12 questions we want Jason, Travis Kelce to ask Taylor Swift on ‘New Heights' podcast
While the show isn't a blueprint for journalism or a heavy-hitting program, Swift is nonetheless in the hot seat. Conversations will be had. Questions will be asked. Answers may be given.
How much Swift reveals about her next studio album, 'The Life of a Showgirl,' remains to be seen. But she chose the brothers' show to announce it. The number of eyeballs and downloads the show will deliver could be record-setting.
In honor of Swift's 12th album, here are 12 questions the Kelce brothers should ask Swift.
Is there any part of you that still roots for the Eagles?
As Jason Kelce noted in the introduction clip that made social-media rounds Wednesday, Swift is from Pennsylvania originally. Her previous Eagles fandom is well-documented. With the Eagles and Chiefs playing each other in two of the last three Super Bowls, it's worth asking.
What was her reaction to being booed at the Super Bowl?
In New Orleans in February, the Caesars Superdome jumbotron showed Swift in the first half. The boos came ferociously – on brand from the Eagles contingent. Sometimes, it's your own people who turn against you the most.
Who's her favorite player on the Chiefs – not named Travis Kelce or Patrick Mahomes?
The qualification of this question is key. Obviously No. 1 is 'Trav.' Mahomes is too easy of a copout. Make her go down the roster and reveal some of the knowledge she's picked up.
How many songs on the new album are about Travis?
'So High School' alluded to the Chiefs tight end on her most recent album. But after a couple of years of worldwide and whirlwind romance, there has to be more, right?
How many lyrics are about the Chiefs? Or football in general?
And with that will certainly come some references to 'Chiefs Kingdom' or the gridiron, one would presume.
Who was the best hang at the Super Bowl 58 after-party?
Swift and Kelce were part of the Chiefs' crew that partied in Vegas after last year's Super Bowl win. Did anybody impress her with their dancing or partying ability?
Are you engaged?
Jason Kelce is not afraid to poke the bear. There has to be at least one question about whether the Travis Kelce-Swift relationship is taking the next step.
Will she do Kylie Kelce's podcast next?
Now that she's done one Kelce podcast, what's another one? Jason's wife, Kylie, is the host of "Not Gonna Lie."
Who's the ideal crew to fill her suite at the game?
Sophie Turner. Sabrina Carpenter. Ryan Reynolds. Ice Spice. Caitlin Clark. Donna Kelce (the Kelce brothers' mother). Brittany Mahomes. Swift has been joined by a number of friends and family at games.
Is she the Chiefs' good-luck charm?
The Chiefs are 19-4 with Swift in attendance at games. But 1-1 in Super Bowls.
What has it been like getting to know the Kelce family?
From the aforementioned Kylie and Jason, to Travis' parents Donna and Ed, gaining an understanding of how she vibes with her (potential) future in-laws would be insightful.
Which artist have you not yet collaborated with that you would like to? Any reveals for the upcoming album?
Let the hunt for "Easter Eggs" begin.

Kareem Hunt fires back on savage Patrick Mahomes gesture
The post Kareem Hunt fires back on savage Patrick Mahomes gesture appeared first on ClutchPoints. During a Kansas City Chiefs practice, QB Patrick Mahomes attempted to dunk over RB Kareem Hunt playfully. It was some light-hearted teasing amid a highly charged practice in preparation for the season. Afterward, Hunt responded to Mahomes on social media in the most playful way imaginable. Essentially, Hunt called out Mahomes' jumping abilities. 'There's a reason we have on football jersey you don't have that in you!' Hunt said. Some jovial banter to contrast the recent skirmish during training camp, Travis Kelce had to break up. Much like Kelce, Hunt is eyeing another shot at the Super Bowl. The Chiefs are looking to redeem themselves after their blowout loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl. Altogether, the Chiefs are still one of the best teams in the NFL. The core group of Mahomes, Kelce, and Hunt remains intact and has much to look forward to. As for Hunt, he rushed for 728 yards and had seven touchdowns on 200 carries in 13 games. He's been in the NFL for eight years. In 2017, Hunt was drafted by the Chiefs and had a brief stint with the Cleveland Browns from 2019 to 2023, before returning to the Chiefs in 2024. The Chiefs' offensive dynamic duo In many ways, Mahomes and Hunt feed well off one another. Upon Hunt's return to the Chiefs, Mahomes saw it as an opportunity for him to get back to form. Furthermore, Mahomes, along with coach Andy Reid, celebrated it as an example of redemption. In 2018, Hunt was cut from the team due to domestic violence. Over time, both have developed a strong friendship, with Hunt even attending Mahomes' wedding to Brittney Matthews in 2022. It's safe to say that their friendship has only gotten stronger since Hunt came back to Kansas City. If all goes well, that bond will translate into on-field success.

What Taylor Swift said at age 14 about becoming a star
Taylor Swift now has " The Life of a Showgirl," but at a young age, she knew her "Love Story" with songwriting would lead her to the music industry -- whether she was a star or not. " Good Morning America" interviewed Swift in 2005 when the now 35-year-old was just 14 years old and trying to make her way in Nashville. When asked what she would do if she didn't become a music star, Swift said she would be a songwriter. "If I'm not a star, then I guess I'm going to be a writer. I know that what I want to do is music, because everyone is like, 'Yeah, you should do what you love,' and this is what I love," Swift said at the time. "This is what I feel I was meant to do, because I think it means something when you can't put a guitar down, you can't stop writing, you can't stop thinking about new ideas for songs." She continued, "I would be a writer for other artists. I'm just totally infatuated with this business and everything about it." Just over one decade later, Swift is a 14-time Grammy winner who last year wrapped up her record-breaking Eras Tour and this week announced her 12th studio album, "The Life of a Showgirl." In the 2005 interview with "GMA," Swift described the first time she held a guitar as being "like magic." "As soon as I learned three chords, I never put it down," she said. When asked what she thought was the scariest thing about moving to Nashville and trying to make a career in music, Swift answered with a fear she never ultimately had to worry about: failure. "The scariest thing I think is failure, because it's so common, and it happens so much. I think I would just be so scared that, you know, nothing would ever happen," Swift said. "But then, then that was what was meant to happen, I think. So I think it's just always going to be OK. That's how I'm seeing it, is just try to get where you want to go, but if it doesn't happen, your life is still -- it's still OK." She added, "But I'm really, really, really, really, really, really trying." Watch the full interview with 14-year-old Swift here.
