Travis Kelce reveals Taylor Swift played him “stripped-down” versions of songs before her new album "The Life of a Showgirl's" release

Travis Kelce gave fans a rare peek into Taylor Swift’s creative process. He revealed to his brother, Jason, that he was one of the first to hear early versions of "The Life of a Showgirl" songs.

Jason asked if he heard the songs before they were fully mixed or "stripped down version before the final product."

“Oh yeah, 100%,” Travis said on Wednesday, via the "New Heights" podcast

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end also explained how hearing the rough cuts made him enjoy the final versions more.

“That stuff makes you really appreciate the whole, like, mastering of the sounds, and like hearing like the first version versus like the final version," Travis said.

Travis' favorite song from the album is “Opalite.” He revealed it during the Aug. 27 episode of their podcast.

“I think "Opalite"might be my favorite, though," Travis said. "At least right now, every time it comes on, I always catch myself.”

He added that he listens to the album daily and loves how poetic and fun it is.

Travis was born on Oct. 5 1989, which makes his birthstone opal. Swift discussed it during her Capital FM interview on Friday.

“Travis' birthstone is an opal," Swift said. "So I've always fixated on that, I've always loved that stone. It was kind of a cool metaphor that, like, it's a man-man opal. And happiness can also be man-made, too. So that's kind of what this song is about, is kind of the juxtaposition of those two."

The couple got engaged on Aug. 26 after two years of dating, and announced the news via a joint Instagram post.
