It’s Kelce-mania.
Travis Kelce is everywhere these days: dating Taylor Swift, winning the Super Bowl, making his acting debut, and now, hosting a game show.
On Tuesday, Prime Video released the first trailer for “Are You Smarter than a Celebrity?,” a new game show hosted by the NFL superstar.
In the trailer, Kelce, 34, walks out on stage wearing a dusky pink suit to a cheering crowd. He explains the premise that this is “the game show where people could win ridiculous money, just by answering questions about stuff we all learned back in elementary school.”
When one man confesses that he doesn’t know anything about geography, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end quips, “Me neither.”
Aside from Kelce as host, celebs on the show will include comedians Nikki Glaser, Nicole Byer, Natasha Leggero, and Ron Funches; “Thursday Night Football” analyst Ryan Fitzpatrick; former NFL wide receiver Chad Ochocinco; “Real Housewife of Beverly Hills” star Garcelle Beauvais; “Vanderpump Rules” star Lala Kent; podcaster Sophia Stallone; and actress and producer Lilly Singh.
The show is a spinoff of “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?”
Per Prime Video’s official description, “Each game will welcome an adult contestant who will rely on a classroom full of celebrities from comedy, screen, and sports to help them answer 11 questions on a range of subjects, pulled from elementary curriculum, in an effort to win a $100,000 prize.”
But, instead of competing against the stars, the contestants will get their help. For the final question, worth $100,000, contestants can discuss their ideas with a celebrity before choosing their final answer.
The final question is always at a “6th grade level,” per Prime Video.
In the trailer, Kelce is all smiles.
He’s also shown singing and dancing on stage as Swift fan Glaser chants that an answer could be “True or false.”
When asked what his major in school was, Kelce says, “Criminal justice. If I’m gonna go to school, I might as well learn how to not go to jail!”
Kelce also recently made his acting debut in Ryan Murphy’s FX show “Grotesquerie,” starring Niecy Nash, Courtney B. Vance and “The Crown” actress Lesley Manville.
Nash recently told The Post, “Travis Kelce is greedy, he does eat a lot. A lot! But other than me teasing him about that, we really had a good time working together. He’s so charming, very wonderful, he came to work prepared.”
“Are You Smarter than a Celebrity?” premieres Oct. 16 on Prime Video.
