David Letterman tells Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce haters to ‘shut up’: ‘It’s good for the footballers’
David Letterman is a Swiftie.
The 76-year-old talk show host defended the “Anti-Hero” singer against Brads, Chads, and Angry Dads mad about her presence at NFL games amid her high-profile relationship with Travis Kelce.
“Now here’s Taylor Swift, who is a glowing bright light of goodness in the world and she starts dating Kelsey Grammer,” Letterman hilariously confused the Kansas City Chiefs tight end for the “Frasier” actor in a resurfaced clip from an October 2023 video.
Producer Barbara Gaines quickly stopped Letterman, telling him “No, that’s not true,” before he continued, “People go crazy [about seeing Swift]. The [Kelce] people say, ‘No, no, don’t bother us. We’re all caught up in football. We don’t want Taylor in football.’”
Letterman, who interviewed Swift many times before he retired from the “Late Show” in 2015, concluded, “This is such a lovely thing. Shut up! It’s good for the footballers. It’s good for Taylor Swift. And it’s something positive and happy for the world. … God bless, Taylor Swift and Kelsey Grammer.”

Luckily for Letterman, Swift is expected to attend Super Bowl LVII on Feb. 11 as the Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
Swift would logistically be able to make it even though she’ll perform her “Eras Tour” in Tokyo, Japan, on Feb. 10 thanks to her private jet and Las Vegas being 17 hours behind Tokyo.
Over the weekend, Kelce explained how he and Swift can shake off the intense public attention around their relationship.

“The only thing we’ve talked about is as long as we’re happy, we can’t listen to anything that’s outside noise,” he said during a press conference. “That’s all that matters.”
The couple also received public support from ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith last week.
“… She’s going to support her dude. To show up at a football game and the cameras are on her — that ain’t her fault. And excuse me, by the way, she went to the games after the concerts. It’s not like she used the games to bump up the concerts,” he said on “The Howard Stern Show.”
“… Taylor Swift is that girl! Let’s show some respect. She probably is gonna have a positive impact on Travis Kelce’s performance, OK. I’m not trying to disrespect Taylor Swift.”
Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift will be staying in THE MOST EXPENSIVE HOTEL ROOM of $25K-per-night hotel suite in Sydney during Eras Tour. Spread across two levels, the outrageous $25,000 per night Presidential Villa on the 88th floor of the Crown Sydney comes with a massive karaoke room, sauna, pool table, bar, and a butler.
Travis Kelce finally touched down in Sydney on Thursday morning to join his girlfriend Taylor Swift on the Australian leg of her much-awaited Eras tour.
But one big clue has revealed how the American tight end, 34, likely doesn’t have big romantic plans for his first weekend Down Under with the global megastar amid her busy touring schedule.
As he disembarked Taylor’s private jet at Sydney Airport after landing at 8.57am, airport staff were seen carrying his golf clubs off the Bombardier Global 6000.
His sporting goods may hint at his weekend plans to hit the golf course while his pop star girlfriend takes to the stage for four sold out Sydney concerts.
As well as bringing his clubs with him, Travis has also been joined on his big Australia trip by his friend and regular golfing buddy, Ross Travis.

The pair competed in a charity golf tournament shortly before making the trip Down Under.
Ross had given his Instagram followers a glimpse at their flight from Hawaii while they were en route, before the pair were seen disembarking the craft together.
Tight end Ross, 31, then accompanied his friend to the Crown hotel in Sydney’s Barangaroo, where Travis is believed to be staying with his girlfriend Taylor, 34.
Pictures showed Kelce and Ross admiring Sydney’s landmarks from a lavish room, which boasted the same modern lights as the $25,000-per-night presidential villa, where Taylor is rumoured to be staying.
The 800sqm residence is split over two levels and boasts unparalleled views over Sydney Harbour.
The first floor features an expansive living area, kitchen, bar, pool table, and a media room for entertaining.
A dining room comfortably hosts up to 10 people and there is also a fully equipped office and butler’s quarters.

Meanwhile, the second floor includes a spectacular master bedroom features a spacious bathroom complete with a marble spa bath and steam shower.
A second king-size bedroom features a deluxe en-suite, with the luxury extending to the fitness room complete with infrared sauna, while an open-air terrace also boasts a private, heated infinity pool.
It is expected that Travis will attend Taylor’s upcoming shows in Sydney – which will run nightly from Friday, February 23 to Monday, February 26.
Rumours are heating up that the pair will also enjoy a romantic holiday together in Queensland after Taylor wraps up her Australian tour.
The couple were last pictured together during Super Bowl LVIII in Las Vegas on February 11, 2024, in Las Vegas, Nevada, as they celebrated the Kansas City Chiefs’ win.
Swiftie mania has rapidly spread across Australia ever since Taylor began her run of arena concerts, and the excitement has only ramped up more upon Travis’ arrival.

Across all Australian TV channels on Thursday morning, the same live footage of Travis’ flight touching down at Sydney Airport was shown as excitement overran the country.
On Sunrise, Natalie Barr and Matt Shirvington eagerly tracked Travis’ flight as they had reporter Liam Tapper live at the scene waiting for the flight to land.
The co-hosts were seen keeping an eye on the jet via a live flight tracker, which they revealed temporarily crashed amid a huge number of Swifties tracking the plane.
Liam revealed: ‘We’ve been refreshing the flight tracker app. It even crashed at one point, they had their engineers working on it, such is the interest in Travis’ flight!’
