Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce share an intimate moment as they get cozy at Travis's charity event
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce packed on the PDA after finally making their red carpet debut at opening night of his Tight End University in Nashville, Tennessee on Monday. While the football star, 35, was technically working at the three-day NFL event, which he has co-hosted alongside fellow tight ends George Kittle and Greg Olsen since 2021, he couldn't keep his eyes - or his lips- off his singer girlfriend, also 35. In a snap that has emerged from the launch party at cocktail bar LA Jackson, the loved-up couple could be seen sharing a kiss in the background after arriving together holding hands. Casual show: Fans gushed that their casual entrance was the 'perfect' way for the two to make their red carpet debut.

In a rare public display of affection for her on social media, the NFL star used his adorable nickname for her, writing: 'Turn me up Tay Tay!!!' Fans, perhaps unsurprisingly, quickly noticed the comment on the official NFL post and went crazy on social media. One wrote: 'I know a No 1 Swiftie when I see one,' while another added: 'I am dead on the side of the road.' The Tight End University is a three-day training camp that Travis co-founded in 2021 with the San Francisco 49ers tight End George Kittle and the sports caster Greg Olsen. The training camp's website says that it was created to help football tight ends 'bond, collaborate with, and learn amongst their peers while participating in a variety of activities including film study, on-field drills, recovery, rehabilitation, and more.' Taylor not only showed her support by attending the opening-night event with Travis, but also performed some of her songs on Tuesday night. The singer was seen in video posted by fans rocking out on an acoustic guitar as she sang her hit Shake It Off for the attendees. For the performance she changed into a sleek black denim mini dress and a pair of knee-length Versace leather boots. Since the Nashville night out an 'epic' photobomb by Taylor has since gone viral. The singer can be seen in a photo peering over Kelce's right shoulder with her eyes squinted and her tongue out of her mouth. Travis is smiling in the photo alongside fellow tight end Ian Thomas to his left and Tommy Banker on his other side. Many compared the moment to Taylor's father, Scott Swift, with his past photobombs of her pictures with friends. One fan wrote: 'Photo bomb by Taylor is epic!' Another said: 'This is why Taylor is PERFECT for Travis and Travis perfect for Taylor - they are both so unserious and fun.'
