Top 7 Things We Learned About Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce From Their Podcast Debut
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce might just be the most-watched couple in pop culture right now. She is a global music icon. He is a Super Bowl-winning NFL star. Together? They are living proof that a pop star-football player romance is just as good in real life as it is in a rom-com. The two recently sat down on New Heights, the podcast Travis co-hosts with his brother Jason Kelce, and gave fans an unfiltered peek into their relationship, careers and quirks. It was not just about cute couple moments – they covered everything from football vs. pop stardom to sourdough bread obsessions. This was the first time, we saw the couple in a podcast together. Here are the top things we learned about Taylor and Travis from their chat. 1. A Podcast Confession Started It All Before they were 'Taylor and Travis,' there was just one guy on a mic shooting his shot. Two years ago, Travis used his own podcast to say he wanted to date Taylor after failing to get her attention at her Eras Tour show in Kansas City. View this post on Instagram A post shared by New Heights (@newheightshow) 'It was such a wild, romantic gesture to just be like, 'I want to date you',' Taylor said, admitting the directness intrigued her. She joked that Travis 'never did any proper logistical planning' to meet her. ' Just because he knows the elevator lady, he thought he could talk to her about just getting down to my [Taylor's] dressing room. That's how it works in 1973!,' Taylor says. 2. They've Learned To Laugh Off The Hype Being in one of the most talked-about relationships in the world comes with a constant stream of theories and opinions. 'I don't see a lot of things,' Taylor Swift said. 'I've been in the music industry for 20 years. It's pretty hard to hurt my feelings at this point.' Travis Kelce said he has picked up a thing or two from her about handling the noise. 'There's still some wacko theories from the beginning that I was like, 'Oh no, how is she handling this?' The last thing I wanted to do was screw this up,' he says. Taylor's trick? 'It's at a point where … my name can be in the actual headline and it can still be none of my business,' Taylor says. 3. Pop Stardom Is Basically Pro Sports (Minus The Tackles) Turns out playing in the NFL and performing a three-hour stadium show are not that different. Taylor Swift preps for Tours by running on a treadmill while singing her entire set list. 'I'm not getting hit by huge 300-pounders, but the heels …' she said. Travis Kelce noticed the overlap immediately. 'When I saw the recovery station in the hotel room after [the Eras show], with the toe-spacers … I'm telling you, dude, the similarities were crazy. I was like, 'Oh my gosh. She does more than I do," Travis says. 4. Taylor Took The Most Personal Approach To Buying Back Her Masters Taylor Swift's fight to regain control of her first six albums is well known. What is new? The way she finally got them back. When the time came to negotiate with Shamrock Capital, she did not send a team of lawyers. 'Rather than send lawyers or management in a big crew, I sent my mom and my brother,' she said, tearing up. 'They told them what this meant for me, they told them the whole story of all the times we've tried to buy it, all the times it's fallen through.' When her mom told her the deal was done, Taylor 'just, like, very dramatically hit the floor … I started bawling my eyes out.' She ran to Travis, who was playing video games, and collapsed crying in his arms. 5. Easter Eggs Are For The Music, Not The Gossip Swifties live for Easter eggs, and Taylor Swift knows it. But she set the record straight on what they're about. 'I'm never gonna plant an Easter egg that ties back to my personal life. It's always gonna be towards music,' she said. She loves hiding clues in speeches, videos, and social posts - like her NYU commencement speech that was packed with hints about Midnights. 6. Sourdough Is Their Love Language Forget fancy date nights -Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are in their 'bread era'. 'I'm really talking about bread 60% of the time. It's become a huge, huge factor … I'm on sourdough blogs! There's a whole community of us!' Taylor said. Travis joked that plenty of people hope she's commenting on their baking posts. Taylor's answer? 'Oh, I'm on your blog. Girl, I'm on your blog.' 7. Travis Has A Soft Spot For Otters In between bread talk, Travis shows Taylor otter videos. He is not just casually into them – he has a whole rescue fantasy. 'I want a wild otter so bad,' he said. 'I just want to find these little creatures and be their friend.' Taylor explained, 'He wants one specifically whose life he saved and who knows he saved its life.' Travis has even imagined the long-term friendship, 'And then I bring him anchovies every couple months.' Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce might be living very different professional lives, but their conversation on the podcast showed how well they match in energy, humour and shared passions. From epic career wins to quiet bread-baking nights, they have got their own rhythm – and they seem pretty happy dancing to it.
