Travis Kelce, who is set to marry pop icon Taylor Swift in a few weeks, has come under fire for allegedly "inappropriate" behavior while attending a game between the New York Knicks and the Cleveland Cavaliers on May 23, 2026.
Kelce attracted attention when he was spotted greedily downing a beer at an event. Swift didn't seem impressed either. The veteran tight end recounted the incident on the May 27 episode of his New Heights podcast, along with his brother, Jason Kelce, also an NFL veteran.
On the podcast, Jason Kelsey addressed his brother. "You're so fucking tactless... You're a role model, Travis," Jason joked. "You can't drink beer in public.".
During the incident, Swift appeared to be hiding her face and laughing. Travis defended his actions, calling them "an exquisite sip.".
«"That was a great sip, Jason! I didn't spill a drop," he said. "I didn't crush the can. I'm standing on a hardwood floor at an NBA basketball game. It could have been very messy. It was a smooth, elegant sip to lift the spirits of the crowd. We're scoring points, trying to get the atmosphere going.".
Although many assumed Swift was embarrassed at the moment, the couple was seen kissing and embracing tenderly after the incident. The Cleveland Cavaliers ultimately lost to the New York Knicks 121-108. Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will reportedly marry on July 3 in New York City.
