TRAVIS Kelce doesn’t shy away from attention and looked perfectly at home when he joined Taylor Swift on stage on Sunday night, a body language expert said.
The expert claimed the NFL player’s confident “peacock” gestures on stage at The Eras Tour sent a “meaningful message” that he is “The One” to his Grammy-winning girlfriend.

Travis, 34, took to the stage in London on Sunday, joining Taylor, 34, for a hilarious skit during her Tortured Poets Department set.
The football legend started working at Wembley Stadium before Taylor sang I Can Do It With a Broken Heart, a huge hit from her latest album.
The pop track recalls Taylor being “miserable” during parts of the first leg of her 2023 tour, likely following her breakup with rocker Matt Healy.
Despite singing about crying a lot, falling to the ground and wanting to “die”, she boasts in the song that she still smiled, hit her marks and put on an incredible show.

As the song begins, Taylor pretends to be depressed and unable to move as her dancers, dressed as circus ringmasters, pick her up and push her back onto the stage.
And on June 23, Travis was one of those masters of ceremonies.
His impromptu appearance was a big surprise for fans as it was his first appearance on stage.
Body language expert Judi James said that instead of appearing embarrassed or shy, Travis was “comfortable.”
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, dressed in a stylish black top hat and tails, sent the crowd into a frenzy.
“This man is in his comfort zone and he wants the world to know it,” James told The US Sun.
It showed high levels of artist confidence.

“As Mr. Swift, he could have seemed deliberately shy or embarrassed to be on that stage with a star like Taylor.
“He showed high levels of confidence as an artist.
“Travis made it feel more like his show moment than Taylor’s fainting scene on the couch.
“She lay there in a convincing display of distress, but Travis arrived with showy and peacock signs.”

The sketch began with Travis picking up Taylor and laying her down on a dais.
Travis fanned himself and danced before smiling at her as she changed her clothes.
James stated that Travis was “celebrating” being on stage with his partner for the first time.
Travis was perfectly comfortable performing in front of a large audience, even when he wasn’t the star of the show.

“It may have been symbolic for fans when Travis lifted Taylor up to rescue her from her previous, well-documented heartbreak,” she said.
“He carried her limp body across the stage.
“But this wasn’t a tender, romantic role, and he didn’t play it.
“Travis jumped into the air in what seemed like a celebration of being up there.

“When he looked at Taylor being caught, he threw his hands out to the audience.
“Travis carried her and shook her, yelling, ‘Wake up!’ with an angry face.
“All the while, he played to the audience and touched the brim of his hat in a wave to them.
“Travis was perfectly comfortable performing in front of a large audience, even when he wasn’t the star of the show.
“It also provided a meaningful message that he is the one.”

After the show, Taylor shared a Instagram post of the weekend’s highlights, starting with a photo of her and Travis on stage.
“I’m still fainting/fainting [Travis’] Eras Tour premiere,” she wrote.
Has she met her date?
Taylor and Travis began their relationship in 2023 after he talked about her on his New Heights podcast.
In 2024, they became Hollywood’s hottest couple.
Taylor appeared at Travis’ football games, and the Super Bowl winner cheered her on as her world tour kicked off in 2023.
Travis’ smile and body language to the crowd showed he was having a great time up there.

He appeared in audiences in Buenos Aires, Kansas City, Singapore and Sydney.
Taylor’s first leg in England culminated in her bringing her boyfriend on stage.
At one point, Taylor was seen being pushed by her backup dancers to change clothes.
Travis and the group tried to bring the superstar back to the stage.

James said Travis continued to put his own spin on it all.
“This was acting, but Travis brought a special touch to his role,” she said.
“He was more like a sports coach at times.
“This was someone who could have picked up the sponge and shouted at a player to get back on the field.
“Overall, Travis’ smile and body language, as well as the crowd, showed that he was having a great time up there.”

Interestingly, Travis said he would make his acting debut in May in Ryan Murphy’s horror series Grotesquerie.
He said he felt like an “amateur” on set, but added that the experience was “a fun challenge.”
Travis also appeared on the reality show Catching Kelce in 2016.
He appeared in an SNL skit in 2023 and hosts the Amazon show Am I Smarter Than A Celebrity.

As reported by The US Sun, unlike Taylor’s ex Joe Alwyn, Travis loves being the center of attention.
In a previous interview, James stated that Travis’ body language contrasted with that of Taylor’s actor ex during their six-year relationship.
The expert said Joe seemed “grumpy and impatient” whenever he was out with Taylor.
Now it looks like Travis is in his element.
Ahead of his acting debut in Ages on Saturday, he was also seen dancing happily behind actor Tom Cruise in a VIP box at Wembley.
He also posed with Taylor, Prince William, Prince George and Princess Charlotte for the Prince of Wales’s 42nd birthday.
