The Swifties are convinced that 14-time Grammy Award winner Taylor Swift ‘reference’ Travis’ older brother, Jason Kelce, on one track of her new album ‘The Tortured Poets Department‘.
What Prompted Fans to Conclude
It was spot on in track 15, ‘The Alchemy’, when Swift ‘sings’ someone being shirtless, drinking beer, and cheering. There are also references to chasing a championship.
Her fans have since connected the dots to what Swift saw in person during the Kansas City Chiefs AFC Divisional round postseason game against the Buffalo Bills in January, where Jason Kelce and the singer shared NFL VIP box with the rest of the Kelce family.
The Source of Inspiration
The ‘Anti-Hero’ singer was in Buffalo to support Travis Kelce, who scored two touchdowns in the playoff victory, as was Jason, who ripped off his shirt in the freezing cold while drinking multiple beers.
Kelce hopped out of the luxury suite shirtless to celebrate with fans at one point too, and grabbed a female child to introduce her to Swift. According to Jason, this was the first time he and wife Kylie Kelce had met Taylor.
What Does the Lyric Says?
‘Shirts off and your friends lift you up over their heads/Beer sticking to the floor, cheers chanted cause they said/There was no chance/Trying to be the greatest in the league/Where’s the trophy?/He just comes running over to me/Touchdown!’ Swift sings.
Travis’ NFL Career
Travis is a three-time Super Bowl champion, winning all of those championships, in the last five seasons with the Chiefs.
Jasons’ NFL Career
Jason won one Super Bowl, in 2018, and recently lost his championship ring in a chili pit while hosting a live version of the Kelce brothers podcast ‘New Heights’.
Fans of Swift’s believe there are multiple references to Travis Kelce throughout the album in ‘So High School’, as well as other parts of ‘The Alchemy’.
