Travis Kelce’s new TV show colleagues aren’t just helping him off the field but also on it amid his new venture.
The Kansas City Chiefs superstar, 34, has been spending time with American actress and television host Niecy Nash while on the set for Ryan Murphy’s new horror show ‘Grotesquerie’, which is expected to premiere in the fall.
But while he may have swapped NFL teammates for Hollywood ones, they’re still trying to find ways to make him look good on the field as well as on the screen.
Nash shared a video to Instagram on Friday asking members of the Grotesquerie team to come up with fresh ideas for touchdown celebrations for the tight end ahead of the 2024 season.
However, Kelce’s favorite was Nash’s ‘Lil’ Kim’ as he told the camera: ‘I can’t even tell you what half of them was called. But I might have to hit the Lil’ Kim.’
Nash captioned her post: ‘Don’t be fooled by the video…. We are working hard for @ryanmurphyproductions In between shots is another story. @killatrav our crew has got your back!’
‘Im goin to be showing out this year!!’ Kelce added in the comments.
Kelce is giving Hollywood a go while girlfriend Taylor Swift continues the four-month European leg of her Eras Tour over in Paris.
Earlier this week Nash, who won an Emmy for her role in Murphy’s 2023 show ‘Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story’, revealed she had began filming with the athlete.
‘Guys, guess who I am working with on Grotesquerie?’ she teased, before Kelce proclaimed, ‘Jumping into new territory with Niecy!’
In more behind-the-scenes footage from Nash he also joked about throwing himself into the acting business, laughing: ‘I’m just glad I didn’t hurt nobody!’
Kelce made his acting debut when he hosted Saturday Night Live in March 2023.
He also made a cameo on the sketch comedy show that October alongside Swift.
The Kansas City tight end has ambitions to be as famous as Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and has hired five agents in a bid to boost his career and make himself a movie star, his managers revealed earlier this year.
