The Sneaky Way Patrick Mahomes Learned About Taylor Swift Album Early

Patrick Mahomes has been ready for it.

The NFL quarterback admitted that he and his wife, Brittany Mahomes, learned about Taylor Swift‘s new album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” shortly after they recorded the “New Heights” podcast episode with Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce. It was during this session that Taylor Swift shared the exciting news about her upcoming album.

During a Kansas City Chiefs press conference on August 13, Patrick shared that he wasn’t directly contacted after the podcast but instead, it was Brittany who received the call. He mentioned that he was off-screen during the FaceTime conversation.

However, he noted that when he got the call, “It surprised me, too.”

Although Taylor intended to reveal some information to another Chief’s spouse, Patrick expressed his enthusiasm for the music, which is equal to Brittany’s eagerness.

Even though Taylor wanted to share secrets with a fellow Chief’s partner, Patrick stated that he’s equally excited about the music, just like Brittany.

The Super Bowl champion couldn’t hide his immense enthusiasm. He shared, ‘Being able to witness Taylor at work on her music, even from a distance, has been incredible. I can’t wait to see the result because I know how much effort and passion she pours into her creations.’

Furthermore, he’s delighted that she chose to reveal this news during an episode of Travis’ podcast, a show that Swifties have been following ever since the couple started dating in 2023.

Patrick mentioned that there’s no better platform than the “New Heights” podcast for making this announcement, as he believes it’s a place where she can authentically express herself and reveal her true self. He added that everyone will undoubtedly be thrilled to witness what’s happening tonight.

As to whether or not Patrick has seen the highly anticipated episode?

He mentioned that he hasn’t watched the full thing yet, but plans to catch up with it tonight as he has only seen brief glimpses, similar to many others.

As a die-hard fanatic, I can’t help but echo the excitement that Patrick feels as Taylor, the esteemed Grammy winner, gears up to cheer for his team this fall! After all, who can forget the heartwarming moments when Travis has openly expressed the profound impact it has on him when she passionately cheers from the stands at Arrowhead Stadium? Truly, Taylor’s support is a beacon of inspiration for us all!

He shared on The Pat McAfee Show in January 2024 that it brings him joy when Taylor visits, cheers him on, and spends quality time with family and friends during the game. Essentially, they’re there for each other, enjoying the moments together.

Ever since then, I’ve found myself evolving from just a casual football fan to becoming a bona fide expert on Taylor’s gameplay.

In a recent interview with GQ, he shared that she has become the most passionate fan, immersing herself deeply into his career. Now, she’s well-versed in understanding injury reports, recognizing special situations like third and short, and even taking interest in the intricacies of his job, all due to her genuine love for what he does.

For more easter eggs leading up to the album announcement on New Heights, read on.

Taylor Swift probably wouldn’t have displayed a countdown clock on her site, counting down to “12:12 AM ET” and showcasing a sparkly orange backdrop, without any specific purpose in mind.

On August 12, 2024, Taylor was captured on camera sporting a coordinated plaid mini-skirt and tailored crop jacket-and there was nothing naive or confused about her stylish ensemble.

According to detective Kristen (@perfectlyfine89), it’s worth noting that Taylor appears to be deliberately making eye contact with the camera, and her orange and green attire seems to harmonize with the color scheme of the cover of “The Life of a Showgirl” book, which Taylor discussed on Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast one year later.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’m excited to share a sneak peek from my timeline! At precisely 12:12 a.m. ET on August 12, 2025, I found myself holding a striking mint-green briefcase with the initials “T.S.” boldly emblazoned in vibrant orange. This mysterious case housed the cover art for what promises to be my 12th studio album – a masterpiece that, while blurred at the moment, is undeniably green and orange! Stay tuned for more updates as I continue to unravel this musical journey.

Without a doubt, Taylor has a strong affinity for plaid, as evidenced by her choice to don a tartan outfit at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards. It was there that she famously declared, “my boyfriend Travis.

Pre-orders for “The Life of a Showgirl” are now open on Taylor’s official website, indicating that all desired formats, including vinyl, CD, and cassette, will be shipped prior to October 13th.

Undeniably, Taylor Swift’s association with the number 13 is quite evident. However, what I find fascinating as well is that October 3rd, or 10-3, not only equates to 13 but also celebrates National Plaid Day and National Boyfriend’s Day! Isn’t that a remarkable coincidence for an ardent fan like myself?

Looking back, it’s clear that every new phase in Taylor’s career was unforgettable, just like how 20/13 vision is perfect in the “Taylorverse.” On August 11, her official social media accounts shared a series of 12 pictures capturing different orange outfits she wore on stage, accompanied by a caption that read, “Reflecting on when she promised ‘I’ll see you next time…’

On a particular episode of New Heights, airing on August 13th at 7 p.m. ET, Travis and Jason played a somewhat lackluster prank by hinting at an “extremely exceptional guest.” This episode is indeed special, and to even the most casual Taylor Swift fans, it appeared that the silhouette in the promotional material was undeniably Taylor herself.

In anticipation of the event, the Empire State Building was illuminated orange from the top. The official account for this New York City landmark shared a picture of the perfectly matching structure on August 11 at 1:45 p.m. ET with the caption, “Until we meet again in the next chapter.

On October 18, 2024, a TikTok from Taylor’s initial Miami performance during the Eras Tour was posted, featuring her posing before Section A12 at Hard Rock Stadium, which seemed to hint at August 12 (possibly referencing album number 12).

Later on, she donned a sparkly orange bodysuit, exclaiming “Miami, we’re back!”, followed by a green skirt and an orange bustier during the performance of her 1989 songs. To add to the spectacle, she also wore a flashy white feathery costume while singing “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart”.

Her way of saying that her next album was finished and this is what it looks like?

Sure thing!

“Just to clarify, it’s worth mentioning that in addition to orange and green, the Miami Hurricanes actually have two official colors. However, don’t let that confuse you – it’s entirely possible for multiple facts to be true at once!

The playlist on Spotify is called “That’s show business for you” and it’s symbolic, as it already bears the recognizable orange T.S. letters on a green backdrop.

There are, you know, 22 tunes by Taylor that have been produced, and interestingly enough, they were all crafted by the acclaimed duo Max Martin and Shellback (also known as Karl Johan Schuster). This has fueled the excitement among fans who speculate that she wrote the entirety of ‘The Life of a Showgirl’ during her tour in Europe, with these two helping her bring it to life.

Listeners spotted that the backdrop of the “New Heights” podcast showcased numerous boxes in colors like orange, red, white, and purple, each displaying the initials “T.S.” This suggestive arrangement might hint towards potential album versions or additional music that could be released in the future.

Taylor Swift found appealing on an old fan theory on a platform known as Twitter. This theory suggested that Lady Gaga intentionally released her track “Applause” exactly 12 years after the date when Taylor announced her show ‘Life of a Showgirl’. The intriguing aspect? Taylor had been using “Applause” as her opening number before every performance on the Eras Tour, together with Lesley Gore’s “You Don’t Own Me”.

Taylor appreciated a fan’s post that subtly suggested a potential collaboration with Lady Gaga: “Does this seem like an incredible coincidence, or might it be indicative of her creative genius?

Fans of Taylor Swift started wondering if Sabrina Carpenter might be part of “Life of a Showgirl” since she appeared in the twelfth photo from Taylor Nation’s sneak peek of the upcoming era. Moreover, Sabrina posted a message on her website with an August 12 date, which further fueled these speculations.
