During his appearance on the “Bussin’ With The Boys” podcast, Travis Kelce skillfully navigated the topic of Taylor Swift‘s ex-boyfriends as the hosts Will Compton and Taylor Lewan brought up the pop star’s song “Karma,” which is believed to reference her ex, British actor Joe Alwyn.
The song includes the line about a “guy on the screen coming straight home to me.” However, Kelce shifted the focus to a recent event where Swift modified her lyrics during a concert in Buenos Aires to include “the guy on the Chiefs” – a clear nod to Kelce.
When the hosts playfully suggested that the song might be about another of Swift’s famous exes, Jake Gyllenhaal, Kelce smoothly deflected the conversation with a casual “What happened?” avoiding any potential awkwardness regarding Swift‘s past relationships.
Navigating the public eye
The relationship between Kelce and Swift has attracted significant attention, especially after Swift altered her concert lyrics and continued to perform the modified version in subsequent shows.
Kelce also discussed the challenges of balancing the public and private aspects of their relationship, highlighting the importance of striking a harmony between sharing moments with fans and keeping certain elements of their personal life private.
He expressed admiration for Swift and her ability to handle the intense public scrutiny with grace and composure, stating, “You want to keep things private, but at the same time I’m not here to hide anything. That’s my girl. That’s my lady. So it’s like, I’m proud of that.”
