In 2020, the Chiefs nominated him for the Walter Payton Man of the Year Award.[174] That same year, fans voted him the winner of the NFL's Charity Challenge Award.[175]

In 2015, Kelce created a foundation called Eighty-Seven & Running in his hometown of Cleveland, Ohio, with the goal of "empowering underprivileged youth".[174][176][177] The foundation organizes an annual fundraising event in Kansas City, including an auto show and a fashion show, to raise money for various causes there and in Cleveland.[178] Some of its other activities have included:

Activism

Kelce has been a vocal advocate for social justice. In 2017, he became one of the highest-profile white NFL players to kneel during the national anthem in protest against police brutality, racism, and social inequalities in America.[192][193] After the shooting of Jacob Blake by police officer Rusten Sheskey, Kelce, along with teammate Patrick Mahomes, spoke publicly in support of social justice.[194] He has pledged support for the Black Lives Matter movement[193] including in Kansas City.[195] In 2019, Kelce and other NFL players joined students in virtual class discussions around the U.S. to discuss Black Boys, a Malcolm Jenkins-produced documentary that examines social and emotional effects of racism against Black men.[196]

Kelce has also shown support to the LGBT community.[197] In 2021, he called for more acceptance of homosexuality in American football, saying, "Anybody in this world [can play]."[197]

Entertainment

In January 2016, Kelce starred in the E! Entertainment Television dating show Catching Kelce,[198] choosing Maya Benberry as the winner.[199] In 2020, Kelce appeared as a fictionalized version of himself in the first episode of the comedy series Moonbase 8.[200] Kelce was featured in Kelce, a feature-length documentary about his brother Jason's football career and private life that was released on Amazon Prime on September 11, 2023,[201] Within 24 hours, it was the most-watched movie among U.S. subscribers to the streaming service.[202] In May 2023, he signed with Creative Artists Agency for off-the-field representation while keeping his agent for his NFL representation.[203] Kelce hosted Saturday Night Live on March 4, 2023,[204] and appeared in a sketch with his brother Jason and SNL cast members Heidi Gardner and Chloe Fineman.[205][206] He also made a cameo appearance on the October 14, 2023, episode.[207] In 2024, it was announced that Kelce will host a reboot for the game show Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader? on Amazon Prime Video[165][208] The show will be titled Are You Smarter than a Celebrity? with a 20-episode season.[209]

Vance, and Lesley Manville.[211]

Through his Super Bowl runs with the Chiefs, Kelce became known for reciting the chorus from the Beastie Boys' 1986 song "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!)" during team celebrations, first after the 2019 AFC Championship Game then again at the parade in Kansas City after clinching Super Bowl LIV. The Chiefs responded by making "Fight for Your Right" its touchdown song during games at Arrowhead Stadium.[212][213] In 2023, Kelce performed the song with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show.[214]

Kelce was featured, with his brother Jason, on the cover of "Fairytale of New York" (1987) by the Pogues featuring Kirsty MacColl, titled "Fairytale of Philadelphia", which appeared on the 2023 album A Philly Special Christmas Special;[215] proceeds from the album benefit various charity institutions in Philadelphia. "Fairytale of Philadelphia" topped the US iTunes chart, following which the brothers thanked the Swifties.[216] The song further debuted at number five on the Billboard Digital Song Sales chart and number two on Billboard Rock Digital Song Sales with 6,000 downloads sold in the first week.[217] The song climbed to number one on both charts on its second week of release, making the brothers Billboard-charting artists.[218] In April 2023, Kelce announced the launch of his own annual music festival called Kelce Jam.[219] The first edition of the event, held in Bonner Springs, Kansas during the 2023 NFL draft weekend, featured artists including Machine Gun Kelly, Rick Ross, Loud Luxury and Tech N9ne.[219] The festival sold its first 10,000 tickets in 20 minutes, and was eventually sold out with 18,000 people in attendance.[220] The second edition of the festival in 2024, saw an attendance of 20,000 fans with headlining performances from 2 Chainz, Diplo and Lil Wayne.[211]

New Heights podcast (Since 2022)

In September 2022, Kelce and his brother Jason launched a weekly sports podcast called New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce, produced with Wave Sports + Entertainment.[221] The name is a nod to the brothers' upbringing in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.[222] During the podcast, the brothers discuss NFL news, rumors, and sports headlines as well as each other's games.[223] New Heights features special guests including NFL players, celebrities, and members of their family.[224] The brothers record the podcast before cameras; it is broadcast live on YouTube and released in video and audio forms.[221]

Within weeks of its launch, the podcast was the most-listened-to sports podcast on Spotify and third-most on Apple podcast sports charts.[224] In February 2023, the podcast experienced a rise in popularity when Travis and Jason faced off in Super Bowl LVII,[225] it marked the first time two brothers played against each other.[226] It reached the No. 1 in Apple sports podcasts, No. 2 among all podcasts on Apple, and No. 3 on Spotify in all podcast categories.[222] The podcast is regularly highlighted on Monday Night Football on ESPN and Sunday Night Football on NBC.[224] In 2022, it was named the Sports Podcast of the Year by Sports Illustrated.[227] After the premiere of the second season in September 2023,[228] New Heights became the No. 1 sports podcast in the U.S. and the No. 1 sports podcast globally on Spotify[227] as well as No. 1 among all podcasts on Apple.[229]

In August 2022, Hy-Vee began manufacturing "Kelce's Krunch", a limited-edition frosted cornflakes breakfast cereal named after and endorsed by Kelce.[237] A portion of proceeds from the sale of the cereal was donated to Kelce's charity foundation.[237] In 2023, Business Insider estimated that Kelce makes $5 million a year in off-the-field earnings and stated that "he was one of football's most successful endorsers."[238]

In 2019, Kelce founded his own health brand, Hilo Nutrition, which sells gummy supplements for performance nutrition and other health benefits.[239] In January 2020, Kelce launched his own clothing brand, Tru Kolors.[240] It became the first brand by an NFL player to launch an official merchandise collaboration with an NFL franchise: the Kansas City Chiefs in 2022.[241] In 2021, Kelce released a signature sneaker collection as part of a deal with Nike. The collection was called Nike x Kelce Blazer Mid '77 Vintage and included six shoes that inspired by facets of Kelce's life, including his brand and his team's colors.[242] Kelce is co-owner of a car wash chain named Club Car Wash that operates in 109 locations in eight states in the central U.S.[243] In October 2023, Kelce and Walmart launched Travis Kelce's Kitchen, a line of seven barbecue products inspired by the flavors of Kansas City.[244]

He earned four times his investment when McCormick & Company acquired the brand for $800 million in 2020.[245] Kelce is also an angel investor in several companies, including the tequila brand Casa Azul,[246] the whole-grain pancake and waffle mixes Kodiak Cakes,[247] and the made-to-measure menswear retailer Indochino.[248] In 2023, Kelce joined a group of investors, including actor Ryan Reynolds and teammate Mahomes, to buy a stake in Alpine, a UK-based French Formula One team. The exact amount or stake was not disclosed.[249] In 2024, Kelce teamed up with his brother Jason as significant owners and operators of the light beer company Garage Beer.[250]

Personal life

Kelce's relationship with singer-songwriter Taylor Swift has drawn massive media coverage and stimulated viewership and revenue for his team and its league.

Kelce and Maya Benberry, the winner of his dating show, started dating after the show ended in April 2016.[251] In January 2017, Benberry confirmed that they had broken up.[199] From 2017 to 2022, Kelce was in a relationship with social media influencer Kayla Nicole Brown.[252][253][254][255][256]

Kelce began dating singer-songwriter Taylor Swift in 2023.[257][258] They have been widely referred to as a supercouple; some call them "America's very own royal couple".[259][260][261][262]

Their highly publicized relationship and Swift's attendance at games stimulated interest in the Chiefs and the NFL during the 2023 season. Some NFL games that Swift attended broke viewership, ticket sales, and merchandise sales records:[263] a Chiefs–Chicago Bears game drew the most television viewers of the weekend;[264] a Chiefs–New York Jets game averaged 27 million viewers, making it the most-watched Sunday-night television show since Super Bowl LVII;[265] and a Chiefs–Buffalo Bills game on January 21, 2024, became the most-watched NFL divisional playoff game ever and the most-watched program on any network since Super Bowl LVII.[266] The Chiefs–Baltimore Ravens AFC Conference Championship Game was the most watched AFC Championship game of all time.[267] When the Chiefs advanced to Super Bowl LVIII, some referred to the game as the "Taylor Swift Bowl".[268][269][270][271] One widely cited estimate by a sports marketing company said the Kelce–Swift relationship had so stimulated ticket sales, viewership, and merchandising that the Chiefs franchise had gained $331.4 million in value in six months.[272] In June 2024, Kelce joined Swift onstage at her Eras Tour concert in Wembley Stadium, dancing in a top hat and tails during her performance of "I Can Do It with a Broken Heart".[273]
