Jason Kelce, who was recently crowned as one of the sexiest men alive, expresses amusement and confusion about the honor. In a lighthearted interview with 94 WIP Sportsradio on November 8, the 36-year-old jokingly denies deserving the title, humbly noting that he is not even the most attractive man in his own family. He playfully questions the significance of being labeled the sexiest man alive.
Philadelphia Eagles' center, Kelce, discovered his nomination as a finalist in People's yearly Sexiest Man Alive edition on November 8th. He expressed amusement upon learning about his inclusion, stating that it was entertaining and quite enjoyable.
Kelce also commented on the matter in a tweet on Tuesday, November 7, stating, "Beauty is subjective."
During his radio interview, Jason suggested that the attention surrounding the Kelce family has escalated significantly ever since his younger brother, Travis Kelce, began dating Taylor Swift. (Travis, 34, was not included in the main list of the sexiest men alive but was featured in a separate compilation of the "Sexiest Swifties of the Year.")
Jason recently acknowledged that things changed rapidly after Swift, 33, attended one of Travis' Kansas City Chiefs games in September. He explained to NBC Sports that the current level of attention surrounding his brother's relationship is both positive and overwhelming. While he is happy for his brother and recognizes the genuine connection, he also notes that the immense public interest has elevated Travis to a level of stardom usually not experienced by football players, due to Swift's worldwide popularity.
“There are occasional concerns about how excessively people can pursue things,” Jason stated, expressing his sincere happiness for Travis. "In general, he can handle some of this. As long as it doesn't become a danger to his well-being and other aspects."
Swift is currently preparing for the South American portion of her groundbreaking Eras Tour, and fans are eagerly anticipating whether Travis will accompany her to any of the performances. Travis, on the other hand, remained elusive during the Wednesday episode of his "New Heights" podcast when Jason inquired about his upcoming travel plans "to someplace south."
“Closer to the equator,” Travis quipped.
