Taylor Swift thanks her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, during her VMAs acceptance speech for video of the year on Wednesday night.
“I would always just hear someone cheering from across the studio where we were shooting [the ‘Fortnight’ music video],” she fondly recalled while holding her “Moonman” statuette.
“And that one person was my boyfriend Travis. Everything this man touches turns into happiness and fun and magic and I want to thank him for adding that to our shoot because I’ll always remember that.”
