Kelce Catches a New Pass: Tight End Tackles Trivia on "Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?"

Move over, touchdowns, Travis Kelce is in a new game! The Kansas City Chiefs star tight end is trading his cleats for a microphone as the host of the upcoming reboot of "Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?" on Prime Video.

That's right, folks. We're used to seeing Kelce outsmart defenses on the field, but now he'll be testing the trivia knowledge of everyday people against a panel of A-listers.

An exclusive source had some intel to share with Deuxmoi from someone who was on set. Allegedly, the experience wasn’t all fun and games for Travis. The source stated, “Travis was on set for Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?’ and was not loving the jokes about him and Taylor. He was super annoyed with them and was rude to the stage manager.” When Deuxmoi inquired about who exactly was making the jokes, the source responded saying they weren’t sure, but reiterated that he was “not loving it.” In Travis’ defense, the source continued, “I also think he was nervous because he never really hosted before. There might have been some contestants.” “I think he’s getting a lot more Hollywood stuff because of Taylor”, concluded the source. Deuxmoi received confirmation on April 5th that even “Queen Taylor Swift herself was on set today visiting Travis who is hosting.” We love to see them supporting each other in all of their projects!
