Overview

• In a newly public New Heights Film Club episode reviewing The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Jason Kelce introduced it as the film debut of “our friend Blake Lively” and said she “killed it,” with Travis Kelce agreeing and praising her athletic storyline.
• The episode was recorded in October 2024 and had limited earlier distribution for members before being reposted publicly on Monday, including on YouTube.
• Viewers questioned the timing so soon after Taylor Swift released The Life of a Showgirl, interpreting the praise as possible signaling, though neither the Kelces nor the principals have confirmed any intent.
• Context for the speculation includes Lively’s dispute with Justin Baldoni, where a federal judge recently denied his request to depose Swift.
• A source told TMZ that Lively was pleasantly surprised by the shout-out, while past signals such as Travis Kelce unfollowing Ryan Reynolds in April and Lively liking Swift’s recent post continue to fuel fan theories.
