Once again, Taylor Swift is trying to take her music to new heights.
That much is apparent with her most recent album release, ‘The Life of a Showgirl.’ Officially announced on the ‘New Heights’ podcast – hosted by her fiancé Travis Kelce and future brother-in-law Jason Kelce – the Grammy-award winner gave the program a quick nod in one of her songs.
Of course, the much publicized relationship between Swift and her Kansas City Chiefs beau had some wondering: Would she reference him in any way throughout the duration of her album?
The answer seems to be yes. In track No. 9, ‘Wood,’ Swift appeared to reference the famed Kelce podcast by name, hidden in the words. The lyrics as follows:
And baby, I’ll admit I’ve been a little superstitious (Superstitious)The curse on me was broken by your magic wand (Ah)Seems to be that you and me, we make our own luckNew Heights (New Heights) of manhood (Manhood)I ain’t gotta knock on wood
It’s not the first time that Swift has made some kind of reference the Chiefs star in her music. She famously changed the words to her song ‘Karma’ during a 2023 concert in Buenos Aires, a trend that she continued at other performances:
‘Karma is the guy on the Chiefs,’ she sang, as opposed to the original lyric, which is ‘karma is the guy on the screen.’
So, there you have it, Swifties. The takeover is now complete.
With one ring in the couple’s near future, Kelce and the Chiefs look to add some more jewelry come February at Super Bowl 60 – while the singer will hope to add more hardware of her own following her latest release.
