Taylor Swift opted to skip fiancé Travis Kelce and his brother Jason Kelce’s live show for their podcast in Los Angeles.
The pop superstar, 36, was spotted entering Electric Lady Studios in New York City on Monday, June 15, just hours before Travis, also 36, and Jason, 38, hosted their big event. The pop star kept it casual, rocking a camel-colored shirt, jeans and platform sandals. She kept her hair down, accessorizing the look with a brown purse.
Despite not making it to the West Coast with her beau, Swift has been a fan of the “New Heights” podcast since Travis used his podcasting platform to shoot his shot with her in July 2023. His story about failing to meet her at her Eras Tour stop in Kansas City, Missouri, earlier that month prompted her to reach out, ultimately sparking a romance between the two.
The podcast’s involvement in Swift and Travis’ relationship came full circle when she made her “New Heights” debut in August 2025.
“This is my favorite podcast,” she gushed at the time. “This podcast has done a lot for me. I owe a lot to this podcast. This podcast got me a boyfriend ever since Travis decided to use it as his personal dating app about two years ago.”
Shortly after the couple finished recording the milestone episode, where she announced her 12th album, The Life of a Showgirl, Travis proposed to Swift in the backyard of his home.
“I think, for Travis, the podcast was just sort of a distraction, sort of ruse, to keep me not looking out the windows of the house,” she explained on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in October 2025.
Swift recalled thinking, “Every time he does the podcast, it’s not like he blacks out all the windows,” though Travis had “fully, like, blackout drapes on every single window of the whole house” when she recorded her episode.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are gearing up to say “I do.” The couple announced their engagement in 2025, sharing a photo of Kelce down on one knee as he popped the question to Swift. “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,” the pair captioned their Instagram post at the time.

She continued: “I kind of realized that he’s walking around sort of nervous about the podcast, [saying], ‘My heart is racing. … I know how much this means to you. I just really want this to be what you’d hoped it would be.’ Because we’d been talking about doing the podcast and announcing the album. And he’s like, ‘My heart’s just racing.’ I’ve never seen this dude nervous. Ever. He’s professionally not a nervous person.”
When Travis later asked Swift if she wanted to “walk around the backyard and have a glass of wine,” she replied, “I’m always gonna wanna do that.” Once she stepped outside and saw the lavish floral setup where he ultimately popped the question, she realized “why all the windows were curtained and why he was nervous,” describing the outcome as “the best possible-case scenario.”
While specifics of Swift and Travis’ upcoming wedding have remained heavily guarded, the couple are expected to tie the knot this summer.
“They’re both involved and making decisions together,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly in April, noting that the two have been “focused on actually enjoying the process rather than getting caught up in the pressure” as the nuptials approach. “They’re keeping things light.”
The insider added, “Taylor thinks it’s cute that Travis cares about a lot of the details.”
