While the entire globe is shrouded in the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance fever, Skip Bayless thinks it’s a publicity stunt. The veteran sports analyst is not sold by all the chatter about the relationship being beneficial for football.

During the recent episode of the Skip Bayless Show on Thursday, the 71-year-old covered the latest trends. Not just the world of sports, but also dove deep into the emergence of the new celebrity power couple.

Bayless revealed that he hopes that the relationship is real. He believes that the love from the Kansas City Chiefs star tight ends may be accurate. But he is not too sure that’s the case from the pop icon’s side.

I believe from a distance that his feelings for her are very real. But [hers] for him? I have no idea. How can you know? How can even he be sure?

Bayless questioned the authenticity of Taylor Swift’s love for Travis Kelce.

Taylor Swift’s commitment to Travis Kelce appeared fake to Skip Bayless

The ‘Undisputed’ host wasn’t content with only doubting their romance but went one step further. Bayless claimed everything feels staged and is a ploy to tap into an audience that Taylor Swift hasn’t managed to.

According to him, the 12-time Grammy winner is unusually camera-aware. Even more so than Kelce. This has led him to believe that everything is fake, at least from her side.

When she’s up in the box, she comes off as stagey and fake to me. I don’t buy it. My radar detector’s saying, ‘nope, nope'.

To back up his theory, he mentioned Swift and Kelce kissing in Buenos Aires.

His monologue ended with the speculation that the ‘cruel summer’ singer made this stunt up to get more followers. Her ‘swifties’ are everywhere, but there was once a place where she wasn’t able to get a foothold, and it’s the NFL.

Despite being a recognized Philadelphia Eagles fan because of her father, Scott Swift, football fans don’t seem to care too much about her. And not only that, dating a two-time Super Bowl winner will also provide leverage over the NFL itself.

Is she using this all-time fairy tale romance to plug into NFL-sized publicity and promotion? I hope not, but I do wonder.

Well, he isn’t someone too shy away from making a few controversial remarks or two. However, is it wise to launch a frontal assault against one of the most famous personalities? Only time will tell.
