Kylie Kelce Praises Taylor Swift’s “Badass” Comment From New Heights

Kylie Kelce is singing hallelujah when it comes to this Taylor Swift take. 

After the “Wi$h Li$t” singer guested on “New Heights” with Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce on Aug. 13, it was Travis Kelce’s wife who highlighted a viral snippet of Taylor criticizing boisterous sports-loving males.

During her Not Gonna Lie podcast on August 21, Kylie mentioned that a popular sound from another podcast is one of the coolest things she’s heard. This sound is now being used by numerous women in the sports world, including ESPN analyst Mina Kimes.

In the previously mentioned video, Taylor humorously comments about her record-breaking stint on New Heights, stating, “It seems quite clear that when it comes to men who follow sports, there’s a common desire to see more of me in their arenas and on their screens.

Naturally, I couldn’t help but notice how the video was repurposed not just by those peripheral to the athletic realm, but also by sportswomen themselves such as Olympian Ilona Maher and gymnast Livvy Dunne. In essence, they too had claimed it as their own.

Kylie couldn’t contain her excitement, exclaiming, ‘This audio is fantastic!’ She adores it so much and appreciates that so many women in sports are embracing this new trend.

As the field hockey coach put it, “Men, get used to it suckas.”

On several occasions, following the criticism she faced for attending Kansas City Chiefs games starting from September 2023, Taylor has responded to her critics who show disdain towards her appearances in NFL events.

In 2023, she clarified to Time magazine that the camera is located about half a mile away, and its location and recording times are unknown to her. As a result, she’s unsure if her appearances on the broadcast are numerous (17 times) or few (once). She emphasized that she’s simply there to support Travis, without knowing if she might be shown excessively and potentially upsetting some fathers, Brad-types, and Chads.

Now that Taylor’s arrived in the Chiefs’ domain, she seems to be enjoying herself immensely by causing chaos, particularly among a specific group of fans.

During her interview on New Heights, she expressed that she had grown deeply passionate about football, even developing a strong fascination for it. Regarding her future as an analyst, she admitted that she isn’t quite prepared yet, but hinted at the possibility of stepping into that role within 16 months.

Although Taylor is familiar with the ball, as she was with Aristotle, continue reading to discover the reasons her relationship with Travis still leaves her feeling like she’s back in high school.

Even before Taylor Swift’s appearance at the Kansas City Chiefs’ game on September 24, 2023 turned into one of the most talked-about pop culture events of the year, Travis Kelce had been a fan of the Grammy-winning artist.

Back in August 2023, it was hinted through a Chiefs’ TikTok video, later shared by one of his teammates, that the star tight end had been privately dating Taylor. This revelation came to light only after the fact.

As Travis hesitated to reveal his celebrity crush, it turned out that wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling had already blurted out, “Taylor Swift!

Travis smiled at the camera before holding his finger up to his mustache, saying, “Alright now!”

As a devoted fan, I myself had the privilege of attending Taylor’s groundbreaking Eras Tour alongside numerous other renowned celebrities, long before any whispers of our blossoming relationship began to circulate. Yet, let’s delve deeper into that captivating instance at a later time…

Although Travis sometimes appears dreamy-eyed, particularly when watching Taylor on the big screen during one of their games, he seems to stand out somewhat compared to Taylor’s previous relationships when considering her past dating history.

She often finds herself drawn to individuals who are creative – be it actors like Joe Alwyn, Jake Gyllenhaal, Taylor Lautner, and Tom Hiddleston, or musicians such as Calvin Harris, John Mayer, Harry Styles, and more recently, Matty Healy.

Perhaps, this makes sense as to why Taylor’s new romance with the lighthearted and humorous athlete seems so appealing and different for her, following her six-year highly private relationship with Joe that ended in April 2023. This athlete renewed his contract with the Chiefs for another two years, worth $34.25 million in 2024.

As a devoted admirer, I’m thrilled to share that it appears my idol, the 10-time Pro Bowler, has had his heart’s desire come to fruition. He seemed to have attracted the superstar into his life through sheer force of will, determination, and open expressions of affection.

In my role as a lifestyle expert, I can share an embarrassing moment from July 7, 2023, during Taylor’s Eras Tour stop in Kansas City. There, I found myself with the courage to approach her. With a heart full of hope and a special gift in hand – a friendship bracelet bearing what I considered my unique identifier – I intended to make a connection.

However, my attempt didn’t go as planned, and I found myself in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. While the nature of the number on the bracelet remained unclear – whether it was my jersey number or phone number – the outcome was clear: I struck out. Lesson learned: Sometimes, it’s best to keep a low profile when trying to make a memorable impression!

Even though he claimed he was “disappointed” because they didn’t meet after the concert, Taylor later revealed to TIME magazine in December 2023 that she eventually received an invitation to his podcast.

She remembered thinking, “Travis hilariously exposed me on his podcast, and it was absolutely amazing,” when referring to an unexpected event. After this, they started spending time together. Fortunately, they had a substantial period of privacy that others were unaware of, which allowed them to deeply understand each other better.

In simpler terms, Taylor made it clear to TIME magazine that the idea of considering the September 24th game as their initial official date was not accurate. He emphasized that they wouldn’t be reckless or irrational enough to treat a first date like a major launch event.

After starting a relationship with Travis, Taylor Swift has become noticeably more visible in public, attending social events in New York City with friends, as well as enthusiastically gracing the stages of award ceremonies such as the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards and the 2024 Grammys.

Her highly discussed moment, however, was when she sat in Travis’ suite during the San Francisco Chief’s home game against the Chicago Bears on September 24, 2023.

Instead of avoiding the limelight, Taylor enthusiastically shouted “Come on, let’s do this!” when Travis scored a touchdown. Just like everyone else, even Travis was surprised by Taylor’s acceptance of his invitation.

On his New Heights podcast a few days later, Travis praised Taylor, saying, “It took some real courage for Taylor to show up like that.” He added, “What I found impressive was that everyone in the room, her friends and family included, only had positive things to say about her.

“She looked amazing,” he added. ” It was definitely a game I will remember, that’s for damn sure.”

Ever since then, Taylor and Travis have been spotted together at various romantic outings worldwide, with plenty of public displays of affection (PDA) at a festive bar in Kansas City being no exception.

Following her disclosure to TIME magazine about stepping away from the limelight after Kim Kardashian’s leaked phone conversation in 2016, Taylor Swift will be attending events tonight and every night as she pleases, no thanks needed for permission.

She expressed, “Time passes quickly, so seize opportunities for excitement. Spending countless years confined at home is something I can’t reclaim. I’ve grown more trusting in the last six years compared to before.

On his September 27, 2023 podcast, Travis feels comfortable discussing his past dealings with Taylor, but has made clear that he intends to respect his personal life’s privacy in future discussions.

He acknowledged that his actions attracted a lot of attention, stating, “I took part in the friendship bracelet trend and shared my disappointment about not meeting Taylor Swift.” Yet, he clarified that he had no intention of detailing every aspect of their relationship.

He made it clear that his personal life is important to him, and he wants to respect both of their lives. He’s been having a great time recently, and the weekend was no exception. Moving forward, he plans to limit conversations about sports and just say “alright nah” when necessary.

In a heart-pounding interview I had the pleasure of partaking in with the Wall Street Journal last November 2023, I redoubled my commitment to project an air of nonchalance.

As a dedicated individual, I find myself surrounded by well-meaning voices urging me not to make a mistake. In response, I reassure them, “Yes, I understand,” is what I say, and then turn my attention to the media buzz. The most crucial aspect for me was ensuring that I avoid any words or actions that could potentially drive Taylor away from me.

However, just because he hasn’t been able to keep quiet about his girlfriend, it doesn’t necessarily mean that he has resisted the urge. He has openly praised her for contributing to an increase in sales of his jersey and referred to her as “amazing” following an instance where she was jeered by New England Patriots fans at a game in December 2023.

He confessed to the Wall Street Journal, “I’ve never been one to express myself with many words.” However, being near her, observing Taylor’s intelligence, has left me utterly amazed. Every day, I continue to learn from this experience.

Travis, much like Taylor, comes from a family where he’s close with both parents, specifically his mom Ed and Donna Kelce.

In February 2023, Donna gained widespread admiration as her sons, Travis and Jason Kelce, squared off against each other in the Super Bowl for the first time. While Travis represented one team, his older brother Jason was a key player for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Donna expressed to ET that for her twins to complete their education, excel in professional sports, play in the Pro Bowl, and the Super Bowl, and then achieve what followed was like a dream come true. She said it was incredibly special for the family and simply amazing.

Donna, having been married to Ed for 25 years until their divorce, showed her allegiance to both her sons through a unique jacket displaying the logos of the Eagles and Chiefs football teams in black and red colors respectively.

Following the Super Bowl where the Chiefs triumphed over the Eagles, Travis and Jason became quite sentimental as they reminisced about their shared memories with Donna.

Jason expressed strong emotions when he first spotted his mom, as he shared during the brothers’ podcast episode of “New Heights”. He described the experience as incredibly inspiring, adding that she had reached new heights for an entire week.

Travis remarked, “She was the undisputed champion, and she consistently stood out throughout.

Similar to how Taylor shares a unique connection with her younger brother Austin Swift, Travis also shares a strong bond with his elder brother Jason, who motivated him to take up football.

Beyond excelling in their professional football careers, Travis and Jason embarked on a new venture by starting the podcast “New Heights” in September 2022. This endeavor not only deepened their bond but also boosted their financial standing.

In February 2023, Travis shared with NBC Sports that this setup provided us with a specific timeframe of about two to three hours each week where we need to communicate with one another. During these sessions, we discuss our experiences from the past week and the games. It’s been similar to therapy for us, he said.

Indeed, they didn’t physically meet until 2023, but there were some unseen connections binding them over time.

Taylor Swift and Travis Scott are friends with Miles Teller, as evidenced by the fact that the actor from Top Gun: Maverick and his wife Keleigh Sperry were recruited to appear in Taylor’s music video for “I Bet You Think About Me” from her album Red (Taylor’s Version) in 2021.

In the meantime, Travis participated in a golf practice session with Miles and Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes prior to the American Century Championship in 2022.

Miles shared a picture of us all on a golf course, captioning it as “Swing hard and far”. Travis then showed the bond is still strong by re-sharing the photo and commenting, “Just like old times!!”.

It might be interesting to note that Miles is an ardent fan of the Philadelphia Eagles. Maybe he used his connections to arrange a face-to-face meeting between Travis and Taylor?

On September 24, 2023, Taylor went to the game alone. However, on October 1st, she was accompanied by a group of celebrity friends when she attended the Chiefs’ game against the New York Jets at New Jersey’s Metlife Stadium.

She was joined by her close friends Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and Hugh Jackman, along with Sophie Turner, Sabrina Carpenter, and Antoni Porowski from Queer Eye.

Although attending the game expressed a lot, what truly stood out was Ryan deciding to follow Travis on Instagram instead.

Apart from participating in four Super Bowls, claiming victory in an impressive three of them (no big deal!), Travis has also graced the stage as a host on Saturday Night Live. This clearly indicates his ability to manage high-pressure situations with poise and grace.

It might appear insignificant, but Taylor has written numerous songs expressing her concern that her celebrity status could be overwhelming for her significant other, as suggested by her tracks “Peace” and “The Archer.

Taylor explained, “The situation changes based on who you’re with.” If they have strong reservations about it, you might find yourself concealing things or acting differently. However, I don’t prefer this situation because it makes me feel like I’m evading the authorities, or like a criminal on the run. I don’t want to live in fear, always worrying about being discovered while in a relationship.

“I feel like if you can be in a relationship and have it seem normal, that would be good.” 

In a recent interview with the Wall Street Journal, it was clear that Travis is well-equipped to handle the intense pressure associated with dating someone influential like Taylor.

In my experience, I haven’t encountered someone radiating such an alluring energy, and I haven’t had the opportunity to navigate those dynamics. However, I’m not shying away from embracing whatever comes my way in this realm.

Every day, she is constantly under intense public scrutiny, with paparazzi lurking outside her house and every restaurant she visits, as well as at airports whenever she arrives. Despite this, she manages to live and enjoy life. In response to that kind of behavior, I’d rather not draw attention to myself.”

The original sentence is a bit complex due to the repetition of “outside” and the use of informal language such as “magnifying glass on her.” The paraphrased version aims to be more straightforward and easier to understand while retaining the main idea.

Demonstrating a romance fit for a movie, fans were thrilled when footage surfaced during a concert in Argentina, November 2023, showing Taylor running into Travis’ arms and sharing a heartfelt kiss after their performance. This affectionate moment followed an unexpected change Taylor made to her song “Karma,” altering the lyrics from “the guy on the screen” to “the guy on the Chiefs,” which surprised Travis as he attended the event with Taylor’s father, Scott Swift.

Demonstrating commitment by attending each other’s team events – such as Taylor going to 13 Chiefs games during her first season with Travis, even flying directly from her concert in Tokyo to attend the Super Bowl – clearly illustrates the depth and sincerity of their relationship.

Taylor shared with TIME that they’ll be there to witness him pursuing his passion, expressing mutual support. Others will also be present, yet their focus remains on their relationship. As for some couples, they go to great lengths to keep their relationship hidden, but we’re just proud of each other and unapologetic about it.

If her attendance at NFL games bothers you, rest assured, there’s no feud or ill-will between you and Taylor worth mentioning.

There’s a camera positioned approximately half a mile away, its location is unknown to me, and I don’t know when it might be capturing me. Consequently, I’m unsure if I appear on screen 17 times or just once. All I want is to support Travis. I have no clue if my visibility might be excessive and potentially upsetting a few fathers, bros named Brad, or individuals called Chad.

Travis was born in—are you ready for it?—1989. Screaming, crying, throwing up, etc.

As for Killa Trav’s birthday, it’s on October 5th. Fun fact: that’s also the birthdate of Marjorie Finlay, who was featured in Taylor Swift’s song “Marjorie” from her 2020 album ‘evermore’. If you didn’t know, this could be seen as a strange coincidence…
