Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce supported comedian Shane Gillis by liking a video of his recent controversial monologue on Saturday Night Live. In this monologue, Gillis made a joke that offended women who go to the gym.
At the beginning of the episode, which aired on October 10, Gillis, 38, said, «I haven’t been to the gym in so long, I didn’t know women now dress like prostitutes». He continued by describing how the shorts women wear look and added that they shouldn’t be looked at since they are filming TikToks.
A source close to Kelce told Page Six that «he has always been a big fan of the show and was supporting a friend». Kelce has not yet commented on Gillis’s joke, but they have publicly supported each other in the past. In June, Gillis performed at Kelce’s annual event, Tight End University, which he hosted alongside other tight ends.
After the episode aired, other personalities also weighed in on Gillis’s joke. Actor Dan Levy, known for the series Schitt’s Creek, sharply criticized the comedian on Instagram, stating that «women who wear short shorts at the gym are not prostitutes». He emphasized that the problem lies with men who call them that and urged men to speak out more against such behavior.
Additionally, in the same episode, Gillis accidentally swore during a sketch parodying Dr. Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham, which also sparked discussion. At the end of the show, he apologized to the audience for what had happened.
