While we might not know who exactly Taylor Swift references in her lead single for The Tortured Poets Department (is it a nod to her lingering feelings for Joe? A hint at her fleeting situationship with Matty?), that's besides the point. Or at least it is now that "Fortnight" brought us something better: never-before-seen footage of Swift and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

In a behind-the-scenes video for the track, our girl Tay revealed an intimate look at her relationship to the Kansas City Chiefs tight end with an adorable clip of the couple in the kitchen. There's also a dimly lit shot, which appears to be them, and a few more subtle nods—like Swift's Kansas University sweatshirt and a Chiefs pickleball paddle.

Though it's not clear what Swift was whipping up in the kitchen when Travis swooped in for a smooch, later in the video she's caught frosting the cinnamon rolls that have been touted as Kelce's go-to "pregame" snack.

Former NFL player Bernie Kosar is actually the one that revealed the tidbit about Swift's beloved pastry recipe. In December, Kosar told a radio show that Swift brought the cinnamon rolls by before his big game against the Los Angeles chargers last year.

"That was at his house like three hours before the game," said Kosar. "We’re having pregame meal and Taylor is so nice she comes in by herself and she’s so cool, she brings, she made her homemade cinnamon rolls for Travis for pregame meal."

Swift herself posted about the recipe on Instagram in 2020, writing, "When you're proud of your buns, so you post them on the internet."

Taylor is known for more than just her buns (and an entire trophy case worth of Grammys), though. The TTPD singer's homemade pop-tarts are a hit too, according to KC head coach Andy Reid himself.

"Behind-the-scenes... [Taylor] likes to cook, so she made the offensive linemen these homemade pop tarts," Reid revealed, before adding, "she didn't give me one, and the offensive linemen definitely didn't give me one... She knew right where to go."
