Watch: Travis Kelce New Heights revealed with special guests. Kelce is also set to address girlfriend Taylor Swift’s new songs about him on the podcast ….
Travis Kelce has welcomed comedian Andrew Santino onto his New Heights show this week, ahead of an episode where is expected to address the new Taylor Swift songs about him.
Santino shared a video on his Instagram story where he’s sat with Kelce, seemingly discussing how he came up with his ‘Cheeto’ nickname. The comedian shared caption the footage: ‘Behind the scenes with @KillaTrav @NewHeightsShow.’
There is no sign of Kelce’s brother Jason in the clip but he has joined to film previous episodes from his home in Philadelphia.
This week’s podcast will have extra interest for the Swifties as it’s the first Kelce has recorded since his girlfriend released her new album, The Tortured Poets Department.
After getting hold of an early leak of the album last week, fans claimed the song ‘The Alchemy’ was about Kelce with lyrics such as ‘touch down’ and ‘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.’
But Swift left a trick up her sleeve, surprising fans with a second album including the song ‘So High School’ – which fans also believe is about the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl winner.
In that song, Swift sings about: ‘Truth, dare, spin bottles/You know how to ball, I know Aristotle’ and ‘I feel like laughing in the middle of practice/Do that impression you did of your dad again.’
Kelce appeared to acknowledge that song is about him via the New Heights X account, who tweeted out video of the brothers doing an impression of their father Ed the following day.
But the Chiefs star has not spoken directly about the record since it was released.
Swift announced the album’s impending release before the Super Bowl, and Kelce told reporters he had listened to some of the songs.
‘I have heard some of it, yes, and it is unbelievable,’ he said. ‘I can’t wait for her to shake up the world when it finally drops.’
