How Taylor Swift made Travis Kelce ‘better’ at one thing
The Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift relationship has drawn attention for everything from game-day appearances to viral stage moments. But in a February 6 appearance on sister-in-law Kylie Kelce’s Not Gonna Lie podcast, Kelce opened up about a quieter, more personal change.
While chatting with Kylie, the two reflected on when they first met. She asked whether her husband, Jason Kelce, had ever shared much about her with Travis early on. “Nothing. No. Me and Jason, we never talk about any of that stuff,” Travis admitted.
Kylie said she wasn’t shocked, explaining that Jason rarely offers extra information. She joked about how she often learns things from others before realizing her husband already knew. When she asks him questions, his approach tends to be, “I don’t know, and I don’t care to know.”
“I call them girl questions,” Kylie teased. “‘Cause they’re only questions girls would ask.” That’s when Travis Kelce credited Taylor Swift for influencing him. “Taylor’s made me so much better at that. You get the details,” Travis quipped.
The player explained that he now pays closer attention and makes a conscious effort to remember specifics, especially when Swift can’t attend events with him. On February 5, he attended the 2026 NFL Honors, where he was nominated for the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award. Although Swift “couldn’t go,” he kept her in mind throughout the evening.
“The whole time I’m saying hi to all these familiar faces and some friends of Taylor… and I’m just like, ‘All right, got to remember saw that person,’” he said. “I’m like throwing them in like my memory bank [thinking] ‘Don’t forget, cause she’s going to want some details ’cause she didn’t get a chance to go.’” Still, he admitted that remembering everything can be tricky, especially because of the beers.
