Travis Kelce talks about Taylor Swift referencing him in a song about his masculinity

aylor Swift has seemingly taken a new direction with her music, moving away from her typical high school drama themes to something more risqué. In her song “Wood,” from her recent album Life of a Showgirl, she openly references Kansas City Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce’s manhood. The lyrics include suggestive language about lifting curses with his “magic wand,” alluding to his masculinity in a rather explicit manner.

The reviews and opinions of fans on this new song may vary, but what really matters is how Travis Kelce himself feels about being objectified in such a public way. It was actually his brother, Jason Kelce, who broached the topic during their New Heights podcast. Jason directly asked Travis about his thoughts on the song “Wood,” to which Travis simply responded with, “It’s a great song.”

However, Jason was not going to let his brother off that easily. He pressed Travis further, asking if he felt confident or “cocky” about the song. Travis, though, maintained that he did not feel that way and expressed his genuine admiration for Taylor Swift as an artist. Jason made sure to emphasize that the song was specifically about Travis’ “appendage,” adding a layer of discomfort to the conversation.

When Jason jokingly referenced the lyrics in the song about redwood trees and compared them to his own hypothetical song about a “Japanese maple,” it highlighted the awkwardness of Swift’s explicit lyrics. Despite the playful banter between the brothers, it is evident that Travis was not entirely comfortable with the overt sexualization in Taylor Swift’s song.

Nevertheless, it seems that Taylor Swift is exploring new territory with her music, and although “Wood” may not be her best work, it serves as a stepping stone towards a more mature and daring approach in her songwriting. As she delves further into this uncharted territory, it is likely that she will refine her craft and find her voice in this new style.

In conclusion, Taylor Swift’s provocative song “Wood” may have raised eyebrows, but it also marks a significant departure from her past works. Travis Kelce’s reaction to being objectified in the song sheds light on the discomfort that can come with such explicit references. As Taylor Swift continues to push boundaries and explore new themes in her music, it will be interesting to see how her artistry evolves in the future.
