On Saturday night (Nov. 11) at the Buenos Aires, Argentina Eras Tour show, Taylor Swift made a lyric change heard 'round the world. During her performance of "Karma," Swift changed the original lyric "Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me" to "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me," to shout out her boyfriend, Kansas City Chief's tight end Travis Kelce.
Kelce gushed over the moment in the latest episode of his podcast New Heights, which he co-hosts with his brother, center for the Philadelphia Eagles, Jason Kelce.
"Yeah, no I had no clue [she would do that] ... well, I might have had a little bit of a clue, but definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth, it still shocked me," Travis Kelce said of the lyric change. "I was like, 'Oh... she really just said that.'"
Jason Kelce also teased his younger brother for flubbing a moment with Swift's dad, Scott Swift. In a video captured by a fan, Kelce is seen missing a "high five" from Mr. Swift — obviously too enraptured by his girlfriend singing about him. (Who can blame him?)
"Mr. Swift, I apologize, big guy," Kelce said. "I never miss a high five. Big high five guy. It's the most electric thing you can do at an event."
Jason Kelce also made note of the fact that the Swift patriarch was wearing a Kansas City Chiefs lanyard around his neck.
"Got 'em over here to the good side," Travis Kelce joked.
The elder Kelce, who's spent his entire career in an Eagles uniform wasn't having it. After all, the "Cruel Summer" singer was born and raised just and our outside of Philadelphia and Swift and her family are longtime fans of the Philadelphia Eagles.
"You're gonna let this man's devilishly good looks and relationship with your daughter sway you from a lifetime of fandom, Scott?" Jason Kelce quipped.
But Travis conceded that Scott Swift's Chiefs merch may have been a simple act of goodwill toward his daughters new man.
"I might have persuaded him the night before at dinner when I met him," he said. "Maybe, who knows?"
Earlier in the conversation, the brothers discussed Swift's Friday show, which was postponed due to bad weather.
"She wasn't too happy about it - she kind of prides herself on performing through weather and rain and things like that," Travis shared. "But when it's unsafe to her, her crew and everybody in the stadium, you have to do what you have to do."
