Travis and Jason Kelce earn Webby Award nominations with their New Heights show up for best sports podcast… as the Chiefs star’s girlfriend Taylor Swift also gets a nod
Travis Kelce and pop superstar girlfriend Taylor Swift were both named among the nominees for this year´s Webby Awards, recognizing the best internet content and creators.
The International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences announced the nominees on Tuesday, the result of 13,000 entries from over 70 countries, according to The Associated Press.
The Kansas City Chiefs star got a nomination in the best sports podcast category for teaming up with his brother Jason for their New Heights podcast.
Travis and his legendary Philadelphia Eagles center brother are also nominated in the Best Co-Hosts category.
Meanwhile, Swift shared an Instagram message encouraging her 283 million followers to register to vote was nominated in the best creator or influencer category. The website she directed her fans to – the nonpartisan Vote.org – recorded more than 35,000 registrations, according to the organization.
The NFL’s power couple aren’t the only famous couple with Michelle Obama getting a nod for her ‘The Light Podcast,’ while her husband, former President Barack Obama, was nominated for his work with LinkedIn.
The awards are selected by the Academy, while The Webby People´s Voice Award is voted on by fans around the world.
Voting for that award is open now until April 18. Winners for all awards will be announced May 13 at a ceremony hosted by “Late Night with Seth Meyers” writer and comedian Amber Ruffin.
Last November, the Kelces’ New Heights show was crowned Spotify’s No. 1 sports podcast in the world for 2023.
New Heights was also the top sports podcast in America and the top American football podcast in the US, per Spotify.
The show’s meteoric rise continued last month when the popular NFL duo scooped Podcast of the Year at the iHeart Radio Awards. It beat out the likes of My Favorite Murder and SmartLess to win Podcast of the Year.
Neither brother was in attendance at the ceremony in Austin, Texas, but they did record a video message for the audience, in which Travis joked: ‘Get the f*** outta here… people actually listen to this?’
Jason then went on to thank Taylor Swift’s fans for voting for them to win – amid his brother Travis’ high profile relationship with the pop superstar.
