The NFL star, Travis Kelce and his girlfriend, the global pop star and billionaire, Taylor Swift have become “punchlines” for a comic on Netflix’s Torching 2024: A Roast of a Year. Famous comic Hannah Berner joked about how the NFL star and tight end of the Kansas City Chiefs, Travis Kelce, has become popular with women due to Taylor Swift and not a lot of fans liked it.
Comedian “Jokes” About Travis Kelce’s Increased Popularity Is The Result Of His Relationship With Taylor Swift
Hannah Berner said, “Who knew, besides Travis Kelce, that you could become so popular with women by shooting loads into a billionaire?” The moment she said it in front of her live audience, her audience gasped since no one expected a joke like this.
Many fans have spoken up about how such a joke was “inappropriate”, while many feel this is what a roast means. A fan wrote on X, “Hannah Berner rocks. Y’all need to relax. It’s comedy. You know, entertainment. Breathe.”, another fan wrote, “Hannah Berner. She’s funny sometimes.”
Neither Travis nor Taylor has made any public statements regarding Hannah’s “inappropriate” joke on their relationship. But this is actually not the first time that Travis has been accused of gaining popularity solely due to his high profile relationship with the billionaire pop star Taylor Swift.
While Travis’ net worth is much less than Taylor’s, he has constantly been in the news due to his relationship. Recently, the 2024 NFL Pro Bowl was held and Travis received the maximum number of votes. This sparked outrage amongst fans as many believed it was Taylor Swift’s fans who voted for Travis and made him win the 2024 NFL Pro Bowl since Travis performed pretty poorly this season.
Other players including Josh Allen, and Jahmyr Gibbs did not receive as many votes as Travis and were much behind him.
Travis Kelce’s Colleague Heidi Gardner Has Supported Him
However, Travis’ friends have come out in support of him. Recently, his Saturday Night Live colleague, Heidi Gardner was asked if Taylor’s influence had to do anything with what Travis has achieved. Heidi slammed such questions and spoke about how Travis had enough talent on his own to achieve greater things in life and Taylor’s wealth and fame had nothing to do with it.
Travis is currently taking a break from the NFL and will be skipping the game against the Denver Broncos on 5th January. He will be back when his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, enters into the playoffs.
For his break, he has flown to New York City to be with his girlfriend, Taylor Swift and together they have been spotted out and about in the city, walking hand in hand. Their looks have been talked about quite a lot as they have turned quite a few heads in New York City.
