Travis Kelce enjoys new role as game show host

Travis Kelce has revealed he is “enjoying” his new role as host of the Amazon Prime game show. Are you smarter than a celebrity?

In an interview with ExtraThe 36-year-old athlete, who is currently dating pop star Taylor Swift, said he found success as a host because of his love of the game show format.

“I’ll tell you what, I enjoyed game shows as a kid, so maybe this is the way to go. I’m enjoying it today,” Travis said.

The NFL Kansas City Chiefs player explained: “When I was a kid, I literally played hooky right from school on. It’s fun for me, and in fact, I enjoy doing it today.

“I would say the STEM fields, the sciences, the math and things like that are kind of my area and I’m staying there. But when I ask questions about history, I’m like, ‘I don’t know if anyone knows.’ “And in fact, everyone does that except me,” he added.

Travis believes his brother Jason Kelce would do well as a contestant on the game show.

“He was very hardworking. He was an honors student, he did well in exams and all that and everything,” he said.

“He chose to be in all the advanced classes. I thought that was too much homework for me! But yeah, Jason, I think he’d do pretty well. I’d be interested to hear him talk about it when he sees it,” Travis added.
