Travis Kelce just went through a fleet of interviews to promote his music festival, Kelce Jam, and each of his musings on Taylor Swift is cuter than the next.
And due to the footballer being completely open and not holding back at all, fans have—inevitably ¯\_(ツ)_/¯—compared his quotes to those of Taylor's ex Joe Alwyn, who was extremely private about their prior relationship.. .namely, Travis and Joe's respective answers to being asked about Taylor's music.
Case in point? When the pro athlete was asked about listening to Taylor by Entertainment Tonight, he said, "That's my everyday playlist, not just my game day." Meanwhile, when Joe was asked about his favorite Taylor song by GQ, he simply responded, "I'm just not even going to go into that side of the world."
While Joe is certainly entitled to his privacy, it's worth pointing out that when he and Taylor broke up, a source said that the actor "has struggled with Taylor's level of fame and the attention from the public. The differences in their personalities have also become harder to ignore after years together. They've grown apart."
At the time, an Entertainment Tonight insider also noted that, "It was more of Taylor's decision to break up, but both of them realized that they weren't completely right for one another. They had been together for such a long time and were spending so much time together, but their personalities were just too different. Joe is more introverted, shy, and quiet."
Point is, Joe is just a shy introverted guy and Travis isn't! To each their own, but we definitely love to see how supportive Travis is of Tay.
Del Rey, who attended the 2024 Super Bowl with Swift, is serving as one of the headliners for the music festival, which will take place April 12 to 14 and April 19 to 21 at the the Empire Polo Club in Indio, Calif. Bleachers will take one of the stages on April 13 and April 20.
Swift and Kelce, both 34, will be “renting a house in the area” for one of the two festival weekends, the source added.
Reps for Swift and Kelce didn’t immediately return Page Six’s requests for comment.
The famed athlete, who is currently in the offseason from the NFL, is expected to stay with the newly minted billionaire until late April, the insider added, with a second source noting that Kelce is shooting a commercial in Los Angeles the weekend of April 12.
“Taylor is very excited about the opportunities Travis is getting and fully supports him,” a third source told Us Weekly. “[But] she wants him to be conscious of his schedule. The only issue is making sure they can see each other.”
The “Out of the Woods” singer resumes her Eras Tour in May, and Kelce already confirmed that he will fly to Europe to watch her perform.
“Oh, you know I gotta go support,” he told “Entertainment Tonight” when asked whether he would be “packing [his] bags” soon, adding that he had to pay back the favor after she attended numerous football games.
We are both very career-driven. I think we both love what we do, and any chance that I can show my support to her — knowing that she has shown me all the support in the world throughout the season — it’s just been an amazing experience getting to know Tay,” he added.
Unfortunately, Swift will not be able to attend Kelce’s music festival, Kelce Jam, in May because she will be performing in Sweden.
The couple started dating last summer
Travis Kelce Shares Biggest Lesson He's Learned from Taylor Swift
Travis Kelce is taking away some important lessons from girlfriend Taylor Swift when it comes to music, namely, "Don't try and be Taylor."
As the Kansas City Chiefs player gets ready to host his second annual Kelce Jam music festival, he's sharing some of the tips and tricks he's learned from his Grammy-winning girlfriend.
"Don't try and be Taylor, that's what I learned," Travis told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published April 2. "Yeah, she's on a whole other stratosphere. She's the best at what she does for a reason."
The three-time Super Bowl winner continued his praise of the "Cruel Summer" singer, noting that she's "so articulate" in everything she does. "That's the beauty of it," he noted. "I'd be silly if I ever tried to take anything from what she does, other than just enjoy the people that show up."
And with artists like Lil Wayne, Diplo and 2 Chainz taking the stage at Azura Amphitheater in Kansas City May 18, the athlete is more than ready to enjoy the show.
"It was such a blast that I had to do it again this year. I'm so excited," he told The Hollywood Reporter. "It's going to be so much, fun and I cannot wait to get back out and celebrate with KC, man."
While Travis hasn't thrown a massive concert since the inaugural Kelce Jam last year, he has gotten a front-row seat at one of the biggest stadium events in the world. After all, since he and Taylor took their romance public in September, he's traveled all over the world—including Argentina, Singapore and Australia—to play cheer captain during her four-hour-long Eras Tour performances.
And for Travis, seeing her connect with fans across the globe will never go out of style.
"She really relates to the people she's performing in front of," he explained, "and so I'll take that."

July 2023: So, Make the Friendship Bracelets
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's love story began in July 2023, when the singer's Eras Tour made a stop at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
As a huge Swiftie, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end caught the show with hopes of giving Taylor a friendship bracelet with his number on it. However, she failed to complete the pass due to her pre-show rituals.
"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings," Travis shared on the July 26 episode of his New Heights podcast. "So, I was a little butt-hurt I didn't get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her."
Summer 2023: This Is Him Trying
After publicly recounting his fumble—a move Taylor would later describe as "metal as hell"—Travis decided to shoot his shot and invite the Grammy winner to watch the Chiefs play at Arrowhead Stadium.
"I threw it out there, I threw the ball in her court," he shared on The Pat McAfee Show. "I told her, you know, 'I've seen you rock the stage in Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage in Arrowhead and see which one's a little more lit.' So, we'll see what happens in the near future."
August 2023: Enchanted to Meet You
Travis was rocking a mustache—which he debuted in August during training camp—when he was first introduced to Taylor.
As he later noted of the era, "That 'stache and the 87 jersey was pretty iconic there for a little bit, and I had it when I met Taylor for the first time."
September 2023: Cheer Captain
Accepting Travis' invite, Taylor joined the athlete's mom Donna Kelce at Arrowhead Stadium to watch him and the Chiefs take on the Chicago Bears. After the game, Taylor and Travis were seen packing PDA at a local bar.
Though folklore had it that it was the couple's first in-person meeting, the "Karma" singer later clarified the two had spent a "significant amount of time" getting to know each other beforehand.
As Taylor noted, "We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date."
