Watch Travis Kelce host ‘Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?'

It’s Kelce-mania.

Travis Kelce is a busy man these days: dating Taylor Swift, winning the Super Bowl, making his acting debut, and now, hosting a game show.

On Tuesday, Prime Video unveiled the first trailer for “Are You Smarter than a Celebrity?,” a new game show featuring the NFL superstar as the host.

In the trailer, Kelce, 34, makes his entrance on stage in a dusky pink suit to a cheering audience. He introduces the concept of the show as “the game show where people could win ridiculous money, just by answering questions about stuff we all learned back in elementary school.”

When a contestant admits to not knowing much about geography, Kelce jokes, “Me neither.”

Aside from Kelce, the show will feature celebrities like Nikki Glaser, Nicole Byer, Natasha Leggero, Ron Funches, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Chad Ochocinco, Garcelle Beauvais, Lala Kent, Sophia Stallone, and Lilly Singh.

The show is a spinoff of “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?”

According to Prime Video, “Each game will feature an adult contestant who will seek the help of celebrities from comedy, screen, and sports to answer 11 questions based on elementary curriculum for a chance to win a $100,000 prize.”

Instead of competing against the celebrities, contestants will receive their assistance. For the final question worth $100,000, contestants can discuss their ideas with a celebrity before making their final choice.

The final question is always at a “6th-grade level,” as per Prime Video.

In the trailer, Kelce is seen smiling and having a great time on stage.

When asked about his major in school, Kelce mentions, “Criminal justice. If I’m gonna go to school, I might as well learn how to not go to jail!”

Kelce recently made his acting debut in Ryan Murphy’s FX show “Grotesquerie” alongside Niecy Nash, Courtney B. Vance, and Lesley Manville.

Nash mentioned, “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?” is set to premiere on Oct. 16 on Prime Video.
