Travis Kelce Says Taylor Swift Visited Him on ‘Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?’: ‘Love’ Her Support
Always there for each other! Travis Kelce revealed Taylor Swift visited him while he was shooting his hosting gig for the new game show Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?
“Taylor was there and obviously I always love having Taylor’s support,” Travis, 35, told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday, October 9.
The NFL star said hosting the show that tests celebrities and contestants with questions from elementary school curriculums was the ultimate way to spend his offseason, aside from attending several of Taylor’s Eras tour European concert dates.

The first three episodes of Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? drop on October 16 on Prime Video with new episodes airing in the weekly after that.
Travis’ revelation that Taylor, 34, was on set with him as he filmed the game show comes after the “Lavender Haze” singer shared that he gave her similar support while she shot and directed her music video for “Fortnight.”
“The thing is that this video seems very sad when you watch it, but it actually was like the most fun video to make… I would always just hear like someone like cheering and, like, ‘Woooo,’ like, from across the studio where we were shooting it. And that one person was my boyfriend Travis,” Taylor gushed while accepting the Artist of the Year honor at the MTV Video Music Awards on September 11.
