Taylor Swift Fans Are Spiraling Over Subtle Detail in New Photo With Boyfriend Travis Kelce

‘He can’t keep getting away with this,’ one fan wrote.

Taylor Swift is known for her trademark red lipstick, which never seems to fade (even after hours onstage). But now fans think they might have discovered the one thing powerful enough to mess with Swift’s crimson pout: Travis Kelce.

On Friday, Dec. 19, an eagle-eyed Swiftie took to X to post a zoomed-in photo of the pop star from her recent Eras Tour wrap party with a telling detail: In the photo (which crops out Kelce), Swift’s lipstick appears to be smudged.

“That lipstick can make it through rain, extreme heat and a 3.5 hour concert………..” the X user pointed out.

“travis mwah mwah mwah kelce always at the scene of the crime,” a second person captioned the same post.

More fans agreed in the comments that Kelce must have been to blame for the makeup mishap.

“killakissing,” someone wrote.

“COUNT 1 GUILTY,” joked another fan.

“he can’t keep getting away with this!!” somebody else declared.

“No match for Yeti beard,” said yet another fan.

Swift’s lipstick has been a topic of hot debate for years, with fans trying to match her exact shade—eventually revealed to be Pat McGrath Labs LiquiLUST Legendary Wear Lipstick in Elson 4.

In 2011, Swift shared her secret for turning regular lipstick into a long-wearing stain with Allure, saying: “There are tricks I’ve learned from makeup artists on shoots. They put on the red lipstick, then blot it with a tissue, then they put powder over the tissue and sort of press it onto your lips.”
