Travis Kelce, the star NFL tight end and boyfriend of global sensation Taylor Swift, recently found himself in a light-hearted debate over a holiday movie suggestion that could put a playful strain on his relationship.
A Christmas Movie Proposal from Kylie Kelce
During a recent episode of the “New Heights” podcast, Kylie Kelce, the wife of Travis’s fellow NFL player Jason Kelce, called in with a festive idea. She wanted to recommend the classic holiday film “Love Actually” for the brothers to review during the Christmas season. This movie is known to be a favorite of Taylor Swift, adding another layer of intrigue to the conversation.
Kylie enthusiastically pitched, “‘Love Actually’ is a tremendous movie that you can really sit down with your significant others and enjoy because it’s not like one of your significant others hasn’t asked you to watch it multiple times and you said no every time.” Her playful jab seemed to suggest that Jason might have been resistant to watching the film, and she hoped this suggestion would encourage him to finally give it a chance.
Travis’s Reluctance and Jason’s Agreement
As Kylie’s voice filled the airwaves, Travis appeared to be looking up information about the film, perhaps weighing his options. Jason chimed in, expressing a mutual reluctance, “I think we both can probably agree we’re not doing ‘Love Actually.'” To which Travis quickly replied, “Yeah, probably not. I’ll do, like, a really good Christmas movie though.”
Despite Kylie’s insistence that she would join the podcast if they reviewed “Love Actually,” Travis remained noncommittal. He didn’t believe that Kylie’s presence would sway their decision.
Travis’s Witty Comeback
In a humorous moment, Travis exclaimed, “Yeah, don’t f—ing torture me. Torture your husband,” showcasing his playful nature. He clarified that while he had grown to appreciate some of Hugh Grant’s films, he didn’t want to commit to reviewing “Love Actually,” though he didn’t dismiss the idea entirely.
Taylor Swift’s Affection for the Classic
Interestingly, Taylor Swift has publicly expressed her love for “Love Actually.” In a past interview with Teen Vogue, she mentioned the film’s iconic voiceover by Hugh Grant, stating, “If you look around, love actually is all around? That’s my favorite motto.” This sentiment seems to resonate with both Kylie and Jason, who also echoed similar thoughts about a decade later.
Final Agreement on the Movie Review
Despite some initial resistance, Travis and Jason eventually conceded to reviewing “Love Actually,” largely due to pressure from their producer and the fans of their show. However, Jason was adamant about one thing: he did not want to include “Die Hard” as a holiday movie option, firmly declaring it “not a Christmas movie,” highlighting the playful banter that often characterizes their discussions.
As the holiday season approaches, fans can look forward to the Kelce brothers’ take on this beloved classic, even if Travis may still have some reservations about it.
