Travis Kelce needs to ask Taylor Swift about her 2012 Punk’d episode, stat.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end and brother Jason Kelce welcomed comedian Andrew Santino — who helped orchestrate the prank against Swift — onto the Wednesday, April 24, episode of their New Heights podcast.
While Travis had already seen the episode —where Justin Bieber and Santino teamed up to have Swift believe she accidentally ruined a couple’s yacht wedding by setting off a firework on a boat — he cracked up at Santino’s retelling of the story.
“I was the groom, and we were dinghy-ed to shore with our boat on fire, and we blamed her for ruining our wedding,” the prankster recalled.
Travis, who thought the episode was hilarious, noted he’s “got to ask Tay about that.”
Moreover, he explained, he wanted to see if her reaction was genuine. “I’ll see if she was trying to sell it or not,” the NFL star said. “When I saw it, I bought it.”
Santino was sure of it, saying he “know[s] she bought it,” calling the prank “perfect.”
Swift, for her part, was “absolutely traumatized and terrified” after the bit, she told CMT Insider at the time, per MTV News. However, she had no desire to get Bieber back — for multiple reasons.
For one, she’s “not really that girl,” she told the outlet. And two? “He’s too smart. I’d never be able to punk him. Like, he’d figure it out, then turn the tables on me, and then it would be Justin 2, Taylor 0.”
Since the 2012 episode of Punk’d, Swift and Bieber have not had the easiest relationship — to say the least. One year later, she made an exaggerated gagging face after her bestie, Selena Gomez, reunited with ex-boyfriend Bieber at the Billboard Music Awards and shared a kiss.
Travis Kelce #87 of the Kansas City Chiefs celebrates with Taylor Swift after a 17-10 victory against the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game at M&T Bank Stadium on January 28, 2024 in Baltimore,…The drama only escalated in 2016, when Bieber appeared to side with Kanye West amid the rapper’s massive feud with Swift, during which Kim Kardashian leaked West’s infamous phone call with the pop star about name-dropping her on his song “Famous.”
At the time, Bieber shared a photo of him and West, captioning the Instagram post, “What up Taylor.”
Three years later, when his longtime manager, Scooter Braun, purchased nearly all of Swift’s masters — in a notorious move Swift repeatedly slammed in multiple statements and in her songs — Bieber apologized for the West post and defended Braun.
