The reviews have come in and Travis Kelce’s performance as a game show host have been stellar.
Kelce has been recording episodes for Amazon’s reboot of the show ‘Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity’.
Actress Garcelle Beauvais was one of the guests on the show and exclusively told ET about her experience with the Chiefs tight end as a host.
‘He was great, can I tell you? He was fantastic,’ she said.
‘Like, game show host, I wasn’t sure, but he didn’t overdo it. He didn’t undersell it. He was himself. He was fun, and it was great.

‘I realized I’m not that smart when it comes to certain things. Like, Are you smarter than a fifth grader? I’m not.’
When asked about how his swaggering persona translated to his hosting duties, Beauvais said he was ‘great’.
‘Listen, my glam team was like, Oh, my God, he’s fine. Everybody on set was like, He’s so fine. I don’t want the Swifties coming after me though.’
Beauvais revealed that Swift did in fact, ‘come on set. Not the day that I was there, but she came. Yeah. I think it’s really sweet.’
It’s not exactly clear when Swift was taking time out of her busy schedule to watch her man strut his stuff around a studio. She’s in the middle of her widely acclaimed Eras Tour – with the European leg of shows about to come to an end.
But after taking about two months off, she’ll re-start the tour back in North America in October with three-night shows in Miami, New Orleans, and Indianapolis before a six-nighter in Toronto and wrapping it up in Vancouver.
As for Kelce, when he’s not hosting game shows, he’s been preparing for the upcoming NFL season.
The regular season for the Chiefs starts on Thursday, September 5 when they take on the Baltimore Ravens at home at Arrowhead Stadium.
