Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce is taking his new life in stride—being Taylor Swift’s arm candy doesn’t bother him at all. In a recent interview on CBS Mornings, Kelce shared his laid-back attitude toward the increased attention. “It’s the life I chose, I guess. I have fun with it,” he said with a smile.
While Kelce is no stranger to the spotlight as a star NFL player, his family has also had to adjust to the extra attention. “Everyone’s loving it. Mama Kelce is having so much fun,” he shared, adding that his father is “slowly getting more comfortable with it.” His brother, retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, 36, is no stranger to the public eye either, and Travis says he’s always been a pro at handling fame.
And what about Taylor’s music? Kelce gave fans a glimpse into his supportive side, revealing that he loves all of her songs and even sings along during her Eras Tour stops. “They’re all my favorite,” he said.
The interview was filmed on the set of his Pepsi commercial, a revamped version of the brand’s 2004 Gladiator-themed ad, which originally featured Britney Spears, Beyoncé, Pink, and Enrique Iglesias.
