Taylor Swift won’t forever hold her peace after marrying Travis Kelce — she’s always going to speak now through her music.
In an interview with BBC Radio 2’s The Scott Mills Breakfast Show posted Monday (Oct. 6), the pop star addressed whether she’ll stop releasing albums after she and the tight end tie the knot. “That’s a shockingly offensive thing to say,” Swift began after host Scott Mills noted how some fans had been “panicking” over the idea that The Life of a Showgirl might be her last-ever LP.
“That’s not why people get married, so they can quit their job,” she continued, laughing. “Oh, I know, they love to panic sometimes. But I love the person that I am with because he loves what I do, and he loves how much I am fulfilled by making art and making music.”
“That’s the coolest thing about Travis: He’s so passionate about what he does, that me being passionate about what I do connects us,” Swift added. “There’s no point in time where he’s going to be like, ‘I’m really upset that you’re still making music.’”
The interview comes just three days after the 14-time Grammy winner dropped her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl. A little more than a month prior, Swift and Kelce announced their engagement with a post on Instagram, writing at the time, “Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.”
Swift now has a wedding to plan, though she told BBC that rolling out Showgirl has her focus for now. She does, however, already have an idea of who might perform at the reception: Ed Sheeran.
“It would be hard to keep him from it, I think,” she told U.K.’s Hits Radio Breakfast Show on Friday (Oct. 3). “It’s like, Ed, if there’s a stage, you know that you’ll be on it. He knows what people want, and he wants to give people what they want. That’s the fun thing about our friendship is we both love performing, we love writing and we love singing.”
