Travis Kelce is one of the NFL’s best and most talked about athletes. His stardom rose even higher after Taylor Swift entered his life. And as is with Swifties, the looks of the Chiefs’ star player are a regular point of discussion. And recently, Kelce was advised by fans to trim his beard. However, it doesn’t seem Swift’s boyfriend will listen to her fans’ demands.
Ever since the NFL Playoff season, Kelce has been pictured with his beard regularly and fans have noticed its growth over the last few months, and thus were calling him to trim it. While it seems a rare possibility, Kelce also shared the reason behind it and how he wanted his hair in childhood.

Eminem is a legend of Hip Hop and an inspiration for everyone, and so is it for Travis Kelce. The Chiefs’ tight end recently revealed his admiration for the “Not Afraid” singer on the Apple podcast New Heights with host Jason Kelce. “I remember when I was young I wanted my hair blonde like Eminem”, he revealed while discussing contemporary hairstyles with Jason.
The 35-year-old further added that his mom helped him to spray his hair. The NFL duo together recalled color sprays from their childhood days which would turn the hair blonde when exposed to sunlight. A few days earlier, Kelce slammed the claims that a fade haircut was invented by him when he usually can be seen in a buzz cut. And according to his barber, Kelce’s fade buzz cut takes him only about 20 minutes. While fans see regular haircuts, the same hasn’t been the case for his beard.

When asked whether it was last year’s Playoff beard, Kelce admitted with a glaring ‘Yeahh’. However, there is a very good reason behind it as well.
