Are Travis and Jason Kelce lurking Taylor Swift fan accounts?
On the Dec. 4 episode of New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce, the superstar brothers referenced "Tayvoodoo" — one of the popular phrases coined by Swift's fanbase, AKA Swifties.
The moment came when Travis said he loved the movie Angels in the Outfield — which follows a losing baseball team who go on a winning streak thanks to an angel named Al — and that he would "love to feel what it's like" to be supported by a fictional angel making his team win.
"I kind of feel like you guys are in the angels in the outfield," Jason, 37, said, referring to the Kansas City Chiefs' 11-1 record this NFL season — despite several close games coming down to the final minutes of the fourth quarter.
When Jason jokingly started to suggest that there's "some unknown" force helping the Chiefs pull out close wins, Travis immediately knew that his brother was calling out the popular Swiftie theory called "Tayvoodoo."
"Here you go with this f---ing tayvoodoo s---, dude," Travis said under his breath as his brother laughed.
The term "Tayvoodoo" was coined by Swift's fanbase years ago and has largely resurfaced amid her relationship with Travis.
"It's based off the fact that every celebrity who d -
oes her wrong gets wronged somewhere down the road, whether it has to do with the drama they gave her or not," a Swift stan account told PAPER Magazine in 2020.
And as the Chiefs continue to defeat some of the best teams in the NFL — except for their Nov. 17 loss to the Buffalo Bills — "Tayvoodoo" is stronger than ever.

Swifties were also thrilled that the podcast episode seemingly confirmed that Swift and her boyfriend —and his family — are clued in to the fanbase's lingo and theories.
One popular fan account of Swift's posted a clip of Travis and Jason referencing "Tayvoodoo" and wrote, "Like it was obvious to me that tayvoodoo & tayblessings were known about by many people, but i’m taking this as an actual confirmation that tay is seeing all our jokes omg," the account wrote.
"I have absolutely no doubt it's Jason who's lurking among us and he reports back to Tay and Travis," another account replied.
Next, Travis and the Chiefs (and maybe some Tayvoodoo?) will take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Dec. 8 in Kansas City.
