A resurfaced interview featuring Taylor Swift explaining how she wanted a boyfriend comfortable with her fame is highlighting just how her current relationship with boyfriend Travis Kelce proves that they are couple goals.
In 2011, a then 21-year-old Swift sat down for an interview with 60 minutes where she opened up about how she hoped to find a partner who was comfortable with her level of fame and notoriety, something she has now seemingly found with her NFL star beau, per People. The chat has since resurfaced in a new episode of the program's A Second Look podcast, out September 17, where reporter Lesley Stahl spoke to the young star about how she was "revolutionizing the music business."
"It's so heartbreaking when things click, but your comfort level with fame is so different than [the person you're dating]," she said at the time. "'Cause I don't care ... It doesn't matter to me who's looking, but it does to some people."
She added, "You couldn't really have a good relationship with someone who cares that much. It seems a little unnecessary to care that much about keeping people out."
Swift's relationships have come a long way since then. After splitting from her longtime boyfriend Joe Alwyn in April 2023 after nearly seven years of dating, in which they kept their relationship fairly private, she has since moved on with Kelce, who doesn't seem to take issue with having such a high-profile girlfriend. Since going public with their relationship, they have continued to show their support for each other, from Swift watching Kelce and his team the Kansas City Chiefs win another Super Bowl to Kelce flying across the globe to catch the Eras Tour and even making a surprise appearance on stage.
