Travis Kelce has a golden rule when it comes to taking photos with the ladies – no touching! The Kansas City Chiefs tight end kept his hands hovering respectfully when posing with two female contestants on Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?, according to Vanderpump Rules star Lala Kent.
During her recent podcast, Give Them Lala, Kent shared a behind-the-scenes scoop on her experience with Kelce while filming for the Prime Video game show.
Kent, who was pregnant at the time, couldn’t help but admire Kelce’s chivalrous approach as he stood for a group photo. “I believe he had two girls on each side, and he did not touch! He hovered, which I thought was very, very sweet,” Kent recounted, clearly impressed.
But it wasn’t all hands-off for the NFL star – when he posed with Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Garcelle Beauvais and comedian Natasha Leggero, he didn’t hold back on shoulder contact, adding a hint of playfulness to the set.
Taylor’s surprise visit
But the biggest surprise was waiting in the trailer!Taylor Swift, Kelce’s girlfriend of 15 months, was spotted “just visiting” during the shoot. Kent’s assistant and podcast co-host, Jessica Walter, revealed that Swift had parked her black SUV near Kent’s trailer.
“We started hearing whispers on set… it was our girl Taylor Swift in Travis’ trailer,” Walter dished. “They were gonna have lunch together… and probably more,” Kent laughed, adding to the lighthearted gossip.
Kelce, rumored to be earning a $1.8 million paycheck for two seasons of the trivia game show, proved to be an absolute natural, Kent gushed. “He was absolutely hysterical, even without a teleprompter,” she said, praising his charisma and humor. “You can tell he’s genuinely fun, and his vibe with Taylor is just all about having a good time.”
Kelce, Taylor, and Lala are very busy folks
Kelce is set to lead the Chiefsin their upcoming face-off against the Denver Broncos at Arrowhead Stadium, while Swift gears up for her Eras Tour in Toronto.
For Kent, the show appearance was a refreshing change from the usual drama of realityTV, celebrating six years of sobriety and focusing on family. But for now, she’s riding high on her hilarious time with Kelce – and a little Swift surprise thrown in for good measure!
