Kylie Kelce Turns Red as Zookeeper Makes Joke About Playing Taylor Swift's 'Forest' Song to Entice Tigers

In the latest FAFO installment of her Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce podcast, Kylie Kelce, a mother of four, visited the Philadelphia Zoo to meet some of its resident animals. During a stop at the tiger enclosure, a zookeeper humorously revealed that Taylor Swift's song "Wood" is the go-to track for setting the tigers in the right mood.

Kylie, 33, made her first stop at the tiger area, meeting Amur tiger Wiz during his feeding session. She learned various details about the tigers, including the arrival of a female tiger named Rory. "Its a little like a Love Island scenario here," commented Maggie Morse, senior director of animal care at the Philadelphia Zoo. Kylie quipped about Wiz, asking if Rory favored him. Morse explained that Rory was currently interested in Wiz's brother, Dimitri, prompting Kylie to joke about the possibility of a future tiger cub.

Regarding the music that sets the tigers mood, Morse added with a smile, "Its a lot of Barry White energy," revealing that the staff plays Taylor Swift's "Wood" backstage to influence the tigers behavior. The song, part of Swift's The Life of a Showgirl album, is known for its playful innuendo and references to Travis Kelce, Kylie's brother-in-law. Kylie jokingly asked if Wiz could be compared to a redwood, to which Morse responded, "Its a Japanese maple," playfully alluding to Jason Kelce's reaction to the song.

Throughout the episode, Kylie explored other parts of the zoo, including a visit to the otter exhibit. This stop earned a nod to her brother-in-law, Travis Kelce, who previously mentioned his fondness for otters. Kylie addressed him directly after meeting the animals: "Alright, Trav, that ones for you. Thanks for getting me in with the otters."

Shortly after Taylor Swift appeared on the Kelce brothers' podcast in August to reveal her album The Life of a Showgirl, she and Travis Kelce announced their engagement with photos from a garden proposal. Kylie later shared her excitement on Good Morning America, explaining that her four daughtersWyatt, 5; Elliotte, 4; Bennett, 2; and Finn, 4 monthswere thrilled to have Swift as a new aunt. "We are so excited for them and what the future holds. We love love, and we love Taylor and Trav," she said.
