Travis Kelce has been called out for being both ‘corny’ and ‘cheesy’ over his reaction to attention amid his high-profile romance with Taylor Swift as the Chiefs star is ripped for his off-field antics.
That’s according to country star Jana Kramer, who was notably married to former NFL player Mike Caussin from 2015 to 2021.
‘He reminds me of my ex,’ the One Tree Hill TV star, 40, told Josie Van Dyke during the Sunday, May 5, episode of her ‘Whine Down’ podcast.
‘But it just feels a little corny, cheesy. It just feels like he’s loving the attention.’
Kramer further revealed that she initially ‘loved’ the couple’s PDA-filled relationship – like when Swift and Kelce, both 34, kissed on the field right after Kansas City’s AFC Championship win – but then started to take note of some of the Chiefs tight end’s behavioral patterns.

‘Honestly, the Super Bowl thing rubbed me kind of the wrong way – the aggression there,’ she said, referencing Kelce yelling at and pushing Chiefs head coach Andy Reid during this year’s game in Las Vegas.
Kelce later apologized for his ‘unacceptable’ actions during an episode of his and brother Jason Kelce’s ‘New Heights’ podcast.
‘And then I’ve just kind of heard things that I don’t love. But again, I just want everyone to be happy is what I’ll default to. I don’t know, it’s something about him that reminds me of my ex that just rubs me the wrong way,’ Kramer continued.
She then alleged: ‘To me, he’s always drunk. Every time I’ve ever seen a video he’s just always drunk. And I hope she doesn’t go on that. I see her drinking more now, like the company you keep.’

Kelce and Swift are close to hitting the one-year mark in their romance as the pair were first romantically linked in the summer of 2023. The popstar revealed in her Time Magazine Person of the Year profile that she and Kelce were already dating by the time she saw him play against the Chicago Bears in his family’s suite back in September.
But, as of late, the couple’s kept a low profile, as Kelce was seen at the Kentucky Derby and the Miami Grand Prix without his popstar girlfriend, who is set to embark on the European leg of her ‘Eras’ Tour later this week. She is scheduled to start off in Paris on May 9.
The last time Swift and Kelce were publicly seen together was at Patrick Mahomes’ charity event in Las Vegas last month.
Mahomes has even chimed in on his teammate’s success over the last year or so, as he described Kelce as ‘super intelligent’. He added that the Ohio native ‘puts on a persona’ with wild partying and drinking antics, like he did during his New Heights Live show at the University of Cincinnati in April.
