Travis Kelce appears to have dropped an Easter egg relating to Taylor Swift’s new album.
Newsweek reached out to Kelce’s representative via email for comment on Wednesday.
Why It Matters
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 35, and pop superstar, also 35, have been making more headlines recently. First, Swift announced her highly anticipated 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, on Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother, Jason Kelce. Just two weeks later, the A-list couple—who began dating in 2023—announced their engagement.
Per Forbes, Swift is one of America’s richest self-made women with a net worth of $1.6 billion. Kelce’s net worth, meanwhile, is estimated to be roughly $70 million.
What To Know
On Tuesday, Swift fan account @everslay13 shared a viral X note about Kelce. “he easter egged us,” the caption read.
One of the photos referenced the Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? host’s Instagram post from July 24, which featured a slew of photos including his fiancée.
“Had some adventures this offseason, kept it [100 points emoji],” it read.
The other photo was from Swift’s The Life of a Showgirl Spotify pop-up experience in New York City. Swifties—the affectionate term given to the “Cruel Summer” singer’s fandom—pointed out that “Keep it 100” was written on a mirror.
One fan even shared where the saying may have originated from. “Taylor Swift favourite number is 13 and Travis’s number on the Chiefs is 87,” X user @aliiiaugust shared. “87+13=100.”
At the time of publication, @everslay13’s post racked up 463,000 views and 13,000 likes.
“He loves being sneaky,” @Sophie17i wrote on X. In a separate post, she added: “I forgot that since he’s now part of the family that means he’s part of the family business and we have to look out for his sneaky a** too.”
@theycallmepink1 agreed: “He’s naughty and sneaky.”
What People Are Saying
Swift is known to drop Easter eggs for her fans and gave insight into how she goes about them during her New Heights episode: “The art of the Easter egg is that there’s dos and don’ts, right? Like, I’m never going to plant an Easter egg that ties back to my personal life. It’s always going to be toward music… something I’m coming up with, something I have coming up, a plan I have coming together. Something that you don’t know I’m saying for a specific reason that you’ll hear later and you’ll go back and be like, ‘Oh my God.'”
What Happens Next
The Life of a Showgirl is set to be released on Friday, October 3, and Kelce’s 36th birthday is on Sunday, October 5.
