Travis Kelce continues to prove himself as the ultimate supportive boyfriend to Taylor Swift, and her fans are taking notice—again. During a recent episode of his New Heights podcast, Kelce dropped a subtle but telling Swift-related reference, making it clear he knows his girlfriend’s career history far better than the average fan.
Kelce Aces Another ‘Boyfriend Test’ with Taylor Swift Fans
The moment came as actor and comedian Jason Sudeikis joined the podcast as a guest. While chatting with Travis and his brother Jason Kelce, the conversation turned to Swift’s first time hosting Saturday Night Live in 2009, when she also served as the musical guest.
Sudeikis, a longtime SNL cast member, reminisced about working with Swift on her hosting debut, particularly one of the sketches they performed together.
“We did a sketch called ‘Potato Chip,’” Sudeikis recalled. “The very first time we did it was with Taylor when she hosted.”
That’s when Kelce immediately chimed in with a comment that caught Swifties’ attention:
“Nice! A young Taylor, too.”
Sudeikis quickly agreed, repeating, “A young Taylor, yeah.”
For many fans, Kelce’s effortless recognition of the moment was just another sign that he deeply understands and appreciates Swift’s career—a key requirement for any serious Swiftie boyfriend.
The SNL Monologue Song: A Defining Moment for Swift
Swift first hosted Saturday Night Live in November 2009, just a few months after Kanye West’s infamous interruption of her MTV Video Music Awards acceptance speech.
Her SNL monologue, however, turned the moment into comedy gold, as she performed her now-iconic “Monologue Song,” in which she playfully addressed her ex-boyfriends, career, and even West’s interruption.
The song remains legendary among Swift’s fanbase, and Kelce’s quick reaction during the podcast had fans imagining an alternate version with a nod to their own relationship.
One Swiftie on X (formerly Twitter) joked:
“So he knows the monologue song? Now I’m imagining her singing, ‘Now if you wonder if I’m engaged to the football player…’”
Another user declared:
“I’m starting to wonder if there’s any video of Taylor that this man hasn’t found. OG Swiftie.”
Kelce’s Growing Reputation as a True Swiftie
Since going public in September 2023, Swift and Kelce’s relationship has been a high-profile love story, with the pop star frequently appearing at Chiefs games to support him. In turn, Kelce has fully embraced Swift’s world, from attending Eras Tour concerts to referencing her songs and career milestones.
His knowledge of Swift’s SNL debut further solidifies his status as a true Swiftie boyfriend, proving that he’s not just along for the ride—he’s invested in her journey.
With Kelce’s natural enthusiasm and genuine appreciation for Swift’s past work, one thing is certain: he’s passing every test Swifties throw his way—and enjoying every moment of it.
