In addition to multiple possible references to her boyfriend Travis Kelce, 14-time Grammy winner Taylor Swift may have sung about Travis’ older brother Jason Kelce in a song on her new album ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’
On track 15, ‘The Alchemy’, Swift references someone shirtless, drinking beer and cheering. She also makes references to chasing a championship.
It all fits with what Swift saw in person during the Kansas City Chiefs’ AFC divisional round playoff game against the Buffalo Bills in January, where Jason Kelce and the ‘Anti-Hero’ singer shared a luxury box. with the rest of the Kelce family.
Swift was in Buffalo to support Travis Kelce, who scored two touchdowns in the playoff victory, as was Jason, who tore off his jersey in the bitter cold while drinking several beers.
Kelce also jumped out of the luxury suite shirtless to celebrate with fans at one point and grabbed a little girl to introduce her to Swift. According to Jason, this was the first time he and his wife Kylie Kelce had met Taylor.
On January 21, Jason Kelce celebrated a touchdown by his younger brother Travis shirtless.

‘They take off their shirts and your friends lift you above their heads/Beer stuck to the ground, cheers are chanted because they said/There was no chance/Trying to be the best in the league/Where’s the trophy?/He just comes running towards me/Landing!’ Swift sings.
Travis is a three-time Super Bowl champion and won all of those championships in the last five seasons with the Chiefs.
Jason won a Super Bowl, in 2018, and recently lost his championship ring in a chili pit while hosting a live version of the Kelce brothers’ ‘New Heights’ podcast.
Swift fans believe there are multiple references to Travis Kelce throughout the album in ‘So High School,’ as well as elsewhere in ‘The Alchemy.’

There could be other sporting references in ‘The Department of Tortured Poets’, with Swift possibly nodding to a romance with Formula One driver Fernando Alonso.
In ‘imgonnagetyouback’ there is a reference to an Aston Martin falling into a ditch. Alonso drives for Aston Martin in Formula One.
Swift has been publicly dating Travis Kelce since last September, when she attended a Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears.
Kansas City went 10-3 this season with Swift’s assistance, including all four playoff wins in different cities.
