In a moment of triumph at the 2024 iHeartPodcast Awards, Jason and Travis Kelce conveyed their sincere appreciation to Taylor Swift’s devoted fanbase, the Swifties, following the victory of their podcast “New Heights” as Podcast of the Year.
Jason Kelce, the 36-year-old retired player for the Philadelphia Eagles, graciously accepted the award in a video, expressing, “This is an incredible honor especially for two jabronies like us.” The brothers were quick to acknowledge and thank the Swifties, constituting 92 percent of the voters, for their pivotal role in securing the prestigious award. 
We are sincerely grateful for it. Once again, thank you to the iHeartPodcast Awards. Furthermore, thank you to the 92 percenters.”
Despite their absence at the awards ceremony in Austin, Texas, due to Travis being in Los Angeles with Taylor Swift, the Kelce brothers conveyed their gratitude and excitement through the virtual acceptance video. 
Following Swift’s series of shows in Singapore, where Travis Kelce and the 34-year-old singer attended Madonna’s exclusive Oscars celebration at talent manager Guy Oseary’s house, the couple’s absence from the red carpet at the iHeartPodcast Awards marked their first significant Hollywood event together.
Notably, after an extensive 15-hour flight from Singapore, where Kelce was spotted, the couple made the most of their stay in Asia. They enjoyed a lively group date night at Koma, situated inside Marina Bay Sands, alongside colleagues and support vocalists.
The pinnacle of Swift’s acknowledgment of Kelce’s presence occurred during a sold-out performance at the National Stadium. Interrupting her performance, Swift modified the lyrics of the song “Karma” to pay tribute to Kelce, singing, “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs / Coming straight home to me.”
In summary, the Kelce brothers’ gratitude towards the Swifties, coupled with their iHeartPodcast Awards triumph, adds another layer of appreciation to their flourishing podcast journey, highlighting the influence and support of Taylor Swift’s dedicated fanbase.
