Latest / gasp! the pod / travis kelce's true WAG: ross travis
Transcript
- 0:00I wouldn't be surprised if we like zoomed in on these like
- 0:03Italy pictures of Travis and Taylor and like Ross is like in
- 0:07the back of the house or like in the window, like being
- 0:10sequestered back there and like probably Carly's back there too.
- 0:23Hey guys, and welcome back to GASP the pod, the podcast for
- 0:28the gays, the girls and especially the gay girls and
- 0:32happy belated and happy belated Valentine's Day to only the
- 0:39gays. That's not true.
- 0:41I'm filming on Valentine's Day right now.
- 0:44You are not seeing this on Valentine's Day, but check out
- 0:47my Valentine's Day nails. So cute.
- 0:51My girlfriend is currently on her way to New York right now,
- 0:55so I'm filming this in haste. Today is a wonderful day, but I
- 1:00do believe that gay couples deserve to celebrate more.
- 1:03I think that Straylove is celebrated all the time, so I
- 1:08feel like y'all are good and I do feel like this is a gay
- 1:10holiday. There's just something about the
- 1:13pink. But Speaking of a wonderful gay
- 1:17couple that's celebrating Valentine's Day today, Travis
- 1:21Kelsey and Ross. Travis, this is a topic that I
- 1:24was debating covering. I've got to be honest, the
- 1:30reason why is because until the Super Bowl, I wasn't sure if
- 1:36Travis and Ross were like, kind of secretly gay or like, full on
- 1:41closeted for like, safety, right?
- 1:44And yeah, I just wasn't sure, especially because like, Ross,
- 1:48like, wasn't really in the public eye and I just didn't
- 1:52want to throw him into this mess.
- 1:54But over and over again, he put himself in it.
- 2:00And they are now claiming this publicly, at least throwing jest
- 2:06at the rumors that they're a cute little couple.
- 2:10So listen, I think they're together.
- 2:12And if not, they're fine. But so to anyone that's going to
- 2:16say you're outing them. Ross would not have posted a
- 2:22story of a gold rose if he didn't think people were going
- 2:25to catch on to this. Therefore, I'm making a podcast
- 2:28episode on it before this happened when they were just
- 2:31like spotted together in hotel rooms.
- 2:33Like I'm not going to not call that gay, but I didn't feel like
- 2:36that warranted a deep dive into their relationship.
- 2:40I do believe we're at that place now, and I think it's because my
- 2:44theory is Travis Kelsey because there's 2 Travis's in these
- 2:48situations. Ross Travis, friend Travis
- 2:52Kelsey, boyfriend of Taylor Swift.
- 2:55I do think that Travis is going to come out once he leaves the
- 3:00NFL, which may be this season. I know you keep hearing me say
- 3:03that about Taylor Swift coming out and Travis Kelce coming out.
- 3:07It's fun to hope and dream. So that's all I'm going to say
- 3:10about that. So that's the topic we're going
- 3:12to do. We're going to do a deep dive in
- 3:14their relationship. We're going to talk about the
- 3:15NFL. We're going to talk about other
- 3:18gay NFL players. Actually, there's just like one.
- 3:22Yeah. But before that happens,
- 3:23obviously, we have to talk about some things.
- 3:26Logistics. OK, Patreon.
- 3:27I know you guys keep hearing me say it.
- 3:29I have a Patreon and love all those people that are joining as
- 3:34free members. However, if you pay a membership
- 3:39fee $5.00 a month you can cancel anytime.
- 3:43You will become a number one Gasper.
- 3:46When you are #1 Gasper you could access to early episodes.
- 3:49And the reason why I'm even talking about this today
- 3:51especially is because I'm going to record a bonus episode this
- 3:55week for my number one Gaspers that will never be published
- 3:59anywhere else. You won't even be getting it
- 4:01early. You will never be able to access
- 4:05this exclusive content unless you become a #1 Gasper.
- 4:09And the reason why it is subscription based,
- 4:13unfortunately is because it takes a lot of money and time to
- 4:17put on a podcast. Also, merch still available.
- 4:22I'm going to link that again, the Patreon and the merch in the
- 4:26notes of this podcast. Also in the link tree of my
- 4:29TikTok and Instagram and also subscribe on YouTube.
- 4:34OK, so as I mentioned about the Patreon, I wanted to shout out a
- 4:38number one Gasper because as you guys know, if you become a
- 4:41number one Gasper, you get shouted out on this podcast for
- 4:45the world to see. So this week I'm going to shout
- 4:47out this username is pretty funny, Terry Jo's brother.
- 4:52Thank you. Terry Jo's brother.
- 4:54Terry Jo, you have an amazing brother.
- 4:56And thank you so much for joining us in #1 Gasper and
- 4:59supporting this podcast. I really appreciate it so much.
- 5:01Also, last week I shouted out someone named Atien and I think
- 5:06their name's actually Adrian. That or that might be someone
- 5:10else. Either way, Atien and or Adrian.
- 5:14Thank you also for being #1 Gaspers.
- 5:17Oh, also sorry, last thing and then I will finally get into
- 5:21this topic. The bonus episode on the
- 5:24Patreon. I'm going to do this recurring
- 5:27type of episode for these bonus episodes on Patreon.
- 5:29It's going to be called Drum roll.
- 5:32Someone do drum roll on the rumor mill and on the rumor
- 5:36mill, I'm going to give you my opinion on the hottest rumors on
- 5:41the town and let you know if I think that they're true or
- 5:43false. For example, we're going to
- 5:45cover Kendall Jenner being bisexual.
- 5:47We are going to cover Sabrina Carpenter PR relationship with
- 5:51Barry Keegan. We're going to cover Jennifer
- 5:53Aniston and Barack Obama. Some of these topics, who knows
- 5:57if I'll get back to them later, but this episode never will be
- 6:01posted anywhere else. Now the housekeeping is over
- 6:04with. Let's get into this topic.
- 6:06We're going to be talking about the Super Bowl, of course, and
- 6:09the gold Rosegate that I'm naming gold Rosegate, the
- 6:12timeline of what we know of their relationship, obviously
- 6:15Travis Kelsey and Ross Travis. Travis Kelsey needing a beard,
- 6:18why he would need a beard, Gay NFL players, how the NFL forces
- 6:23players to be closeted and Travis Kelsey's family and
- 6:27seemingly them acknowledging the fact that Travis Kelce is a gay
- 6:30man. Let's talk about the Super Bowl
- 6:33and gold Rose Gate first. At this point, this is like Kiss
- 6:37Gate in terms of iconic. And I was watching the Super
- 6:41Bowl with my cousin, kind of expecting nothing to come from
- 6:45the Super Bowl this year. Like, I mean, yeah, pretty much
- 6:50nothing. I was like, the Chiefs are going
- 6:52to win. Taylor Swift's not going to play
- 6:54at the halftime show, so what's the fucking point?
- 6:58The Chiefs did not win, thank God.
- 6:59But an unexpected Easter egg from Ross Travis and Travis
- 7:05Kelsey, as you guys have probably seen from this video I
- 7:08made of it that was later banned and then restored.
- 7:12It was originally banned for gender harassment.
- 7:16It's so crazy how like they're twisting the things that
- 7:18happened to us as a queer community and then blaming queer
- 7:21people for just saying gay things as if were the problem
- 7:27and not homophobes. But anyways, that's a
- 7:29conversation for a later day. So Travis Kelsey showed up to
- 7:33the Super Bowl and I honestly am shocked by the amount of people
- 7:37like, not haters. Shockingly, usually I get a lot
- 7:41of hate when I say that someone could be gay.
- 7:44It ruins people. It ruins like, fans, little
- 7:46hearts, straight fans, little straight hearts.
- 7:49But the reactions were like very surprising and positive.
- 7:53Like so many people were like, oh, I've seen Gaylord theories.
- 7:56But this convinced me. I'm going to have to do a deeper
- 7:59look. Are there people being like, oh,
- 8:01I could totally see that. Someone's like this explains
- 8:03everything. And I'm like, thank you.
- 8:06Because it's so important to remember, even if you're not
- 8:09like I'm sure all of you are, or else you wouldn't be watching
- 8:13this podcast. If you're not like really in
- 8:16this type of subculture, I would call it.
- 8:20It's important to remember that celebrities could be gay.
- 8:22And like, you don't have to be a part of, like, the whole culture
- 8:26around, like, queer pop culture to just, you know, imagine that
- 8:31someone could be gay, period. And Travis Kelsey and Taylor
- 8:35Swift kind of have the same situation where, like, they
- 8:38don't look gay to a straight person's eye.
- 8:42So that's why I think people get really confused about the
- 8:44conversation, too. So I was pleasantly surprised at
- 8:46the conversation on the TikTok. So yeah, this is what happened.
- 8:49Travis Kelsey showed up in this, like, 70s suit.
- 8:53Hot take. Are you ready?
- 8:56I kind of liked the suit. I didn't hate the suit.
- 9:00I thought it was very 70s and cool.
- 9:02I'm so sorry if he's a gay man wearing it, If he's a straight
- 9:06man wearing it, I hate it. And that's OK to say.
- 9:08But he showed up in this like, kind of like burnt orange 70s.
- 9:15Some people called it a pimp suit and he was wearing this
- 9:20gold brooch. It was a gold rose brooch.
- 9:24Thought nothing of it. OK, not until I was getting all
- 9:27these comments while watching the Super Bowl being like,
- 9:29please go check out Ross Travis's Instagram story.
- 9:33I ran there Ross Travis watching the Super Bowl and usually, you
- 9:38know, he's always at these games.
- 9:41He in his Instagram story, the one Instagram story he posted of
- 9:45the entire night of the Super Bowl, is just him sitting and on
- 9:51his lap is a gold rose. And it's not like a painted real
- 9:56rose. It's almost like this, like made
- 10:00it looks like fabric or like metal.
- 10:03It's kind of confusing what it looks like, but it's not a real
- 10:06rose. That is something that was
- 10:07crafted or bought with like intentionality.
- 10:10I didn't see anyone else having this rose.
- 10:13No other Chiefs players like family members or friends were
- 10:16holding roses. So what's going on with that?
- 10:19Obviously, we view it to mean that they're signalling to us
- 10:23that they share this special connection.
- 10:26And I do think it's this attempt to like, let the public in on
- 10:32this secret, this open secret. I feel like this is the first
- 10:37time that they're like Easter egging us a little bit and
- 10:40giving us this type of symbolism together.
- 10:44And then later, there's literally a picture of Ross
- 10:47Travis stuffing it in his pants. Moving on, what does a gold rose
- 10:53mean besides the fact that they're both having one or like
- 10:57wearing one at the same game? Besides just that connection,
- 11:01which is inherently queer? No friends are like, hey bro,
- 11:05you should wear a gold rose and I'll hold a gold rose and it'll
- 11:09show our friendship. What is?
- 11:12What could that mean, right, besides gay?
- 11:15Well, on top of that and how gay that is, gold rose actually
- 11:21symbolizes love and gay pride within the gay community,
- 11:24specifically with gay men. There's a historical association
- 11:28of Japanese gay men and roses. And actually the Japanese word
- 11:33for rose is Barra, which is has been reclaimed by the LGBTQ
- 11:38community. Hopefully I can say that, but
- 11:41it's I'm unsure if it used to be just a derogatory word or like a
- 11:46slur. The gold emphasizes the beauty
- 11:49of the Rose symbol and this meaning, and it also signifies a
- 11:53love that stands the test of time.
- 11:54So it turns out there's a very gay meaning for them having
- 11:59these gold roses together. And I do think it means
- 12:02something. The fact that this is perhaps or
- 12:05this was perhaps Travis Kelce's final game in the NFL, a lot of
- 12:09people are saying his contract might not be resigned.
- 12:12And also he's just like old for someone in the league.
- 12:15I think he's 35. Maybe Travis and Taylor can
- 12:18finally be their true selves. And then amidst all of this
- 12:21happening at the game with Ross and Travis, Taylor was
- 12:27continually portraying her music videos in the outfit she was
- 12:31wearing. Jordan initially pointed this
- 12:33out but she had the Haim sisters and I spies there.
- 12:38Which does feel specific because this entire year she didn't
- 12:42really like have them at games. Unless I miss something, it does
- 12:48feel like with Ice Spice she's trying to show like OK Karma.
- 12:51With Heim she's trying to show Bejeweled.
- 12:53And as we all know, at the end of the Bejeweled music video,
- 12:56Taylor Swift ghosts the Prince. So is this her being like, I'm
- 13:01ghosting Travis? Because then again, she left
- 13:04without him and he left without her.
- 13:06It's just weird. Like, you would think that they
- 13:08would have wanted some like, picture of Taylor, like
- 13:11comforting him as they walked out of the stadium.
- 13:13Like, we had that picture before.
- 13:14And even people that don't believe in Gaylord right now are
- 13:17being like, I don't know, I see a breakup coming and it's like,
- 13:20listen, if they were in a real relationship, why would they
- 13:23have broken up because he lost the Super Bowl?
- 13:25That's actually really sad on either way.
- 13:27Like he if he broke up with her just because he was sad about
- 13:31losing the Super Bowl, that's embarrassing.
- 13:33And if she broke up with him because he lost the Super Bowl,
- 13:37that's just mean. So, like, if they were breaking
- 13:40up because of the Super Bowl and they were a straight couple,
- 13:43that's a worse take, I think, than them just being in a PR
- 13:47relationship. And this just, like, shows the,
- 13:50like, there's no need for it anymore because he's done with
- 13:53the NFL and he doesn't need to be closeted if he's out of the
- 13:56NFL. Yeah.
- 13:57I just feel like her bringing Ice Spice really, like, showed
- 14:00karma. And I also think, like, being
- 14:02like, karma's going to come to all of you people.
- 14:04I didn't want to befriend you MAGA people, but I fucking had
- 14:09to. And I'm praying that's the
- 14:11reason that she hangs out with all these MAGA people and not on
- 14:14her own will. I'm going to pray and hope that
- 14:17that's the case because I don't think I'm letting my brain get
- 14:20to the fact that she would just, like, hang out with, like, MAGA
- 14:23supporters for fun. I'm hoping this was, like, a
- 14:27contractually obligated situation.
- 14:30Yeah. And then the final thing, I felt
- 14:31like the blazer that she was wearing, the Super Bowl, really
- 14:34was like, the man a man reference.
- 14:38And her being like, I don't need a man.
- 14:39I am the man. I don't need a rich man.
- 14:41I made a TikTok about this. She's Easter egging about her
- 14:44own work at her boyfriend's game, which shows me that this
- 14:48is work, too. And then this is performance
- 14:51Artler, as we've known. And as we I've stated before, I
- 14:54just really feel like the only way I would forgive Travis for
- 14:58like, his Trump comments about Trump being at the Super Bowl
- 15:02would be if he was gay. Because then that would make
- 15:05sense for like safety if he's just trying to blend in with all
- 15:08the other people and being like, Yep, I'm honored.
- 15:13I want to get into the Tross timeline.
- 15:15The couple name for Travis, Kelsey and Ross Travis is Tross.
- 15:20I'm sure I'm missing little instances.
- 15:22But again, like, there's not a lot of people on the Internet
- 15:26that are doing this that are talking about this.
- 15:28So we can fill in the blanks. This is, you know, the bare
- 15:31minimum. This is like writing the Swift
- 15:33Kron timeline from scratch. Y'all.
- 15:35OK, imagine it's 2012. This is what we're doing right
- 15:40now. Like we are in it.
- 15:42OK? So we're going to try our best
- 15:44and try to figure out what their timeline may have been in this
- 15:49alleged relationship. Gays will never be the
- 15:52allegations that they go after their own twin.
- 15:55First of all, Travis and Ross kind of look alike.
- 16:00Maybe it's just the footballer look.
- 16:02They were both tight ends. That's just ironic and funny.
- 16:05And then they have the same name.
- 16:07Like if Travis takes Ross Travis's last name, he will be
- 16:10Travis Travis. It's so giving Kaler.
- 16:14And it's like, like, I lost my twin.
- 16:16Not a twin from your dreams. It's so gay.
- 16:20So when I looked this up initially, Yahoo Entertainment
- 16:23says quote Travis, Kelsey's close friend and NFL free agent
- 16:27Ross. Travis has become the subject of
- 16:29considerable curiosity amongst fans who wish to learn more
- 16:33about his friendship with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.
- 16:37This curiosity has been brewing for two months, ever since
- 16:40Travis was spotted attending Kelsey's pop star girlfriend
- 16:43Taylor Swift's heirs to her show in Miami.
- 16:46It's just so funny because, like, the only reason people are
- 16:48asking about Ross Travis specifically, not any of his
- 16:51other friends, is because he's hanging out with him all the
- 16:53time. And it's like his plus one to
- 16:56everything. So we're going to have to use
- 16:58our best judgement to try to figure out how this could have
- 17:01all come about, right? Like, what is the timeline with
- 17:05all the beards? What do we think?
- 17:07This is going to be my best guess.
- 17:09So 2013 Travis Kelsey is drafted by the Chiefs, right?
- 17:14In 2015 Ross Travis joins the Chiefs as a free agent which
- 17:19means he was like undrafted I think.
- 17:22I don't know. Ross and Travis then become
- 17:24quote good friends. They also both played as tight
- 17:28ends as we know. And then Ross is released but
- 17:30then resigned apparently. Regardless, they become best
- 17:34buds 2015 and 2017. Is this interesting part of the
- 17:39timeline? OK.
- 17:41This is when they become like, yeah, like, really good friends.
- 17:44So they're spotted hanging out at, like, multiple events like
- 17:49this 2017 celebration of the Chiefs AFC West title.
- 17:53And also, this is not always when Ross Travis is actually
- 17:57playing for the Chiefs. Sometimes he's just, like,
- 17:59accompanying Travis. It's not because he's like on
- 18:02the team, you know, because Ross Travis in 2017 was dropped from
- 18:06the Chiefs, but they remained. I I guess they kept like a
- 18:10quote, strong friendship. They're spotted at all these
- 18:12events. But wait, 2016 is when catching
- 18:17Kelsey premieres? I've never watched it.
- 18:20I do think at some point I'm going to have to bear it and do
- 18:24it. I like, can't imagine that
- 18:26Taylor Swift would ever really date someone who for real did a
- 18:30reality show just centered around them for one season and
- 18:33had all these girls, like pretty much auditioned to be his beard.
- 18:37And wait, is that how we met Kayla, Nicole.
- 18:40OK, no, thank God. That would have been almost too
- 18:43obvious if they met on the show. Anyways, 2016, he does this show
- 18:48catching Kelsey and yeah, it's just interesting that he's like,
- 18:52wow, I feel like I really need a girlfriend after becoming really
- 18:55good friends with this tight end that also looks very gay and I
- 18:58look very gay. So he does this show to bring
- 19:01attention to the fact that he's straight guys.
- 19:04So 2017 comes along, he starts dating Kayla Nicole and it's
- 19:10perfect because he can bring her along to these events with Ross
- 19:14Travis. So it doesn't look like he's
- 19:16just going with Ross Travis. And there's so many pictures of
- 19:19like him and events with Kayla and Ross together.
- 19:21It's literally now like with Taylor and Ross, like he just
- 19:26needs someone else to be there like a third wheel.
- 19:28So it doesn't look like just him and this like boyfriend going
- 19:32everywhere together. Literally I'm going to show up a
- 19:35picture right now. It's like 2017 fashion show
- 19:37supporting Operation Breakthrough Caitlin Nicole's
- 19:40there and Donna Kelsey and Travis Kelsey is wearing this
- 19:44fuck ass hat and this suit that just is so gay.
- 19:49And I know it's 2017, but even for 2017 it's not OK.
- 19:55Like I said, 2017 Ross Travis has dropped by the chiefs, but
- 19:58they maintain a strong friendship and Travis Kelsey
- 20:01dates Caitlin Nicole until 2022. Apparently they're like on and
- 20:05off for a while. I think Beard, yes, there's a
- 20:08possibility he's. I never want to jump to gay
- 20:11people. Could be by I'm by whatever.
- 20:14As someone who's bisexual, I feel like you can really tell
- 20:17bisexual vibes. And I don't think he's bisexual,
- 20:21that's just my opinion. So he's didn't kill Nicole until
- 20:242022? Ross Travis apparently is dating
- 20:28this girl in 2021. There's only like 1 picture of
- 20:31them together. Her name is Britt Manuela, and I
- 20:34don't know, maybe he needed a beer, too.
- 20:36He was like, oh, you're going to get a beard.
- 20:37I'll get one too. What does it sound like?
- 20:39I'm going to get you back with Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss,
- 20:422023. We're getting into Taylor
- 20:45Swift's era, right? Travis Kelsey is invited to a
- 20:50visit on Jimmy Fallon. And Ross Travis goes with him,
- 20:55accompanies him to this show. Like other celebrities don't
- 21:00bring like, a best friend unless they're like, their manager.
- 21:05Like, why is he bringing his best friend to all of these
- 21:09events? And if I was Travis and this
- 21:11weren't my boyfriend, I would be like, OK, you kind of need to
- 21:15have your own life because my life can't be your life.
- 21:19I mean, like, maybe not. Maybe they just, like, love
- 21:22hanging out. But it just feels suspicious at
- 21:24this point. And it's like, what is going on
- 21:27right now? The fact that, like, mainstream
- 21:29media has not caught on to this is really wild because it's not
- 21:32like, yeah, it's like, secret. But again, it's kind of like
- 21:35these secret women of Hollywood. It's like this open secret.
- 21:40They're not trying that hard. They're like, yeah, I'll have a
- 21:43girl with me, too. But like, this is like, my guy.
- 21:47So later in 2023, in the summer, as we know, Travis and Taylor
- 21:50started dating. It was time for Travis to have
- 21:53another relationship. Maybe rumors started coming up
- 21:56again about his sexuality around the time that Kim and Kayla
- 22:00stopped dating. But as we know, like, he can't
- 22:02just not have a relationship for like the last three years of his
- 22:05career. He was probably worried things
- 22:07are going to start coming up, even if rumors didn't happen.
- 22:10You know, like you want to just like maintain this St. persona.
- 22:15And of course, it does not hurt the fact that he needs a career
- 22:19after football. Taylor needs a beard.
- 22:22There's so many reasons why they would both need beards.
- 22:26If you're looking for an in depth episode on that, go to the
- 22:30first season of this podcast. I think it's like episode 2 and
- 22:34it's like Travis Taylor PR question mark, question mark.
- 22:38That's the episode. Go watch or stream or listen to
- 22:41that after this if you haven't already.
- 22:44But again, it's like beyond even being beards for each other, for
- 22:49Travis, it opens up like his audience, like now he's doing
- 22:56this TV show, grotesque. He's doing this reality TV show.
- 23:00You know what I mean? Like the family benefits.
- 23:02It gives him a career outside of football.
- 23:06And he was already kind of getting into that, but not at
- 23:10the extent. Now.
- 23:11I also have this other theory I came up with when I was high
- 23:14during the Super Bowl. The NFL is trying to expand into
- 23:16global audiences, trying to create leagues in other
- 23:19countries around Europe. What if Travis is going to be
- 23:25the, like, face of the International League now?
- 23:28I'm sure what you're saying right now is like, he's
- 23:30American. That wouldn't make sense.
- 23:32Yeah, of course it wouldn't make sense.
- 23:34But he's been exposed to so many international audiences because
- 23:39of Taylor Swift and her worldwide fan base.
- 23:42That could make sense to me, but I think it's probably just
- 23:46because of his. Like, he wants to get into
- 23:48Hollywood. Taylor, of course, wants to
- 23:51reach the peak of fame before she comes out.
- 23:53She wants to have her final Miss America in a moment.
- 23:56She needs a beard. Round out the errors to her on a
- 23:59straight note. You guys get it?
- 24:00OK so I do think the contract was always going to be around 2
- 24:05years. I think Travis probably knew he
- 24:07was about to have only two years left of his career.
- 24:10Taylor Swift was like that's perfect because the Errors tour
- 24:13is like a year or so left when they started dating.
- 24:16So it's like literally ideal for them.
- 24:18That's the PR reasons. 2023 Travis and Taylor start dating.
- 24:22Ross is literally always in Travis's box when he plays along
- 24:26with Taylor every single time. He's at every Travis event and
- 24:31he often parties with Taylor Swift as well, along with
- 24:34Travis. Kelsey.
- 24:35If you ever see Travis and Taylor together, Ross is like
- 24:38hiding there in the background. I feel bad for the guy. 2023 to
- 24:412024, this is like peak Arrows tour and Australia and the
- 24:47Europe tour where we really saw Ross and Travis shine as a
- 24:51couple. So in February 2024, Kelsey and
- 24:55Travis, so Travis Kelsey and Ross Travis, I know it's
- 24:58confusing, they travelled to Australia together to attend the
- 25:03Taylor Swift areas to her. This is when I do think us as a
- 25:07community started to really be like why is Ross Travis on this
- 25:12special romantic trip with Travis Kelsey and Taylor Swift?
- 25:16Like do not give me this bullshit of like OK, she has to
- 25:19train. Like who is he going to spend
- 25:22time with? Himself.
- 25:25Himself. Oh my God.
- 25:26If my girlfriend was a superstar and she went to Australia, I
- 25:31would just go by myself. I could hang out with her
- 25:34family, I could hang out with her crew, I could spend some
- 25:36time by myself when she's prepping.
- 25:38Like I don't need a best friend to support me.
- 25:41Yeah, that would be fun sometimes, but the fact that
- 25:43it's been so many shows is weird.
- 25:45It just doesn't make sense why he needs to bring a friend every
- 25:48time he sees his girlfriend. OK, so this is when the rumour
- 25:53that they stayed in the same hotel started to circulate.
- 25:57I still don't think we have like proof either way.
- 25:59We probably will never. These penthouse paparazzi
- 26:03pictures of Travis Kelsey and Ross Travis in this like glass
- 26:09like penthouse in Australia were leaked.
- 26:12And I was like, OK, so they're staying together.
- 26:16If you tell me right now. Oh, no, I think that Ross and
- 26:19Travis were just in Taylor Swift's suite.
- 26:22You're telling me Taylor Swift, who is training, is like, oh,
- 26:25yeah, just bring your friend into my room?
- 26:30Fuck. No, no, this was absolutely
- 26:34where Travis and Ross were staying together.
- 26:37That was crazy. Then the same time that they
- 26:41were on the same trip that they were in Australia, they
- 26:44seemingly held hands walking out of the door of the show.
- 26:48I'll also pull the pick up right now.
- 26:50I don't really know about that one.
- 26:51I don't think that they would actually hold hands in public
- 26:53because I don't think that they're that dumb.
- 26:56Maybe they kind of like forgot and like kind of leaned into
- 26:59each other with their pinkies. I don't know.
- 27:02Either way, it's cute. But Australia was extremely gay
- 27:06for them. And after this, I did notice
- 27:09that Ross pulled back a little bit.
- 27:11So after this happened, rumors started circling.
- 27:14They were dating spread by all of us.
- 27:18I mean, looks dating. I call it dating.
- 27:21Ross pulls back kind of from public appearances, a little bit
- 27:25like the next season of football.
- 27:27He wasn't as like front and center in like the viewing boxes
- 27:32as Taylor was, but obviously was still present at every single
- 27:36game. And then also during the Europe
- 27:38heiress tour, we saw all these paparazzi pictures with Taylor
- 27:41and Travis, like doing this like PR stunt of them, like sitting
- 27:45like awkwardly in front of this house that they could have sat
- 27:49behind the house and not have paparazzi, remember?
- 27:52But anyways, Roz and Travis were riding bikes on a little date
- 27:55when they were like visiting during her European Tour day,
- 27:59but they're literally spotted like riding around on like
- 28:02bikes. Like, he's with him again.
- 28:05What it's like, come on, you guys.
- 28:08Travis can't go alone to visit his girlfriend on a European
- 28:12getaway. I wouldn't be surprised if we,
- 28:14like, zoomed in on these, like, Italy pictures of Travis and
- 28:19Taylor and like, Ross is like in the back of the house or like in
- 28:22the window, like being sequestered back there.
- 28:26And like, probably Carly's back there, too.
- 28:28Also after Patrick Mahomes made that slip up.
- 28:31Let's talk about that very quickly.
- 28:33Patrick Mahomes in that interview, I think like a week
- 28:36before the Super Bowl, was talking about Taylor Swift and
- 28:38said, oh, I've built such a great friendship with her and
- 28:42her wife. Remember that?
- 28:45Crazy. It also doesn't even make any
- 28:46sense. If he was talking about her and
- 28:49my wife, they would have already built a great friendship since
- 28:52they've been dating since high school.
- 28:54So doesn't make sense either way.
- 28:56But everyone's like, who would her wife be?
- 28:58Who would her wife be guys? Karlie Kloss.
- 29:03I think that's my immediate answer if you were to ask me who
- 29:08else I thought could be her wife.
- 29:10Zoe Kravitz. She has not been pictured for a
- 29:13while. Suspicious.
- 29:15Like is that intentional? Also went through a breakup with
- 29:18Channing Tatum. So to Ashley Avignon, it's
- 29:23either someone who like we never see or someone we always see,
- 29:27like Ross. Travis is for Travis, you know,
- 29:30wouldn't be surprised it was Ashley Avignon.
- 29:32She has like no social media presence.
- 29:34She looks like Taylor Swift. Taylor Swift loves that and a
- 29:37girl. She's just always around.
- 29:39I think she's her professional wife.
- 29:42Who knows? But honestly, realistically, I
- 29:44think Carly, I mean, not realistically, I guess in my
- 29:47heart of hearts. OK, so we're almost done with
- 29:49this timeline. OK, Still 2024 quote from Yahoo
- 29:53News. When Kelsey was preoccupied with
- 29:55the Chiefs game against the San Francisco 49ers, Travis attended
- 29:59Swift's ERA tour concert in Miami.
- 30:03That means that Ross Travis went to the Miami show when Travis
- 30:07couldn't. Now, a lot of people were like,
- 30:08Oh my God, supportive friend just doesn't make any sense.
- 30:12I mean, yeah, he can go to whatever show he wants.
- 30:15Well, here's what I think. These rumors started going out
- 30:17about him and Travis dating. I think he was like, we need I
- 30:23need to go to the show and just show that I like the show just
- 30:26for it and not because I'm with Travis.
- 30:29Didn't hurt that after this happened, these rumors from
- 30:33straight Swifties trying to explain away the fact that Ross
- 30:36is at all of these shows, they're all saying, Oh my God,
- 30:41Ross Travis is dating a dancer with their sewer.
- 30:45That's why. Oh, that's why he's always there
- 30:49now It makes sense. OK, There's been no confirmation
- 30:54of this when you search this. Like I got nothing from it.
- 30:57OK, I don't know what to tell you.
- 30:59Sorry. Doesn't seem like you're right.
- 31:01Also, with all the publicity going around, you really think
- 31:04they would have a like a private relationship?
- 31:07If he was actually dating an heiress who were dancer?
- 31:09Don't you think that she would be like in the Super Bowl box?
- 31:14They would be having like double dates?
- 31:16Like fucking shit like Taylor Swift would do that in an
- 31:19instant. She'd be like, great, more PR.
- 31:21It's 'cause it's not happening. OK, December airs, tour wrap
- 31:26party or Taylor Swift's birthday party.
- 31:28None of us know what it was. It's very confusing to everyone.
- 31:32If it was Taylor Swift's birthday party only, like some
- 31:35of her friends were there. And don't get me started with
- 31:37like, oh, Ashley and some of the Heim sisters were there.
- 31:41At this point, they just professionally tour with her.
- 31:43OK, that is not of enough of a birthday party.
- 31:46If my birth, I had a surprise birthday party and only three of
- 31:48my friends were invited and everyone else were like my
- 31:51boyfriend's like football players or like what do you call
- 31:56like a Co player teammates. Oh my God, I'm so gay.
- 32:02I would be so pissed. OK, so birthday party.
- 32:04Weird heiress to a wrap party. Barely any of her dancers were
- 32:08there. It was all Chiefs players.
- 32:10It literally was a wrap party for I think the performance
- 32:15artler of the heiress to her. And then of course, Travis Kelce
- 32:19invited all his friends. Ross, Travis, and Taylor all
- 32:22posed together in this picture. I'll pull it up right now.
- 32:24This is picture heavy episode. They're wearing matching pinky
- 32:28rings. And of course, Ross is just like
- 32:31in every picture that Taylor and Travis are in together because
- 32:34duh, bring a pinky ring is queer flagging.
- 32:38OK? You cannot tell me it's not.
- 32:40This is just a fact about our history.
- 32:43There's an article in Vogue that I really like called Why I
- 32:46Started Wearing a Signet Pinky Ring as a Queer Woman, and the
- 32:50quote is like much of gay history, it was hiding in plain
- 32:54sight. I prefer hiding in plain sight,
- 32:57dear reader. Folks throughout the 1940s and
- 33:001960s wore pinky rings to denote their sexual orientation.
- 33:03If you didn't know that, then you'd miss it.
- 33:06Oh my God, I think that quote is fucking amazing and just so
- 33:10applies so much to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
- 33:13If you didn't know it, you would miss it.
- 33:14It it's not obvious, it's communicating to other queer
- 33:19people. And we picked up on it.
- 33:22So that's kind of like the timeline of their situation and
- 33:28what we know now. Obviously then it comes up to
- 33:31present day Super Bowl and them doing the whole gold roses
- 33:35stuff. There was also the rumor that
- 33:37they were living together. I tried to look that up again
- 33:40and find any proof for that. I couldn't I And then also there
- 33:45was this rumor going around that Ross was helping Travis remodel
- 33:48his kitchen and that's why he was living with him.
- 33:51I remember posting that on the Internet and there was like
- 33:54people being like whose best friend doesn't remodel their
- 33:56kitchen? I'm like not a millionaire
- 33:59Chiefs player who needs his guy best friend to do this
- 34:03construction for him. Like he's living there.
- 34:06It just doesn't make any sense. Any excuses for a grown man
- 34:09who's a millionaire housing his other best friend is gay.
- 34:12I don't care. But the way I see this timeline
- 34:15is Travis, Kelsey, Ross, Travis meet, they become friends, OK,
- 34:21then they see, then they start dating around like few years
- 34:26into their friendship. That's what I think catching
- 34:28Kelsey happens. He's like, I need to show that
- 34:31I'm straight, make being straight my brand.
- 34:34OK, Then bring up Kayla Nicole. She's a professional beard.
- 34:40Ross Travis is like, OK, I need a beard too Short little fling
- 34:44here. He's less into the beard thing.
- 34:46He's like, I'll give it a shot right?
- 34:49Then they break up. Travis is at the peak of his
- 34:51career. He's like, I've got two years
- 34:53left in the season. I need one more final beer to
- 34:57really to really go out with a bang.
- 34:59Ross is like, do your thing, man.
- 35:01You only got two more years left.
- 35:03We can make it until then. Taylor Swift happens and now
- 35:07they've been dating, I think, for a long time.
- 35:10Ross and Travis, it seems like they're very comfortable with
- 35:13each other. They have like this routine.
- 35:15It seems like they're chill with the situation now, but like, the
- 35:19gold roses is just like, so cute and sentimental and really makes
- 35:23me feel like they're like, ready to be open and out about it when
- 35:28they're allowed to be. If you're watching this and
- 35:30you're like, why wouldn't they be allowed to be out?
- 35:33We'll go into that right now. But yeah, I just feel like that
- 35:36moment was like so striking for all of us and we were like, my
- 35:41God, this is so sentimental and sweet.
- 35:44It seems like a long time coming the NFL.
- 35:48Let's talk about the NFL and why it's so hard to be gay in the
- 35:52NFL. OK, The NFL is a conservative,
- 35:55homophobic institution, point blank, period.
- 35:58If you don't believe me, I have stats.
- 36:01There's no room for politics. The entire culture of this
- 36:05league, and some argue it is like an entertainment league now
- 36:09and not even a sports league. And therefore it is for
- 36:13consumption and viewers and a lot of people to watch it and
- 36:17not worry about politics. It is adjusted for white men to
- 36:23watch and not think about their problems, which they don't have
- 36:28or most of them don't. Yeah.
- 36:31And that's why no politics should be put into it.
- 36:34You just want to be able to watch these players.
- 36:35There's also this culture of historically white, very rich
- 36:41owners and black players who are living in this country that has
- 36:47a lot of historical racial injustice and currently has it
- 36:50right now. And you're playing for these
- 36:52white owners that make so much money off of you and you can't
- 36:55even talk about politics. So that's the culture, right?
- 36:59And it does depend on the team you're playing for, how
- 37:04conservative that team is, how much you can say and can't say.
- 37:08And we'll go in about how the Chiefs are probably one of the
- 37:12more conservative teams you could play for.
- 37:14Before we go into that, obviously I'm sure you guys are
- 37:16all familiar with kneeling gate. Anyone who's international, if
- 37:20you haven't heard about this, Colin Kaepernick was this
- 37:23player. He started kneeling during the
- 37:26national anthem before games, before football games, in
- 37:32protest for racial justice. He started this movement.
- 37:35A lot of players started doing this.
- 37:36Eventually it was fucking banned because that's how much fans
- 37:40were so pissed that they were kneeling.
- 37:43And kneeling is a sign of respect.
- 37:45It's not like you're like spitting on the flag.
- 37:49This was all like 2016, right? It's sort of this movement.
- 37:52Eventually, it was banned. Now, as a player, if you kneel,
- 37:56the entire team gets fined, but you can stay in the locker room
- 38:01during the national anthem if you want to.
- 38:03Obviously, that dissentivized players from doing it.
- 38:06And Colin Kaepernick, he ended up filing a grievance against
- 38:10the NFL for keeping him out of the league.
- 38:12So he was pretty much like shunned from the NFL after this.
- 38:16So that's not a very good breeding ground for like,
- 38:19staying true to who you are in the NFL, right?
- 38:22Like when you're a player for the NFL, you kind of resign your
- 38:26own personal belief system. You have to become like a poster
- 38:31child for the NFLUSA Today 2024 did a study and here's the quote
- 38:36from them. The analysis showed that
- 38:39collectively, NFL owners donations during the current
- 38:42election cycle leaned right Of the 24 owners with partisan
- 38:46giving, 16 donated primarily or exclusively to Republican
- 38:51candidates, political action committees and joint fundraising
- 38:55committees. And in total, about 83% of the
- 38:58money donated by NFL owners has gone to conservative candidates
- 39:02and causes. So even if for some reason your
- 39:05fans are more left-leaning or your the NFL, which lately has
- 39:11become, has been making these comments being like, oh, we're
- 39:15going to try to be more like progressive, whatever.
- 39:17Even if that's happening, your owners pretty much decide what's
- 39:20going on. OK.
- 39:22So if your owners are far right leaning, it doesn't really
- 39:25matter what the NFL does also like locker room talk this
- 39:30culture of like joking about sexual assault.
- 39:34And of course we can't even go into the fact of the CT of NFL
- 39:38and the historic domestic abuse of NFL players and how that is
- 39:42like shoved under the rug and all this stuff.
- 39:45The culture of football and the NFL and like, talking about like
- 39:50using homophobic slurs and being like really sexist and talking
- 39:54about sexual assault and like all this kind of stuff is just
- 39:57horrific. So I cannot imagine being a gay
- 40:00man, a closeted gay man in the NFL nightmare.
- 40:05It also really reminds me of Colton Underwood from The
- 40:08Bachelor. And his experience, again, a
- 40:11very good example of someone who's like whole identity was
- 40:15like being a football player and being straight.
- 40:17He went on ATV show, he went on the Bachelor.
- 40:21He was the Bachelor. His whole thing was like
- 40:24straight trying to find love with a woman and he was gay.
- 40:29It's not impossible, guys. He has the same look of Travis
- 40:33Kelce too, kind of bare esque, right?
- 40:35And like how he talked about his experiences playing football, it
- 40:41really shows like why it was not a safe environment to come out.
- 40:45I'm not going to excuse what he I think he like stalked his
- 40:49ex-girlfriend. Still wack.
- 40:51But alas. It just shows the culture of
- 40:53football. Right?
- 40:55So then also besides the owners, besides the culture, besides the
- 40:59fans, besides the NFL, like players and coaches are
- 41:05homophobic. In 2013 a 49ers player Chris
- 41:09Culver said he would not accept gay players and also said if
- 41:12you're gay you should come out years after playing.
- 41:15Seems like a Travis Kelce playbook.
- 41:17IN2021A Buccaneers coach Jon Gruden sent homophobic emails.
- 41:21I think he ended up quitting or resigning. 2024 as we all know.
- 41:25Harrison Butker, motherfucker, he said this whole speech about
- 41:29gender roles and religion and just like super backwards
- 41:34homophobic, sexist fucking stuff.
- 41:37And like the note I have here is it says the note I have here is
- 41:43quote goes without saying anything after this happened.
- 41:46And again, he's a Chiefs player. When this happens on your own
- 41:50team, do you feel safe to come out?
- 41:52You feel like you can't even say anything against that because
- 41:55the Chiefs owner backed Harrison Butker after this.
- 41:58The Chiefs owner congratulated Harrison Butker on having
- 42:02Republican pack after this speech.
- 42:04This is from Fox News. When you kneel and stand by
- 42:07progressive values, it's not OK. It seems like any time someone
- 42:11from the NFL does something far right leaning, it's
- 42:14congratulated, but opposite it is not.
- 42:17So you're learning from this and being like, great, OK, cannot
- 42:21come out. Cannot come out.
- 42:23My fans would hate me. I would lose all my money.
- 42:25Maybe I would get fired. Maybe I would get like beat up
- 42:28from my players, other players, teammates.
- 42:32Let's talk about gay NFL players.
- 42:34This is from out sports. There have been only 16 out gay
- 42:41and by football players in the NF LS 105 year history 16 That's
- 42:49insane. So Travis Kelsey coming out
- 42:55would add one more only 17. So let's just remember like
- 43:00everyone being like, oh, like, why would he?
- 43:02Why would he be gay? Because you can't be gay.
- 43:04You like pretty much can't. The NFL will be like, yes, you
- 43:08can, but it's like you can't. I mean, you can.
- 43:11It's extremely hard. It's an uphill battle.
- 43:14However, the first active NFL player to come out as gay, the
- 43:20first one in the entire history, was in 2021.
- 43:24Karl Naseeb, he came out in 2021, first one ever.
- 43:30Major headlines. Like, I can't imagine how hard
- 43:33that would have been. And it's crazy that the first
- 43:36time that happened was in 2021. The NFL compared to, like, our
- 43:40country is so backwards. Obviously, that went over well
- 43:45in some circles and didn't go over well in other circles.
- 43:47Travis Kelce is probably seeing this being, like, taking notes.
- 43:50OK, like, what do I do? You know what I mean?
- 43:53Like, do I do this? Do I not do this?
- 43:56Like, what would happen if I did do it?
- 43:57That's so crazy that only one active NFL player has ever come
- 44:01out. So the argument of anyone being
- 44:05like, oh, he would just be out is just completely ludicrous
- 44:08based on these stats. In 2021, a week after Carl came
- 44:14out, the NFL made a commercial that said football is gay.
- 44:18Now you may say, wow, that's surprising.
- 44:20That's great, great direction. I agree.
- 44:23I think that's great. It can't just be a little
- 44:28statement and like one donation, OK, There has to be like a
- 44:32systematic change and it's going to be a slow process for a
- 44:36cultural change here. And especially with the fact
- 44:39that the owners are donating to far right PACs and far right
- 44:47religious, homophobic, sexist organizations and political
- 44:52parties. And it also doesn't change the
- 44:54perception of American football fans who are more conservative
- 44:59also, like the Chiefs are way more conservative than other
- 45:05teams. And the owner and the owner's
- 45:09family donates to more Republican causes than like a
- 45:13lot of other teams. So that's also setting the tone
- 45:16for the culture of a team, right, And the city that you're
- 45:21playing for. OK Finally I want to talk about
- 45:23Travis Kelce's family because personally if and it is this is
- 45:29APR relationship I think his close family knows.
- 45:33I cannot see Kylie Kelsey being down for this whole fucking
- 45:38thing if it wasn't to protect Travis.
- 45:41I really feel that in my heart and when I saw that video of
- 45:45Jason Kelsey yelling the F slur, when Travis Kelsey was called
- 45:49the F slur, I really felt like it came from Jason wanting to
- 45:52protect his brother and it makes me want to cry.
- 45:56It is horrible what he said. He should not have said it.
- 45:59I think it was his twisted way of defending Travis.
- 46:02That's my opinion. This is from the guardian quote
- 46:05video on social media show the retired Philadelphia Eagles
- 46:08center. That's Jason Kelsey mixing with
- 46:11fans before the Penn State Ohio State game.
- 46:13One fan then asked Kelsey how does it feel that your brother
- 46:16Travis is an epsler for dating Taylor Swift?
- 46:19Kelsey then appeared to grab the fans phone, slam it to the
- 46:22ground and say who's the epsler now?
- 46:25I no, that's not OK. He never apologized to the LGBTQ
- 46:30community. And I do think it's homophobic
- 46:33to use that slur towards him. I can totally see in an effed up
- 46:38way that that's him being like, how dare you call my brother
- 46:41that. Like it came from feeling like
- 46:43there was some element of how did you read that and how dare
- 46:47you say that about him because I know he's gay.
- 46:51You know, that's how I read it. Then in a little switch up.
- 46:57This is the craziest comment from Donna Kelsey in 2024.
- 47:01Donna Kelsey literally said about Travis quote because
- 47:05listen, I think Donna Kelsey knows Travis is gay.
- 47:07So he's she's like, why is this girl Taylor always here?
- 47:11Like I think that's why she's so weird about Taylor because she's
- 47:14like, what what is she doing? Like, I'm not.
- 47:17That's why Taylor's not going to Thanksgiving, not eating her
- 47:20roles because like she's not a part of the family.
- 47:24But anyways, 2024 Donna Kelsey, she says, quote about Travis,
- 47:28he's a fashionista and said his image to him is, quote, very
- 47:35important. She said about her son that he's
- 47:38a fashionista that is a gay son and that is a icon mother.
- 47:47I think if Donna Kelsey like knows that he's gay, I think we
- 47:50should all like, this really sheds light on the whole
- 47:56dynamic, doesn't it? The fact that like they're like
- 48:00kind of protective over him and they're on board with the whole
- 48:04PR thing because it doesn't seem like they would be.
- 48:06I mean, obviously they're making a lot of money from it, so there
- 48:11has to be some incentive like incentivization there.
- 48:14But I don't know. I think the whole thing is very
- 48:17fascinating. Also, when I searched, when I
- 48:20was doing research for this on Google, quote Ross Travis and
- 48:24Travis Kelsey Gay, the literal first thing that comes up is a
- 48:28picture of me. I'm just being so serious.
- 48:32Try looking it up. It's one of the Tik Toks I made
- 48:35and like, I'm there. So it's like if for some reason,
- 48:38like Taylor's team or Travis's team was trying to look up and
- 48:42see to see the traction of these rumors, even if they were true
- 48:46or not, they see my face. I'm going to be sued.
- 48:49I'm going to be blacklisted. But yeah, guys, that is the
- 48:53whole deep dive from what we have on the Internet.
- 48:56Now. If for some reason you have some
- 48:59tea, please let me know. I will not expose you.
- 49:04I really feel like we are at Ground Zero with this theory.
- 49:08This is literally like being a swift grown Stan in 20/12/2013
- 49:14and like building the timeline from scratch.
- 49:15So that's my theory that he's been in a long term relationship
- 49:18with. Ross needed these beards.
- 49:21Taylor's the last one and he's about to come out.
- 49:24I feel it in my heart. I hope the gold rose just
- 49:28really, it made me so hopeful. OK, that's our episode for this
