Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have one very important thing in common… they are both very hard working. 

But even Kelce knows that nobody can truly match Swift's work ethic and a reporter asked him about it during Super Bowl LIX opening night. 

He just smiled and gushed about his girlfriend, explaining how that inspires him in his game. 

"I better hold up my end of the bargain, right?" he said. "If she's out here being the superstar she is and never taking no for an answer and always working her tail off, I better match that energy."

Swift has attended nine games this season, and the Chiefs have won each and every one. She is clearly Kansas City's good luck charm, so hopefully she will help Kelce 'hold up his end of the bargain' on Sunday. 

Chiefs TE Travis Kelce debunks potential Taylor Swift Eagles fandom on Super Bowl LIX opening night

One of Chiefs Kingdom's most important fans is expected to make the trip to New Orleans on Sunday to cheer on Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs.

But, for Taylor Swift, this could be a tough game for her in terms of fandom.

The singer is from Pennsylvania and grew up an Eagles fan. But, now she's dating the Chiefs tight end.

So, Travis Kelce clarified exactly who Swift will be rooting for in Super Bowl LIX. 

"I don't know her to have the fandom. I know her father has the Philadelphia fandom as an Eagles fan," he said. "She'll be all for the Chiefs this time around for sure."

But what about Scott Swift?

"I'll have to ask Scott himself," Kelce added. "We haven’t had that convo yet but I think he’ll be wearing red.”

It's no surprise that Taylor will be rooting for the Chiefs no matter what. And based on how much Chiefs gear Scott has been wearing to all the games this season, it's safe to say that he's switched. Plus, he looks better in red and gold than the green.

Taylor has been the Chiefs good luck charm all season, so let's see if she can keep it going in the biggest game of the year.
