Jason Kelce is giving Out 13 scholarships to School Children in “Honour” of His Retirement, including the 8-Year-Old Taylor Swift Fan He Once Raised Shirtless During Chiefs Game
In case you missed it, during Sunday’s Buffalo Bills versus Kansas City Chiefs NFL playoff game — which Swift attended to cheer on her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce — a young Swift fan, Ella Piazza, was in the stands with her mom, holding up a handmade sign for Swift in the hopes of getting her attention.
And thanks to Travis’ brother, Jason Kelce, she got her wish, with the Philadephia Eagles center picking up Ella in his arms and lifting her up so Swift could see her from inside the suite. Ella waved to the pop star, who waved back, with the adorable moment going viral on social media.
On Tuesday, Ella and her mom, Jessica, appeared on TODAY, recalling the sweet moment, which the 8-year-old said she willed to happen all on her own.
“I was thinking positive, but some of my friends weren’t that positive,” she said to Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie.
Jessica shared how it all went down, revealing that their group was actually sitting on the opposite side of the stadium.
Then, a friend who was sitting in front of the suite where Swift was with the Kelces, offered to switch seats with Jessica and Ella during halftime so the singer could see Ella and her sign that read: “Buffalo Bills + Taylor Swift – Best First Game Ever.”
