In true Swiftie fashion, fans of the pop star didn’t hesitate to dive in, looking at every frame for hidden surprises and Easter eggs.

After watching the video, which was released on August 20, fans began speculating that Travis Kelce might be the guy sitting at a desk in one of Swift’s tour rehearsal clips.

“Omg Travis Kelce’s music video debut,” one fan shared on X, along with a clip and screenshot.

While the shot is extremely blurry, Swifties can tell that the man at the desk sports a shorter hairstyle and facial hair, similar to Kelce’s previous look, before he recently shaved his beard and debuted a mustache.

While it is unclear if that's Travis Kelce in the "I Can Do It With A Broken Heart" music video, the NFL star was still part of his girlfriend's Tortured Poets Department set on stage.

As The Blast reported, the Kansas City Chiefs star surprised fans at London’s Wembley Stadium with an unexpected appearance during Taylor Swift's concert. During her outfit change for “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart,” Travis Kelce appeared on stage in a tuxedo, carrying the pop icon onstage as part of the new "The Tortured Poets Department" segment.

“It was an absolute blast," Kelce shared on his "New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce" podcast a few days after hitting the stage. While many initially thought it was the pop icon's idea, or perhaps one of her reps, to bring out her boyfriend, Kelce claims he was the mastermind.

"I initially mentioned it to Tay," he told Jason. "I was like, ‘How funny would it be if I just rolled out on one of the bikes during the 1989 era.' " He added that Taylor initially laughed it off, but she then asked, "Would you seriously be up for doing something like that?"

"I was just like, ‘What? I would love to do that, are you kidding me? I've seen the show enough — might as well put me to work here,'" he added. "And sure enough, she found the perfect part of the show for me to come in.”

Chiefs’ general manager, Brett Veach, saw Kelce’s Eras Tour performance, calling the athlete a "showman."

“He’s a showman. He has just a natural gift of being able to perform in front of people. Obviously, we get the most benefit when he’s doing it on Sundays," he told The Athletic. “It’s funny because when you see those clips with him on tour with Taylor, it looks as if he was a part of that show for months. But it was that one day, and he just looks natural. It’s a gift he has.”

As Swifties went wild over Kelce's surprise appearance at London’s Eras Tour show, the NFL star hinted he might make another surprise appearance in the future.

“I was gonna do some extra stuff, and who knows, maybe if I ever do it again, I might do it," he said. "But the golden rule was, do not drop Taylor. Get her to that couch safely.”

“Shout out to Tay for letting me, jump on stage with her. Who knows? Might not be the last time,” he continued. “You guys will have to keep showing up to the Eras Tour to see if I pop out of the stage or whatnot.”
