Despite Travis Kelce’s absence from her Eras Tour show in Dublin on Friday night, Taylor Swift still gave a few nods to the NFL player during her performance.
Swift, 34, playfully reenacted Kelce’s signature archer pose while performing “Midnight Rain” off her Grammy-winning album “Midnights” — a nod to the Super Bowl champ’s famed touchdown dance — seemingly telling the crowd at Aviva Stadium that things are still going strong between the pair.
A fan’s recording of the concert shows the singer pretending to use a bow and arrow just after she sings the lyric: “And he never thinks of me / Except when I’m on TV.”

The three-time Super Bowl champion previously spoke about how his signature pose came to be on an episode of his “New Heights” podcast last October.
“I always wanted to do something when I ran out of the tunnel,” the Chiefs player said.
“I’m like, ‘Man, you know what’s really been motivating for me?’ It’s to always dream big [and] always shoot for the stars, so I’m just out there shooting for the stars, baby.”
Swift also hit the pose during her London show last week.@moonlithoax/X

That’s not the only reference she gave to her boyfriend of nearly a year. Swift also wore a special piece of jewelry with a sweet nod to Kelce featured prominently on it.
Fans noticed the pop star re-wore her Tiffany & Co. Tiffany T Diamond Wire Ring ($2,675), which features a duo of diamond-dotted Ts — the couple’s initials.
Swift wore the same yellow-gold band last weekend ahead of Kelce’s surprise onstage appearance.

The couple sent Swifties into a frenzy at her Wembley show in London when Kelce joined the “Trouble” singer on stage while performing a skit for the “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” transition.
Per a fan video, the NFL tight end approached his girlfriend and picked her up from a pretend faint before he seemingly whispered something to the songstress as she laid in his arms.
Kelce donned a black suit with a matching top hat for the show while Swift wore a long white dress.
Another fan video revealed the singer also performed the same archer pose at her London show.
