Travis Kelce to host celebrity spin-off of Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

Kansas City Chiefs tight end will make his TV series debut as the host of Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? for Amazon Prime Video

Travis Kelce has a new addition to his résume: gameshow host. The Super Bowl-winning Kansas City Chiefs tight end has landed his first TV series job as the host of a spin-off of the erstwhile Fox series Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? for Amazon Prime Video.

The new series, titled Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?, will see adult contestants answering sixth-grade-level trivia questions with the help of famous faces from stage, screen and sports, rather than against actual elementary school students. Amazon has ordered 20 episodes of the spin-off hosted by the three-time Super Bowl champ, whose profile has shot to new heights in recent months thanks to his much-discussed, real-life romcom relationship with the pop star Taylor Swift.
