Travis Kelce recently revealed who his top choice is for a guest on his upcoming television show ‘Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity’ – and surprisingly, it’s not his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
In an interview with the Associated Press, the three-time Super Bowl champion expressed that he would prefer his older brother Jason to appear on the show rather than the pop superstar.
‘My brother Jason would absolutely dominate this show,’ Kelce shared. ‘Without a doubt, if there’s one person I would pick, it’s definitely Jason.’
‘He’d bring his A-game and deliver some really creative answers even if he didn’t get the exact right ones.’
Kelce also mentioned that he hasn’t had a chance to watch any episodes yet, with the official launch scheduled for October 16.

Kelce’s new series is set to premiere on Amazon Prime next week, on October 16.
‘I’ll definitely tune in, but I’m honestly a bit scared to watch myself in these scenarios. Still, I’ll give it a shot to critique my performance,’ he admitted.
‘I’m my toughest critic. I tend to focus on my mistakes in anything I do, even on the football field.’
This season, his Kansas City Chiefs are off to a strong start with an unbeaten record of 5-0 and have a bye week coming up.
Though Kelce, who turned 35 on Saturday, is dabbling in opportunities outside of football, such as acting and hosting, he remains passionate about the game.
‘I still enjoy coming to work, pushing myself, and striving for championships. That’s always been my dream. But during the off-season, I do like to explore other interests.’
The format of Kelce’s new quiz show allows contestants to answer elementary-level questions with the assistance of celebrities like comedians Ron Funches and Nikki Glaser. Contestants have the chance to win up to $100,000.
‘There’s an astronomy category. I didn’t know much about that, and truth be told, I still don’t,’ Kelce confessed. ‘I had no idea that was even part of the elementary school curriculum.’
