Dave Portnoy slams Taylor Swift for song about Travis Kelce's manhood
Share and Follow

Barstool boss Dave Portnoy has ripped into Taylor Swift over a track on her new album which has been described as her ‘raunchiest song yet’.

At 35, the superstar released The Life of a Showgirl album on October 3, featuring a notably explicit track dedicated to her fiancé Travis Kelce.

Strewn throughout the entire song are lyrics about how the Kansas City Chiefs tight end finally broke her unlucky streak in love. 

And in the track, the newly engaged singer mentions his ‘magic wand’, ‘Redwood tree’ and detailed how ‘His love was the key / That opened my thighs.’

This openly sensual track surprised some fans, including devoted Swiftie Portnoy, who expressed his astonishment on social media after listening to the song.

In a video on X, Portnoy mentioned: ‘Gonna quickly snap through it and move to the next thing; Life of a Showgirl. I’ve listened to it around three, four, or five times.’

‘Without further ado, I have my top five songs from Life of a Showgirl. So here we go Number 5, Honey. I like it. Number 4, Eldest Daughter. Number 3, Life of a Showgirl. Number 2, Fate of Ophelia. And my favorite song on the entire album is Opalite. 

‘I think that has a chance to be hit. Very cool song. Happy-go-lucky, dancing through the lightning strikes – I can see myself singing along. Now, there is caveat. 

‘I really did like the song Wood the first couple of times I listened to it – it hooks you right away! You know I’m on message boards chopping it up with the Swifties. 

‘What is this song about? It’s about Travis’ d***. And then you re-listen and there’s ‘Redwood tree’ and ‘hard rock’. No, I’m not bopping and weaving to a song about Travis’ d***.

Portnoy – who has often spoken highly of Swift and previously received a hand-written note from the superstar – wasn’t the only one who was stunned by the song.

Plenty of fellow Swifties are taken aback by the lyrics. At the beginning of the song, she not-so-subtly references her and the football player’s bodies together. 

‘Forgive me, it sounds cocky / He ah-matized me / And opened my eyes.’ 

She sings: ‘Redwood tree / It ain’t hard to see / His love was the key / That opened my thighs.’

On the ninth track of the song, she also referenced their engagement. 

‘Girls, I don’t need to catch the bouquet, mm / To know a hard rock is on the way,’ Swift croons in the second verse of the tune.

At one point, she even references the NFL star’s podcast with his older brother Jason Kelce as she sings in one of the pre-choruses of the song.

‘New Heights of manhood / I ain’t gotta knock on wood,’ she sings, before adding that ‘His love was the key / That opened my thighs.’

Just last month, Portnoy came out and boldly claimed that Swift is the only reason brothers Jason and Travis Kelce are raking in big-money – after it emerged that their partnership with Garage Beer is said to be worth an astonishing $200million.

Portnoy wrote on X: ‘I feel like the Kelce’s keep getting stupid deals just so rich people can say they are friends with them and by extension Taylor Swift.’
