00:00 Thanks, Tay. I appreciate you on the Chiefs page, Porden.
00:05 - Yeah, you heard that right.
00:07 Travis Kelsey calling his leading lady, Taylor Swift, Tay.
00:11 I love it.
00:12 The Kansas City Chiefs tight end dropped the sweet nickname
00:15 on the latest episode of his podcast, New Heights,
00:18 which he co-hosts with his brother,
00:20 Philadelphia Eagle Center, Jason Kelsey.
00:23 After his team shared a pic of Trav on Instagram Monday,
00:26 acknowledging his success as the fastest tight end
00:29 to do 11,000 receiving yards
00:32 and the only player in franchise history to do it.
00:35 - I don't understand how you can not fangirl about that.
00:39 - Taylor fangirled all right,
00:40 throwing a double tap on the celebratory post.
00:43 - Not gonna seem ambivalent about that at all.
00:45 - So Travis gave a shout out to his girl for the love.
00:49 - Taylor Swift, that's right.
00:51 She liked an Instagram announcement from the Chiefs
00:54 about you breaking this record.
00:56 - Thanks Tay, I appreciate you on the Chiefs page, Porden.
01:01 - Gotta love the support.
01:03 Has she always been a fan of tight end receiving yards?
01:05 Is she a big tight end receiving yards?
01:08 - I'm not sure that's a good question.
01:09 Maybe, I don't know.
01:10 I don't know if she's a fan of tight ends or not.
01:12 (laughing)
01:13 I have to ask her.
01:14 - Later, Jason read a post from X
01:16 where a fan shared that Travis had given his glove
01:19 to her young daughter after his most recent game.
01:22 The post ended with the hashtag Swifties.
01:25 - It's crazy what everybody's throwing out there, man.
01:27 - I had no idea she was a Swifty.
01:29 I might've, you know, assumed that she was a Swifty.
01:33 - I mean, let's be honest,
01:35 who's not a Swifty at this point?
01:36 - But it was cool, you know,
01:38 after the game I always try and, you know,
01:39 give a souvenir to a little one.
01:41 And those two little ones, the young boy next to her,
01:46 they were just screaming their tails off
01:48 trying to get my attention.
01:50 - The Swifties have been showing their support for Travis
01:52 at his recent games,
01:54 holding up clever signs from the stands,
01:56 like this one, reading "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs."
02:00 A direct reference to this moment
02:02 when Taylor changed the lyrics to her song "Karma"
02:05 at her show in Buenos Aires, Argentina,
02:07 when Travis was in the crowd.
02:10 - Karma is the guy on the Chiefs.
02:11 ♪ Come and take control ♪
02:14 - And the brothers credit Taylor's fans
02:15 for helping their holiday song, "Fairy Tale of Philadelphia"
02:19 go all the way to number one on the Apple Music charts.
02:22 ♪ The sound of the silver ages choir ♪
02:25 ♪ All singing Galway Bay ♪
02:28 ♪ And the bells were ringing out for Christmas Day ♪
02:33 - We owe a big thanks to one group in particular,
02:36 and that's the Swifties, 'cause the Swifties came out.
02:38 It's a powerful group.
02:39 It's a powerful group of people.
02:40 - As for the lovebirds, on Sunday,
02:42 while Travis's team scored a victory
02:44 against the Las Vegas Raiders,
02:46 Taylor was performing her final
02:48 Heiress Tour show of 2023 in Brazil.
02:51 And the next day, her private plane
02:53 touched down in Kansas City, Missouri,
02:55 for a visit with Travis.
02:57 - I don't know how everybody's so invested in my
02:59 off-the-field love life.
03:01 - Taylor, who will celebrate her 34th birthday
03:03 on December 13th, is set to enjoy a two-month hiatus
03:07 before kicking off the next leg of her tour
03:09 on February 7th in Tokyo.
03:11 A source recently told ET that the two are planning
03:14 to spend more time together in December and January,
03:18 which makes sense, because another source
03:20 previously told ET, "They are very into each other,
03:23 and it is clear to everyone around them.
03:26 They are both excited and giddy
03:28 that they can't even hide it and don't want to."
