Published 04/25/2024, 1:21 AM EDT

One of the coolest Taylor Swift moments of 2012 was her stint on Punk’d, and it was epic for more than one reason. First was the elaborately planned prank that might have also pushed the envelope of safety a bit. Secondly, Swift’s hysterical reaction to it just made it even better. And third, it was one of those rare times when fans saw the camaraderie of her and Justin Bieber before things got all complicated between them. And now, thanks to Travis Kelce, that Punk’d moment just got another reason to be remembered as iconic.

Travis Kelce is not exactly an open book when it comes to his relationship with Taylor Swift. But when he brought comedian and former Punk'd writer Andrew Santino onto his New Heights podcast, the floodgates opened. On the latest Wednesday episode, the Chiefs tight end spoke about Swift's 2012 stint on Ashton Kutcher's prank show, Punk'd. Kelce was practically in stitches as Santino recounted the hilarious chain of events that had the pop star in tears before she caught on to the prank. “So good,” the Super Bowl champion chuckled.  

"I gotta ask Taylor about that one,” Travis Kelce quipped, followed by, "I’ll see if she was trying to sell it or not. " Even though it was just a prank, Santino was convinced that it was so perfectly executed that Taylor Swift fell for it hook, line, and sinker. The podcast has become a goldmine of uncovering Tayvis’ heartwarming love story. While in this episode, Kelce uncovered old stories about his girlfriend, in a recent earlier episode, he reminisced about how he managed to charm the pop sensation.

Earlier this month, in an episode of the New Heights podcast featuring Lil Dicky, the subject of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's famous love story came up. And the rapper could not help but compare their romance to something straight out of “high school,” where the star athlete and the music sensation somehow end up together. Kelce appreciated the comparison, but he just laughed and admitted that he was still not quite sure how it all came together.

Considering Swift is not exactly a sports fan and has usually dated men from the entertainment industry, Kelce confessed, “I don’t know how the f**k I did it”. But Lil Dicky chimed in, reminding him of the moment he made a move by trying to swap numbers at Arrowhead Stadium. Kelce blushed and laughed, quickly firing back, "No, I remember exactly how I did it". Now, it got tougher for fans to wait for more of Kelce Brothers' podcast episodes to hear about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's movie-like love story.
