Travis Kelce Jokesthe About the ‘Taylor Swift Effect’ After Leaving a Fan Speechless: Watch

When the man filming the video says, “You just took my wife’s breath away, literally she just almost died,” the athlete simply shrugs. “The Taylor Swift effect,” he says as the fans laugh.

“Unbelievable day at @Chiefs friends and family day,” reads the video’s caption.

Kelce has long been open about how his superstar girlfriend’s fame has rubbed off on him, even though he is regarded as one of the NFL’s most gifted offensive players. Earlier this year, for instance, he recalled being chased by airborne paparazzi at the Sydney Zoo while visiting Swift on her Eras Tour stops in Australia.

“They helicoptered us … well, not us — Taylor,” he said on his podcast New Heights at the time. “This is all because Taylor is the biggest and the best thing possible.”

In an interview with Good Morning America in June, Kelce explained how he’s stayed grounded despite the so-called Taylor Swift effect. “It might not come off like that when I’m playing football, but off the field, I just want to be a genuine person,” he said. “When you have good family and friends around you, it makes that aspect in life that much easier.”
