Dave Portnoy thinks Travis Kelce’s bond with Patrick Mahomes runs so deep that the tight end may name his future child after his teammate.
During an appearance on Alex Cooper’s ‘Call Her Daddy’ podcast, the Barstool boss said he anticipated Kelce proposing to his pop star girlfriend, Taylor Swift, ‘within a year.’
As for baby names, Portnoy said, ‘They’ll probably name [a son] after Mahomes. That wouldn’t shock me.’ When Cooper suggested Swift has ‘more class than that,’ Portnoy chimed in, ‘I mean Travis is a meathead, she’s into the whole meathead thing.’ ‘Everything she’s doing she hasn’t done before,’ he added, referring to the public nature of their relationship, which began last summer. The BFFs podcast host also joked that the pair may name a future daughter ‘Aimee,’ in reference to Swift’s latest diss track about her arch-nemesis, Kim Kardashian.
Elsewhere in the interview, which was filmed at the Kentucky Derby and released Wednesday, Portnoy said the Cruel Summer songstress definitely knows ‘he exists.’ ‘I know she’s seen videos I’ve made defending her,’ the controversial media personality claimed. ‘And Travis Kelce runs in circles that aren’t too different from some of my circles.’ The Barstool CEO is a self-described Swiftie, who regularly calls out Kardashian for attempting to ‘suck-up’ to the singer after the pair’s infamous feud.
Almost a decade ago, the reality star released an edited version of Swift’s phone call with Kanye West about his 2016 song ‘Famous,’ leading to widespread backlash. ‘We all remember what you did with Kanye when you edited the footage and tried to make Taylor seem like a crazy liar,’ Portnoy said on an episode of his podcast last year.
‘Taylor when into hiding for basically a year because of these scumbags, so stop. We don’t want any part of you,’ he went on. ‘You’re dead to us,’ he added, referencing Swift’s army of fans.
