The beginning of 2024 didn’t just mark the end of 2023 but also brought joy, celebration, and a touch of glimmer for Travis Kelce , the Kansas City Chiefs player. In an episode of the New Heights podcast alongside his brother and now-retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, the NFL star opened up about his New Year’s Eve celebration that took an unexpected turn with none other than pop sensation Taylor Swift .
Travis’ New Year’s Eve extravaganza kicked off with a victorious game against the Cincinnati Bengals, with more than 50 friends and family members filling the Arrowhead Stadium to cheer for the Chiefs. The festive vibe continued post-game, as Travis revealed on the podcast, saying, “It was fun, and then we all got to celebrate New Year’s together. It was cool, man, to have all the friends and family. I think I had over 50 to 55 people come in for this one. Yeah, a good New Year’s celebration with all the friends and family. And I got to exchange presents with Mama Kelce. He shared it with his brother during the podcast.
As per The Independent , the tight end, however, was tight-lipped about the nature of the gift, mocking Jason and saying that he would appreciate it more than the velour tracksuit Travis had gifted him. “Nothing makes me happier than seeing you walk in a velour jumpsuit with a Louis Vuitton duffle bag. I appreciate you dressing as me for the New Year’s game,” Travis quipped. The playful banter between the brothers added an amusing touch to the podcast.
