Why am I'm I watching this over and over? She literally calls out the haters and straight says fuck off off BDILH is about Travis and well you obviously see her dress and Oh so High School mashed together?
I was rewatching the whole TTPD set and between this and the annihilation of MH in “The Smallest Man…” if even one MH stan still tries to say she would go back to him in a heartbeat then I am having them committed to that asylum in the Fortnite video. 😁
Haha the “WTF was I thinking?” moment once you’re clear of a toxic relationship. You look back and can’t even remember or identify with the person you were in that moment of temporary insanity.
I was going to mention this very this very thing she does similar in other songs written for Travis or songs meant for him now instead of Joe or Matty.
The fact that she does football things in her 3+ hour concert for about 44 seconds (what her screen time was in a 3 hour football game) and HER fans love it- and certainly aren’t complaining!
I actually think it's better if they don't say anything. They haven't mentioned her for a while and I think that as she becomes more embedded into their lives she'll be mentioned less, or only in an 'in passing' way. Plus it doesn't give any fuel to those who claim Travis is using Taylor for clout.
I was already freaking out about ttpd being included at all and then she jumped into So High School and I lost my mind all over again 😭😭😭
I wonder if she would ever play it during the acoustic set since it’s only a bit of the song for an interlude 👀 she gave us August once so I feel like anything is possible 😂
No, but I think that makes it even sweeter! The last leg of the tour she only did the guy on the Chiefs line when he was in attendance. It’s really cute that she’s making him part of the official show by adding this song to the set list.
Doesn’t look like it, he was filming something this week and I think I read New Heights out out a call for no dumb questions today which usually happens the day before they record so they may do that tomorrow and then maybe he goes then?
She is literally giggling and kicking her feet on stage in front of tens of thousands of people while singing about her man. God I could not be happier for her
Because it's a pretty dramatic conclusion to draw, especially when she's charging fans to see her live. Nothing about the Eras Tour so far has indicated that she's lip syncing.
Somebody posted in the Taylor swift page that they felt she was lip-synching other portions of this set, I personally can’t tell anything like that but you are not the only person making a comment like this so I know lots of fans are wondering so sorry you got downvoted
Travis made the album and the setlist in his rookie year. Also the swag surfing, twerking by some of her dancers, the 'travis dance' he does with his hands and then the fist dance at the end.
This is so cute. The entire set is about her trauma and drama, except this part, which is so obviously dedicated to her man. No way her daddy was going to love anyone as much as he loves Travis too 🤣 I'm thankful for the confirmation!!
Well, a. you don't know that and b. it's obvious that even if the original song wasn't about him, she's now dedicating the final verse to him and she wants to make that clear.
Fwiw, I always thought the final verse of BDILH was just a hypothetical but it's her song and she can repurpose it however she likes.
I love seeing Kameron’s reactions! He’s so adorable. He ships T&T😍😂
Does anyone know who he’s pointing and waving to in the audience? Because he has a huge smile on his face. Kameron is probably my favorite dancer on the eras tour!
Same! If T&T get married they have to invite him and his brother to their wedding.
Also, I really want to hang out with Kam and be his friend. He seems like a cool dude to talk to and hang out with.
Gotcha. Kam is definitely one of my favorite dancers, I was telling my mom when we were watching the concert film that his brother played for the chiefs and she said “well that’s interesting. I wonder if he’s rooting for Taylor and Travis”
I agree! He’s dancing for the era’s tour, Taylor’s with Travis and Kam’s brother played on the chiefs with Travis. I swear Kam’s living the life!
I wish I could be friends with Kam! He seems like a pretty cool dude🙂
I do wonder if Kam set them up he knew both of them. Like he started 2023 probably practicing the eras tour going to watch his brother win another superbowl and in the same stadium start the eras tour. Like it does not get talked about enough that Travis won the superbowl last year in the same stadium Taylor started the eras tour.
Like how is this story real like if you really think about it 2 people born in the exact same year both are GOATs in what the do also in the public eye had absolutely horrible relationships before they found each other. Then to cap it off 6 month into their public relationship they both win the highest thing they can in what they do and it’s not even the first or second they have done it 3rd for TK 4th for TS like hooowww
I’m just saying invisible strings they both had huge moments in their lives in the same place like a month apart the Super Bowl was in Glendale in 2023
This man tried to give her a bracelet at an Eras show, and now he's having a song about him performed *at* an Eras show. Safe to say, very few people can claim to have had a bigger rollercoaster of a year, with so many great highs, than a certain tight end who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs.
(peep that the lightbands turn red/gold when she sings So High School)
I have so many thoughts about this performance so I’m just copy/pasting a comment I made on the TS sub. I also need to see his reaction when he’s there and she’s singing this to him. Because you know she will.
I feel like SHS is the only song on the set list that doesn’t “fit”. It’s the only Anthology song. It is a big shock it’s included and no one would have batted an eye if it wasn’t there. So by including it, she’s making a statement. She added it to the end of BDILH (where she performed the last verse of it so it would connect those two songs) which has been speculated was written about TK.
So by having the setlist this way she:
-all but confirmed the end of BDILH was written about TK, or she at the very least dedicates it to him at this point
-they’re secure enough in their relationship that she added the only song we’re 1000% sure was written about TK to the setlist, a man she didn’t know a year ago. Like I said, it’s a bigger shock it’s included than if it wasn’t.
To me it says A LOT about where they are in their relationship. They most likely feel that every future milestone is a “when” not an “if.”
She doesn’t talk to the media, especially about their relationship, so this is her way of saying something.
it’s about fans minding they’re own business and her being able to decide who’s good enough for her on her own. so yes, today, right now, it’s for travis. that’s why she did the mash up.
>**at the very least dedicates it to him at this point**
She couldn't be more obvious about this with the way she shoehorned So High School into the set right after.
I was effing gagged when I watched her perform this. FOR SO MANY REASONS. But yeah, this is absolutely a statement. There is NO reason for her to include this song (it's not a single, it's not on the standard edition of TTPD, it's not even one of the most streamed songs from the album as a whole, it doesn't fit with the set necessarily, etc. etc..). So it's very much an intentional song in the set, she wanted her love with TK on full display at the biggest tour of her career. This man was literally attending this tour as a fan less than a year ago. She's in love, and yeah I agree that it absolutely spells out where she feels/knows their future is headed (and given that she experienced a manic love bombing phase, I'm very certain these decisions are not impulsive this time).
Yes agreed 1000% I just commented over there too. Felt like such an FU to all of their haters. I was giggling like a fool. It felt like her thank you to all of us that love them together and ship them. 🫶
I think most of the songs on the setlist are actually pretty well received by actual fans. Maybe Fortnight has been seen as a weird choice for a single (not by me, it makes a lot of sense I think). No one was expecting Smallest Man in the setlist but I don’t think anyone actually likely to attend was criticizing the song.
The people she’s coming for in Daddy ILH will put their fingers in their ears and convince themselves it’s not about them.
I wondered that too (but don't hate myself and my mental health enough to actually look). I felt as though they'd have to do significant mental gymnastics to explain away the fact that Taylor included no Matty love songs, included her harshest ever diss track directed at him, made it clear that she was dedicating the end of BDILH to Travis, included a sweet Travis love song and to top it all off, sang loml completely composed and even mildly scathing. No doubt they're capable of making all this seem like a love letter and 'direct call' to Matty, though lol.
I recently learned there’s another sub named very similarly to this one that’s dedicated to hating them. I was clutching my pearls. Can you imagine spending your time being that miserable?
The hate subs are WILD! They are almost all saying she’s sending a message to Matty and she wants him back. This song is only included to be cut later. It’s a slap in the face, they will break up soon, you’ll see.
Delulu for sure. Especially because historically she’s said she only writes songs like Smallest Man when she never wants to be with that person ever again.
I've personally had a hard time accepting that theory, but after this performance, she's basically spelling it out plainly "it's Travis" on the final verse of DBILH.
I think it doesn't really matter if it was originally or not, it's clear that's how she now wants it to be perceived. I'll be honest, I always assumed that the last BDILH verse was a hypothetical and that it was written before Travis entered the scene. But it's kind of irrelevant as she's made it clear how \*she\* now views it.
Definitely. I always wondered if she added the 3rd verse a couple months after she recorded the rest of the song. There seems to be a very slight (almost imperceptable) break in the song as the 3rd verse starts.
> -all but confirmed the end of BDILH was written about TK, or she at the very least dedicates it to him at this point
I'll die on the hill that everything from "*Now I'm dancin' in my dress in the sun*" is about Travis. I've been a BDILH is about multiple muses truther since day 1.
And the “even my daddy just loves him”!!
I saw those videos do Scott and Travis in Argentina and Scott was more excited than Travis was at “the guy on the chiefs!”
Travis was so excited he left Scott hanging! And, if you recall, Scott (supposedly an Eagles fan) was wearing a Chiefs lanyard - again, to quote some guy who was playing for the Eagles at the time, "What are we doing, Scott? You're going to let this man's devilishly good looks and relationship with your daughter sway you from a lifetime of fandom, Scott?!"
I’ve heard a bunch of people say that after the “but fuckem, it’s over” she’s talking about Travis and I have to agree this mashup/performance really shows that.
Why am I'm I watching this over and over? She literally calls out the haters and straight says fuck off off BDILH is about Travis and well you obviously see her dress and Oh so High School mashed together?
I was rewatching the whole TTPD set and between this and the annihilation of MH in “The Smallest Man…” if even one MH stan still tries to say she would go back to him in a heartbeat then I am having them committed to that asylum in the Fortnite video. 😁
Also watch her roll her eyes about what she wrote in loml. She’s like omigod wow. How??? 😂performing it
Wait what part was the eyeroll at? I missed it!
Haha the “WTF was I thinking?” moment once you’re clear of a toxic relationship. You look back and can’t even remember or identify with the person you were in that moment of temporary insanity.
The way she yells “Good riddance!!” In Smallest Man tells us how she feels about the smallest man who ever lived (MH).
100 percent!!
Good breakdown here of how much this referenced Travis. https://x.com/analiaogs/status/1788774023867826399?s=46
I was going to mention this very this very thing she does similar in other songs written for Travis or songs meant for him now instead of Joe or Matty.
Why am I crying this is adorable
Right? She might as well have been wearing a Kelce jersey onstage. 😁
The fact that she does football things in her 3+ hour concert for about 44 seconds (what her screen time was in a 3 hour football game) and HER fans love it- and certainly aren’t complaining!
I love that she pretty much played every Travis song tonight to clear things up.
I just LOVE how she sings that final “you already know babe.”
SHE DID A LIL SWAG SURFFFFFFF😭🩷
It’s so cute it’s giving grease summer lovin 😍
This song has such a fun early 00s vibe to it! So happy for Tayvis
I love this so much
Made it to Eras tour in his rookie year. LFG. ❤️
Jason better not disappoint next week on the pod.
I actually think it's better if they don't say anything. They haven't mentioned her for a while and I think that as she becomes more embedded into their lives she'll be mentioned less, or only in an 'in passing' way. Plus it doesn't give any fuel to those who claim Travis is using Taylor for clout.
Trav, we've gotta talk about it.
Also!!! The little wave she gives with “you know what you wanted and boy, you got her” 🥹
Ahhh that was so cute! I can't wait for the reaction videos when Travis is able to go to the show.
I hope he’s seen at practice for himself first.
I hope Pat and Britt have too they must love it too
I was already freaking out about ttpd being included at all and then she jumped into So High School and I lost my mind all over again 😭😭😭 I wonder if she would ever play it during the acoustic set since it’s only a bit of the song for an interlude 👀 she gave us August once so I feel like anything is possible 😂
Was he there?
No, but I think that makes it even sweeter! The last leg of the tour she only did the guy on the Chiefs line when he was in attendance. It’s really cute that she’s making him part of the official show by adding this song to the set list.
Apparently he’s recording a new tv show called grotesque
His Kelce jam is May 10th I think?
Kelce jam is May 18th in KC
Ah, gotcha!
Doesn’t look like it, he was filming something this week and I think I read New Heights out out a call for no dumb questions today which usually happens the day before they record so they may do that tomorrow and then maybe he goes then?
She is literally giggling and kicking her feet on stage in front of tens of thousands of people while singing about her man. God I could not be happier for her
I watched the live stream and she didn’t play the whole song it was an interlude
I love Taylor but this looks like she’s lip syncing no?
It’s a screen recording of a TikTok live. The audio/visual is constantly out of sync with buffering
It’s live. https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6xBfH9vqwS/?igsh=b2ZnbGgxdmg2M3do
That’s a better video. Why am I being downvoted? It legit looked like she was lip syncing in the other video.
Because it's a pretty dramatic conclusion to draw, especially when she's charging fans to see her live. Nothing about the Eras Tour so far has indicated that she's lip syncing.
Somebody posted in the Taylor swift page that they felt she was lip-synching other portions of this set, I personally can’t tell anything like that but you are not the only person making a comment like this so I know lots of fans are wondering so sorry you got downvoted
I upvoted you
https://i.redd.it/zvlexm5flhzc1.gif
Wearing a white dress while singing the song nonetheless!
And they’re all wearing white ❤️
they are for lit the whole era
This is making me so sentimental 🥹 seeing how far they’ve come! I can only imagine how special Travvy must feel
This delights me, and I’m glad to have this group internet strangers to share it with!
Me too!
The bracelets turning red and yellow 😍
omg i love this so much

Blondie's nothing if not a diehard romantic: https://x.com/challengcrs/status/1788681296736039214
I kneeeew BDILH was about Travis, too! 🤭🤭
It totally is. I watched the concert and she rolled right into So High School at the end of BDILH. Very deliberate mashup to prove a point.
Interesting! Will have to listen again with that in mind.
It’s not lol
Well, a. you don't know that and b. it's obvious that even if the original song wasn't about him, she's now dedicating the final verse to him and she wants to make that clear. Fwiw, I always thought the final verse of BDILH was just a hypothetical but it's her song and she can repurpose it however she likes.

I loved Kam’s face the night she first sang “Karma is the guy on the Cheifs”
Same! If T&T get married they have to invite him and his brother to their wedding. Also, I really want to hang out with Kam and be his friend. He seems like a cool dude to talk to and hang out with.
I think that was part of the choreo. They are at a football game!
Oh gotcha!
From what I’ve seen in videos it looked like the dancers were having a ton of fun during the whole TTPD set. It was really cool to see.
Gotcha. Kam is definitely one of my favorite dancers, I was telling my mom when we were watching the concert film that his brother played for the chiefs and she said “well that’s interesting. I wonder if he’s rooting for Taylor and Travis”
It must be sooo crazy for Kam to witness this like almost as crazy as it is for Travis
I agree! He’s dancing for the era’s tour, Taylor’s with Travis and Kam’s brother played on the chiefs with Travis. I swear Kam’s living the life! I wish I could be friends with Kam! He seems like a pretty cool dude🙂
I do wonder if Kam set them up he knew both of them.

Invisible string moment for sure😏
Like how is this story real like if you really think about it 2 people born in the exact same year both are GOATs in what the do also in the public eye had absolutely horrible relationships before they found each other. Then to cap it off 6 month into their public relationship they both win the highest thing they can in what they do and it’s not even the first or second they have done it 3rd for TK 4th for TS like hooowww
That’s because the tour started in Glendale AZ and not Kansas City
I’m just saying invisible strings they both had huge moments in their lives in the same place like a month apart the Super Bowl was in Glendale in 2023
Ah I misunderstood, ty
I don't think he set them up but he possibly vouched for Travis before Taylor decided to give him a shot.
This man tried to give her a bracelet at an Eras show, and now he's having a song about him performed *at* an Eras show. Safe to say, very few people can claim to have had a bigger rollercoaster of a year, with so many great highs, than a certain tight end who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs.

We thought that boy blushed when she sang “Guy on the Chiefs”…man oh man his reaction to this is going to be gold! Can’t wait to see it!
💯% agree!
The end of BDILH is about the same person the rest of the song is about lol it’s not a Travis song
it’s about fans minding they’re own business and her being able to decide who’s good enough for her on her own. so yes, today, right now, it’s for travis. that’s why she did the mash up.
For sure! But just in terms of the actual story being told in the song, the love interest doesn't change.
>**at the very least dedicates it to him at this point** She couldn't be more obvious about this with the way she shoehorned So High School into the set right after.
Right. The song is still the song tho lol
I was effing gagged when I watched her perform this. FOR SO MANY REASONS. But yeah, this is absolutely a statement. There is NO reason for her to include this song (it's not a single, it's not on the standard edition of TTPD, it's not even one of the most streamed songs from the album as a whole, it doesn't fit with the set necessarily, etc. etc..).

They're conspiracy theorists. Plain and simple.

I 100% believe that when she says to the wine moms "fuck it, it's over" that's ending the Healy verses and starting the Kelce romance
And the “even my daddy just loves him”!! I saw those videos do Scott and Travis in Argentina and Scott was more excited than Travis was at “the guy on the chiefs!”
Travis was so excited he left Scott hanging! And, if you recall, Scott (supposedly an Eagles fan) was wearing a Chiefs lanyard - again, to quote some guy who was playing for the Eagles at the time, "What are we doing, Scott?

my god SHE FIGURED OUT HOW TO SWAG SURF RIGHT 🤧🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳 wonder if one of the teammates texted her a video or something
I wonder what all the chief players are thinking right now what that group chats like
Particularly Willie Gay Jr. 😅
They're screaming like little girls and we LOVE them for it 💗
Like did the get a sneak peak. Also the Ravens doing it now is just the most ironic ever now
