Taylor Swift<\/strong><\/a> has fianc\u00e9 Travis Kelce<\/strong><\/a> on the brain, paying tribute to him several times in her \u201cThe Fate of Ophelia\u201d music video<\/a>.<\/p>\n While the video\u2019s most obvious nod to the Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 tight end, 36, comes as a grinning Swift catches and passes a football while sliding down a hallway singing the lyrics, \u201cPledge allegiance to your hands, your team, your vibes,\u201d three other loving references bring the grand total to four.<\/p>\n Released by Swift, 35, on Sunday, October 5, the video features a dressing room door with the number \u201c87\u201d hanging from it \u2014 a nod to Kelce\u2019s Chiefs jersey number.<\/p>\n A third tribute to Kelce, who proposed<\/a> to Swift in a floral-filled garden in August, arrives when Swift is inside the video\u2019s dressing room, surrounded by fellow dancers dressed in sparkling red costumes. In the background of the group\u2019s gathering, a black and white photo of Kelce appears to be stuck to the corner of a vanity mirror.<\/p>\n Every Time Taylor Swift References Travis Kelce on Her New \u2018Life of a Showgirl\u2019 Album<\/a><\/p>\n Fans took to social media in the aftermath of the video\u2019s release \u2014 the first off Swift\u2019s 12th studio album The Life of a Showgirl<\/a> \u2014 to speculate over the black and white photo\u2019s origin. Per a report by Page Six<\/a>, published on Sunday, some guessed it was a frame from Kelce\u2019s 2016 Catching Kelce reality series, others believed it stemmed from his October 2024 guest role in Ryan Murphy<\/strong>\u2019s Grotesquerie<\/a>, and further people thought it was from Kelce\u2019s 2016 interview for AfterBuzz TV when he revealed wanted to to \u201ckiss\u201d Swift. (The old interview also revealed that Kelce wanted to \u201ckill\u201d Ariana Grande<\/strong> and \u201cmarry\u201d Katy Perry<\/strong>.)<\/p>\n A third lyrical nod to Kelce is made when Swift sings, \u201cI heard you calling \/ On the megaphone \/ You wanna see me all alone,\u201d which is likely referencing Kelce unsuccessfully trying to gift Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it during her Eras Tour before the pair had connected. (Kelce detailed his failed attempt during a July 2023 episode of his podcast, \u201cNew Heights<\/a>.\u201d)<\/p>\n
