A 2016 interview featuring Travis Kelce playing 'Kiss, Marry, Kill' has resurfaced online following reports of his wedding to Taylor Swift. The clip, originally from an appearance on AfterBuzz TV to promote his reality dating series Catching Kelce, shows Kelce choosing between Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, and Ariana Grande.
Kelce's Playful Choices
During the game, Kelce initially hesitated, saying he did not want to eliminate any of the three pop stars. After a pause, he decided he would marry Katy Perry, kiss Taylor Swift, and kill Ariana Grande. The exchange was clearly a lighthearted celebrity game, not a serious statement.
The clip first gained renewed attention in 2023 when rumors of Kelce and Swift's relationship emerged. It has resurfaced again after reports that the couple celebrated their wedding in New York. At the time of the interview, Kelce and Swift had never met.
Context of the Interview
Kelce was promoting Catching Kelce, a reality dating show where women from all 50 US states competed to date him. The series aired for one season in 2016, and Kelce ultimately chose Maya Benberry, though the relationship ended months after filming.
Fans have reacted with amusement to the resurfaced clip, noting how Kelce's life has changed dramatically. Social media users joked that his answer 'did not age as expected,' calling it an example of life's unpredictability.
Fan Speculation on Swift's Lyrics
Some fans have also revisited a lyric from Swift's song 'So High School' on The Tortured Poets Department, where she sings, 'Are you gonna marry, kiss or kill me? It's just a game, but really.' While fans speculate the line references Kelce's interview, Swift has never confirmed this connection.
Kelce and Swift publicly confirmed their relationship in 2023 after months of speculation. Since then, they have supported each other's careers, with Swift attending Chiefs games and Kelce joining her during The Eras Tour. Their relationship has become one of the most closely followed celebrity romances in recent years.
The resurfaced interview offers a glimpse into a moment years before their relationship. What was once a routine promotional appearance has taken on new significance, reminding fans of the unpredictable nature of life.
