Jason Kelce teased there was one person who wasn’t surprised by his appearance on this year’s list of sexiest men: his wife, Kylie Kelce.
Jason, aged 36, was questioned about his selection as a finalist in People's annual Sexiest Man Alive feature during his appearance on Prime Video's Thursday Night Football broadcast on November 9. The panelists playfully expressed their surprise at Jason finding the time to join them, now that he is counted among the prestigious ranks of A-listers such as Patrick Dempsey, Pedro Pascal, and Timothée Chalamet on the renowned list.
Jason responded, saying, "Honestly, I am not sure how this all came about. But to me, it's just another ordinary day. My wife always insists that I am the sexiest man in the world. So, I have been curious as to why it took so long for this recognition to come my way."
Jason jokingly commented on his eventful week, describing it as enjoyable. He emphasized the significance of representation and considered it a victory for larger, bearded men. On the other hand, Kylie, 31, has not directly responded to her husband's nomination, which gained attention on November 8th. Earlier on 94 WIP Sportsradio, Jason admitted his uncertainty about fitting in with Hollywood's attractive leading men.
"I'm nowhere near being the sexiest man in my own family, let alone being considered the sexiest man alive! Seriously, what are we even discussing?" he playfully quipped on Wednesday.
The magazine also acknowledged Jason's younger brother, Travis Kelce, who made it onto the "Sexiest Swifties of the Year" list alongside Channing Tatum and Taylor Lautner.
Travis, who is 34 years old, has been romantically linked to Taylor Swift since September. As their relationship blossoms, the entire Kelce family is experiencing newfound fame. Both of Travis' parents, Ed and Donna Kelce, have been seen spending time with Swift, 33, at Kansas City Chiefs games. However, his siblings Jason and Kylie have yet to meet the famous pop star.
"When they meet Swift, they'll be ecstatic, no doubt," Ed shared with Entertainment Tonight last month. He anticipates that his daughters Wyatt (4), Elliotte (2), and Bennett (8 months) will have an excited and positive reaction to meeting Swift.
Both Travis and Jason are currently on bye weeks in the NFL. When they return to the field on November 20, they will be facing each other. Travis plays as a tight end for the Chiefs, while Jason plays as a center for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Donna previously suggested that Kylie will not be seen in the VIP box at Arrowhead Stadium during the family game. "I understand if she doesn't want to be in the suite, I wouldn't either," Donna expressed on the "Got It From My Momma" podcast back in October. "She might prefer to be near the field, cheering for the Eagles, because everyone else will be rooting for the Chiefs."
