Taylor Swift wraps her hand in Travis Kelce's in NYC outing after 'SNL' cameos
New York City and Kansas City can't get enough of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
Capitalizing off romance rumors, Swift and Kelce each made a cameo on "Saturday Night Live" in NBC's first show in five months since the series was off the air because of the Writers Guild of America strike.
In a parody of "Fox NFL Sunday," the sketch saw the cast impersonating the likes of Terry Bradshaw (Molly Kearney), Michael Strahan (Devon Walker), Howie Long (Mikey Day) and other football commentators, who it turns out are all secretly Swifties. And they all have opinions about whether or not Swift and Kansas City Chiefs player Kelce are dating, or just friends. Later in the show, Swift appeared briefly to introduce the second performance with four words: "Once again, Ice Spice!"
Neither of them addressed the dating rumors, but they certainly fueled them as they left Studio 8H on Saturday night and headed to dinner at New York City restaurant Catch for an "SNL" afterparty.
The NFL tight end and "Eras Tour" star walked hand-in-hand as they went to the celebrity hot spot. Kelce showed off his style in a white jacket with stitched birds, a white button-down and brown trousers. Meanwhile, Swift kept it sexy in a black corset top, black pants and a tweed jacket.
Swift and Kelce also had a solo night out in New York on Sunday, dining at Waverly Inn. Once again, the pair showed a united front holding hands as they entered the establishment.
The pop star went with an edgier look in a sheer floral top, leather mini skirt and black heeled booties and the NFL pro donned a tan corduroy set with a black T-shirt underneath.
Their appearances come two days after Swift was spotted Thursday arriving at the Chiefs' game against the Denver Broncos in Kansas City. The singer wore a black dress, paired with a red varsity jacket.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been linked since September
Swift and Kelce caused quite a stir with their first public appearance together on Sept. 24 when Kelce played against the Chicago Bears. The "Lavender Haze" singer sat in a suite with Donna Kelce and cheered him on to a 41-10 victory.
The game was the most-watched matchup of the week, drawing 24.3 million viewers and ranking first among women ages 12 to 49.
"Shout-out to Taylor for pulling up. That was pretty ballsy," Kelce said on the Sept. 29 episode of the "New Heights With Jason and Travis Kelce" podcast, adding that everyone spoke of Swift in a "great light."
"And on top of that, the day went perfect for Chiefs fans, of course. We script it all, ladies and gentlemen. It was just impressive. … It was definitely a game I’ll remember, that’s for sure."
Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift make surprise cameos on strike-delayed 'SNL' season opener
Swift turned the Chiefs' Oct. 1 game against the New York Jets into a star-studded affair when she brought a full entourage to the Big Apple event. The pop star stood next to actress Blake Lively throughout the NFL match, and both cheered throughout the game.
Lively's husband, Ryan Reynolds, also attended with his "Deadpool 3" co-star and fellow Marvel actor Hugh Jackman. Meanwhile, "Game of Thrones" star Sophie Turner was spotted in the booth and later walking out with the Grammy-winning singer at the end of the game.
