Travis Kelce has revealed that Adam Sandler left him sweating with a comment about his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
During the season 3 premiere of the Kansas City Chiefs player's New Heights podcast on Wednesday—which he co-hosts with brother Jason Kelce—guest Sandler praised the "Cruel Summer" singer, noting his daughters are big fans of Swift.
"She just means so much..." comedian Sandler said. "When you guys first started dating, my God was my family like, 'Yes! Look how good they are together. He's a gentleman and she's having so much fun with him.' Anytime Taylor's laughing with you, my whole f***ing family's, like, high-fiving."
Travis Kelce replied, "So good, man," adding, "You got me sweating over here."
Newsweek reached out to Taylor Swift's representative via email for comment.
In October, the Adam Sandler: Love You star attended the premiere of the Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour film in Los Angeles alongside wife Jackie Sandler and their daughters, Sadie, 18, and Sunny, 15. At the time, a video posted to X, formerly Twitter, showed Swift personally greeting the famous family.
"[Taylor Swift] hugs Adam Sandler's family and takes a picture before she leaves the theater #TSErasTourFilm," Deadline captioned a clip of the moment.
Back in 2019, Sandler and his daughters changed the lyrics to Swift's song "Lover" for a charity event.
"She means so much to our house," Sandler said of the 34-year-old pop star.
The 50 First Dates actor added that the family has been listening to her songs since "the kids were little."
"It was one of the first times that you listen to every song on the record," he told listeners during the podcast episode. "When I was a kid, I think the Beatles you did that with, maybe Elton John... Taylor, in our house—every tune, they knew every word. I love listening to her in the car, I love what she had to say—every message, every melody."
"She just floors my family, floors them," he said, adding that he gets "nervous" around her.
"I don't want to f***ing blow it for my kids and say something stupid, so I'm just like, 's***, she means so much to my f***ing house, I better say the right thing here.'"
Travis Kelce said Swift was equally happy to see the Sandlers at her premiere.
"She was so grateful that you took the girls up there, man. Said it was an absolutely blast," he said.
"She's lifetime forever," Sandler replied.
Travis Kelce is set to appear in Sandler's new movie Happy Gilmore 2.
"Travis, we're going to have fun because the scene you're doing is with so many great golfers—it's going to be amazing," Sandler said of the football player's role in the sequel to his 1996 hit. "You're going to be funny as hell."
The news comes as the tight end expands his career beyond sport. The NFL star will begin hosting Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? spinoff, Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? in October, and is reportedly in talks to star in the movie Loose Cannons. He recently appeared in FX's Grotesquerie and put his acting skills to the test while performing at London's Wembley Stadium during Swift's Eras Tour in June.
The Ohio native has reportedly scored a $100 million deal for his podcast with his brother.
