Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Rare Podcast Kiss Feels Straight Out of a Rom-Com
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce revealed quite a bit about their relationship during Swift's two-hour appearance on New Heights yesterday. But one of their most heartwarming moments didn't involve words at all. At the end of the podcast, the pair kissed, marking a rare PDA moment. Co-host and third wheel Jason Kelce quipped, 'Oh my gosh, all right,' watching them.
The kiss came after the couple discussed how Travis's previous comments about Swift on New Heights led to their real-life romance. Back in 2023, Travis spoke about his failed attempt to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it during her Kansas City Eras Tour show.
'This kind of felt more like I was in an '80s John Hughes movie and he was just like standing outside of my window with a boombox, just being like, 'I want to date you,'' Swift began.
'I was like, if this guy isn't crazy, which is a big if, this is sort of what I've been writing songs about wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager,' she added.
Travis recalled being at the concert, saying, 'And I was sitting there at the Eras Tour, listening to every single one of the songs. Like she, I know what she wants me to do. I feel that that's what she wants me to do.'
Swift said that with his grad gesture, Travis proved he's 'the good kind of crazy. I knew that he wasn't crazy the first couple of times that we talked. I was just like, he's truly getting to know me in a way that's very natural, very pure, very normal. Also, just the way that he could make me laugh so immediately about normal things... Travis is like, he's just a vibe-booster in everyone's life that he's in. He's like a human exclamation point. He's like when you take a picture on your phone and you push the enhanced color button, that's like what you do to everyone's life. I've used so many more exclamation points now, but I think it was just like...you're so non-judgmental about people. And you were not judgmental about the fact that I knew nothing about the [football] world you were in.'
Travis later spoke about watching Swift onstage. 'I give the Eras Tour credit because if I would have never gone to that show and been mesmerized and just been captivated and then left with such a desire to want to meet you, I would have never went on here and told everybody how butthurt I was,' he told his girlfriend. 'I had never just been so engulfed in the curiosity of who you were.'
His brother, Jason, praised Swift for teaching Travis the word 'engulfed.'
Travis responded, 'She makes me so much better.'
Of meeting her, he told Swift, 'You see you on the stage and you see how crazy you can get an entire stadium going, and then I get you in a room and it's like I've known you forever. It was just the easiest conversation I ever had, and it was just so much fun that it just—it knocked my socks off.'
'Thank you. I felt the same exact way as you,' Swift admitted.
Travis stressed, 'I had never I had never experienced something so mesmerizing on stage and then so real and so beautiful in person.'
'Hey, that's wonderful,' Swift said.
Jason then asked, 'Should I leave?'
His brother replied, 'Yeah, I think so. Honestly, at this point, I think everyone should leave.'

All the Easter Eggs Taylor Swift Dropped About Doing the Super Bowl Halftime Show
THE RUNDOWN Fans have been clamoring for Taylor Swift to perform at the Super Bowl for ages, but rumors 2026 might finally be the year started swirling after the Eras Tour star appeared on boyfriend Travis Kelce's New Heights podcast this week. Swifties know that the singer loves to hide 'Easter eggs' hinting at her next move in all sorts of places—in her music videos, on her website, during live performances, and now, perhaps, when talking to Travis and his brother, Jason Kelce. To begin with, Swift openly referred to the Super Bowl Halftime Show, saying she has watched every single one, which means the topic is on her mind. But the other hints were not quite so obvious. A big one is that Swift joked that she thinks about sourdough '60% of the time.' The San Francisco 49ers are hosting the 60th Super Bowl at Levi's Stadium in 2026, and who is their mascot? Sourdough Sam. Both the number and mention of bread types was a big flag to Swift's fans. Speaking of numbers, Swift mentioned the number 47 during the episode, specifically thanking Jason for his intro and screaming for '47 seconds.' Levi's Stadium was Swift's 47th stop on her Eras Tour, leading some listeners to think she would be returning soon. And Swift has talked about 13 being her favorite number in the past, four plus seven is 13, and 2026 will be Travis's 13th NFL season. It all adds up! Finally, Swift has said before that she would not perform a halftime show at the Super Bowl before she owned or rerecorded all of her masters. The star finally bought the original masters back this year after rerecording several of her iconic albums already. And her newest album, The Life of a Showgirl, is coming out in October, making a February Super Bowl show a perfect moment of public triumph.

A Taylor Swift Super Bowl halftime show is gaining steam. In the days since the pop star joined boyfriend Travis Kelce's 'New Heights' podcast, the rumor mill has churned about a potential on-stage appearance at Levi's Stadium during the Big Game. And prediction markets have followed. Since Swift's podcast appearance, her odds of being the headline performer at Super Bowl 2026 have skyrocketed. 4 Taylor Swift performing on the Eras Tour.

Kalshi is a CFTC-licensed derivative market that allows betting on real-life events. Now, with her fans speculating that the 14-time Grammy award winner hinted toward a potential Super Bowl halftime appearance during her conversation with Kelce and his older brother, ex-Eagles star Jason Kelce, Swift is suddenly a massive favorite to get behind the mic in Santa Clara. 4 Kalshi is giving Taylor Swift a 59 percent chance to be the Super Bowl 60 halftime performer as of 12 p.m. ET on Saturday.

Taylor Swift Promises Showgirl Will Stay at 12 Songs — & Fans Think She's Addressing Something Bigger
Taylor Swift is putting her foot down on her next era — at least for now. During her New Heights podcast appearance alongside Travis Kelce earlier this week, Swift made a point to clarify that The Life of a Showgirl, her forthcoming 12th studio album, will feature exactly 12 songs. No deluxe edition teased, no bonus tracks hinted at, no endless carousel of vinyl colorways. Just 12. For a star who's been both celebrated and criticized for her multi-edition rollouts, the comment landed with extra weight. On Reddit, fans immediately connected it to backlash Swift has faced in recent years, particularly during The Tortured Poets Department. That album not only arrived as a surprise double release but also came with a flood of vinyl variants — a strategy that drew fire for both its cost to fans and its environmental footprint. More from SheKnows 13 Showgirl-Orange Pieces That'll Get You Ready for Taylor Swift's Latest Album & Era - Starting at Just $10 'I actually believe this on the basis that a lot of this album and its concept seem to be a response to the criticism of TTPD,' one fan wrote. 'Overly verbose, overly long, overly overwrought lyrics on TTPD to a tight 12 track pop album sounds about right.' Another added more bluntly: 'TTPD had way too many songs and all the variants was ridiculous.' The shift isn't just coming from Swift, either. In April 2025 — about a year after the TTPD variant avalanche — Billboard finally stepped in, capping the number of editions that can count toward the charts at four. It was a clear move to stop the cycle of endless covers, bonus tracks, and bundle tricks that made fans feel squeezed and critics cry 'manipulation.' As one fan put it, 'I hope this means the variants that are out now are the only ones, and she took the criticism of 'variant overload' to heart. The planet thanks her.' This isn't the first time Swift's release strategy has been tangled in larger debates. In May 2024, she dropped new editions of TTPD the day before Billie Eilish's latest album, prompting speculation that Swift was responding to Eilish's public critique of wasteful vinyl practices. Whether intentional or not, it solidified Swift's reputation as an artist unafraid to multiply her product lines — much to the dismay of eco-conscious fans. Now, the deliberate simplicity of Showgirl feels pointed. 'Do you guys think she will release a variant every few weeks for the next five months?' one commenter asked. 'I hope she doesn't. That felt very very greedy to me.' Another said they were simply relieved: 'I STILL haven't gotten a hold of everything from TTPD or Midnights. The oversaturation just makes me feel like I'm missing out.' Of course, Swifties are also reading the numbers. Twelve isn't random in Swift's world: it's her 12th album, arriving on October 3, and fans have long pointed out her love of numerology and coded significance. 'This era is filled with her listening to criticism,' a Redditor argued. 'I would put money on her not adding ANY songs to the album. She would not have said that unless she was certain.' Whether The Life of a Showgirl truly stops at 12 tracks remains to be seen. But for now, Swift's bluntness suggests a new kind of restraint — and fans can't help but wonder if the message is as much about the music as it is about the criticism that's followed her. And, if you're looking for signs, it doesn't hurt that her pared-back new era officially arrives on October 3 — a date forever immortalized in Mean Girls. For Swifties, it might just be another wink that she knows exactly what she's doing. Before you go, click to see all of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's cutest PDA moments.
