Swifties have been buzzing since Travis Kelce made his onstage debut during girlfriend Taylor Swift’s “Eras Tour” show in London on June 23, and now, he’s sharing details about how his surprise appearance came to be. On the July 3 episode of his “New Heights” podcast, which he co-hosts with brother Jason Kelce , the Kansas City Chiefs tight end revealed he originally thought of the idea to join Swift onstage at Wembley Stadium. "It's very unlike me," the three-time Super Bowl winner joked.
"I don't love going on stages." His brother, who attended Swift's other London shows with wife Kylie Kelce , asked who came up with the idea. "I initially mentioned it to Tay.
I was like, 'How funny would it be if I just rolled out on one of the bikes during the '1989' (portion of the show),'" Travis Kelce explained. "She started laughing," he continued. "She was like, 'Would you seriously be up for doing something like that?'" He told her he would "love" to be involved.
"I've seen the show enough — might as well put me to work here," he recalled. "Sure enough, she found the perfect, perfect part of the show for me to come in. There was no bike in case I ran into somebody else or hit one of the dancers or anything.
It was the safest option," the younger Kelce explained. He also shouted out some of Swift's dancers, including Kameron Saunders, who is the brother of Kelce’s former Chiefs teammate Khalen Saunders , and explained how the dancers are trying to bring Swift back to .
