking for permission, I’m doing this.’

Jason Kelce revealed that he and Kylie were meeting Taylor Swift that day, and she had already instructed him to be on his best behavior. However, Jason, known for his exuberant personality, saw the shirtless celebration as part of his charm and wanted to make a lasting impression. Despite his wife’s reservations, Travis Kelce shared that Taylor Swift loved Jason’s antics.

Earlier in the day, Jason had participated in a Buffalo tailgate, where he took a shot from a bowling ball and mingled with enthusiastic fans. He even wore a sign that read, ‘Buffalo Bills + Taylor Swift Best First Game Ever!!’ The sign caught the attention of a young girl named Ella Piazza, who was given the opportunity to see Taylor Swift waving from the luxury box. The moment left Ella overwhelmed with happiness, according to her mother Jessica Piazza, who appeared on NBC‘s ‘TODAY’ show.

The Kansas City Chiefs emerged victorious from the game, defeating the Buffalo Bills 27-24. They will move on to face the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game next week in Baltimore.
