Travis Kelce smiles when asked about the most famous contact on his phone refuses to give an easy answer
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been dating pop star Taylor Swift for the past few months, but the NFL star has revealed the most famous contact in his phone is Justin Timberlake
Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce has revealed the most famous person in his phone contacts – and it’s not his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
The pair have been dating for a few months, with rumours starting back in September.
Swift has been spotted at nine Chiefs games during the 2023 NFL regular season, where the team had a 6-3 record when she was presentIn a recent TikTok video, Kelce was asked to name the most famous contact in his phone, but chose to avoid the “easy answer”, which was implied to be Swift.
“Man, the easy answer? You guys know the easy answer,” he joked, before responding: “JT – Justin Timberlake. JT baby, he’s the realest.”
When asked if he could call Timberlake and get an answer, Kelce replied: “No, not a chance,” adding, “I appreciate you, Justin, but I know. He’s a busy man!”
Despite being pals with Kelce, Hollywood star Justin Timberlake is a known supporter of the Green Bay Packers. He revealed in a 2017 interview that his love for the Packers began because of their former quarterback Brett Favre, who, like Timberlake, hails from Mississippi.
“At that time, Brett Favre was the king of the south,” Timberlake told NFL Network in October 2017, via USA Today. “Being where I was from, when he went to Green Bay, that’s when a lot of us in our hometown shifted to be Packers fans.
“Also, you’ve got to respect a team that the city owns. I don’t care who you love, if you get a chance to go to Lambeau and watch a game, you’ve got to do it.”
Kelce and his team, the Chiefs, are gearing up for the Wild Card round of the playoffs against the Miami Dolphins this Saturday. Both teams ended the regular season with an 11-6 record in the AFC and will clash at Arrowhead Stadium for a spot in the Divisional round.
It’s unclear whether Taylor Swift will be there to cheer on Kelce and the Chiefs. The pop star wasn’t present at SoFi Stadium last Sunday when the Chiefs played the LA Chargers. Kelce sat out the game to avoid injury while Swift attended the Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles
