Travis Kelce has already joined Taylor Swift on stage once, but now there is an idea floating around that maybe he can open for her one day. 

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end and his brother, Jason Kelce, welcomed Shaquille O'Neal on their New Heights podcast this week, and Travis kicked things off by complimenting Shaq on his DJing skills. He even asked for some lessons. 

"Man, you got to get me on the DJ booth," Travis expressed. "You got to teach me your ways."

“Bro, I got you, I got you,” O’Neal responded, but had to throw in a little comment about Travis' famous girlfriend, Taylor Swift. 

“You know what’s crazy? You opening up with your girlfriend? Bro, you’d be a f------ star," O’Neal added. "10 minutes hyping up the crowd. Oh my God.”

“Come on, you know I’m a hype man," Travis answered. "You know I’m a hype man. Get it rocking in there. Have the Swifties bouncing off the walls for tickets out there.”

It's a solid idea. And O'Neal also made it clear that he is a fan of the singer. 

In the teaser for the episode that dropped on Tuesday night, they showed O'Neal and the two Kelce brothers jamming out to one of Swift's hit songs. He started by referring to himself playfully as "the Black Kelce brother." It then cut to another segment, where the four-time NBA champion held up his phone, which showed he was listening to one of Swift's songs.

“Hold on, I gotta show you guys something...” O’Neal said, followed by Swift's song, “I Knew You Were Trouble (Taylor’s Version),” playing. He then began lip-syncing, which prompted Travis to join in. All three also even showed off some dance moves.

"That's my favorite song in the world," O'Neal added. "I love it. You know it."

"Shout out to Tay Tay," the tight end said. "She just got that song back too—bought all her music back, so it’s finally hers again. Man, I appreciate that, dog.”
