Taylor Swift posts video of Travis Kelce and her parents “accidentally going clubbing” after 2024 Super Bowl
Taylor Swift and boyfriend Travis Kelce celebrated his 2024 Super Bowl win with the Kansas City Chiefs by going out for a night on the town — accompanied by Swift’s parents.
The night out was documented in a TikTok that Swift shared on Tuesday.
“It’s a friends and family party they said,” she wrote over clips of a raucous and crowded nightclub, including a shot of Kelce sticking his tongue out at the camera. “Bring your parents they said.”
Swift’s parents, Andrea and Scott Swift, can be seen smiling, with Scott Swift sipping at a drink, while Swift herself looks sheepishly at the camera.
“accidentally going clubbing with your parents is something everyone should try at least once in their life,” the pop star wrote in the video’s caption.
Other videos from the night showed Swift and Kelce dancing together, and Kelce loudly singing along to Swift’s song “You Belong With Me” as it was played.
The party capped off an exciting night for the celebrity couple. The Chiefs won Super Bowl LVIII in a nail-biting thriller against the San Francisco 49ers. Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. said an electrifying pep talk from Kelce at half time helped the team come back in the second half and win in overtime for their second consecutive Super Bowl win.
“He set the fire on everybody,” Hardman said Monday on “CBS Mornings.” “He flipped a few things over, but he definitely had a good speech to get everyone going and definitely got fuel to the fire, and we came out to the second half doing better than we did in the first half.”
Swift raced from Tokyo, where she had recently performed four shows as part of her Eras Tour, to make the kickoff at Las Vegas Allegiant Stadium. The pop star watched the game from Kelce’s suite with her parents, friends Blake Lively and Ice Spice, and Kelce’s family, including brother Jason Kelce.
After the game ended, Swift and Kelce were photographed together on the field, embracing and sharing a kiss.

Swift wasn’t the only one watching: The game was the most watched program in television history, CBS Sports said Tuesday. That’s partly because of a phenomenon nicknamed the “Taylor Effect,” where her fans have started tuning into NFL games to catch a glimpse of the star.

Kash Patel, Trump’s pick for FBI director, targeted in possible Iran-backed cyberattack, sources say
Kash Patel, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the FBI, was recently notified that he was the target of a potential Iran-backed cyberattack, two people familiar with the matter confirmed to CBS News.
The apparent hackers targeted his communications, but whether they succeeded and how much access they had to the data is still being investigated, the people said.
The FBI declined to comment. CBS News had also reached out to the Trump campaign for comment.
The news of Iran’s potential targeting of Patel was first reported by Semafor.
This comes after months of warnings from the FBI and other federal agencies of Iranian cyber activity targeting Trump campaign staff leading up the 2024 presidential election. In September, Justice Department prosecutors charged three members of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps with launching a broad hacking campaign against U.S. officials, including those close to Trump.
In August, Microsoft said that Iran was increasing its efforts to influence the November election, and in one case had targeted a presidential campaign with an email phishing attack.
Trump and his allies, including members of his first administration, have been targets of Iran since the 2020 killing of Gen. Qassem Soleimani in a U.S. airstrike in Baghdad, and U.S. officials continued to warn of those cyberattack campaigns in recent months.
The 44-year-old Patel served in intelligence and defense roles in Trump’s first term, including chief of staff to the secretary of defense. He was also designated by Trump to be a representative to the National Archives and Records Administration and fought a subpoena to testify before a federal grand jury in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.
He is an attorney and staunch Trump loyalist who rose to prominence as an aide to former Republican Rep. Devin Nunes of California, fighting the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.
He served on Trump’s National Security Council, then as a senior adviser to acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell, and later as chief of staff to acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller.
President-elect Donald Trump is considering selecting Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis as his pick for defense secretary to potentially replace embattled Fox News host Pete Hegseth, two sources familiar with the transition told CBS News Tuesday night.
This comes after Trump and DeSantis attended a memorial for fallen law enforcement officers Tuesday in Florida.
The Wall Street Journal was first to report this story.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
