Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have become the power couple the NFL didn’t know it needed. The pop icon and Kansas City Chiefs tight end got engaged earlier this year, turning every Chiefs game into prime-time entertainment for both Swifties and football fans.

Swift’s new album *The Life of a Showgirl* just dropped, and her promotional tour has revealed more about their relationship than anyone saw coming. One radio interview, in particular, sent social media into a frenzy.
Taylor Swift Reveals Travis Kelce Has Hot Gay Friends During British Radio Interview
Taylor Swift made the rounds in British media last week, promoting her latest album. During an appearance on Hits Radio with hosts James Barr, Fleur East, and Will Best, the conversation turned to her song Wi$h Li$t.
The lyrics include a line about wishing for “a best friend who I think is hot.” Swift flashed her engagement ring, making it clear she found precisely what she hoped for in Kelce.
Host James Barr saw his opening and took it. “I have a question, actually,” he said. “Does he have any hot gay friends?” Swift didn’t hesitate. “Yeah,” she confirmed before adding, “I also have a lot of those as well.” The casual revelation dropped like a bomb in the NFL world.

Swift described Kelce as “the most fun person” and “life of any party, even when it’s just us.” She clarified that finding a best friend you find attractive was the ultimate goal in a relationship. The whole exchange lasted maybe 30 seconds, but the implications sent fans into overdrive.
In 2017, Kelce told *OutSports* he would fully support a gay teammate, saying everyone deserves the chance to play regardless of identity.
He shared that he’s “comfortable” with himself and believes others should feel the same, adding that he respects everyone’s “views and opinions.”
The speculation immediately kicked into high gear. Are these hot gay friends fellow NFL players? Teammates? Friends from outside football? Swift’s queer friends are well documented.
She featured a roster of LGBTQ+ icons in her 2019 “You Need to Calm Down” music video, including the Queer Eye cast, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Adam Rippon, and multiple drag queens.
She even performed with Troye Sivan during her Reputation tour. But Kelce’s circle remains a mystery, and fans desperately want answers.

The desperation ramped up fast. A third fan directly tagged Swift herself, pleading, “Hey, @taylorswift, if you see this, hook me up. Play matchmaker for me.”
Even fans looking for different connections got in on the action. One wrote, “i need a wife please do you have someone in your list for me ?🙌😂”
