‘Two peas in a pod’ Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce bursted into song during late-night hang at his house: friend
Taylor Swift isn’t the only singer in the relationship .
The pop star and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, belted out “Teenage Dirtbag” around a firepit during a late-night hang at his house, according to a friend of the Kansas City Chiefs player.
The unnamed pal told WSJ. Magazine in a cover story published Monday that the pair are “two peas in a pod” while recalling Swift, 33, and Kelce, 34, singing, “This must be fake / My lips start to shake / How does she know who I am?”
The athlete told the publication that he did not necessarily remember bursting into the Wheatus duet with the Grammy-winning performer.
However, he acknowledged, “There was some wine involved, for sure.”
Kelce gave insight into the start of their romance elsewhere in the interview — even though he admitted Swift would “probably hate [him] for” spilling the beans.
