Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift have a new fan in Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, with the WWE and Hollywood star speaking out on the love story ahead of the Super Bowl in Las Vegas on Sunday.
The couple’s romance has become a pillar of the NFL season and has one final round of extended excitement before Sunday’s game, where Kelce’s Chiefs meet the San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium.
‘I love it. I don’t have a problem with it, I feel like it’s all part of the game and it’s all the game that we play,’ Johnson told CNN’s Coy Wire, a former player for the Buffalo Bills.
You [Wire] played the game, so you know at this level, all that stuff goes away. You have to strip it all away and you have one intention and one focus and that’s just to ball out and play the game.
‘That’s the beauty of it. Like you got all the bells and the whistles and the cache and the pomp and circumstance and all this awesome hype that happens surrounding this Super Bowl.
‘This is a big one this year. It’s a big one, man, with a lot on the line and legacy on the line.’
The romance has seen Kelce’s fame spiral to another level and his managers, in an interview with The New York Times, said earlier this year that he wants to be more famous than the WWE star.
On Thursday, Kelce even admitted that he will have conversations with Hollywood executives once the football season is over and in the same Times piece from January, his managers said film scripts had been discussed.
