Travis Kelce opened up about how being with someone so successful can be intimidating, and how he puts a lot of pressure on himself.
Lately, whenever Taylor Swift sets foot in a ceremony (or basically anywhere), she makes history. And the 2024 Grammy Awards were no exception. Throughout the night she broke records, announced new material, and dazzled fans all over the world. Meanwhile, her boyfriend Travis Kelce, who couldn’t be by her side due to his very busy schedule, watched the awards from home, and his admiration for her only grew.
Taylor and Travis are arguably the greatest power couple in the world right now, but with the singer making the headlines practically every single day, and bringing attention to him in the process, the NFL player can’t help but feel pressured to keep up with his incredibly successful partner.
Travis Kelce Feels Nervous About Keeping Up With Taylor

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship stands out for how supportive the two of them are of each other. They are both incredibly successful in their fields, and they’re always seen cheering each other on, whether that is at football matches or at sold-out concerts. Although Travis Kelce is an incredible player, and is now preparing for the 2024 Super Bowl (which is obviously one of the biggest things an NFL player can strive for), it would be useless to deny that Taylor Swift is in a league of her own. She’s hugely more popular than him, which at one point was a concern for the Kelce family, and after her triumph at the Grammys, Travis opened up about how being with someone so successful can be intimidating, and he puts a lot of pressure on himself.
“She’s unbelievable,” he said about her. “She’s rewriting the history books herself. I told her I’ll have to hold up my end of the bargain and come home with some hardware, too.” It’s not just the fact that she’s breaking records left and right, it’s also that she’s bringing a lot more attention to him during matches. “You can’t put any more pressure than I put on myself, I promise you that,” he explained. “That’s just the heart of a competitor. She’s definitely brought a lot of new faces to the game, and it’s been fun to experience that.”
It’s important to point out that the relationship is still relatively new, so it’s normal for Travis to feel somewhat insecure about some things. At the end of the day, the couple love each other very much, and their mutual support and admiration is beautiful to see.
Taylor Swift Dominated The 2024 Grammy Awards

This year’s Grammy Awards belonged to women, and the undeniable queen was Taylor Swift. Just when the world thought she’d already reached her highest point, she proved that she could go even higher. Taylor Swift left the Grammy Awards ceremony as a 14-time Grammy winner and as the only artist in history to win Album of the Year four times. And if that wasn’t enough, she also used one of her acceptance speeches to announce the imminent release of her upcoming album, The Tortured Poets Department.
There were lots of incredible moments during the ceremony, such as Miley Cyrus finally winning her first Grammy, Phoebe Bridgers getting the most awards of the night, or Billie Eilish’s moving speech with her brother Finneas as she won Song of the Year. But Taylor was, without a doubt, the star of the night. One thing people noticed was that Travis Kelce wasn’t by her side, but as readers probably know, he’s very busy preparing for the Super Bowl, so fans and Swifties seemingly forgave him. Travis still kept an eye on Taylor the whole night though, and couldn’t be more proud of her accomplishments.
