Alright, folks, this is not a drill—Travis Kelce’s date night look with Taylor Swift in NYC hit social media, and the fans went full roast mode. Picture this: Kelce strolling into a SoHo hotspot with Swift, plus Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, and the Chiefs star’s mustache apparently had everyone mistaking him for Anchorman’s Ron Burgundy. Twitter and Instagram practically imploded with comparisons, with fans dubbing him a mix of 70s dad, 80s porn star, and even calling him Taylor’s “father” (ouch!).
The “what-is-that-shirt” comments also flooded in—Kelce’s $490 Jacquemus shirt had some, let’s say, interesting humanoid figures printed on it, which fans zoomed in on, interpreting everything from abstract art to “wait, are those figures… doing something?” Swifties were equal parts confused and bemused. Some joked Kelce looked like Swift’s dad, others went for the “he used to be hot” jab, and the comments only got spicier.
The mockery wasn’t reserved for Kelce alone. Taylor, Blake, and Ryan took some heat too—Taylor’s saddlebag got compared to Sex and the City’s Carrie Bradshaw, Blake got called out for “holey fishnets,” and, surprisingly, fans even went after Reynolds for not having facial hair.
So, was this a group fashion faux pas, or are they just so cool they don’t care? Either way, one thing is for sure: the internet’s got jokes, and no ‘70s dad mustache will ever go unnoticed!
