Travis Kelce Furiously Defends Taylor After Kanye Publicly Slams Her

Travis Kelce finally broke his silence about connecting with Taylor Swift, days after the “Cruel Summer” singer was seen cheering for the Kansas City Chiefs star and his team from a luxury box at Arrowhead Stadium over the weekend.

In the latest episode of the “New Heights” podcast, Travis and brother Jason Kelce addressed the unexpected relationship that has sent Swifties and social media into a craze. “How does it feel that Taylor has finally put you on the map?,” Jason asked his co-host.

“Shout out to Taylor for pulling up, that was pretty ballsy,” Travis told his brother. “I just thought it was awesome how everybody in the suite had nothing but great things to say about her, the friends and family.”

He added: “She looked amazing. Everybody was talking about her in a great light and on top of that, the day went perfect for Chiefs fans, of course.”

On Sunday, Swift, 33, was seen in the stadium’s Travis Kelce suite wearing Chiefs colors and cheering alongside the football star’s mother, Donna Kelce. Swift’s appearance at the game comes weeks after reports that the pair have been “quietly hanging out.”

 In July, Travis spoke about his unsuccessful attempts to connect with the singer.

After Sunday’s game, the pair were seen driving off alone in a convertible — Kelce’s “getaway car,” he said on Wednesday’s podcast. According to ET, Kelce rented out a trendy Kansas City restaurant for Swift and his team to celebrate the Chiefs’ victory over the Chicago Bears.
