00:00All right, I'm not even going to try to sing this one, but it's a love story and baby, she said yes. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey are engaged. The mega pop singer and decorated Kansas City Chief's tight end announced it in an Instagram post today after about two years of dating. Swift writes, quote, your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married. That, of course, refers to Taylor as the English teacher and Kelsey as the gym teacher.
00:25And Melody Chu joins us now. She's an executive editorial director at People. So, Melody, this is earth shattering news for so many fans out there. Taylor Swift made a career of singing about her love life and breakups.
00:36What's changed for her as to why this relationship works? What do you think?
00:41Exactly. I mean, we've been told from the start from sources that this relationship is so special.
00:46The support she's found and also the support that Travis has found, it's been a game changer.
00:51And their friends knew from the start that this was it. It could go the distance. And look, it happened.
00:58Yeah. I mean, I'm actually I'm equal parts shocked that it happened today and also not shocked at all based on all this.
01:05But, you know, we know about Jay-Z and Beyonce. Just how much of a power couple can Kelsey and Swift be given their business success?
01:12Oh, they are on top of the world. Unbeatable. I mean, he he used you see the success on the field, but he's also breaking into Hollywood.
01:21She has changed the music industry and beyond that. And together, they truly are unstoppable.
01:28You know, one other thing is obviously this is such an interesting power dynamic here because these are two completely separate fan bases that have somehow merged.
01:38So what will this pending these pending nuptials mean for attracting an even bigger fan base for the two of them?
01:45I think they've just infused such joy into both of these industries that they come from.
01:50She's lifted the NFL. He's gotten fans excited, you know, in other ways.
01:54And I think they the it really comes from the support that is so genuine between them.
02:00You can see how much they cheer for each other. They fly across the world for each other.
02:04He shows up at our concerts and vice versa. And they're only going to get bigger from here.
02:09And, you know, fans can't wait to see what they're building together.
02:12Yeah, absolutely. And, you know, speaking of a growing fan base, my mom can be added as one of the newer fans after they got together.
02:19So I'm sure she is going to be happy and have a lot to say about this when I call her later.
02:22Melody Chiu, we appreciate your time. Thank you.
02:25Thank you.
