Kylie Kelce laughed off her curiosity about Taylor Swift’s new song “Wood,” saying she probably didn’t need the fine‑print details about her brother‑in‑law, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
On the latest episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast, the 33‑year‑old praised the Chiefs star with a quick “Good job, Trav!” before adding that she felt the chorus was “1000 percent yes.”
The track is the ninth song on Swift’s 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl. It contains slang‑heavy lines that many listeners believe nod to Kelce’s football style, including a reference to a “redwood tree” and a playful jab at his gloves‑off, “hard‑rock” play on the field.
Jason Kelce, Travis’s older brother and former Philadelphia Eagles center, joined in on the banter. He teased Travis on the podcast “New Heights” last week, warning the Chiefs tight end to “feel cocky” about the song that, according to Jason, even mentions his “appendage.” Travis played along, saying he didn’t understand the references, but his sister, Kylie, responded with “women supporting women” as the moment unfolded on the show.
The song’s lyrics were originally described by Swift on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. She said she started writing “Wood” as an “innocent” throwback track about superstitions, not expecting it would be linked to a star player. She admitted she didn’t foresee the level of fan engagement and praised the track after its release.
For her own family, Swift’s mother Andrea noted in a SiriusXM interview that the piece is about “superstitions” and double meanings. She said the song could be read by those looking for a straightforward message but would spark another layer of interpretation for listeners who pick up on the hidden references.
The current pop‑culture buzz isn’t just about the music. It highlights how celebrities, athletes, and friends intersect on social media. When a pop star drops a track that may find a player’s name embedded in a lyric, fans and family members alike dive into the thread—speculating, teasing, and showing support.
With Travis Kelce’s continuing run as a league‑top performer, palm‑resolved fans are watching to see if the musical spotlight will stay just for a few weeks or become a longer part of his brand. Meanwhile, more tracks on The Life of a Showgirl have already referenced Swift’s fiancés, keeping audiences in anticipation of what other pop‑culture moments might emerge.
Kylie Kelce’s playful commentary and Jason’s teasing highlight just how quickly a single song can ignite cross‑sport fan conversation, drawing listeners in with humor and a genuine bond between sports and music fans. As audiences keep streaming the track and debating its hidden messages, the interaction between Swift’s music and Travis Kelce’s football fame will likely stay in the spotlight for some time.
