Taylor Swift, as the most popular global singer, has always been the object of speculation and curiosity. Her current relationship with NFL player Travis Kelce has particularly piqued the curiosity of pop music fans and sports enthusiasts alike. Sparking even more excitement for the fans of the dreamy couple, they recently got engaged. Moreover, Taylor is all set to release her latest album, The Life of a Show Girl.
As Taylor Swift is known to write songs about her love life, fans are convinced that a lot of the songs are going to hint towards her rosy romance with Travis. The Swifties have already been speculating that at least one particular song on the album is about the NFL star. So, here’s which song on Life of a Show Girl might be about Travis Kelce, as well as the previous ones that are inspired by him.
‘The Alchemy’ on The Tortured Poets Department has references to Travis Kelce and her exes
Most of the songs featured in The Tortured Poets Department have been speculated to be about Taylor Swift’s break-up from Joe Alwyn, Matty Healy and her new romance with Travis Kelce. And since the pop star started dating the NFL player while writing TTPD, this is the only album where there are references to their love story. And one of the songs on her last album is ‘The Alchemy‘, which is filled with football references and is reportedly about her making a comeback after her two heartbreaks and her relationship with Travis Kelce.
One of the lyrics of the song said, “These blokes warm the benches / We’ve been on a winning streak.” Many fans have speculated that Taylor referred to her exes Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy as ‘blokes’, both of whom are English. She also mentions ‘touchdown’ and ‘team’ in the song. But the most apparent giveaway in ‘The Alchemy’ about her relationship with Travis Kelce, is when Taylor refers to the moment when the NFL star won Super Bowl 2024 and came running to Taylor, marking one of the most romantic moments of their relationship. The bridge goes:
“Shirts off, and your friends lift you up, over their heads / Beer stickin’ to the floor, cheers chanted ’cause they said / ‘There was no chance trying to be the greatest in the league’ / Where’s the trophy? He just comes, running over to me.”
Taylor Swift took inspiration from her song ‘So High School‘ when she announced her engagement to Travis Kelce
‘So High School‘ paints a very fairy-tale-like picture of their love story, with Taylor opening up about how being with Travis makes her feel like a giddy teenage high-school girl with a crush. One of the most popular lyrics of this song is:
“Truth, dare, spin bottles. You know how to ball, I know Aristotle.”
In her Instagram post, where the couple announced about their new chapter in life, the caption refers to this popular line from ‘So High School‘. With her witty humour on point, Taylor called herself an English teacher and her fiance, Travis the ‘gym teacher’. This was a sweet nod to the song, which perfectly defines their relationship and how Travis makes her feel. Taylor Swift’s engagement post’s caption, which references ‘So High School‘, reads:
“Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
Taylor Swift reportedly took a dig at Matty Healy with a reference to Travis Kelce in ‘Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus‘
The song ‘Chloe or Sam or Sophia or Marcus‘ largely hints towards Taylor Swift’s break-up with Matty Healy. However, there is one lyric that, according to Swifties, seems to be taking a dig at the 1975 lead singer by mentioning that Taylor has moved on with someone else. Given the timing of the events, the singer could be referring to Travis Kelce. Here’s the line from the song:
“And you saw my bones out with somebody new / Who seemed like he would’ve bullied you in school.”
Is the song ‘Opalite‘ in Taylor Swift’s new album The Life of a Show Girl about Travis Kelce?
As Taylor Swift revealed her new album, The Life of Show Girl and the tracks featured in it, all the Swifties got to work immediately to find out what could the songs be about just from the title alone. According to fans’ speculations, the song ‘Opalite’ may be about Travis Kelce, as it is his birthstone, and the singer has also been seen wearing Opal jewellery recently, according to a TOI report. Although this rumour can only be confirmed once the album is released. Speculations are also rife that the same album, ‘Ruin The Friendship, is about Taylor Swift and Blake Lively‘s alleged severed ties after years of friendship.
