Taylor Swift admits she thought boyfriend Travis Kelce was ‘crazy’ for asking her on a date so publicly

by

Initially, Taylor Swift viewed Travis Kelce as somewhat eccentric when he publicly proposed to her.

The athlete, aged 35, shared enthusiastically during his podcast that he went to one of Taylor’s concerts in July 2023 but was unable to meet her, and he confessed he had even taken a friendship bracelet along with the intention of giving it to her.

Now, for the first time ever, Taylor is featured as a guest on Travis’s New Heights podcast. In this debut appearance, she discusses her initial reactions to his noticeable public admiration.

She likened Travis to a character from a John Hughes film, humorously suggesting that he was serenading her from outside her window with a boombox, declaring his affection: “I’d love to take you out! Fancy a date? I crafted a friendship bracelet just for you. How about going on a date with me?

Taylor commented: “If this man isn’t insane (and that’s a big ‘if’), then this is basically the kind of situation I’ve been longing for in my songs since I was a teen.

In simpler terms, when Jason, Travis’s brother, questioned the successful musician about a man’s sanity, she humorously responded, “Jason, he’s indeed eccentric, but in a positive way.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I must say, the charm was undeniably captivating, with an abundance of public displays of affection (PDA) that made hearts flutter. Witnessing Travis planting a kiss on Taylor’s hand and exclaiming how he felt ‘the most fortunate man in the world,’ added to the romantic ambiance. The emotional high point came later when Taylor, while discussing her quest for master ownership, was moved to tears, further underscoring her passion and determination.

The Grammy-winning artist commended Travis for his knack at making people laugh instantly about ordinary matters. He brightens up everyone’s life wherever he is, serving as an ever-present source of positivity. Essentially, he functions like an emphatic punctuation mark in human conversation.

Additionally, she praised the athlete for being incredibly accepting and unbiased towards individuals, and mentioned that his indifference towards her lack of football knowledge during their encounter was noteworthy.

Jason, during our first date, I asked him about his experience watching the Chiefs versus Eagles in the Super Bowl back in February 2023, and it turned out that his brother was just five feet away from him on the field, which he vividly recalled looking across to,” she revealed.

‘It didn’t happen’ Jason chimed in, as both Travis and Taylor laughed.

‘He didn’t give me a glance, which made me realize how ridiculous my question must have been. It was clear that he was playing offensive football, with his brother also on offense, and he was only out there when the defense was on the field.’

‘I thought everyone was out there at the same time,’ Taylor shared.

‘Well that’s how you played on the playground growing up, so I understand…’ Travis said.

Taylor remarked, “It seemed as though Jared Goff and Josh Allen were about to face off, ready to start a match, and I wondered who would emerge victorious.

Previously, I wasn’t familiar with terms such as first down, the chains, or a tight end in football.

Later on, Travis expressed his gratitude towards her by saying, “I am eternally appreciative for your full commitment to the world of football.

Taylor exclaimed: ‘I fell head over heels for it, I couldn’t help but become completely captivated by it. In fact, I became so passionate about it that I acted as if I were sprinting through my home shouting “WE DRAFTED XAVIER WORTHY!” and my friends found my behavior puzzling and asked, “What has taken you over? What do you mean?”‘

Travis then revealed she was the first person who told him the news. 

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I found myself questioning the accuracy of certain information – my initial reaction was something along the lines of, “Could this be true? I need to fact-check this.” So, off I went to verify the details and ensure that I’m providing you with the most accurate information possible.

At some point, Travis expressed admiration when Taylor employed the term ‘fortuitous’. He particularly enjoys it when she utilizes elaborate vocabulary.

Taylor, with affection, turned to him and stated, “I assume you understand the implication of those words,” followed by a tender gesture as she lifted his chin and said, “You truly are very attractive.

At another point Travis gushed that Taylor makes him ‘so much better.’ 

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but express my heartfelt thanks for the magical experience that was the Eras tour. It was nothing short of mesmerizing and captivating, leaving me longing to meet the enchantress herself – none other than Taylor. The tour sparked an unquenchable desire within me, a yearning that I left the event with, fueled by the hope of one day crossing paths with my idol.

“Seeing you on stage, igniting an entire crowd, is amazing, but having you in a private setting feels as though we’ve been friends for ages, and our chat was effortless and enjoyable to the point that I feel like my socks got knocked off.

‘Thank you, I’ve felt the same exact way about you,’ Taylor responded.
