Stephen A. Smith thinks Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce make a perfect match because they are both so successful in their respective fields.
While appearing on the “Howard Stern Show” Tuesday, the ESPN commentator shot down Howard Stern’s claim that Kelce “has to marry” the 12-time Grammy winner if he wants to stay popular, insisting they’re both a catch in their own right.
“He is a two-time Super Bowl champion, he’s on the verge of potentially being a three-time Super Bowl champion,” the “First Take” co-host said in defense of Kelce. “He’s universally recognized as one of the greatest tight ends in the history of football.”
Although Smith, 56, believes the Kansas City Chiefs star is “a really, really good dude,” he also noted that Swift is just as “phenomenal.”
“Taylor Swift is a good-looking woman, she is an incredible artist — I went to her concert with my daughters,” Smith said.
Smith was blown away by the dedication shown by Swifties during the concert, noting that they “know every lyric of every song” and stood for the entirety of the almost four-hour show.
“I’m 56 years old… I stood up for the 3 and a half hours,” he said. “I never sat down.”
