Swift, who looked teary as she made her way down to the field to find her boyfriend, celebrated with his mom Donna at the end of the pulsating 32-29 win over the Buffalo Bills.
The 14-time Grammy Award-winning superstar then stood and watched Kelce get interviewed on CBS with Brittany Mahomes as ticker tape rained down from above.
Swift was smiling and nodding in approval as Kelce shouted: ‘Never satisfied, baby!’ and then sang a line from ‘Get Down Tonight’ by KC and The Sunshine Band.
Once he stood down off the podium, the couple shared a passionate kiss in front of hundreds of cameras before linking arms and walking back to the locker room together. On their way, Swift gave Chiefs coach Andy Reid a big hug.
Victory means the Chiefs are now just one win away from becoming the first team in NFL history to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
The Chiefs will take on his brother Jason’s beloved Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans on February 9 after beating Josh Allen and the Bills again in the playoffs.
Sat with her mom Andrea and Donna throughout, Swift embraced both of them during the game as the Chiefs managed to finally wrestle control in the fourth quarter. The Chiefs are now 19-3 with Swift in attendance.
Swift walked down the tunnel with her family to her usual suite about 90 minutes before kickoff.
While she was decked out in Chanel for the divisional round against Houston, she opted for a sleek black-and-gold Louis Vuitton look for the AFC title game.
The look included a jacquard knit jacket that retails for $5,000 and a stocking cap with a list price of $830.
Swift will almost certainly be in New Orleans with her celebrity friends in two weeks’ time when the Chiefs go for an unprecedented third straight Lombardi Trophy.
The singer’s dash from an Eras Tour concert in Tokyo to last year’s Super Bowl dominated much of the buildup before kickoff in Las Vegas.
She made it with plenty of time to spare, of course, before becoming the focus of attention in her own right.
Swift won what appeared to be a beer-chugging contest, partied with celebrity suite mates such as Blake Lively, Ice Spice and Lana Del Rey, and stood next to Kelce’s mother while he held aloft the Lombardi Trophy following the win over the 49ers.
Perhaps the couple will have an opportunity to celebrate again in a couple of weeks in the Big Easy.
Kelce had a quiet night on the field by his standards, catching the ball twice for just 10 yards. But he was involved in a skirmish with a Bills opponent as tempers flared.
The tight end was celebrating as Patrick Mahomes scampered for a touchdown to put the Chiefs up 21-10 and started chirping at Bills safety Damar Hamlin – who was too late to tackle the Chiefs quarterback.
In an effort to defend his teammate, Bills defensive lineman Jordan Phillips ran over and headbutted Kelce.
Officials immediately threw a flag and hit Phillips with an unnecessary roughness penalty. They did not penalize Kelce for his instigating.
Fortunately, best friend and quarterback Mahomes produced a performance for the ages on the biggest stage to lead his team to victory.
He threw for 245 yards and a touchdown and ran through the Buffalo defense for two more scores.
The Chiefs will get a familiar foe in the Eagles, whom they beat two years ago for the first title in this run.
Philadelphia romped to a 55-23 victory over the Washington Commanders earlier Sunday to earn a shot at the champions.
