It was an unexpected twist when NFL stars and brothers Travis and Jason Kelce decided to dive into the world of “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.”
The 2005 film, starring Blake Lively, one of Taylor Swift’s best friends, became the focus of their movie review in a special episode of their New Heights podcast.
The Kelce brothers are known for their football prowess, but it was their commentary on this light-hearted drama that had fans laughing.
While watching, the two couldn’t resist poking fun at some scenes, especially Blake Lively’s character, Bridget.
Lighthearted Criticism
Jason, with his sharp humor, couldn’t help but joke about the way Blake Lively ran in the film.
“A lot of the movie is just Bridget running,” Jason quipped, adding, “Not the best run. Blake, I love you, but it doesn’t strike me as a star athlete run.”
His brother Travis chimed in with laughter, but gave Lively props for her endurance.
“She has good endurance though… I would be gassed!” he said, imagining himself in the same situation.
The “Soccer Camp in Mexico” Debate
As the brothers continued their banter, Jason humorously commented on one of the film’s plot points involving Bridget attending a soccer camp in Mexico.
“Not a chance in hell that my daughter would be at a soccer camp in Mexico at 17 years old!” he exclaimed, bringing a dose of real-life parental concern into the discussion.
Despite the teasing, the Kelces acknowledged Blake Lively’s strong performance.
Travis even joked that he might have been a bit biased, since Lively is friends with his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.
Deeper Thoughts and Unexpected Reactions
While much of their commentary was lighthearted, Jason admitted that the movie surprised him with its acting quality.
“Not a bad film,” he said, “Hard to relate, but the acting was better than expected.”
However, he was a bit let down that the titular pair of jeans didn’t play a bigger role.
His wife, Kylie, quickly corrected him, explaining that the jeans symbolize the bond of friendship between the characters.
Jason also admitted to feeling emotional during some parts of the film, particularly concerning Blake Lively’s character, Bridget.
He expressed sympathy for her tough storyline and her complicated relationship with her coach, Eric.
“I felt terrible for Bridget. She got taken advantage of,” he shared, adding that he even teared up during certain scenes, though he tried to hide it.
The Start of the Kelce Brothers’ Movie Club
This bonus episode marked the beginning of the Kelce brothers’ movie club, a fun new series where they review films suggested by their listeners.
Jason jokingly noted that many of the suggestions were “chick flicks,” likely because of their connection to Swift’s fan base.
“We’ve got a lot of Swifties trying to make us watch bad movies… At least Twilight had vampires!” he laughed.
A Power Couple in the Spotlight
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been making headlines since they started dating in the summer of 2023.
The couple recently enjoyed a double date night with Blake Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, further cementing their status as one of Hollywood’s power couples.
The group has even been involved in charity work, donating to hurricane relief efforts.
Despite rumors of a possible breakup earlier in the fall, it seems the couple is stronger than ever.
Reports suggest that they are having “serious conversations” about their future together, with Taylor expressing excitement about settling down after her tour wraps up.
With fans eagerly following their journey, it looks like the Kelce brothers’ movie night is just one more chapter in the ever-evolving world of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
