Travis Kelce has shared his reaction to Taylor Swift changing the lyrics to her hit song 'Karma' to reflect her relationship with the NFL athlete.

On Saturday (November 11) night, the 34-year-old Chiefs tight end flew to Argentina to watch the Grammy winner kick off the South American leg of her Eras tour in Buenos Aires.

As the 33-year-old superstar performed the hit track off her 2022 album, Midnights, she sent concert-goers at Estadio River Plate into a frenzy when she hinted at her romance with Kelce.

Singing on stage, Swift replaced the lyrics "Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me," with "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me."

The 'Love Story' songstress let out a laugh after she switched the lyrics, as fans in the audience screamed over the reference. Meanwhile, another clip posted on social media caught the footballer's adorable reaction to the lyric change.

Kelce - who was standing next to Swift’s father, Scott, in the VIP tent - gave a smile and put his hands to his head after hearing the shout-out.

The athlete spoke about the heartwarming moment during today's episode of his New Heights podcast, with his brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce.

"How does it feel to officially be 'The guy on the Chiefs'?" Jason teased his sibling on the podcast. With a laugh, Kelce said that he had "no clue" Swift planned to mention him during her concert.

Watch the brothers speak about the moment below: 

"Well, I might have had a little bit of a clue," he cheekily admitted, adding, "But definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth, [it] still shocked me."

"Yeah, you could tell in the video," Jason responded, to which the Kansas star marveled: "I was like, 'Oh shh! She really said that.'"

The Philadelphia Eagles center then quipped that Kelce was clearly so disoriented, that he "left Scott hanging" as the singer's dad offered up his hand for a high-five.

"Yeah, Mr. Swift, I apologize, big guy," Travis replied. "Man, I missed that. I never miss a high-five, too. Big high-five guy. It's the most electric thing you can do at an event and so, sorry Mr. Swift."

The couple's whirlwind relationship has unfolded publicly over the last three months, with the whole thing starting when the NFL star spoke about his interest in the singer after attending her Eras Tour show at the MetLife Stadium.

Two months later, the 'Cruel Summer' musician broke the internet after she was spotted cheering for Kelce's football team alongside his mom, Donna Kelce.

Since then, Swift has attended even more of her beau's games, with the two even spotted holding hands after their surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live earlier this month.

The couple warmed many hearts after the pop star was spotted excitedly running off stage to kiss Kelce at the end of her show in Argentina.
