    Ice Spice says Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are "probably some of my funniest friends"

    The 25-year-old rapper has formed a close bond with the 35-year-old Grammy winner - who she teamed up with on the Karma remix in 2023, and has attended Kansas City Chiefs tight-end Travis' Super Bowl games with - and she says the "biggest scoop" on the couple is how hilarious and funny they are


    She told Entertainment Tonight: "They're really really funny."

    Ice Spice continued: "They're probably some of my funniest friends.

    "They're funny, you guys. That's the scoop. They're like us."

    Ice Spice previously shared that she considers Taylor to be her "closest celebrity friend".

    The Princess Diana hitmaker was even reduced to tears when she was offered the chance to collaborate with Taylor on Karma.

    The Bronx drill star - whose real name is Isis Gaston - told Rolling Stone magazine in 2024: "I remember my manager called me, and he usually texts, but he called, and he's like, 'You ready for this one?' And I'm thinking it's going to be some bad news or something.

    "He's like, 'Taylor Swift has a record for you to get on from her album.' I'm playing it cool on the phone. I'm like, 'Oh, that's cool. Super cool.' And then I hang up the phone and I'm hysterically crying."

    She revealed that Riot, her long-time producer, actually managed to capture the moment on camera.

    She said: "I'm in my walk-in closet, and I'm like, 'Bro, this is not real life'. Riot definitely filmed it. That'll probably be in a documentary one day."

    Meanwhile, Taylor hailed Ice Spice's business mindset, observing that she takes a keen interest in "the music industry and how it works".

    Taylor explained: "Seeing Ice lean into the strategic, financial and business aspects of her career is really exciting for me.

    "The more artists learn about the inner workings of the music industry, the more power they can have in their creative world. I knew based on the questions she asked and the observations she made that she didn't just want to be a passenger in her own career. She wanted to be the driver of it."
