Taylor Swift cozies up to Travis Kelce and trolls ‘male sports fans’ in ‘New Heights’ preview
Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce released another teaser from Taylor Swift’s highly anticipated “New Heights” episode on Wednesday, showcasing the hilarious dynamic among the famous trio.
In the clip, the pop superstar, 35, lovingly looks at her boyfriend, who is flashing a big smile on his face, as his older brother introduces his girlfriend to their listeners.
Jason, 37, mistakenly starts out, however, by stating Swift is from Nashville, but then immediately corrects himself, saying, “That’s bulls–t. She is from Reading, Pennsylvania,” prompting laughs from the couple.
The former Philadelphia Eagles center then goes on to gush over the Grammy winner’s accomplishments, calling her the “most awarded artist in history” and boasting that her last album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” broke records with 1.76 billion streams.
“Did it?” the “Fortnight” singer asks after hearing the stat. “Alright.”
Continuing in the style of a WWE promo, Jason shouts, “92 percenters, are you ready for it? Making her podcast debut, the most requested guest in the history of shows, Taylor Swift!”
“That intro, Jason,” Swift responds, before joking, “Oh, my God! No, look. His soul has left his body.”
The red-faced father of four replies, “I’m cramping. I’m cramping.”
However, the “You Belong With Me” singer tells him, “No, that was so good. Thank you. Thank you for screaming for, like, 47 seconds for me. That was so nice. That was so sweet.”
At this point, Travis, 35, jumps in to tell his girlfriend, “Tay Tay, welcome to ‘New Heights.’”
“Thank you. Thanks for having me on my favorite podcast,” she sweetly responds.

However, the clip then takes a cheeky turn when Swift pokes fun of the fact that not all 92 percenters, which is the name of the “New Heights” podcast’s fanbase, may be excited to see her on the show.
“As we all know, you guys have a lot of male sports fans that listen to your podcast,” she says. “I think we all know is that if there’s one thing male sports fans want to see in their spaces and on their screens, it’s more of me.”
Since Swift began dating Travis in 2023, her appearance at football games was met with mixed reviews.
While the “Lover” singer brought in $1 billion of publicity to the NFL, as Swifties tried to catch a glimpse of her at games, hardcore football fans also hit back at how much she was shown on their screens.
Swift was also booed earlier this year when she cheered on Travis and his Kansas City Chiefs teammates during their Super Bowl 2025 game against the Eagles at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.
However, there is no doubt way more excitement than upset over the “Shake It Off” singer’s upcoming podcast interview, particularly because she announced her 12th album in another teaser.
In the clip, Swift said her “brand new album” is called “The Life of a Showgirl” and she is expected to share even more details about it when her “New Heights” episode drops on Wednesday at 7 p.m. ET.
