Travis Kelce fumbled while attempting to get Taylor Swift’s phone number
Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs’ player, made a bold move to connect with Taylor Swift but unfortunately didn’t succeed. During his podcast “New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce,” which he co-hosts with his brother, he revealed that he tried to slip his phone number to the superstar singer while attending one of her concerts.
Kelce expressed his disappointment that Taylor doesn’t engage in conversations before or after her shows to preserve her voice for the extensive number of songs she performs. He jokingly mentioned feeling a little “butthurt” because he couldn’t give her one of the bracelets he had specially made for her.
Yes, you heard it right – the tight end crafted a unique bracelet for Taylor Swift. Seems like he was inspired by her hit song, “Look What You Made Me Do!”
During Taylor’s “Eras Tour,” she has been giving out friendship bracelets, and Kelce wanted to give her one with his number on it. When asked if he meant his jersey number or phone number, he playfully implied it was the latter.
Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift share the number 33 as their ages, adding a fun coincidence to the story.
Despite his efforts, Kelce admitted that Swift didn’t interact with anyone, including him, and he took it personally. His brother, who plays for the Philadelphia Eagles, even joked that maybe Taylor held some “bad blood” due to the Kansas City Chiefs’ victory over the Eagles’ team in the Super Bowl.
As for Swift’s response to Kelce’s gesture, we’ll have to wait and see. CNN reached out to her representative for any comments or reactions to this interesting tale.
