Travis kelce Reacts to Taylor Swift‘s Explicit ‘Wood‘ Song
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce reacted with visible discomfort to his brother Jason Kelce’s pointed questioning about Taylor Swift’s newly released song, “Wood,” which contains highly suggestive lyrics widely interpreted as being about their relationship. The exchange occurred during a recent episode of their podcast, New Heights, as Travis attempted to downplay the song’s explicit nature.
Swift recently offered insight into the song’s double entendre, explaining to SiriusXM Hits 1 that the track allows listeners to “see in that song what you wanna see in that song,” while together assuring her mother it was about “superstitions.” The conversation between the Kelce brothers highlights the public’s fascination with the high-profile couple and the increasingly explicit nature of Swift’s songwriting as she explores her relationship with the NFL star.This moment underscores the challenges of navigating a very public romance, notably when artistic expression delves into intimate details.
During the podcast discussion, Jason pressed Travis about his reaction to the song, asking, “Do you feel cocky?” When Travis insisted he would enjoy any song his fiancée writes, Jason responded, “Its not just any song… This is a very specific you. … Well, it’s not just you, though. It’s an appendage.” Travis then replied, “I think you’re not understanding the song,” prompting an exasperated ”Jesus Christ, Travis! Come on!” from his brother.
jason further teased, “I thought Redwood was a little bit… that’s a generous word.” Swift shared with SiriusXM that she played the track for her mother, who interpreted it as being about common superstitions. The singer emphasized the “joy of the double entendre,” noting the song can be easily misunderstood by those unaware of its suggestive undertones.
Swift also praised Kelce, describing him as “one of one” and someone you immediately recognize as “the best” upon meeting him.The song, and the subsequent reactions, continue to fuel public interest in the couple’s relationship and Swift’s creative process.
