Taylor Swift stole the show at the Super Bowl with these viral moments
Did Taylor Swift catch your attention during the Super Bowl?
All eyes were on Taylor Swift at the Super Bowl.
The Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in overtime at Allegiant Stadium, in Las Vegas at the Superbowl but arguably the winning moment everyone was talking about was when Chiefs' footballer Travis Kelce was seen kissing Swift following the big win.
This wasn't the only time that Swift caught the eye of viewers at home as she went viral for a number of fun moments over the star-studded night. From downing booze to blowing kisses to Kelce and hanging out with her showbiz pal Blake Lively, Swift was celebrated by viewers at home on social media.
Swift publicly has supported Kelce at many of his games so far and the Super Bowl is the biggest yet. She previously explained why she loves supporting him and why he loves celebrating her too.
"When you say a relationship is public, that means I’m going to see him do what he loves, we’re showing up for each other, other people are there and we don’t care," Swift told TIME magazine. "The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you’re seeing someone. And we’re just proud of each other."

Taylor Swift kisses Travis Kelce
Kelce celebrated his Super Bowl win with a kiss from Swift. On the field, the singing superstar showered the sports star in kisses and hugs as they celebrated his team's big win. The stars shared the romantic moment with the whole world watching as it was captured on cameras everywhere at the Super Bowl.
The Love Story hitmaker was on a break from her Eras tour. She had gone to great lengths to be there at the Super Bowl to support Kelce as Swift travelled to Los Angeles from Tokyo, where she had been performing her Eras tour. Her next tour date is on 16 February where she will perform on the other side of the world in Australia.
Their Love Story certainly got everyone talking over the course of the evening. They have become one of the hottest celebrity couples and it seems sparks first started flying in July when Kelce attended the second Kansas City show of Swift's Eras Tour.
As well as that kiss on the field, Swift blew many kisses from the stand during his winning speech.
