Internet users assert Travis Kelce landed movie role because of Taylor Swift
Readers online unleashed a train of criticism on Kelce, with one writing, "Dating Taylor Swift has some great perks. He's trying to move out of football when he latest contract is up. She'll be done and moved on by then."
Another user wrote, "He is so desperate for fame... he won't have much time for Taylor with his acting, hosting jobs, podcast, commercials, music festivals, partying and football. I don't think they will do well on a permanent long distance relationship... she will wake up every day to headlines of his partying and "close" relationships to actresses and it is going to cause her so much distress I suspect."
A user commented, "Of course he’s using Taylor. She’s not his “type”.."
Another user commented, "How long before he hooks up with someone behind the scenes while TS is back on tour?"
A user stated, "Dating Taylor is merely a career move for him. He only cares about the fame and is shameless with it."
