Swifties have bad blood with Travis Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast.
Taylor Swift fans railed against the weekly show over a “gross” questionnaire sent out by the Wondery network.
The survey was romance-heavy, with one section asking listeners to choose three reasons from a list explaining why they listen to Travis and brother Jason Kelce’s podcast.
In addition to statements about the “Kelce family dynamic” and the “football-specific commentary and analysis of games” featured in episodes, Swift’s name came up multiple times.
“I was drawn to the prospect of hearing details and clues about Taylor Swift’s life and her relationship with Travis,” read one option.
Another read, “I like feeling like a part of the community that supports Taylor’s happiness outside of her music.”
Social media users blasted the survey as screenshots of it circulated online, with many finding it “kind of gross” for Wondery to “ask so many questions about Taylor.”
One fan wrote, “wondery+ doing a survey to see if exploiting Travis’ love life would be worth it is disgusting.”
Others agreed that it was “pathetic clout-chasing” on Travis’ part.
However, some Swifties pointed out that the tight end was likely unaware of the questions, with one claiming, “This is a Wondery thing. … Jason and Travis are not creating this survey.”
The survey, notably, was amended following backlash, with the Swift-related questions removed.
Travis’ rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The Super Bowl winner and Jason, 37, launched their podcast in September 2022.
Travis began dating the Grammy-winning pop star the following summer.
While Swift has yet to make an appearance on the show, Travis often mentions her — and famously used the podcast to shoot his shot after a failed attempt to give the singer his number at an Eras Tour concert.
