Pop superstar Taylor Swift was reportedly "very supportive" of the ESPN docuseries chronicling the Kansas City Chiefs and her boyfriend, tight end Travis Kelce, according to PEOPLE.
Swift, 35, "approved all of her image and likeness" for footage of her attending games in support of Kelce in the six-part docuseries, despite filmmakers not attempting to interview her in order to keep the focus on the NFL franchise.
“Now you see her in the way that I think is how she wanted to be seen, which is as a fan of the community,” said Chiefs CMO and Foolish Club Studios COO Lara Krug via PEOPLE.
The six-episode docuseries is produced by Words + Pictures in association with Skydance Sports, NFL Films, 2PM Productions, and Foolish Club Studios and will premiere at a later date on ESPN and Disney+. The docuseries is directed by Words + Pictures' Kristen Lappas and produced by many of the team responsible for The Last Dance docuseries chronicling Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls including executive producers Connor Schell, Jason Hehir, Libby Geist and Aaron Cohen, as well as showrunner Matt Maxson.
Swift also revealed details about starting her relationship with Kelce, 35, while appearing on the New Heights podcast alongside him and his brother, retired former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, released on Wednesday (August 13).
"This podcast has done a lot for me, I owe a lot to this podcast. This podcast got me a boyfriend ever since Travis decided to use it as his personal dating app about two years ago," Swift said, referencing Kelce saying he attempted to give her a friendship bracelet when he attended her her 'Eras Tour' concert at Arrowhead Stadium, the home of the Chiefs, prior to their relationship.
Swift then revealed that Kelce "didn't even reach out to our management" when he and quarterback Patrick Mahomes attended the concert.
"He came with Pat and he thought that cause he knows the elevator lady that he could talk to her about just getting down to my dressing room," Swift said.
"Yeah, that's how it works, you just go," Jason joked before laughing.
"That's how it works in 1973," Swift responded. "But yeah, he really was just like, 'yeah, I know a guy, I can figure this out.'"
