Kylie Kelce shared her overwhelmingly relatable response to the most provocative track from Taylor Swift‘s latest album, The Life of a Showgirl.
On the episode of her podcast âNot Gonna Lieâ that aired on Thursday, October 9, Kylie, 33, discussed her favorite among the Travis Kelce-themed songs from the album, which was released just days earlier.
“There are definitely some bangers on there, which I think everyone realizes,” Kylie mentioned. “One song that [my daughter] Ellie and I have been dancing to on our way to school is ‘Opalite.’ It’s such a great tune.”
Kylie, who is a mother to four daughters alongside her husband Jason Kelce, also highlighted âWish Listâ as another highlight.
“And honestly, let’s be real here? ‘Wood,'” Kylie went on. “Do I really need that much explicit detail about my brother-in-law? Probably not. But at the same time⊔
Kylie then applauded as she joked, “Well done, Trav. That’s it.”

Fans were caught off guard when Swift’s 12th album dropped on Friday, October 3, especially by the risquĂ© lyrics in âWood,â which talks about a certain part of Travisâs physique as a âredwood tree.â
âGirls, I donât need to catch the bouquet / To know a hard rock is on the way,â Swift sings.
In her recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Swift confessed that she never meant for the track to be as audacious as it turned out.

“Initially, I went to the studio expressing a desire to create a song that harkened back to a timeless sound,” she explained in a recent interview. âI had this notion about knocking on wood and various superstitions, and it all began from a very innocent place.â
She went on, âIâm not sure what happened, honestly. Somehow we started vibing in the studio, and things took a different turn. But I genuinely love how it turned out.â
Swift has clarified throughout her extensive promotional tour that âWoodâ captures a narrative of moving past superstitions. Additionally, she reassured fans that her mother, Andrea, hasnât caught on to the underlying messages within the lyrics.
âShe genuinely believes the song revolves around superstitions, which it absolutely does,â Swift jested during an interview on SiriusXMâs Morning Mash Up. âThe fun part about a double entendre is that you can present the song to people, and they wonât even realize the other meanings.â
In a similar vein, Travisâs brother, Jason, shared his thoughts on the new track during a recent episode of âNew Heightsâ from Wednesday, October 8. (Swift also mentions her fiancĂ©’s podcast in âWood,â referring to ânew heights of manhood.â)
âI found calling it âredwoodâ a bit⊠well, thatâs quite a compliment, Iâd say,â Jason, 37, joked. âIf someone wrote a song about me, it might be titled âJapanese maple / Sometimes can see.ââ
Travis dismissed his brotherâs comments with a laugh, claiming Jason wasnât quite grasping Swiftâs artistry, but Jason was having none of it. âThat song is fantastic,” Jason added. âThe production is right up my alley, and I think itâs an excellent track. So hats off to her.â
