Taylor Swift’s mum reacts to x-rated song where she describes Travis Kelce’s penis
Taylor Swift has revealed what her mum thinks of her new sexually-charged tune, 'Wood'.
It's in the name, really - the 35-year-old popstar left little to the imagination as she sang about her fiancé, NFL player Travis Kelce.
Swift and Kelce started dating in the summer of 2023 after the Kansas City Chiefs tight end decided to try his luck when the Eras Tour came to the state.
Over two years later, they're engaged and look set to be living happily ever after, and everyone's heard about the athlete's 'Redwood tree' which 'opened' Taylor's thighs.

The 'Love Story' star made headlines over the weekend for the release of her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, which accumulated 250 million global Spotify streams in its first 24 hours, though one song has grabbed the attention of fans for NSFW reasons.
Swift speaks about reaching 'New Heights of manhood' on 'Wood', a reference to her partner's podcast, which he hosts with his brother Jason.
The line which is causing all the commotion on social media goes: "Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matised me and opened my еyes / Redwood tree, it ain't hard to see / His love was thе key that opened my thighs."
Sabrina Carpenter fans may think it's a bit tame, but for Swifties, this is almost unchartered territory, as Redwoods are one of the tallest species of trees in the world, alluding to the size of his... you know.
But on an appearance on SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up yesterday (6 October), Swift revealed what her mother thinks about her colourful lyrics.
According to Swift, her mum Andrea 'thinks that that song is about superstitions, popular superstitions,' which the artist confirmed, as the track starts with images of black cats, stepping on cracks and knocking on wood for luck.
Host Ryan Sampson added: “Aw, Andrea, we love you, so sweet.”
The '22' singer said with a giggle: “That’s the joy of the double entendre. That song, you could read that song for people and it just goes right over their head.
“That song, you see in that song what you wanna see in that song.”
Swift also spoke about her use of explicit lyrics across the album, something that people wouldn't necessarily associate with her, which she said adds more to the feeling in the tunes.
“If it, to me, improves the intensity of the moment or if, in terms of syllables or just consonance and vowels, if, if to me it pops off more, you know, there are certain lyrics that just bounce more,” she said to the hosts.
The 14-time Grammy winner went on: “Or if it feels like it’s a part of the vernacular of how that character that I’m kind of cosplaying in that song would speak. Like, there are a lot of different reasons you choose to throw in a swear word or like a certain phrase or a sort of alliteration or whatever.”
Swift said that that's what she loves about songwriting, noting that 'those decisions are fun and oftentimes hilarious to make.'
