Travis Kelce Breaks Silence on Girlfriend Taylor Swift Buying Back Her Music: ‘It’s Finally Hers’
Travis Kelce is sharing some supportive words for his superstar girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
On Wednesday, June 4, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, made some sweet remarks about the singer-songwriter, 35, finally owning her entire music catalog during an episode of the New Heights podcast, which he and his brother Jason Kelce cohost.
To close out the episode, Shaquille O’Neal — who was a guest on the podcast — played a snippet of “I Knew You Were Trouble” from the 14-time Grammy Award winner’s Red album.
O’Neal, a longtime fan of Swift’s, mouthed the words as the Kelce brothers smiled and moved their heads to the music.
“That’s my favorite song in the world, brother,” O’Neal, 53, proclaimed.
Travis, grinning ear to ear, took a moment to share some congratulatory words for his sweetheart. “Shout out to Tay Tay! Just got that song back too. Just bought all her music back, so it’s finally hers too,” he remarked. “Man, I appreciate that, dog. Love you big dog.”
Fans took to X (previously known as Twitter) to gush about the three-time Super Bowl Champion’s sweet reaction to Swift’s milestone.
One person wrote, “Travis knows how to support his girl! Let’s celebrate Taylor’s victory!”
“He’s a true one because he immediately knew it was the older version,” another commented.
“This is SO SWEET my goodness I’m so happy for our girl I absolutely ADORE this man,” a third fan posted on the app.
It’s no surprise the NFL star is showing love to Swift — as Star previously reported, Travis is hoping to make things official with his significant other, who he’s been dating since 2023. “He wants the proposal to be unforgettable, like something out of a movie,” a source shared. “He knows Taylor’s had some pretty romantic moments in her life, and he wants to top them.”
Until then, Swift still has every reason to celebrate, announcing last week that she had purchased her masters for her first six albums — Taylor Swift, Fearless, Speak Now, Red, 1989, and Reputation — from private equity firm Shamrock Capital.

Swift penned a heartfelt letter to fans on her website, thanking them for their unwavering loyalty. “To say this is my greatest dream come true is actually being pretty reserved about it,” she wrote. “To my fans, you know how important this has been to me — so much so that I meticulously re-recorded and released four of my albums, calling them Taylor’s Version.”
“The passionate support you showed those albums and the success story you turned The Eras Tour into is why I was able to buy back my music,” she added. “I can’t thank you enough for helping to reunite me with this art that I have dedicated my life to, but have never owned until now.”
