00:00 Now, when you picked out this outfit, did you have a feeling Reputation Taylor's version
00:04 might be coming today?
00:05 Oh my god, I knew you were going to ask.
00:07 Yes, no, I didn't have a feeling, but when she changed that profile picture to black
00:11 and white this morning, I think my world stopped.
00:13 I was pacing around my apartment nervously.
00:16 It made me feel like I was about to announce something today.
00:19 Like I got nervous, not to make it about me, but this is what was going through my head.
00:24 And if she does or if she doesn't, either way, I'm so happy for her and I'm so happy
00:27 for all the nominees that are here.
00:28 It's such an exciting night.
00:29 Are you a Rep stan or what's your favorite Taylor album?
00:33 I'm a big, big Rep stan.
00:35 I do frequently feel like I'm in my Speak Now era, but Reputation really defines so
00:42 much of my life.
00:44 But I have been loving the 1989 era too.
00:46 There are so many to pick.
00:47 How do you pick?
00:48 You can't.
00:49 And I mean, 1989 Taylor's version is so good.
00:52 So good.
00:53 And I got the pleasure of being able to hear her sing "Is It Over Now" with the Out of
00:57 the Woods Bridge in Argentina.
00:58 While Travis Kelce was there, I nearly passed out.
01:00 Wait, I was thinking you went to Brazil, but no, you went to Argentina.
01:04 That's right.
01:05 Argentina.
01:06 I'm the Chiefs.
01:07 So, Super Bowl, I mean, there's so much Swifty stuff happening right now, but Super Bowl
01:10 next weekend, are you rooting for the Chiefs, the 49ers, or just Taylor Swift?
01:15 I got to be rooting for the Chiefs.
01:17 As much as I can root for a football team that I don't know much about, I'm going to
01:21 be rooting for them.
01:22 I've never cared as much about football as I do right now.
01:24 Yeah, I will say.
01:26 I've been to a few football games in my life, and every time I do go, I find myself starting
01:30 to care more than I even knew how to before.
01:33 So I feel like when I watch the game, I'm going to start caring a lot.
01:36 Yeah.
01:37 Now, of course, we're here at the Grammys.
01:38 So much Taylor news.
01:40 But aside from Taylor, who's somebody you'd love to see here tonight?
01:43 Olivia, Billie, SZA.
01:46 So there's so many incredible artists.
01:48 I feel like the lineup is stacked this year, as it is every year.
01:51 You know, we had my daddy, Harry, winning album of the year last year.
01:55 So it's just always going to be an exciting time.
01:58 And I'm so grateful to literally be even on this carpet right now.
02:03 I know you were here last year.
02:04 Was that your first Grammys?
02:05 So now you're just an old pro.
02:08 It never feels like it, though.
02:09 I feel like I'm going to have to go to 20 of these before I feel like this is normal.
02:13 And even then, who knows?
02:14 But I'm just so excited to be here again.
02:16 The energy is always so heightened and exciting.
02:19 So yeah.
02:20 And with the Ares tour, an amazing tour.
02:22 I know you went multiple times, as did I.
02:23 We just had to be there.
02:24 We had to be there.
02:25 But who's another artist that you would love to see go on an Ares tour or a Greatest Hits
02:29 tour?
02:30 I want Miley Cyrus to do a Hannah Montana tour.
02:34 And an Ares tour, but Hannah Montana specifically.
02:36 I feel like if she did that, she could sell out stadiums multiple times.
02:42 I want all the Ares.
02:43 I want Hannah, Bangers, Breakout.
02:46 I want everything.
02:47 There's so many.
02:48 Also, Justin Bieber Ares tour.
02:49 Give it to us.
02:50 Yeah.
