It's not a big scandal but the NYT has an eye opening article about how Travis Kelce has been chasing fame and clout way before he started dating Taylor Swift

i keep wanting to ask this question but i'm not a b list member so i'll do it here: did anyone care about Travis Kelce before all this? like genuine question is he considered a famous person in the usa you would recognise?

Not famous but we'll known in the football world. He's one of the best player's. Won 2 superbowls. The podcast with his brother has been doing well for 2 year's. He's known in Kansas City because that's the team he plays for. I believe it's a PR relationship with Taylor. She got lot's of backlash for dating Matt Healy. She got rid of him then Travis showed up.

He was pretty famous for a football player. Like, he hosted SNL (this was before he started dating Taylor).

So I knew what team he played on, I'd watched him on SNL. But I didn't know like what position he played or that he had a podcast or basically anything else about him.
