Travis Kelce once again had fans buzzing with his latest comments about Taylor Swift during the newest episode of the “New Heights” podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother, Jason Kelce.
This time, it was “Ted Lasso” star Jason Sudeikis who brought up Swift while reminiscing about his time on “Saturday Night Live”.

Sudeikis shared a story about a sketch he had worked on during Swift’s SNL hosting stint. “A few of my personal favorites that I was involved in, like, [Will] Forte and I had a lot of fun things. We did a sketch called ‘Potato Chip’,” Sudeikis recalled.
“That very first time we did was with Taylor [Swift] when she hosted. But it didn’t make it.” Kelce responded with enthusiasm: “Nice! A young Taylor too.” Sudeikis confirmed, “A young Taylor, yeah.”
He went on to explain that the sketch was eventually performed with Blake Lively instead. “We ended up doing it with Blake Lively.
So he knows the monologue song now I’m imagining her singing “now if you wonder if I’m engaged to the football player”

She ended up getting it over the hump for us. And they played it so differently, which is one of those neat things. And it was, like, it’s the silliest sketch in the world. It’s worth looking up.” Kelce’s casual reference to “young Taylor” immediately caught the attention of Swift’s fans, who took to social media to react.
“So he knows the monologue song,” one fan speculated, referencing Swift’s well-known SNL monologue from that episode. “Now I’m imagining her singing, ‘Now if you wonder if I’m engaged to the football player.'”
He has been watching her ever since

I’m starting to wonder if there’s any video of Taylor that this man hasn’t found.

Others shared their reactions too. “I love this for her so much. He truly knows her,” one fan said. “He has been watching her ever since,” another fan noted. “I’m starting to wonder if there’s any video of Taylor that this man hasn’t found,” one person joked.
“Oh, he heard the ‘monologue’ song,” another fan pointed out. “Why do I get the feeling this down bad bf went back and watched ‘young Taylor’ host SNL?” one fan mused.

Whether or not Kelce has gone back and watched all of Swift’s SNL appearances remains a mystery, but one thing is certain-he’s well aware of her history.
