Everyone was watching Travis Kelce during Sunday’s game, but it wasn’t just his playing that caught people’s attention. Fans noticed his sad look on the sidelines, especially because someone special was missing from the stands.
Travis Kelce, who plays tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, seemed a bit off during the game against the Atlanta Falcons on September 22, 2024. This led to a lot of chatter and questions among fans.
The game ended with a 22-17 win for the Chiefs, but Travis Kelce’s performance was unusually quiet. Fans quickly noticed that pop star Taylor Swift was missing from the stands for the first time this NFL season. Many thought that Kelce’s less energetic play and sad expression were related to her absence.
Kelce, who had only four catches for 30 yards during the game, was seen in a viral clip on social media looking very down on the sidelines. In the video, the 34-year-old athlete is shown rubbing his right eye and staring blankly ahead, which made fans wonder if something was bothering him.
Fans quickly connected his poor performance to Swift not being there, taking to social media to express their opinions. One user asked, “What happened to him???” Another joked, “His girlfriend isn’t here. If she was here, he would have played better. But what do I know .”
Netizens also noticed Kelce’s sad expression, with one saying, “Free Travis Kelce, man [sic].” Some fans believed his struggle on the field was a sign of deeper emotional issues. One fan commented, “He seems down. ,” while another simply stated, “No Taylor…,” suggesting that Swift’s absence might have greatly impacted Kelce’s performance.
As more fans chimed in, the comments became more speculative. One fan remarked, “Travis Kelce looks absolutely DONE,” while another referenced a famous photo of actor Ben Affleck looking worn out with a cigarette in hand. “Starting to look familiar…” the user said, comparing Kelce’s demeanor to the well-known image of Affleck looking unhappy.
Sources say Swift chose to stay behind and was not by her boyfriend’s side for the Kansas City Chiefs’ first away game of the season against the Atlanta Falcons. She usually arrives about an hour before the game starts, but this was the first game of the season that she missed. Fans began speculating about her absence as the game kicked off at 8:20 p.m. at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
When she mentioned his name and referred to him as her boyfriend, the crowd erupted with excitement. “Everything this man touches turns to happiness and fun and magic. So I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that,” Swift said.
Keanu Reeves’ reaction to 9-year-old who says he’s his favorite actor is breaking hearts
Keanu Reeves’ reaction to 9-year-old who says he’s his favorite actor is breaking hearts
If it wasn’t already abundantly clear, Keanu Reeves is a really, really good human being.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ll have likely heard the stories and seen the videos. You’ll know that for all his megastar status, millions of dollars, and unbelievable fame, Reeves is a down to earth individual who has never considered himself above compassion and kindness.
It seems as though every few months Reeves does something new to remind us that he’s the gold standard when it comes to A-list celebrities putting others before themselves and generally behaving like they truly care about the general population.
Reeves, well known for his work on blockbuster films, has shown himself to also be adept where comic book writing is concerned of late. He co-created and co-wrote the series BRZRKR, the biggest single selling issue since Star Wars in 2015, alongside Matt Kindt.
At a recent book signing, a nine-year-old fan of the series approached Keanu to tell him that the Matrix star was his “favorite actor”. Keanu’s reaction?
Well, it’s as wholesome as you’d expect…
When your star shines as bright as Keanu Reeves‘s does, it’s safe to assume there are very few days when you don’t encounter someone or other who wants you to take a photo with them or sign an autograph.
Now, we can imagine that the rigmarole must get tiring sometimes – I mean, it’s only natural to assume that people wanting a piece of you all the time will wear you down – but one would never guess it from watching Keanu interact with his fans.
There have been multiple instances of the 58-year-old showcasing his huge heart and compassion over the years. Take, for example, the time he responded to a boy’s rapid-fire questions with kindness after a long flight. Or how about that time Sandra Bullock revealed that he had surprised her with champagne and truffles after she confided in him that she’d never tried them.
We could go on and on. The point is, Keanu Reeves is a genuinely good human being, so it should come as small surprise that he’s once again doing the rounds on the internet following an interaction with a nine-year-old fan.
As per reports, the young boy in question approached Reeves at a book signing, telling the actor “I’m such a big fan!”
In footage shared by IGN, Reeves can be heard asking the boy his name. When the nine-year-old says “Noah”, Keanu then introduces himself too (like there was any need).
“You’re probably my favourite actor in the whole world!” Noah says in the clip.
Keanu can then be seen wearing a beaming smile. “Oh my gosh, Noah, thank you!” he says.
The 58-year-old actor then gave his young fan a mini quiz, asking him if he’d seen Duke Caboom – the toy voiced by Reeves in Toy Story 4.
“Yeah, he’s my favourite character!” Noah replies.
It’s not just Keanu’s politeness that shows through in these interactions, but his sheer enthusiasm. Fans were quick to highlight the fact that the John Wick star always appears to be just as happy to interact with others as they are to interact with him.
They say you should never meet your idols, but we think it’s safe to disregard that advice where Keanu is concerned.
