Fact Check: Did The Recent Episode Of Jeopardy Insult Travis Kelce? Everything You Need To Know

Dating a superstar is not an easy task. Apart from the stardom, there are so many things that can disrupt the smooth functioning of the relationship.

Well, this is exactly the case with Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. Since the time the duo has made their romantic interest for each other known, the hype surrounding them has been shooting through the roof.

The paparazzi and the media outlets have been running all day to get some fresh angles from the power couple. Recently, a famous show, Jeopardy, had a question that allegedly threw shade on Travis Kelce’s credibility.

What Happened On Jeopardy? 

Jeopardy has been one of the longest running trivia shows on American television. In their November 6 episode on Wednesday, one of the incidents left a sour taste in the minds of Travis Kelce’s fans. Playing for prize money of $200, the question was clubbed under the category, ‘The TV Show in Question.’ Soon after the question was revealed, the NFL fans took an immediate dislike for the show.

As a matter of fact, the letters that appeared on the screen read, “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? is hosted by this man who’s maybe more famous as a BF than a 3-time Super Bowl champ.” Seizing the opportunity, contestant Derek Hieronymus instantly pressed the buzzer and gave the correct answer- Travis Kelce. Now, it is true that Taylor Swift has a more expansive fanbase than Kelce. However, that is not an indication that Kelce is famous only because of his relationship with Swift.

For the record, Travis Kelce has won the Super Bowl thrice. Emerging as one of the strongest backbones of the Kansas City Chiefs, Kelce is now an NFL star. Plus, he also has his wings expanded outside of the gridiron. Apart from hosting a popular game show, the NFL tight end also co-hosts the ‘New Heights’ podcast with his brother. Add to that Travis’ tryst with the entertainment realm, starring in Ryan Murphy’s ‘Grotesquerie.’ However, this is not the only controversy that Travis Kelce was a part of in recent times.

Why Did Travis Kelce Not Attend Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour In Miami?

Travis Kelce missed his girlfriend’s super performance due to his NFL commitments. At that time, the Kansas City Chiefs were scheduled to face the 49ers on October 20. This was a Super Bowl rematch, and thus, Kelce and his team had to be razor-focused. However, in his absence, Travis’ brother Jason, his wife, Kylie, and their mother, Donna, all attended the concert. Thus, despite the digs and rumors going around, the duo of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce seems to be unfazed by the unnecessary noises.
