Travis Kelce Suggests Taylor Swift Is His Favorite Blonde Singer: ‘I Agree’

Travis Kelce and the “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity” panel recently had some playful moments connected to Taylor Swift, who, despite not appearing on the show, was definitely a part of the conversation. The episode, which launched on Prime Video on October 15, featured Kelce, aged 35, asking contestants about the stage name of pop icon Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta—an obvious reference to Lady Gaga.

While the audience acknowledged Lady Gaga’s talent, they teased that she’s not the reigning queen of pop, with comedian Natasha Leggero joking about their preference for other blonde artists. The playful ribbing continued as guest stars on the show couldn’t resist making light-hearted jabs at Kelce regarding his relationship with Swift.

Nikki Glaser, a dedicated Swift supporter, jumped in, confirming that Swift’s fanbase was definitely present during the taping. Kelce couldn’t help but agree, laughing along with the panel. Notably, the Kansas City Chiefs star had admired Swift even before their romance blossomed. In a July podcast episode, he expressed disappointment over not being able to meet her after her concert in Kansas City, where he hoped to give her a friendship bracelet with his number.

Their relationship took a public turn in September 2023 when they were spotted together at a Chiefs game, confirming months of private dating. During an interview, Swift emphasized the joy of being open about their relationship and the mutual support they share.

As Kelce transitioned from the football field to hosting duties, reports suggest he is impressing both guests and viewers with his hosting abilities. His summer filming of “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity” included light-hearted teasing about Swift from the lively panel. Ron Funches even noted that there were whispers of a low-key visit from Swift during filming.

For fans eager to see the playful dynamics unfold, new episodes of “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity” are currently available for streaming on Prime Video.
