"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to harsh the vibe. It's the news America needs."

Hunt also called Swift and her partner "America's royal couple," adding that everyone should be celebrating Travis Kelce winning Taylor Swift's hand.

Taylor Swift recently appeared on Travis and Jason Kelce's New Heights podcast on August 13, 2025, where she made headlines by announcing her upcoming album, The Life of a Showgirl. She also reflected on how the podcast helped her get a boyfriend, accusing her fiancé of using the platform as a "personal dating app" to connect with her.

For the unversed, Travis Kelce attended Taylor's Eras Tour in July 2023 at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. The NFL player admitted he thought he would meet Swift backstage since he knew the woman who operated the elevator during the tour. However, his attempt to meet Taylor failed, and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end was left with the friendship bracelets he made.

On July 26, 2023, Travis Kelce expressed his disappointment at not having met Taylor on the New Heights podcast, saying he wanted to give her a friendship bracelet with his number on it.

During her appearance on the podcast, Taylor Swift addressed the viral clip and compared it to feeling as if Travis was standing outside her apartment with a boom box, saying, "I want to go on a date with you." Shortly after Travis's move on Taylor via the podcast, the singer's friends and family started persuading her to accept the NFL star's offer.

"My relatives, my cousins, were like, 'Please, please, please, he's amazing'. There were friends that were like, 'He's actually an amazing guy, he's so great'. There was a lot of people whispering in my ear about you," Taylor mentioned.

Swift said that her relationship with Travis Kelce was what she had been "writing songs about, wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager."

"It was wild, but it worked... He's the good kind of crazy," she said.

In other news, Taylor Swift is releasing her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, on October 3, 2025.
