THE RUNDOWN

• Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce shared a rare kiss during the last seconds of her New Heights appearance.
• The couple spoke about how they first connected, with both sharing romantic anecdotes about their initial meeting.
• At one point, co-host Jason Kelce jokingly asked whether he should leave because he felt like a third wheel.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce revealed quite a bit about their relationship during Swift’s two-hour appearance on New Heights yesterday. But one of their most heartwarming moments didn’t involve words at all. At the end of the podcast, the pair kissed, marking a rare PDA moment. Co-host and third wheel Jason Kelce quipped, “Oh my gosh, all right,” watching them.

The kiss came after the couple discussed how Travis’s previous comments about Swift on New Heights led to their real-life romance. Back in 2023, Travis spoke about his failed attempt to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it during her Kansas City Eras Tour show.

“This kind of felt more like I was in an ’80s John Hughes movie and he was just like standing outside of my window with a boombox, just being like, ‘I want to date you,’” Swift began.

“I was like, if this guy isn’t crazy, which is a big if, this is sort of what I’ve been writing songs about wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager,” she added.

Travis recalled being at the concert, saying, “And I was sitting there at the Eras Tour, listening to every single one of the songs. Like she, I know what she wants me to do. I feel that that’s what she wants me to do.”

Swift said that with his grad gesture, Travis proved he’s “the good kind of crazy. I knew that he wasn’t crazy the first couple of times that we talked. I was just like, he’s truly getting to know me in a way that’s very natural, very pure, very normal. Also, just the way that he could make me laugh so immediately about normal things... Travis is like, he’s just a vibe-booster in everyone’s life that he’s in. He’s like a human exclamation point. He’s like when you take a picture on your phone and you push the enhanced color button, that’s like what you do to everyone’s life. I’ve used so many more exclamation points now, but I think it was just like...you’re so non-judgmental about people. And you were not judgmental about the fact that I knew nothing about the [football] world you were in.”

Travis later spoke about watching Swift onstage. “I give the Eras Tour credit because if I would have never gone to that show and been mesmerized and just been captivated and then left with such a desire to want to meet you, I would have never went on here and told everybody how butthurt I was,” he told his girlfriend. “I had never just been so engulfed in the curiosity of who you were.”

His brother, Jason, praised Swift for teaching Travis the word “engulfed.”

Travis responded, “She makes me so much better.”

Of meeting her, he told Swift, “You see you on the stage and you see how crazy you can get an entire stadium going, and then I get you in a room and it’s like I’ve known you forever. It was just the easiest conversation I ever had, and it was just so much fun that it just—it knocked my socks off.”

“Thank you. I felt the same exact way as you,” Swift admitted.

Travis stressed, “I had never I had never experienced something so mesmerizing on stage and then so real and so beautiful in person.”

“Hey, that’s wonderful,” Swift said.

Jason then asked, “Should I leave?”

His brother replied, “Yeah, I think so. Honestly, at this point, I think everyone should leave.”
