"People think it is emasculating for him for some reason. Meanwhile, the biggest pop star in the world clearly loves him. But people are weird."
ResurrectedMortician's comment that was referring to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce that started the discussion on Reddit read:
"Under the category, "The TV Show In Question," the Jeopardy! clue that was worth $200 read, 'Are You Smarter Than A Celebrity?' is hosted by this man who's maybe more famous as a bf than as a 3-time Super Bowl champ."
For the Reddit discussion board KansasCityChiefs, many fans shared their views as they participated in the discussion; a Reddit user, FloppyObelisk, shared:
"That's hilarious."

"He'll soon be famous for being a Four-Time SB champ AND a BF."
Another fan factoid_ shared:
"And for proposing on the stage with the lombardi in one hand and a superbowl ring sized engagement ring in the other."
Any-Elderberry-5263 commented:
"I suspect 3 Super Bowls and a decent chance at another one every year you play, plus knowing you're first-ballot HoF gives you exactly enough DGAF to be cool with being Mr Taylor Swift. It must be coming up 18 months now - good for them."
One more fan, GoldenDom3r, shared how there are "very few men" who are more popular than Taylor Swift and commented:
"I mean, there’s very few men on the planet who are more popular than her."
Any-Elderberry-5263 replied:
"True… but dudes not coping with their partners being more successful, wealthier etc than they are, particularly when they're in a similar field, is a well-worn cliché with a bit of truth in it…"
KeThrowaweigh shared about another celebrity couple and commented:
"Gisele Bündchen is so well-known internationally that Tom Brady is known as Gisele's ex-husband outside of America. It happens."
Randomacct7679 shared about how these days Jeopardy! players can answer such "sports" category questions correctly:
"I'm just amazed the jeopardy contestant got the answer right. Usually the sports categories result in the contestants going 0-fer."
FireGolem04 commented about the Travis Kelce clue on Jeopardy!:
"I guess that would indicate it being true about him being more famous as a boyfriend."
Kat_fud agreed and wrote:
"Travis is secure enough in his manhood that he doesn't mind being the second most famous person in their relationship."
One more Reddit user, Human-Dealer1125, commented:
"If Taylor and Kelce are smiling, who cares if people talk. It's their business, people are just jealous. When I hear people dogging Kelce being Mr Swift, I just ask "Would you trade places with him?" The answer is always yes, maybe a younger version but yes. Then STFU. Women would trade with Taylor even faster."
