Taylor Swift Pokes Fun At Travis Kelce's Brother Jason For Obsessing Over His 'Beer' When He Met Royal Family

Elle4 days ago
Taylor Swift had a laugh at the expense of her potential brother-in-law, Jason Kelce, while making her debut appearance on his podcast New Heights on Wednesday.
During the nearly two hour-long episode, Swift spoke about how Travis made his on-stage debut with her for her Eras Tour shows at Wembley Stadium. 'Wasn't this the week that I got to watch Jason meet the Royal Family?' Swift recalled, before she and Travis, proceeded to poke fun at Jason for his neurotic concerns about his demeanour before meeting Prince William and two of his children, Princess Charlotte and Prince George.
The hitmaker ended up immortalising the performances with selfies featuring the Prince of Wales — who was celebrating his birthday at the concerts. 'I knew you were serious when I was like, "Jason, do you want to go meet [them]?"' she continued, and Travis chimed in to narrate his older brother's reaction.
'He was like, "What do I do with my beer?"' the Kansas City Chiefs tight end said.
Swift played off her boyfriend, adding: 'I watched him have this moment with his beer where he's just like, "But I want to take it. But I know that I probably should not take it."
'I watched this happen and it was kind of the most amazing [thing],' she said with a laugh.
Jason then confirmed that Swift was 'exactly' right about his tortured mental process at the time.
'If I don't have my beer, what do I do with this hand now? Or am I just, like, being authentic by having the beer? I would normally have the beer. Wouldn't they want me to be myself?' Swift said as she mocked Jason's mental back-and-forth.
'I'm watching you say that in your head,' she clarified, adding that it was a 'fantastic' show for her. 'I'll always remember that.'
Travis added, after meeting the Royals, that Prince William was 'the coolest motherf***er.' He added that he didn't realise Prince George and Princess Charlotte would also be there, but they turned out to be an 'absolute delight to meet' as well.

Former FBI Director James Comey confesses he's a 'Swiftie' in new anti-Trump video message

Former FBI Director James Comey confessed in a strange video Sunday that Taylor Swift has been his family's soundtrack — and a source of life advice on handling bullies. He also took swipes at President Donald Trump while bragging about a family "Swiftie" group chat and talking about how he blasts "Tay Tay" while mowing the lawn. Comey opened by accusing Trump of humiliating America alongside Vladimir Putin, calling it "a bad dream you can't wake up from." Comey said he's been to two Swift concerts and even helped relatives afford tickets. "I'm in a family's Switie group chat. I know all her music and I listen to it in my headphones when I cut the grass," Comey said. His favorites? The 10-minute "All Too Well" and "Exile" with Bon Iver. "Taylor Swift has grown up with my family and provided us a soundtrack, really, as we've grown ourselves and learned and adapted and dealt with adversity and celebration," he said, adding that millions of families likely feel the same. Comey explained that at every stage of Swift's career, she has shown a way that resonated with kids, which also felt right to him as a parent, and she has continued to do that even as an adult artist. Comey said Swift's example helps him resist "bullies" without becoming like them. He contrasted that with satirical posts mocking Trump, which he called funny but also troubling. "But I gotta be honest, it also leaves me with a strange feeling at times, because I don't want us to become like Trump and his followers," he continued. "There are far more decent, honest, kind people in America than there are mean jerks. And don't get me wrong, we have our jerks, millions of them." He accused the GOP of "stunning coarseness," while saying it's a minority view in America. "I am not an advocate for weakness. Of course, we need to stand up to jerks and defend what matters, but I think we have to try to do that without becoming like them, which is what makes me think about Taylor Swift," he said. "She's made clear that she sees Donald Trump for what he is. Last year, she urged Americans not to make the serious mistake of electing him. "Of course, we're now living with the consequences of that mistake. But while our elderly makeup-covered president is posting about whether Taylor Swift is still hot and declaring that he can't stand her, what's she doing? Living her best life, producing great music and, as she urged all of us to do during the podcast, not giving the jerks power over her mind," Comey continued. He cited Swift's advice to treat personal energy "like a luxury item" and linked it to research showing rudeness makes people less happy. "We can't stop people from being jerks. What we can do is stop it from hurting us, from changing us," he added. He then talked about the second time he saw Swift in concert, 14 years ago in Hartford, Connecticut. During the concert, he said, Swift sang a song, asking nasty people, "why you gotta be so mean." "I bet you got pushed around. Somebody made you cold. But the cycle ends right now, because you can't leave me down that road," Comey said, reciting Swift's lyrics for 'Mean.' "You'll be glad I didn't sing that. That's right, because down that road of unhappiness, nobody should have that power over us." The video went viral, with one user calling it "the creepiest video in the history of social media" and another writing, "It's truly mind-blowing this man served as FBI director." Comey has a history of provocative posts, including an "86 47" seashell photo that drew backlash and a "Vote Harris" shell he shared last year.

Travis Kelce Shares His 'Only Goal': And It Has Nothing to Do With Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce has gone from NFL star to full-blown pop culture sensation, a far cry from the career path he once imagined. Now, in 2025, he's laser-focused on one 'only goal,' and it's not what you imagined. In an interview with GQ, he claims that amid all the chatter surrounding his relationship with Taylor Swift, he's got a more serious issue to deal with. He is looking to regroup from the Kansas City Chiefs' Super Bowl loss by working with speed and agility coach Tony Villani. 'Win a Super Bowl is the only goal,' Kelce reveals. 'It's the only goal. It's every goal.' He added, 'I think it might have slipped a little bit because I did have a little bit more focus in trying to set myself up. And opportunities came up where I was excited to venture into a new world of acting and being an entertainer.' COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what's next. Buy. Collect. Obsess. While Kelce doesn't feel his outside ventures hurt his football career, he realizes that he hasn't been working up to his 'standard.' He says, 'I don't say this as 'I shouldn't have done it.' I'm just saying that my work ethic is such that I have so much pride in how I do things that I never want the product to tail off.' 'I feel like these past two years haven't been up to my standard. I just have such a motivation to show up this year for my guys.' This motivation pushes Kelce to try and remain a role model. He knows he has a worldwide platform not only via his football career, but also via his relationship with Swift. The athlete admits, 'I do want people to look at me like I'm doing good in the world, I'm influencing and using my platform for the better, being a role model, being somebody that has done it the right way.' Travis Kelce hosts the New Heights podcast with his brother, Jason Kelce.
