Travis Kelce's thought process behind not bidding on Taylor Swift item 📹 | Travis Kelce talks about the TTPD Guitar that Taylor Swift recently donated: 'I had to get a good look at it, you don't want to buy the same guitar twice.' — Taylor Swift Charts (@TaylorSwiftChar) May 21, 2025 The Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes hosted his annual fundraising event over the weekend, bringing teammates, friends and more together to benefit his 15 and the Mahomies organization. As part of the fundraising process, several items were auctioned off, including an autographed guitar from pop star Taylor Swift. Fellow Chief Travis Kelce, who has been dating the The Tortured Poets Department singer since summer of 2023, was seen in a video clip saying "I just realized I have that already," of the guitar after bidding on it several times. Jason Kelce ribbed his brother about it on this week's episode of their New Heights podcast, accusing his younger sibling of "running up" the auction price on the item. Kelce defended himself, sheepishly saying 'I had to get a good look at it, you don't want to buy the same guitar twice." It's all for a great cause.

Taylor Swift Earns Major Accomplishment on Wednesday
Taylor Swift continues to prove that she can do it with a broken heart. Fans on social media noticed that her latest album, "The Tortured Poets Department," hit a major accomplishment on Wednesday. According to @SwiftyRuza on X, the album has now surpassed 1.1 billion streams on Spotify in 2025 alone. The X user is known in the Swiftie community to post daily album updates, Spotify streams, charts and milestones of the Grammy-winning singer. The album consists of some of Swift's most popular songs, including "Fortnight (featuring Post Malone)" and "I Can Do It With A Broken Heart." From its dramatic and heartwrenching lyrics in "So Long, London" and "The Smallest Man to Ever Live" to songs that capture the butterflies and excitement of having a crush such as "Guilty as Sin?" and "But Daddy I Love Him," her eleventh studio album, co-produced by Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner, has touched the hearts of many Swifties. "The Tortured Poets Department" was announced during the 2024 Grammys after the 35-year-old singer won Best Pop Vocal Album for her 2022 album "Midnights." "TTPD" was then released on April 19, 2024, along with a double-album two hours later titled "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology," which featured 15 more songs. The album is widely rumored to be about her previous relationships with Joe Alwyn, whom she dated from late 2016 to April 2023, and The 1975's lead singer, Matty Healy, to whom she was first linked in 2014 and briefly dated again in the summer of 2023. Some of the songs that are included in the double-album, such as "So High School," are about her current boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce. This news comes out after Swift's big win at Tuesday evening's BMI Pop Awards. Four out of the seven songs that earned Most Performed Songs of the Year were a part of "TTPD," including "Down Bad,' 'Fortnight (featuring Post Malone),' "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me?" and "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart." Other songs that won Most Performed Songs of the Year include "Don't Blame Me," from her 2017 album "Reputation," as well as "Is It Over Now? (Taylor's Version) (From the Vault)" and "Now That We Don't Talk (Taylor's Version) (From the Vault)," both from the re-recorded version of her 2014 album "1989." Swift also took home BMI's Songwriter of the Year award.

IC Markets Start Now Undo Taylor Swift's 'The Tortured Poets Department' makes a triumphant return to No. 1 Even though Taylor Swift wasn't physically present at the event, her influence was still felt in the entertainment world. On Friday, Swift's team revealed some thrilling news: her album, The Tortured Poets Department, first released on April 19, 2024, would be getting a new signed CD variant to celebrate its first anniversary. The excitement surrounding the re-release was palpable. According to Billboard, the album skyrocketed up the charts, climbing an astonishing 23 spots to reclaim the No. 1 position on the UK Album Chart . 'TTPD' now holds the impressive record of spending 11 non-consecutive weeks at the top, the longest reign for any of Swift's albums in the UK.
