Travis Kelce’s unexpected dating ‘dealbreaker’— resurfaced clip sparks fresh Taylor Swift buzz | NFL News
A throwback clip of Kansas City Chiefs superstar Travis Kelce has resurfaced online, revealing his blunt dating “dealbreaker” from years before his headline-grabbing love story with Taylor Swift. Filmed in 2016, the video has shocked the internet as it circles social media again, sparking fresh buzz around the NFL tight end’s pre-fame dating mindset. The viral moment shows a younger Kelce dishing cheeky relationship opinions with total confidence on live television.
Before catching Taylor Swift, Travis played ‘catching Kelce’ on TV
Travis Kelce appeared on Watch What Happens Live while promoting his E! dating reality show Catching Kelce, agreeing to a playful Q&A. Host Andy Cohen and Real Housewives of New York star Ramona Singer grilled him in a rapid-fire game titled Let’s Make a Deal Breaker. When asked about intimacy rules, Kelce responded, “Sex on the third date is ideal—but not a deal breaker,” delivering the line with the charm that made him a reality-TV natural. As soon as the clip hit the internet, a fan named @dashiolli commented, “Ok ladies wait until the 5th date best to see what he’s really about.” Another named @pattistanger shared, “So Taylor slept with him by date 3? Hmm.”
Selfie-obsessed behavior instantly turned him off completely
Singer then asked whether Kelce would date a woman constantly taking selfies, expecting another playful answer. Instead, he stunned the room by declaring, “Oh no. That’s a dealbreaker,” making it crystal clear he disliked selfie-obsessed behaviour. His brutally honest reaction sparked surprise as he explained it sent the wrong energy for a serious connection. Online viewers have reignited debate over whether his old-school stance still holds in today’s selfie-driven world.
Old clip explodes again as Kelce enjoys peak superstardom
Kelce’s blunt 2016 remark is going viral precisely because his life has transformed beyond recognition. In 2025, he is a three-time Super Bowl champion, pop-culture heavyweight, and half of the world’s most-watched celebrity couple. Millions who missed the original TV appearance are discovering the clip for the first time and reacting strongly. As the internet continues to dissect every detail of his past, even his forgotten dating “dealbreakers” have become headline gold in the Travis Kelce era.Also read: Revealed: Inside the off-season power gambles turning 2025’s NFL pecking order upside down
