Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift did ‘Teenage Dirtbag’ duet, says friend

Travis Kelce isn’t known for his musicianship, but he’s apparently not afraid to sing along to a little karaoke Taylor Swift Behind the scenes.

Kelce, 34, and Swift, 33, recently sang a duet of the Wheatus song “Teenage Dirtbag” while hanging out with friends around the fire pit at Kelce’s house, according to one of his friends. “[They’re] peas in a pod,” the friend said WJ. Magazine in a profile of Kelce published on Monday, November 20.

Kelce told the outlet that his memories of the evening were vague, but his friend’s story could be true because “there was definitely some wine involved.”

While the profile is largely about Kelce’s football career as a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, there are still plenty of fun facts about his romance with Swift. The duo was first linked in September, almost three months after Kelce visited Eras tour stop at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, where he tried to go backstage to give her a handmade friendship bracelet with his phone number on it.

Kelce wasn’t allowed to meet the pop star at the time, but he said his presence ended up on Swift’s radar thanks to someone in her inner circle. “There were definitely people she knew who knew who I was, in her corner [who said], ‘Yo! Did you know he was coming?’ I had someone who played Cupid,” he told the magazine. “She [later] told me exactly what was going on and how I was lucky to have her contact her.

The pair have since been spotted having dinner and holding hands in New York City, and earlier this month Kelce flew to Argentina to attend one of Swift’s concerts in Buenos Aires. Swift has also cheered for Kelce and the Chiefs, including the team’s October game against the New York Jets in East Rutherford, New Jersey. At that match, Swift was joined by famous friends, including Hugh Jackman, Sophie Turner, Blake Lively And Ryan Reynolds.

Kelce admitted that he has never spent time with someone as famous as Swift, but the way she handles the global attention has helped him cope with the bigger spotlight that is now on him as well.

“The criticism she gets, how much she carries a magnifying glass with her every day, paparazzi outside her house, outside every restaurant she goes to, after every flight she gets off, and she just lives and enjoys life,” she said. Kelce. WJ. Magazine. “If she’s acting like this, I better not be the one acting strange.”

Swift was expected to attend the Chiefs game against the Philadelphia Eagles (and Travis’ brother, Jason Kelce) on Monday, November 20, but will now be in Rio de Janeiro for her third night Eras tour residency there after postponing a show due to extreme heat.
