Travis Kelce ’s Viral Back Hair Sparks Internet Buzz , Manscaped and Waxing Studio Jump In With Offers
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has made headlines again, but this time it’s not for his plays or his relationship with Taylor Swift , it’s his body hair that has fans and brands buzzing.
Photos of Kelce shirtless after a sweaty offseason workout in Miami went viral this week, revealing a notably hairy chest and back. The moment , captured as Kelce changed shirts near his car , racked up over 35 million impressions on X (formerly Twitter), with reactions ranging from surprise to praise to poking fun.
One fan wrote, “Travis Kelce is hairy as s**. I like a hairy man but sir.”* Another asked bluntly, “Taylor Swift is okay with that?”
The viral moment caught the attention of grooming companies. Manscaped, known for its men’s grooming tools and personal care products, immediately stepped in with an offer.
According to TMZ Sports, Manscaped said they would gladly send Kelce a package of grooming products free of charge, specifically offering their Lawn Mower trimmer , a cordless, waterproof electric razor designed for body hair removal.
“If he wants to test one out, we’ll ship him some goodies,” Manscaped told TMZ.
But razors weren’t the only option presented to the NFL star. Erin Thomas , owner of Trifecta Studios in Kansas City, also jumped into the conversation. She offered to wax Kelce’s back and chest free of charge, saying she’d be happy to help smooth things out if he’s interested.
Kelce, 35, addressed the viral reaction on the latest episode of the New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother Jason Kelce . Referring to his thick body hair, he joked, “I’m a furry son of a b**h,”* and laughed off the attention.
The tight end also explained the origin of his nickname, “Big Yeti,” which he said started back in his University of Cincinnati days playing pickup basketball. “It’s just a big ole Yeti out there, man,” he recalled. “All the homies on the court were calling me ‘ Big Yeti ’.”
While many fans expressed shock, others were firmly on Team Kelce . One supporter tweeted, “Perfect just like he is.” Another wrote, “Sexy man. He shouldn’t be embarrassed.”
Even fellow NFL players have weighed in. Kirk Cousins, quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons, reacted to the photos during an E! News interview, saying, “God bless Taylor Swift for being good with that. That’s awesome , good for her.”
Kelce and Swift, who began dating in September 2023, have been spotted together frequently during the NFL offseason. The pop star was also present at Super Bowl 2024, where she cheered Kelce and the Chiefs to victory over the 49ers.
As of now, Kelce hasn’t publicly responded to the grooming offers, and judging by his humorous take, he might just be happy staying the Big Yeti a while longer.
