Only hours after landing in Australia, Taylor Swift was “shaken up” by the horrific shooting at the Kansas City Chiefs parade and made a frantic phone call to her boyfriend Travis Kelce in the wee hours of the morning.
The 34-year-old pop sensation was on the phone with her tight end while she was on the Australian leg of her Eras World Tour.a few hours after her arrival in Australia, at the Kansas City Chiefs parade.
Shortly after gunfire broke out on the west side of Union Station at 1:48 pm local time on Wednesday, the pop superstar, 34, who is presently on the Australian leg of her Eras World Tour, was on the phone to someone close to her at around 6 am Melbourne time.
After the event that resulted in one death, she called her new friend Brittany Mahomes, whose husband Patrick is Travis’s teammate. The two found solace in each other.As was to be expected, Taylor was very concerned when she learned of the incident, an insider exclusively told DailyMail.com. As soon as she could, she called Travis and was overjoyed to hear his voice.
“She talked to Brittany as well, and this tragedy really affected them.”
An insider told DailyMail.com that Taylor Swift was “shaken up” upon learning of the horrific Kansas City Chiefs parade shooting on Wednesday.
The source described how, as more details about the victims came to light, Taylor was left “heartbroken” to discover that one person had passed away.
A ‘personal quarrel’ turned violent, and Lisa Lopez-Galvan, 44, was slain when two young gunmen opened fire in the throng. Nine children were among the twenty-one injured. After the event, three persons were taken into custody.
Taylor gave the bereaved family of the Kansas City radio DJ two donations totaling $50,000 each to the GoFundMe campaign.
The insider continued, “She was devastated to learn of the death and she hopes her donation helps.”
“She is sending all her love and support to the Kansas City community because she has so much love for it.” Taylor wrote: “Sending my deepest sympathies and condolences in the wake of your devastating loss” in response to receiving the donation. Greetings, Taylor Swift.
The 34-year-old Travis also tweeted, informing followers that the violence had left him “heartbroken.”
He then carried on his celebration of winning the Super Bowl by dining with his Chiefs colleagues at a nearby restaurant. Taylor wrote: “Sending my deepest sympathies and condolences in the wake of your devastating loss” in response to receiving the donation. Greetings, Taylor Swift.

He then carried on his celebration of winning the Super Bowl by dining with his Chiefs colleagues at a nearby restaurant.
In an exclusive photo obtained by DailyMail.com, the three-time Super Bowl winner was seen posing with teammate Patrick Mahomes’ wife Brittany.
He has not yet replied to criticism on his ongoing festivities, which some have called a “red flag.”
In a fit of passion during the game, Travis shoved his 65-year-old coach, Andy Reid, which raised the first warning flag on Sunday during the Super Bowl itself.
“Honestly, Travis yelling at coach Reid like that was surprising and a little bit concerning to Taylor’s friends simply because they were not aware that he even had a side to him like that,” the insider said to DailyMail.com at the time.
‘They understand that it’s the biggest game of the year and that there is a lot on the line, but Travis is a professional and ought to have behaved himself a little more civilizedly rather than yelling at his coach in that manner.
According to Taylor’s buddies, this was his first warning sign, and even Taylor was a little taken aback. As a professional, she has never lost her temper on someone to that extent.
The insider clarified that the singer’s entire family was present to watch the outburst, which made things worse.
They went on: “Her friends and family were present as well.” He was aware of this. It was supposed to be easier for Travis to remain composed.
“Some people in relationships would find it extremely upsetting to hear someone shout like that.”
Travis explained to the reporters following the game that he was angry because he “wanted the score to be different.”
After the win, Travis hugged him, according to what his coach subsequently told ESPN: “He came over and gave me a hug, said “Sorry about that.” All he wants is to be on the field, ready to play.
Then, just before the horrific massacre, his inebriated appearance during the Chiefs’ championship parade alarmed fans.
