Taylor Swift sent a sweet musical message to her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, in the lyric video for her her new track, So High School, off The Tortured Poets Department.
The 34-year-old Blank Space hitmaker gave a subtle shoutout to the Kanas City Chiefs star, also 34, by highlighting both their initials in the verses: ‘Cheeks pink in the twinkling lights/ tell me ’bout the first time you saw me,’ focusing on the T and K and the T and S.
Fans were quick to catch on to the implication.
‘At 0:43 the T and K in twinkling and T and S in lights are a light shade of pink. I think I might just cry now,’ wrote one observant follower.
‘THE FOOTBALL STADIUM LIGHTS, THE TS AND TK BEING A DIFFERENT COLOR, ALL THE K’S BEING CAPITALIZED OH TAYLOR SWIFT YOU ARE IN LOVEEEEEEEEEE,’ exclaimed an ardent fan.
‘This song is everything,’ wrote another. ‘I’m so grateful to Travis for healing her heart & clearly being the man she needs & deserves.’
In another part of the tune Swift sings ‘Are you gonna Marry, Kiss or Kill Me,’ referring to a 2016 appearance the tight end made on AfterBuzz TV.
During the interview when asked to choose between Swift, Ariana Grande and Katy Perry, the Kansas City Chiefs star, 34,
Kelce responded ‘Damn, that’s messed up. I don’t want to kill any of them.’
‘Ariana, sorry, love you, but you’re gone,’ he answered for the ‘Kill’.
‘And then Taylor Swift would be the kiss. And what’s the last one? Katy Perry? Yeah, Katy Perry would be the marry.’
The So High School lyrics continue, ‘It’s just a game, but really I’m betting on all three for us two.’
‘You know how to ball / I know Aristotle,’ goes another portion of the track.
‘Brand new, full throttle / Teach me while your bros play ‘Grand Theft Auto’ / It’s true, swear, scouts honor. You knew what you wanted and, boy, you got her.’
‘You can hear her smile singing this,’ wrote a fan.
Kelce seemed to confirm the song was about his romance with the Grammy winner when he and big brother Jason, 36, did impressions of their father Ed on their New Heights podcast after Swift sang ‘Do that impression of your dad again.’
‘Papa Kelce getting the shoutout is just [mind blowing]’ commented a fan.
Other lyrics, ‘Get my car door, isn’t that sweet? (That sweet) / Then pull me to the back sеat (Back seat),’ seemed to allude to the couple’s first public date in October 2023.
On another track, The Alchemy, the singer and songwriter seemed to send up a signal about her man’s Super Bowl win.
‘Cheers chanting ’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,’ she sang in the bridge of the song.
Then the chorus follows with ‘Touch down / Call the amateurs and cut them from the team / Ditch the clowns, get the crown, baby I’m the one to beat / ‘Cause the sign on your heart said it’s still reserved for me / Honestly, who are we to fight the alchemy?’
