Travis Kelce Reacts to Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson’s Claims They Set Him Up With Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce reacted to sports commentators Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson‘s claims that they set him up with girlfriend Taylor Swift after his failed attempt to give the pop star his phone number in July 2023.

On May 23, Erin, 46, and Charissa, 42, appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and joked about the start of Traylor’s love story. “[Travis] had mentioned on his podcast that he went to the [Eras tour] show, wanted to meet her afterwards, didn’t get the chance to,” Erin explained. “So, we just started talking about it on our podcast [“Calm Down​”] saying, ‘Taylor, do this for America. Date him.’ I mean, the guy, he’s not ugly by any means. So, we’re like, ‘Taylor, go!'”

Charissa chimed in and gushed that she and Erin “were advocating early on.”

“And he was very sweet and he commented and he was like, ‘I owe you guys big time,’ so then, of course, everyone gives us credit,” she said. “We, you know, we’ll take the credit. But I just love both of them and I’m so happy to see them happy.”

Jimmy, 49, who is also a stan of the couple, thanked the women for creating Hollywood’s hottest couple, joking, “As a country, we’re thanking our servicemen and women [on Memorial Day], but we really have to thank you for what you’ve done for all of us. You brought us Taylor and Travis, oh my God.”

The Tonight Show’s official Instagram shared a clip of the interview and Travis, 34, reacted to the matchmaker’s claims in the comments section.

“For America!! Charissa and Erin are the best!,” the Kansas City Chiefs tight end wrote.
