Jason Kelce Gets Emotional Hearing Taylor Swift Describe Travis Kelce
Don't blame Jason Kelce for being moved by his brother Travis Kelce's epic romance.
As Taylor Swift shared rare insight into her relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs star and the whole Kelce family on the special Aug. 13 episode of New Heights, her heartfelt words about the joy Travis brings to those around him made his elder brother visibly emotional.
Jason, 37, grinned and then looked up teary-eyed as Taylor said of Travis, "He's like a human exclamation point."
The 'Cruel Summer' singer went on to explain that being around Travis is like "when you take a picture on your phone and you push the enhance color button," prompting Jason to squint and raise his eyebrows as he nodded his head in agreement.
The heartfelt moment didn't end there. "That's what you do to everyone's life,' Taylor continued, as a teary Jason continued to listen with a smile. "I use so many more exclamation points now."
Fans were quick to notice the meaningful moment between Taylor and her unofficial brother-in-law.

As one user on X put it, "jason's reaction to taylor calling travis a 'human exclamation point' and him being an 'enhance color button' is the sweetest thing in the world,' one person wrote on X. 'you can tell how much it means to him that travis found someone that see's him and loves him the way taylor does."
Another added, "He almost started crying he's so happy someone actually wholeheartedly loves and understands his brother."
During the two-hour conversation between Taylor and the Kelce brothers, they reminisced about the now-iconic beginning of Taylor and Travis' romance and how she got to know his family. In fact, she revealed, "I'll always remember meeting you for the first time, Jason."
The "Karma" singer then shared the hilarious first impression Jason and his wife Kylie Kece made on her while cheering on Travis at the AFC Championship game in January 2024 during the Chiefs game against the Buffalo Bills.
"I did know that one of the first things I saw was you say to Kylie, 'I was just shotgunning beers with the Bills Mafia, and I really want to go through one of the fire tables, I want to jump through it, I want to jump onto the flaming table,'" Taylor recalled. "And she goes, 'OK. Can we not do that right now?"
She continued, "Since then, I've heard her say that exact thing to your 4-year-old."
As Jason jokingly admitted, "That's a common phrase."
Ultimately, Taylor shared that the couple—who share four daughters—was exactly what she expected.
"So, I meet you, you're exactly as I thought you would be, Kylie is exactly as I thought she would be just like the realest, the smartest, the coolest," she emphasized. "You're fantastic, obviously, you know that.'
Despite the chaos of their first encounter, she shared that she's so happy to be a part of the Kelce family—and Chiefs Kingdom. She added, "I love this new world that Travis has shown me."

Series of concerts at San Francisco's Golden Gate Park draws music lovers despite traffic, noise complaints
While some neighbors in the Richmond District have complained about traffic and noise caused by concerts, it's a different story for those attending the events. On Friday night, a series of August concerts wrapped up with headliner Zach Bryan performing at Golden Gate Park. For three weekends in a row, people have been piling into Golden Gate Park to see their favorite music artists. This was Jenn Russo's second time coming to the venue this month and had a plan to avoid any parking issues. "It wasn't too bad," said Russo. "I was here a couple of weeks ago for Dead and Company, and we took the shuttle in and out and they didn't have that shuttle going north this time. So, I enlisted my husband to drop us off. He's going to go to the movies, go have dinner and pick us up." While Russo and her daughters made the drive from Healdsburg, two other people who are friends traveled a little farther to see Zach Bryan. It took them several hours to get there from Madera in the Central Valley. "It was great," said Hudson Groh and Sam McPherson. "It was easy. We always love coming to the Bay. We love where we come from, though. We love living there with all the space and stuff. A lot different than the city that we are at right now, but making the trip is always fun. A road trip with your friends. Oh yeah." There was a lot of traffic in the outer Richmond area the last few weekends, and one man named Nicholas, who only wanted to go by his first name, decided to cash in on the extra foot traffic. He set up a snack stand with his brothers. Business was slow before the show, but he's banking on selling out after the event. "I think we'll get the most money in the way back when there's a lot of people," said Nicholas. "They are also really hungry then and thirsty." While some neighbors have become annoyed with three straight weekends of music and visitors, some locals said they felt that overall, it's good for the city. "I think it's amazing," said Yvette Corkrean from San Francisco. "I mean one, we want to bring people back to the city in a positive way. Last week's event was a little bit more for the youngsters and then this week it's for us older generation, but for everybody." Those we talked to say they enjoyed this venue and like that more and more concerts have returned to Golden Gate Park. Russo, though, feels accessibility may be the one thing to keep it from becoming the "go-to" place for live music. "I like it here," said Russo. "It's just the whole parking thing is a bit of an issue if you don't live here and know the MUNI and the buses and all the trains and stuff. So, that's the part that's a little challenging for us."
