Kelce is expanding his off-field portfolio

Travis Kelce is not just dominating on the field – he’s now leaving his mark on the small screen in ways you wouldn’t expect. The two-time Super Bowl champ has taken on a brand-new challenge as the host of Prime Video’s Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?, but it’s not his sports skills that are in the spotlight. In an unexpected twist, Kelce‘s surprising knowledge of music left his celebrity co-stars, and the audience, in stitches.

On the latest episode, premiering on October 23rd, Kelce found himself at the center of a hilarious moment when a simple question about instruments left the panel of celebrity guests flustered. When asked, “The saxophone is a member of what family of instruments?” the stars were caught off guard – and none of them managed to get it right.

Chad Ochocinco, Garcelle Beauvais, Ron Funches, and Natasha Leggero all gave wildly different responses. Ochocinco guessed “brass,” Beauvais confidently answered “horn,” while Funches and Leggero both went with “wind.” As the audience burst out laughing, Kelce swooped in with the correct answer – “woodwind” – leaving the panel to wonder how they had missed such a basic question.

“Isn’t woodwind just another type of wind?” Leggero asked in confusion, throwing a playful jab at Kelce. But Kelce, proving his music chops, confidently explained that woodwinds are indeed different due to a crucial piece – the reed. Ochocinco, whose answer was the furthest off, tried to redeem himself by finishing Kelce’s sentence, but Kelce wasn’t about to let him off the hook that easily. The crowd erupted as Kelce playfully called him out for his incorrect “brass” answer, sparking a light-hearted back-and-forth between the two athletes.

But the real pressure was on YouTube star Lilly Singh, who was tasked with saving a contestant from elimination if they couldn’t answer correctly. Singh, known more for her comedy than her musical prowess, had the contestant’s fate in her hands. However, the episode ends on a cliffhanger, leaving viewers wondering if Singh’s answer was right or if the contestant’s game was over.

Kelce, who recently spoke to People about the show, shared his excitement about taking over the iconic game show format. “It’s a fun twist on the original concept, and I’ve always loved the idea of making it a bit more unpredictable,” he said. And judging by the laughter that followed his playful music lesson, it seems Kelce is doing just that – keeping both the contestants and the audience on their toes.

As Kelce balances football with his new hosting gig, it’s clear that his talents extend far beyond the gridiron. Whether he’s saving the day with music trivia or trading jabs with fellow celebrities, Kelce’s quick wit and charm are making this show one to watch.
