Travis Kelce reveals why he is 'terrified' to let his dad listen to Taylor Swift's 'Life of a Showgirl' album

Travis Kelce admits he is 'terrified' at the thought of his dad, Ed, listening to Taylor Swift's provocative new song, 'Wood'.

The track has caused a stir in the days since Swift released her 'Life of a Showgirl' album due to its unmistakable references to the NFL star's manhood.

During the latest episode of their podcast, 'New Heights', Jason Kelce grilled his younger brother and even suggested they should listen to the record with their father.

'(We should) have Papa Kelce listen to "Wood" live and hear what his reaction is,' the 37-year-old said. 

'I'm terrified,' Chiefs star Travis said. But his older brother warned he would 'do it regardless' - even if he couldn't catch Ed's reaction on film.

'It's a great song,' Travis said before his brother pressed him on the provocative lyrics.

'Do you feel like, err, do you feel...' Jason said, spluttering. 'Not "confident". I'm trying to think of the word. Do you feel cocky about the song "Wood?"'

Travis laughed as he tried to downplay the issue, insisting: 'No! Any song that she references me, I love that girl, what do you mean? Any song that she would reference me is -'

Jason interrupted: 'That's not just any song! This is a very specific you. It's an appendage, it's a very specific thing.'

Earlier this week, during her appearance on The Jimmy Fallon Show, Swift insisted the song 'started out in a very innocent place.'

'So I brought this into the studio and I was like: I want to do a throwback, timeless-sounding song and I had this idea about "I gotta knock on wood" and it would be all these superstitions,' she explained. 'And it really started out in a very innocent place... I don't know what happened, man.

'I got in there, we started vibing and I don't know how we got here. But I love the song so much.'
