Taylor Swift reportedly informed Travis Kelce of the lyric change in "Karma," but his heart still skipped a bit after hearing it live.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end made one of Swift's Eras Tour stops in Buenos Aires by attending the show. Although he missed the first night, he made enough buzz with his muse that they appeared in headlines left and right.

One of the hot topics that emerged was about Swift changing a lyric on her song, "Karma," and Kelcee could not help but express his shock multiple times since hearing it.

Travis Kelce spoke to his brother Jason Kelce during the Wednesday, November 15, episode of their "New Heights" podcast. Jason asked the tight end about his thoughts when Swift changed the words in her hit song.

For what it's worth, the "Anti-Hero" singer changed "the guy on the screen" to "the guy on the Chiefs" during her Argentina show, referencing Kelce's NFL team.

"I had no clue. Well, I might have had a little bit of a clue, but definitely when I heard it come out of her mouth, it still shocked me," Travis told his brother. "It was like, 'Oh, she really just said that!'"

Videos from the event showed Travis flashing a smile before covering his face because he was blushing. Swift's father, Scott Kingsley Swift, tapped him on the shoulder before lifting his arms up.

Elsewhere in the podcast, Travis took his time to apologize to Mr. Swift for the unexpected awkward moment.

"I never miss a high-five too. It's the most electric thing you can do at an event," he continued.

Swifties reacted to the blunder and hilariously commented on the awkward moment on X.

"travis kelce leaving scott swift hanging for a high five is so f------ funny like he didn't mean to but he was too busy blushing like a schoolgirl," one said, while another wrote. "Scott Swift wanting to high five Travis after hearing 'Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me'. HE IS HER ENDGAME."

Despite that, Travis still got a seal of approval from the patriarch amid his growing romance with the "Lover" singer.
