Travis Kelce has spoken out for the first time after Taylor Swift changed her song lyrics for him during her Eras tour.
The most talked about celebrity couple on the planet right now continue to delight fans.
Swift's Eras tour has been a huge success, with the world concert tour propelling the singer into billionaire status.
But during a recent performance of her hit track 'Karma' at her Buenos Aires, Argentina show, Swift decided to switch up the lyrics a bit in a nod to her current beau.

Normally, the lyrics are: "'Cause karma is my boyfriend, Karma is a god. Karma is the breeze in my hair on the weekend, Karma's a relaxing thought."
But Swift decided to mix things up, instead singing: “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me.”
Given that The Chiefs are Kelce's team, fans were very quick to catch on to what she was getting at.
And given the lyrics saying 'karma is my boyfriend', could this even be a not so subtle way of putting a label on the budding relationship between the pair?
Kelce could be seen in a box watching the show, and when he realised what had happened, he looked visibly touched by the tribute from Swift.
The NFL star put his hands to his head in delight, as fans screamed excitedly as to what had just happened.
And now, Kelce has spoken about the rather sweet moment, admitting to his brother Jason that Swift had hinted she would change up the lyrics prior the concert.
But the sports star was still very much shocked when Swift went through with it.
On the New Heights podcast, Jason asked his brother: "How does it feel to officially be the guy on the Chiefs?"
Laughing, Kelce instantly responded: "You mean 'Karma'? I had no clue! Well, I might have had a little bit of a clue.
"But definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth it still shocked me. Oh s**t she really said that!"
Kelce then touched on the trip to Argentina as a whole, admitting it was nice to visit somewhere new.
"It was a whole bunch of fun. I’ve never been south of the equator," he said.
"I got there Friday and left Sunday. Hoping I was gonna see Taylor’s second show, it got rained out. Lightning, electronics and water don’t mix.
"She wasn’t too happy, she prides herself on performing through all weather and rain but when it’s unsafe, you’ve got to do what you’ve got to do.
"Everybody was accommodated for whoever missed Friday to go on Sunday and it ended up being perfect."
He added: "The stadium was unbelievable, I forget what it was called. Instead of people having seats, everybody knew they were gonna stand. It was north of 65,000, like 70,000 three nights in a row.
"It’s crazy how many sold out shows she has and these venues that she’s keeps going to. I was blown away. It was an electric crowd too."
