Taylor Swift fans say she’s got a new pep in her step since she started dating Travis Kelce, and the clue is in her singing.
Swift, 34, went public with her relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end in September and confirmed they had been dating for a couple of months before that.
Prior to that, Swift dated English actor Joe Alwyn for about six years, but they broke up in early 2023, just before she was due to start her record-breaking The Eras Tour.
Swifties— the name of the singer’s fans— have compared performances of the Eras tour and claimed they could spot when she was visibly emotional, taking it as a sign of her heartbreak after the split from Alwyn.
A number of TikTok accounts posted a clip from the second night of her Chicago Eras shows in June 2023 against footage from a recent show in Singapore. Swift sings two surprise songs at every concert and on these two nights she sang I Don’t Want To Live Forever.
At the time of the Chicago concert, Swift apparently teared up when singing the line “I’m wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life.” But during her performance of the same song in Singapore, Swift was smiling and looking around the crowd as they sang along.
“She is healed,” wrote one person on TikTok.
