Travis Kelce Couldn’t Answer This Taylor Swift Trivia in a Hilarious Moment on ‘Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?’

NFL star Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs' tight end and resident quiz show host, is confidently reading off a math question on his show "Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity??" The cameras are rolling, the guests are waiting, and Travis is absolutely in his element. But then, out of nowhere, a sneaky Taylor Swift reference catches him completely off guard—and the result is a hilarious moment that has everyone talking.

Travis Kelce is no stranger to pressure. Catching a ball mid-air while dodging a linebacker? Easy. Breaking down defenses on the field? A regular Sunday. But reading a Taylor Swift-inspired math question? Now that’s a curveball.

As he began the question, everything seemed normal: “Nicole has 98 beads to make six friendship bracelets. If each bracelet has an equal number of beads, what is the fewest number of leftover beads she can have?”
Now, for Swifties, this is no ordinary math problem. It’s a nod to the iconic friendship bracelets Taylor Swift fans exchange at her concerts. The crowd knew it, Kelce knew it, and one guest on the show decided to call him out.

Enter Vanderpump Rules star Lala Kent, who couldn’t resist poking fun at Kelce’s connection to Swift. With a sly smile, she asked, “Travis, do you know anyone who likes friendship bracelets like that?”

Cue the laughter. The normally unflappable Kelce paused for a moment, probably thinking of all the Swifties he’s encountered since his romance with Taylor went public. But, of course, this is Travis Kelce we’re talking about—he’s always ready with a smooth comeback.
“I know a few,” he replied with a grin. “Might have converted them into Chiefs fans. I don’t know. We’ll see.” Crisis averted, and the audience loved it.
It’s not just his quick wit and hosting chops that have people raving about Kelce. Lala Kent later shared on her podcast Give Them Lala that the NFL star is as charming off-camera as he is on-screen. “He’s just a gentleman,” she said, praising how kind and respectful he was, especially with female guests.
While the quiz show antics are entertaining, Kelce’s main focus is football. The Chiefs are gearing up for a massive Super Bowl showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles, aiming for a historic three-peat. But even with the pressure of making NFL history, Kelce still finds time to keep fans laughing, whether through a tricky math question or a well-timed Taylor Swift joke.
From the football field to the TV screen, Travis Kelce knows how to keep people entertained. Whether he’s dodging defenders or navigating Taylor Swift trivia, his charm and humor shine through every time. And let’s face it—Swifties and Chiefs fans alike can’t get enough of him.
