Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made separate, brief cameos on “Saturday Night Live” in its return to the air.
Swift, 33, popped up for a brief introduction of musical guest Ice Spice, telling the crowd “Once again, Ice Spice” before the Bronx native’s second performance.
Kelce, 34, capped off a two-minute parody sketch of the NFL’s coverage of the couple’s budding love story. Kenan Thompson played an exasperated network host (Fox’s Curt Menefee), who did not know the rest of his crew was trouble and struggled to get them talking about anything other than Swift.
At the end, Thompson promises to speak with “someone who actually wants to talk about football.” The show then cuts to Kelce shouting, “Yes! Please!”
Swift and Kelce were also spotted together before and after the show. They held hands while walking into Nobu before heading north to 30 Rock, TMZ reported. They later joined the “SNL” after-party at Catch Steak in Chelsea, according to the outlet, sticking around until 4 a.m.
Kelce made full use of his Sunday off after he and the Chiefs defeated the Denver Broncos 19-8 on Thursday night. Swift was in attendance for the third time this season.
It was a busy week for the singer, who was in Los Angeles on Wednesday night for the premiere of her Eras Tour movie, Kansas City on Thursday night for the football game and New York on Saturday night for “SNL.”
No word on if Kelce got Swift to walk Cornelia Street again.
