Travis Kelce is making a statement about his girlfriend Taylor Swift!

Speaking on Wednesday’s episode of his New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce podcast, the NFL star, 34, called Swift, 34, the “biggest and best thing possible” after his trip to Australia to watch her during her Eras Tour.

“A lot of false media being tossed out there. But I’ll tell you what wasn’t false, and it was when I landed in Australia and seen all the cameras,” Kelce said.

Describing the zoo he visited in Sydney with Swift, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end added, “There were full-on helicopters just flying around. They helicoptered us! Well, not us, Taylor.”

“This is all because Taylor is the biggest and the best thing possible,” Travis added.

“But I tell you what though the kangaroos were pretty sweet, got to see a red panda up close and personal,” he added. “It’s like a friendly raccoon.”

“Saw a tiger sitting up in a tree house, that s— was f—— sweet, ain’t gonna lie,” he continued. “Saw a lion close up. Due, when you hear that, cause Taylor took the picture, [roar] you’re just like, ‘Oh my gosh,’ let alone one, you see three of them run down from their rock, their perch, knowing they’re about to get fed and you see how fast and agile that thing is, dude it’s over.”

“I’m not messing with cats, it doesn’t matter what size!,” Jason replied, to which his younger brother said, “You could tell one was the big bad, I was like ‘damn, that’s a bad man right there.'”

“It was fun,” Travis added. “That was a fun one and then we got to enjoy the Taylor Swift show.”

Meanwhile, the podcast episode also saw Travis compare Sydney to Miami.

“Sydney was a beautiful city,” he said. “The layout was very similar, I want to say to Miami, but it has a lot of intercoastal and it was cool to see the layout of the land over there, let alone the zoo and seeing all the exotic animals over there. It was fun, man.”
