By now, everyone knows about the continent-spanning, International Date Line-crossing trek that Taylor Swift endured to meet up with her beau Travis Kelce at this year’s Super Bowl. According to new reports, he’s returning the favor and heading south of the Equator to join Swift on the Australian leg of her Eras Tour. According to Elle, Swift sent her private jet from Sydney to Hawaii, which is where many fans presume Kelce was after he teased being on an island in an episode of his podcast, New Heights.
During the latest episode of the show, he teased that he’d “venture to an island real soon” and added that the best ones were “south” of America. He didn’t explicitly reveal any of his travel plans, but it’s not difficult to deduce that he’s headed Down Under for the next leg of Swift’s tour. She has dates in Melbourne and Sydney through the month of February. March sees her headlining shows in Singapore before jetting to France and Sweden.
Kelce recently revealed that he has heard new songs from Swift’s new album, The Tortured Poets Department, saying that the tracks were “unbelievable.”
“OK, I have heard some of it. Yes. And it is unbelievable. I can’t wait for her to shake up the world when it finally drops,” he told reporters before his team’s big Super Bowl win. Swift announced the new album at this year’s Grammy Awards, where her album Midnights took home the Album of the Year honors.
“I would love to tell you that this is the best moment in my life. But I feel this happy when I’ve finished a song or when I’ve cracked the code to a bridge that I love or when I’m shot-listing a music video, or when I’m rehearsing with my dancers or my band or getting ready to go to Tokyo to play a show,” she said during her Album of the Year acceptance speech. “For me, the award is the work. All I want to do is keep being able to do this. I love it so much. It makes me so happy. It makes me unbelievably blown away that it makes some people happy who voted for this award, too. All I want to do is keep doing this. So, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to do what I love so much.”
The Tortured Poets Department will be available to stream on Apr. 19.
