Kylie Kelce has continued to show support for Taylor Swift, as she recently praised the singer’s “incredible” work ethic.
Actress Kate Hudson appeared on the Thursday, March 6, episode of the 32-year-old media personality’s Not Gonna Lie podcast, and the two women discussed the hard work it takes to reach such a high level of stardom.
Hudson, 45, recounted to Kylie — wife of retired Philadelphia Eagles player Jason Kelce — how she, as an actress, and Beyoncé, as a singer, rose to fame around the same time in the early 2000s.

“She’s worked so hard. She works so hard,” the How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days actress noted about Beyoncé.
Hudson then compared the “Crazy in Love” singer to Swift.
“As you know, with Taylor, this doesn’t just come,” she told Kylie. “It comes with real attention to detail and care and real hard work.”
The mom of three chimed in, “Yes, the drive is incredible. To be able to witness it all is very cool.”
Kylie’s brother-in-law, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, is currently in a relationship with the 14-time Grammy Award winner. The duo began dating in 2023 and have been going strong ever since.
Last month, Kylie, who is nine months pregnant with her fourth child, raved about the “Cruel Summer” singer’s homemade pancakes on her podcast, which she had tried during a couples weekend. She noted she suffered from pregnancy-related nausea that weekend, so she couldn’t try everything during her double date dinner with Swift and the Kelce brothers.
“The weekend that we were together — where I was unable to stomach the dinner home-cooked meal — I did get a chance to try I believe they were confetti, like, funfetti pancakes,” she recalled. “Regardless, they hit. They were so good [the] baby liked them. I loved them.”

Additionally, after Swift, 35, was booed by the crowd at the 2025 Super Bowl (during which the Chiefs lost to the Eagles 40-22) Kylie liked an Instagram post by Sports Illustrated with a quote written by sportscaster Erin Andrews, condemning the boos.
The quote read, “I feel bad for the most famous amazing woman in the world who gets f***ing gets booed at the Super Bowl. Get out of here. She holds — I mean, she probably holds the record in every stadium — the attendance record in the [New Orleans] Superdome as an individual, as one individual standing up on that stage rocking the world.”
