Taylor Swift thought Travis Kelce was hilarious before meeting him for the first time.
His sense of humor caught her attention before the 34-year-old singer went on to reach out to him and kick off their romance, according to Saturday Night Live star Ben Marshall.
Before meeting him, the superstar — who took barefaced photos with a lucky family in Sydney — said that she thought he was ‘funny’, he recalled on an episode of Mike Birbiglia’s Working It Out podcast released on Monday.
‘We worked with both Taylor and Travis Kelce before they got together,’ he said, before joking that he and his comedy group Please Don’t Destroy are ‘a little bit’ responsible for getting them together.
He explained that he and his group had worked with Kelce last year when the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, made his hosting debut on the sketch comedy show in March 2023.

Marshall said that after his episode aired, Swift shared some of her initial thoughts about Kelce with the comedy group.
‘She kinda told us that she watched his SNL episode and saw him in our video and was like, “Oh, this guy seems funny”,’ he recalled.
‘So, like, a little bit [we] brought them together,’ he added.
