Taylor Swift is aiming for the heart with a sweet new addition to her concerts.
The 34-year-old singer, who wowed fans in Dublin with her Irish flag salute, also captured the crowd’s attention by borrowing a signature dance move from her boyfriend Travis Kelce, 34.
During her performance of Midnight Rain in Dublin on Friday night, Swift pretended to use a bow and arrow as she sang the line, “And he never thinks about me / Except when I’m on TV.”
Kelce, who plays tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, uses a similar move when he runs onto the field at Arrowhead Stadium for home games.
“I always wanted to do something when I ran out of the tunnel,” the Super Bowl winner explained during an October 2023 episode of his New Heights podcast with his brother Jason Kelce.

“I think, ‘Man, you know what really motivates me?’ It’s to always dream big. [and] I always aim for the stars, so I’m just going for the stars, baby.”
Swift played to a sold out crowd at the Aviva Stadium, with the Irish examiner It is estimated that fans came from far and wide to see the concert.
When she took the stage, the outlet reported that Swift told her concertgoers that there was no different audience compared to Irish fans.
“I just feel like, ‘We’re back,’” she said.
‘I haven’t been able to play a song in Dublin for five years. No one does this like you.”
The Grammy winner added the archery technique to her recent shows at Wembley Stadium during her song So High School from her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, and Kelsey was spotted in the VIP section returning the move.
During one of those shows, Kelce received more than a little applause when he joined her onstage in a tuxedo, top hat and tails for the transition from “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” to “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart.”
In a now-viral video, one of her dancers, Kameron Saunders, who usually says “as always” into the microphone during We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, put an Irish spin on the evening by yelling “póg mo thóin” in Gaelic, or “kiss my a**” to the delighted audience.
