Taylor Swift is never afraid to laugh at herself — and her latest podcast appearance proves it. The superstar joined her boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother Jason on New Heights, where she revealed the hilariously “insane” question she asked on their very first date.
Fans are stunned, amused, and charmed by her honesty about learning football.
Taylor’s “Insane” First-Date Question With Travis
On the Aug. 13 episode of New Heights, Taylor admitted she had almost no clue about NFL culture when she first met Travis in 2023. During their first date, she boldly asked what it was like when he played against his brother Jason in the Super Bowl — not realizing they weren’t even on the field at the same time.
Laughing at herself, Taylor said: “I legitimately thought everyone was on the field together, like quarterbacks facing off one-on-one.” Travis patiently explained the reality, adding that he found her curiosity endearing, not embarrassing.
From Football Confusion to Obsession
Taylor confessed she didn’t know what a first down, chains, or even a tight end was when she started dating Travis. But now, she’s fully embraced the sport. She proudly shared that she was “screaming through the halls” after the Kansas City Chiefs drafted Xavier Worthy in 2024, joking her friends barely recognized her transformation into a full-on football fan.
The podcast also gave Swifties another reason to celebrate — Taylor officially announced her new album, The Life of a Showgirl, out Oct. 3, produced with Max Martin and Shellback. Between new music and her growing football obsession, fans say Taylor is living her most unexpected era yet.
