Taylor Swift<\/strong><\/a> is revealing what Travis Kelce<\/strong><\/a> said to her before proposing in August.<\/p>\n The Grammy winner, 35, joined host Jimmy Fallon<\/strong> during the Monday, October 6, episode of The Tonight Show, <\/a>stepping onstage in a metallic sequined minidress and sparkly platform heels. She briefly spoke about her brand-new album, The Life of a Showgirl, before Fallon, 51, congratulated the pop star on her recent engagement to Travis Kelce<\/strong> after two years of dating.<\/p>\n “Taylor, that is insanity,” Fallon said, admiring the massive diamond ring<\/a> that Kelce, 36, slipped on Swift’s finger.<\/p>\n “It’s crazy,” she said of her ring, explaining that Kelce “had it for a really long time before he gave it to me, too.”<\/p>\n Taylor Swift Says Travis Kelce \u2018Crushed It\u2019 With His Surprise Proposal: \u201910 Out of 10\u2032<\/a><\/p>\n Swift confessed that she looks at the ring “constantly. Like, it doesn’t feel in any way normal for me. I’m just sort of like, ‘Oh, man!'”<\/p>\n She sang her fianc\u00e9’s praises, gushing, “He’s just my favorite person I’ve ever met \u2014 no offense to everyone else. But the fact that this is the person that I get to hang out with every day forever … that’s the whole thing of it. You look at [the ring] and you’re like, ‘I get to hang out with him forever,’ and this represents that.”<\/p>\n Taylor Swift and Jimmy Fallon<\/span> Courtesy of NBC<\/span><\/p>\n When Fallon mentioned the timing of the proposal \u2014 how Swift and Kelce got engaged soon after she recorded an episode of the NFL star’s “New Heights<\/a>” podcast \u2014 Swift replied, “I think, for Travis, the podcast was just sort a distraction, sort of ruse, to keep me not looking out the windows of the house.”<\/p>\n She explained, “Every time he does the podcast, it’s not like he blacks out all the windows.”<\/p>\n Taylor Swift\u2019s Song Lyrics Decoded: Celebs Featured in Her Songs \u2014 Including \u2018Life of a Showgirl\u2019 Tracks<\/a><\/p>\n However, ahead of Kelce popping the question in a lavishly decorated backyard setting<\/a>, Swift recalled there were “fully, like, blackout drapes on every single window of the whole house.”<\/p>\n By then, “I kinda realized that he’s walking around sorta nervous about the podcast, [saying], ‘My heart is racing. … I know how much this means to you. I just really want this to be what you’d hoped it would be.’ Because we’d been talking about doing the podcast and announcing the album. And he’s like, ‘My heart’s just racing.’ I’ve never seen this dude nervous. Ever. He’s professionally not a nervous person.”<\/p>\n Swift recalled Kelce asking, “Do you wanna go and just walk around the backyard and have a glass of wine?” She responded, “I’m always gonna wanna do that.”<\/p>\n At that moment she realized “why all the windows were curtained and why he was nervous,” she said. “It was the best possible-case scenario.”<\/p>\n Taylor Swift Casually Calls Travis Kelce \u2018My Fiance\u2019 on \u2018The Graham Norton Show\u2019<\/a><\/p>\n During a funny segment where Fallon asked Swift to confirm the veracity of several recent rumors, Swift revealed that her close friend Ed Sheeran<\/strong> learned about her engagement via Instagram.<\/p>\n “That’s so true,” Swift responded, laughing and covering her face with her hands. She added, “I have a perfect explanation! … He doesn’t have a phone.” She said that’s “one thing I love about him. It’s very eccentric. Love it. But when I’m going through [my contacts, deciding] who we should call, who we should FaceTime, I’m going through my texts and being, like, ‘Who have I texted within the last month of my life?’ And he just wasn’t there.”<\/p>\n Swift called Sheeran, 34, one of her “favorite people on the planet” and “like family,” and when “the news came out, I was like, ‘Oh my God, we forgot to call Ed!'”<\/p>\n Swift\u2019s Tonight Show appearance on Monday was the latest in a long string of visits to the NBC late-night program throughout her career.
