Kane Brown is sharing his thoughts on the viral photo of himself with Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
Speaking to PEOPLE in an exclusive conversation at the Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, where he gave a headlining performance, on Saturday, Nov. 22, the country music star discussed the September Instagram photo.
The photo — which also featured his wife, Katelyn Jae, as well as Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany Mahomes — was taken at 1587 Prime, a steakhouse that Kelce and Patrick opened together in Kansas City, Mo.
“We got some good traction. I mean … Taylor Swift [and] Travis Kelce is like the biggest couple in the world,” Kane, 32, said.
The group was at the restaurant to celebrate Kelce and Swift’s engagement along with Patrick’s 30th birthday — and the “Miles on It” singer had nothing but praise for the venue.
“It’s fire,” he said, while telling PEOPLE about his dining experience.
“They just brought out a bunch of entrees so I didn’t get to really order anything, but everything that I tried was so good,” he explained. “Highly recommend going, and then take a picture where we all took a picture out on the stairs.”

“Having [musician] VAVO with me will be cool,” he said ahead of the performance. “He did some remixes on my songs, so we’ll be up on a platform together.”
“Then, I got some two special guests, Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse,” he continued, referring to the Disney characters, adding, “It’s going to be a good time.”
