Travis Kelce has named his ideal guest for his new television show ‘Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity’ – and it would not be his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Speaking to Associated Press, the three-time Super Bowl winner opted for his older brother Jason instead of the singer as the person he’d like to have on his new series the most.
‘My brother Jason would absolutely kill it on this show,’ Kelce said. ‘Without a doubt if there’s one person I would recommend for it, it’s definitely Jason.
‘He would have fun and have some creative answers even if he didn’t know the real answer.’
Kelce revealed he has yet to watch any of the shows back yet ahead of the launch on October 16.
‘I’ll definitely watch but I’m actually terrified of watching myself in situations like this but I’ll turn it on to critique myself,’ he said.
‘I’m my own worst critic. I can only see the bad that I do in anything, even on the football field.’
His Kansas City Chiefs team have started the season unbeaten on 5-0 and have a bye week this weekend.
And while Kelce, who turned 35 on Saturday, has been exploring opportunities off the field with acting and presenting, football is still his No 1.
‘I still love coming in to work, getting after it, and chasing championships. That’s what I’ve always dreamt of doing. But in the off-season, I do like to dabble around.
Kelce’s new quiz show sees contestants answer elementary-level questions as celebrities like comedians Ron Funches and Nikki Glaser help with the answer. Guests can win up to $100,000.
‘There’s an astronomy category. I didn’t know anything about that and I still don’t,’ Kelce said. ‘On top of that, I didn’t even know that was taught in elementary school.’
