Elsewhere in his chat with Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, Bill showered praises on Swift for singing for "three-plus hours straight" on stage.

"She's not like a lot of people who do concerts," he noted. "She did three hours-plus straight. I mean, straight through! She just kept on singing the songs and kept on doing it, which I think is a very respectful thing to do for the audience."

"I was fascinated watching our crowd of kids, especially my granddaughter, standing there with the wife of one of Chelsea's friends from 20-plus years ago and her daughters and all of them up there singing, and they all knew the words to all the songs," Bill continued.

Ripa then inquired if his young girls asked him to use his status to meet Swift backstage.

"Actually, they didn't, and I probably couldn't have," Bill said while laughing. "And we didn't, but you know the venues are so big, you got to walk across a football field to get to backstage."

Over the weekend, the "Bad Blood" singer was visibly emotional as she reminisced on the fact that her Eras Tour concert stops are coming to an end soon.

Swift's last set of shows will take place in Vancouver next month, and she will most likely seek to wrap it all up in a high.

"Toronto, we're at the very end of this tour so you doing that, you have no idea how much it means to me and to my bank," the singer said, pausing as she became emotional.

"And to my band and to my crew and everybody who has put so much into this tour ... and I don't even know what I'm saying, I'm just having a bit of a moment, sorry," Swift admitted to the audience, brushing her cheeks with her hands.

"That was, uh, I'm just having a bit of a moment. Sorry," she continued before expressing her "love" for Toronto.

In an earlier episode of Travis and his brother, Jason Kelce's "New Heights" podcast, the Chiefs tight end gushed about his year-long romance with the "Blank Space" hitmaker, insisting that they're "absolutely happy" together despite recent rumors suggesting they were breaking up.

The brothers had Travis' "Grotesquerie" co-star, Niecy Nash, as a guest, who claimed that people would "text [her] about Travis" after they began working together.

"They started off saying, 'We're watching [the show]. Is he the killer?'" she said, per Page Six. "Just to get [me] on the line texting them."

"Then they're like, 'Well, what do you know about his relationship?'" Nash continued. "I'm like, 'Get out of that man's business.'"

Nash's jokes got the football star laughing as she went on to describe herself as a "vault" and promised "nosy" people "aren't getting nothing out of" her.

Travis then replied, "I appreciate you. Every time someone has a mic in front of you and asks you something like that, thank you for always showing love."

He added, "You know it's real. And you know that me and Tay are absolutely happy, and I appreciate you always making sure everybody knows that."
