Taylor Swift thanks ‘boyfriend’ Travis Kelce in a beautiful MTV VMAs speech showing how happy he makes her

It’s the first time Taylor Swift has called him “boyfriend” in public.

Pop star Taylor Swift won seven moon men on Wednesday night at the MTV Video Music Awards, entering a tie with Beyoncé as the most decorated artist in VMA history with 30.

Swift took home the title of Video of the Year, Best Collaboration, Best Editing, Best Directing and Song of the Summer for “Fortnight” from The Tortured Poets Department, as well as Best Artist and Best Pop.

Although Swift’s boyfriend — Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — wasn’t able to make the event because of football requirements, her beau of a year was there in spirit.

In accepting the final award of the night for “Fortnight” as Video of the Year, Swift described how one person would always be cheering for them when they finished a shot or scene from the video. “That one person was my boyfriend, Travis,” the 14-time Grammy winner said to raucous applause from the crowd. “Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic, so I want to thank him.”

Although we’ve heard Swift refer to Kelce as her boyfriend after changing the lyric to “Karma” to “karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me” at Eras Tour shows he attended, this is the first time she’s done it publicly.

Will Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce be at the MTV VMAs on Wednesday?

Will this be the first red carpet appearance for the couple?

Scores of music celebrities will descend upon New York City on Wednesday night for the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards. Stars like Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter are scheduled to perform, and mega pop star Taylor Swift will be in attendance.

Swift and her boyfriend — Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce — had an eventful weekend in New York City that included dinners, a wedding and the men’s final of the U.S. Open.

So will this be the first time that the lovey-dovey couple makes their first appearance on a red carpet together?

Unfortunately, probably not. Due to in-season practice schedules with the Kansas City Chiefs, Kelce likely won’t be able to make the trip to New York City mid-week for the awards show fun.

The VMAs start at 8 p.m. ET and will be aired on MTV, BET, VH1, Nickelodeon and CMT.

NSYNC reunited at the VMAs to present an award. Is new music on the way?

NSYNC reunited at the MTV VMAs this week. Could new music be on the way?

Nostalgia for the 1990s/2000s boy band explosion reached a fever pitch on Tuesday night as NSYNC reunited to present an award at the MTV Video Music Awards in New York.

While the group didn’t spend too much time on stage while presenting the Best Pop music video award to Taylor Swift, the presentation will reportedly be followed by a new NSYNC song for the upcoming film Trolls Band Together.

Yes, the DreamWorks Animation franchise co-starring NSYNC member Justin Timberlake shared a new teaser during the VMAs that featured a glimpse at what’s likely a new NSYNC song called “Take You To A Better Place.” You can hear a glimpse of the new song toward the end of the promo.

NSYNC hasn’t produced new music together since 2001’s Celebrity, which featured songs like “Pop” and “Girlfriend.” The group has made brief appearances since then, including a surprise performance at the MTV VMAs back in 2013.

The group also appeared at Coachella alongside Ariana Grande in 2019, sans Timberlake.

However, it looks like NSYNC is really back together for a new song that should come out closer to the release of Trolls Band Together in November.

Either that, or they’re really just … trolling us.

Taylor Swift had the most relatable reaction to seeing NSYNC reunite at the VMAs

Taylor Swift is an icon. On Tuesday night, she was just like the rest of us: super excited to see NSYNC.

One of the most iconic boy bands of all time made a grand return to the MTV Video Music Awards, and another music icon got as excited as the rest of us.

The late 1990s/early 2000s pop group NSYNC surprised music fans by making a mini-reunion and presenting the VMA for Best Pop, which went to Taylor Swift for her music video for “Anti-Hero.”

Well, Swift got incredibly excited to see the boy band back together, and the VMA camera caught her in complete shock as the NSYNC five made it to the stage.

We get it, Taylor. We really, really get it. C’mon, it’s NSYNC!

As fate would have it, Swift would eventually get to meet NSYNC on the stage as she was given her VMA.

 

The members of NSYNC even gave Swift a friendship bracelet to mark the occasion.

Hey, that’s pretty cool. One era of music meets another for a heck of a moment for music fans at this year’s VMAs.

We just hope there’s a collaboration on the way since NSYNC is reportedly going to make new music soon.
