The “Monday Night Countdown” star offered his own analysis about his brother Travis’ girlfriend during a morning radio guest spot
Jason Kelce is showing his appreciation for Taylor Swift!
During an interview with Philadelphia’s 94WIP Morning Show published on Thursday, Sept. 12, the Monday Night Countdown star took a moment to rave about brother Travis Kelce’s girlfriend.
“She is, like, so talented it’s ridiculous,” Jason, 36, said. ”Not only as a singer, a songwriter, production-wise, like, she’s so involved in every facet of it.”
The retired Philadelphia Eagles center then went on to share his perspective about the 34-year-old pop star’s level of fame.

“When I think of, like, big names in music that have sustained over such a long time, and the way she has [fame], it feels like all of them kind of get to that,” Kelce said. “She’s at that, like, Bruce Springsteen [level] — like, tied.”
When co-hosts Joe DeCamara and Jon Ritchie argued that Swift’s popularity is more on par with “John Lennon and [Paul] McCartney, Elvis, Michael Jackson,” Kelce couldn’t help but agree.
“I think that a lot of these guys, again, they’re great artists, and that’s what the profession is, but when you can be the great artist as well as the great business manager as well as the great producer and, when you wear all of those hats, it’s just remarkable to me that she can do all of that,” he said.

Later in the interview, Jason also commented on how “overwhelming” Swift’s worldwide fame can be at times, saying, “It’s a lot. There’s a lot of people paying attention at all times, which is positive and negative at times.”
Jason and his wife, Kylie, meanwhile, have shown their support for Swift in the past, most recently over the summer when the couple attended the artist’s Eras Tour show at London’s Wembley Stadium.
And over the course of Travis’ relationship with Swift, Jason has had front-row seats to observe the “Fortnight” singer on and off the stage.
“I think that she’s built up such a fan base and a contingency and an amount of people that really, really just, like, love her that it’s really cool at the same time,” he told 94WIP Morning Show, before adding about the superstar, “I think what’s so impressive about her is it’s so self-controlled. Like, she’s so involved in all of it.”
