Travis Kelce stuns for GQ

There's a reason why his girlfriend doesn't do fashion shoots - she's savvy enough to know she'd look about as fashionable on the cover of Vogue as a soccer mom shopping for lingerie at a Walmart outside Scottsdale. He should seek her advice next time.

"MOMMY, BABY, DADDY...WOW!"

America's Sweetheart™ y'all.

Doesn't this belong on one of those underwhelmed threads?

He looks like someone with diaper rash and big brown rash marks under his arms and folds of his fat.

He’s a loser.

He looks like someone trying to hard on Grindr.

*too

He looks like this putz.

Kelce is quite an unattractive man.

If he also does Esquire or Men’s Health the gig is up.

I want him and his brother in me, quite deeply.

Even you can do better R12.

Like putting lipstick on a potato.

Travis seems like a good guy. A big oaf, sure. But a good guy.

Jason could fuck me until I wept. I adore that man. He's my absolute type.

Neither slim pins nor curves to flaunt.

How disappointing.

All y'all crack me up. If Kelce looked twice at any of you, you'd be on you back with your legs up in the air faster than a speeding dildo.

Bullshit, r17. He looks like a Jiffy Lube employee who works out. Totally common. I'd expect a person who says "all y'all" to find him hot. Trash.

He must indeed seem very attractive to someone who says things like "all y'all."

[quote] He looks like a Jiffy Lube employee who works out.

I'm decidedly not someone who would say "all y'all" but I don't see anything wrong with that. I wouldn't be looking for someone to discuss Foucault's oeuvre with, just a hot, dumb fuck.

Well, he's certainly at least a dumb fuck, at any rate.

Rather than concentrate on the expression "all y'all," (used intentionally), address the comment.

[quote]He looks like a Jiffy Lube employee who works out. Totally common.

Because this is what R18 looks like. You couldn't get laid in a whorehouse with a handful of hundreds.

Die Workwear guy:

me, a gq stylist: ok, now put on this work vest and get into the ocean. push your hair back, like you're cooling off after a long day of working on the construction site

travis kelce: but that doesn't make any sense

me: don't worry about it kitten

R23, very good. It's still better than this one, where he seems to be boating in Florida wearing fur.

A bit hairier than Taylor's many exes.

I say "all y'all", but I'd never write it because I am from the South and I'm not a moron.

He has 0 photographic presence. He is only somewhat photogenic because he’s good looking. 0 energy and dull behind the eyes. Like many of you have said, he’s trying too hard.

It's giving redneck pimp.

He's fucking HOT. A big, dumb, good-looking, mouth-breathing jock.

THE END.

29 posts and no mention of Tay Tay being his beard?

R22 All y'all is desperate to insult gay men's appearances by suggesting that looking like homosexual is a bad thing.

And all y'all is insistent that all gay men are whores.

Why is all y'all even here?

shot by austin powers

R11 the jig is up!

OP - Did he then catch a Salmon with his paws in that river?

Al y’all are cunts, now stfu up all y’all already. Y’all.

Total fag!

Odd that a top athlete like him has zero muscle tone. His torso is completely smooth and flat.

R37 He's never really been toned. Just big.

[quote]All y'all is desperate to insult gay men's appearances by suggesting that looking like homosexual is a bad thing.

What do homosexuals look like? It's been my experience that gay men look all different ways. If you think looking and acting like Quentin Crisp is a good thing, then carry on.

[quote]And all y'all is insistent that all gay men are whores.

Are you new here?

Those who can, do. Those who can't, clutch their pearls.

"Ugh! What a BRUTE! Big hulking muscles covered in... in... in HAIR! A waist larger than 28"??STUBBLE?.!? MY GOD! Oh! Get it away! GET IT AWAY!!! My smelling salts... my smelling salts... oh sweet jesus save me.... "

Anyone tapping out "all y'all" on a keyboard repeatedly has a few screws loose somewhere. Guessing it's 🫖🍰 or 🌊🐄 or one of those idiots.

The Three Faces of DL: Eve White, Eve Black and Eve Cow

R39 Y'all are trying to degrade someone by saying they all like a stereotypical homosexual.

Even with an army of stylists, makeup artists, hairstylists, a lighting crew and professional photographers, they still couldn't make him not look like a knuckle-dragging caveman.

R39 Why the fuck must we tolerate your heteronormative garbage on this website?

He looks like a heavy drinker.

I'll come into that water with him...

I’m stunned they would put that photo on GQ.

[quote]Y'all are trying to degrade someone by saying they all like a stereotypical homosexual.

And you're saying this never happens on DL?

I prefer someone like Kelce over someone like Crisp. Many DLers have the same preference. Why is this a problem for you? Maybe because you're Crispy and no Kelces would fuck you.

You sorry little cunt.

That pose - that's like a Sports Illustrated swimsuit pose - except he's all covered up.

Ridiculous.

I'm so tired of these aging-out athletes wanting to promote themselves into being some sort of personality celebrity. He's not even one of the greats - he's a player who played against his brother in a Super Bowl who happens to also date Taylor Swift.

"I wanna be a STAH" - ok, enjoy this year or two of overhyped coverage. We have plenty of talentless meatheads to go around already.

R41 It’s not me. I don’t know if it’s supposed to be parody or what. But I don’t post shit that doesn’t make sense or overuse words in a weird syntax way. Some people are very lonely.

He poses as he’s told. That’s football—a position player knows that “coach” is the boss.

The weirdest set of photos I've seen of a famous celeb, in GQ, in a long while. Maybe ever. Who styled him here, who decided to shoot him in the bayou/Florida Everglades? with a snake.

You know Taylor must not have anything to do with his career choices or PR, because she'd never approve anything as awful as this. This was all him.

Oh, I think the opposite— she approves this message! ;)

That end ain't tight......hasn't been for a LONG time.

[quote]He poses as he’s told. That’s football—a position player knows that “coach” is the boss.

This meathead doesn't.

Interesting that football players aren’t all that muscular. I saw a pic of him with Taylor Swift on a beach just after the football season ended. He didnt look so fit

It depends on the position —as any football fan understands. Have you seen a center vs a QB vs a WR vs a DB?

Dataloungers are so out of touch with professional sports that they assume every player on every team in every sport has the body of a Greek god.

These guys need to be fast, strong, and [italic]good.[/good]. They don't need to be pretty or "cut." Bodybuilding is its own sport for a reason: to get that type of body, every workout is tailored to that goal, every ounce of energy and focus is working towards that goal. Working out is your main focus. If Travis Kelce is in the gym all day every day trying to get "ripped," he's never going to practice or drills with his teammates, and his focus is not where it should be, which is on the game, not his looks or body.

[/italic]Oops sorry for the dumb italics! My brain is fried.

Scrolling down fast, I thought it was WWE wrestler Razor Ramone.

Law Roach usually does top tier work but this is a rare miss for him.

Hissing old bitches ! You know goddamn well if he pulled it out and asked you to suck it you'd faint . Hes hot,hes always been hot,and even older hes going to be hot. Deal with it Hissers !

R63 Who let Donna Kelce create a Datalounge account?

R24 - Looks like he should hang out with Hunter Biden.

I can tell that he doesn’t spread his ass in the shower to clean properly with soap and a thorough rinsing.

I don’t buy for a second that their relationship is real — it’s a PR romance at best, and probably just a friendship.

The proof? Look at the pattern: after her PR disaster with The 1975, she immediately jumped to Travis Kelce following a six-year relationship with Joe Alwyn — a man whose only publicly affectionate photos outside of Taylor have been with men, and who has no documented history of dating women before or after her.

Kelce is running the same play Tom Hiddleston did with his fake relationship with Swift (yes, the one that included that infamous underwear shoot that got backlash). The difference? It’s working for Kelce, while it tanked Hiddleston’s career because he was a serious actor. Hiddleston took the “Taylor Swift boyfriend” gig thinking it would be a stepping stone to landing James Bond — and it backfired spectacularly.

And now Hiddleston is bearded by one of Idi Amin's Minister's mistress offspring

It depends on their positions. Brady, Allen, Mahomes, and my favorite Joe Burrow aren't muscular athletes because they're QBs

R67 Good Lord, why would either of them need to be in PR romance? Because they're both in the closet?

CHRIST, you people are ridiculous.

While he’s handsome, I have never found him even they least bit sexy

Is anyone on DataLounge going to mention this spread was shot by gay former Vice sensation and 00’s art world darling Ryan McGinley?

On a scale of Lamar Jackson to Jimmy Garoppolo, Travis is about a Trevor Lawrence.

R49

"And you're saying this never happens on DL? "

Oh, it happens all the time, honey and it's from self-loathing closeted "queers" or from straight "allies" who think they belong.

We see you.

No.

TACO will personally honor them all (except Gaynor).

Whoops. Wrong thread

R74 - You think all gay men are mincing prisspots, and those who don't conform are self-loathing, heteronormative, and/or closeted. This says more about you than the rest of us.

You're just very effeminate and not happy about it, and insist all gays should be like you. You're actually the self-loathing one here.

We see you.

R77 Baby straight out of the gate with the ad hominem attacks, all on physical appearance. That's all you're good for. That's all you bring. Such a sad cliche.

Gay people are supposed to be smart and witty and funny and insightful. You are none of these things. You're nasty and judgmental and deluded and tedious. The world is filled with people like you.

Now sit at the bar quietly alone and sip your Cosmo, knowing that you look fantastic for your age.

R39 same with Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.

Unlike you, I've been partnered for 20 years now. Once again, you're projecting. You're the cunt at the end of the bar passing judgement on the passing parade, the parade that passes you by. No wonder you're single.

[quote]Gay people are supposed to be smart and witty and funny and insightful.

On what planet are you smart, witty, and insightful. You don't even know how to use commas.

I'm not stunned. He and his brother look like they crawled out of a cave.

Well I'm not embarrassed to say I find him hot. Big, dumb, and hairy are all qualities I like in a man and he seems to have a fun personality.

That's embarrassing. He should've hit the gym for about a month before taking these photos.

He’s Webster Dictionary’s definition of wigga.

R82 - most of us realize he’s not “having fun” as much as he’s celebrating himself and doing self promotion. This guy talked “black” and dated massive assed black women exclusively before he won the lottery and was able to hitch his and his white trash family’s wagon to that spider limbed girlfriend of his.

I almost forgot how cringey his "blaccent" is. I haven't heard him speak for a while, but was wondering if it got toned down after he started dating white-as-Wonder-Bread Taylor Swift?

R70 people here believe that. They believe Travis Kelce is a gay man who's totally into dudes, and TayTay is a rug muncher from way back.

Turns out you CAN make this shit up and actually believe it, too.

The obsession here with Taylor Swift is so telling. She like a shibboleth for conservatives, similar to using the phrase "virtue signalling" to mock basic empathy, or using woke as a pejorative for anything you don't understand.

R50 You must not be football fan. Travis Kelce may elicit different responses as a celebrity (I think he has a goofy charm, and though not my type, is a handsome bloke)..... but there is no question he is a great tight end (or has been, last couple seasons he isn't performing as he did before). Hall of Fame, first ballot.

R59 types fat.
