Travis Kelce offered solutions for his 'hairy as s***' back after viral photos sparked concern for Taylor Swift
Travis Kelce sparked controversy this week after photos of his extremely hairy back went viral - but there are solutions for the Chiefs legend if he wants a smoother look. After enjoying an offseason workout in Miami, where he was also seen out with girlfriend Taylor Swift on Friday night, photographers caught the moment Kelce changed his shirt at the end of the session, and the carpet of hair on both his back and chest unsurprisingly sent the internet into meltdown. Fans were left stunned by his furry look, with one writing: ' Taylor Swift is okay with that?' Another added: 'Travis Kelce is hairy as s***. I like a hairy man but sir.' Yet according to TMZ Sports, companies are lining up to help Kelce tidy up his body hair after the pictures emerged this week. Manscaped - the men's grooming company which offers a plethora of suitable products - has urged the NFL star to make use of one of their mower trimmers. If he wants to test one out, the folks at Manscaped have offered to ship him some goodies whenever he wishes. However, Travis could also go one step further by waxing his chest and back, with Erin Thomas of the Trifecta studios in Kansas City willing to do it for him. Kelce has referenced his hairy body - which has even gained him the nickname 'The Big Yeti' - on several occasions in the past. Just this week on his New Heights podcast, the 35-year-old joked that he was 'wearing two shirts', adding: 'I'm a furry son of a b****.' While some were critical of it, other fans on social media fawned over the controversial look, with one Swiftie calling his hairy back 'perfect just like he is.' Another called him a 'sexy man' and said he shouldn't be embarrassed for his hairy appearance. In February 2024, Jason revealed the origins of the 'Big Yeti' nickname, from Travis' college days playing sports. 'When Trav was at Cincinnati, he would play basketball in the playground quite a bit,' Jason said on New Heights. 'And anyone who has ever played pickup basketball, you know there's shirts and skins.' Travis then chimed in: 'It's just a big ole Yeti out there, man. All the homies on the court were calling me "Big Yeti".' The photos even got as far as other NFL professionals, with legendary quarterback Kirk Cousins weighing in on them.

Travis Kelce's very hairy back leaves fans split after sweaty Miami workout
Photos of a sweaty Travis Kelce and his extremely hairy back have left the internet divided... with many sparing a thought for his girlfriend Taylor Swift. The Kansas City Chiefs legend is currently working hard in the offseason to prepare for what could be his last year in the NFL, and he has been holed up with his pals in Florida. Earlier in the week, Kelce took part in a rigorous Miami workout, and photographers caught the moment he changed his shirt at the end of the session. Perhaps unsurprisingly, a half-naked Kelce sent the internet into meltdown... and mainly for one reason: the carpet of hair covering his back and chest. The man himself has regularly referenced his hairy body - which has even gained him the nickname the 'Big Yeti' - but fans were quick to mention his love life. 'Taylor Swift is okay with that?' one wrote on X, while another added: 'Travis Kelce is hairy as s***. I like a hairy man but sir.' A third noted: 'Please, I don't want to see Travis Kelce's hairy back any more,' and one even joked: 'Wish I could unsee those pictures.' Just this week on his New Heights podcast, Kelce joked that he was 'wearing two shirts', adding: 'I'm a furry son of a b****.' Some fans, though, were fawning over the look, with one Swiftie calling his hairy back 'perfect, just like he is.' Another called him a 'sexy man' and said he shouldn't be embarrassed for his hairy appearance. In February 2024, Jason revealed the origins of the 'Big Yeti' nickname, from Travis' college days playing sports. 'When Trav was at Cincinnati, he would play basketball in the playground quite a bit,' Jason said on New Heights. 'And anyone who has ever played pickup basketball, you know there's shirts and skins.' Travis then chimed in: 'It's just a big ole Yeti out there, man. All the homies on the court were calling me "Big Yeti".' The photos even got as far as other NFL professionals, with legendary quarterback Kirk Cousins weighing in on the photos. In an interview with E! News on Wednesday night, he joked: 'God Bless Taylor Swift for being good with that! 'That's awesome... good for her!' The photos of Kelce working out with his friends in Florida comes amid a much quieter start to the summer for the NFL icon and his girlfriend Swift. Last year the pair were regularly spotted out and about at restaurants in New York, Kansas City and beyond, but they've been keeping a very low profile in 2025.

Travis Kelce Talks About His Body Hair
Travis Kelce was caught without a shirt for a hot second, and the internet can't stop talking about it. On May 20, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end was seen leaving a workout with former Chiefs teammate Ross Travis and his friend and chef, Kumar Ferguson, in Florida. Travis was originally caught by sneaky paparazzi cameras wearing an all-black outfit (T-shirt, shorts, and baseball cap). Once the men finished their session, Travis removed his shirt, and his bare chest and back were on display for everybody. On a May 21 episode of New Heights, Travis addressed his body hair (which seemed to be the main topic of conversation around those shirtless paparazzi photos) and his aversion to heat. In the episode, Travis explained that he hated the heat, joking that he's wearing two shirts (referencing his t-shirt and body hair underneath). The three-time Super Bowl champion said he's not a fan of the hot weather because he's a "furry son of a bitch." Wait. Did he say furry? No! Not that type of furry. Travis was referring to his body hair, clarifying that his comments about playing football in Brazil were about the possible hot weather, and not that he dislikes the country. "Me and heat just don't do well together," Travis said. — u/tashera This isn't the first time Travis got candid about his hairy body. In a 2022 episode of their podcast, his brother Jason Kelce described how Travis got the nickname "Big Yeti." "When Trav was at Cincinnati, he would play basketball in the playground quite a bit," Jason said. "And anyone who has ever played pickup basketball, you know there's shirts and skins." "Shirts and skins, dog, that's the only way to separate the teams," Travis added. "I had the big beard, I had the long hair. I had the chest hair, back hair, arm hair, leg hair. It's just a big ole Yeti out there, man. All the homies on the court were calling me 'Big Yeti.'" When the photos of Travis shirtless hit the internet, people had a few thirsty responses about the shirtless reveal. They're too good to overlook. One person said, "I genuinely LOVE a man with body hair. It's HOT AF. And the fact he doesn't feel the need to overly groom something natural coz of society's expectations makes him even hotter." Another person said, "IDK what yall say that is a BIG fine ass Yeti!!" "He literally calls himself The Big Yeti," another person said. This person said, "Karma is the breeze in his back hair on the the weekend," and I giggled. Finally, somebody said, "Some of you haven't been with an adult man and it shows." And, of course, there were negative comments as well (because the internet is nasty like that sometimes), but those people were rightfully shut down because Travis is a big ol' hunky teddy bear.
