Watch: Nikki Glaser Reveals What She Almost Stole From Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce’s Wedding
Nikki Glaser nearly underestimated just who she was stealing from.
The comedian proved it was the best of times, the worst of crimes at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s July 3 wedding, as she gave all the bejeweled details while onstage at her residency at Caesars Palace Las Vegas—including what she almost stole from the big event at Madison Square Garden in New York.
“I got really close to just stealing something from it because I was like, ‘I want one cool artifact from this,'” Glaser shared during her comedy routine, per audio obtained by E! News. “So, it was late in the night, and everyone’s kind of drunk, dancing on the dance floor, and I’m back by the cake vaping.”
“I am watching the dancing,” she continued. “It’s like Mark Zuckerberg doing the robot, which is just him standing. Jelly Roll is doing the worm—or having a heart attack.”
And that’s when Glaser joked that she got a little overcome by her good ideas and power moves.
“I look up at the cake, and on the top tier where the two little cake toppers are, it’s just Travis. Taylor’s missing, and I’m like, ‘Someone already took Taylor, I’m taking Travis.’ This is the perfect thing to get,” the 42-year-old recalled. “And there’s no cameras, no one has phones, so I was like, ‘No one will know it’s me.'”
No body, no crime, right? But the Bangin’ star found stealing other people’s toys on the playground won’t make you many friends.
“So I reach up, I get it. I’m two seconds from putting it in my purse,” she recounted. “It’s almost in there, and then I hear Tom Cruise be like, ‘Put me down,’ and I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh!'”

But antics aside, Glaser—a longtime Swiftie who spent about $100,000 attending 22 Eras Tour shows—thought it was unbelievable she was even invited to Swift and Kelce’s nuptials to begin with.
“I got the text inviting me to the wedding,” Glaser said. “I never thought in a million years I’d get invited. I don’t even know them, but I got invited, and I’m like shaking as I’m opening it.”
“I am in there for 12 hours, and none of my family or friends know where I am,” she continued. “I’m just off the grid for 12 hours. They’re texting me. My location’s off. They all thought I killed myself because I wasn’t invited, but I was actually inside, and I have nothing to show for it, because I had to turn in my phone.”

But the high-security event also meant that a lot of the A-list guests didn’t get a plus one, including Jennifer Lopez.
“It was interesting because some of these celebrities were alone, and these people are never alone,” she joked. “But like J.Lo was alone. J.Lo was kind of like a wallflower, like alone, awkward. And J.Lo’s never alone—I mean, she is in her heart.”
So, Glaser explained that the pair went to the bathroom together.
“We were like pals all night. I got to show her how a public restroom works. That was really cool for her. She was confused by the toilet seat,” she quipped. “I wiped her. I mean, I did keep that toilet paper, that was my something brown. No, I didn’t wipe J.Lo—she made me put water in my mouth and bidet her down.”
Someone play “Clean” by Taylor Swift.
