Nikki Glaser, known for her unapologetic humor, found herself in an unexpected situation when her parents, Julie and Edward Glaser, made some controversial remarks about Julia Roberts and Travis Kelce’s interaction at a Taylor Swift concert in Dublin. The incident quickly gained traction online, prompting an apology from Julie.
The Glasers attended Swift’s Eras Tour, and during the event, they witnessed a viral moment involving Julia Roberts and NFL star Travis Kelce. In a video shared on Nikki’s Instagram Story, Roberts, 56, was seen tickling and rubbing Kelce’s chest in the VIP tent. Julie Glaser’s reaction was swift and blunt, calling Roberts “gross” and describing the behavior as “weird.”
Nikki, 40, added her own commentary, suggesting that Roberts’ actions were a bit too much. Edward Glaser also chimed in, claiming that Kelce appeared to be trying to distance himself from Roberts. Julie even joked that Roberts seemed to be attempting to French kiss Kelce.
The next day, Nikki posted screenshots of articles covering her parents’ comments, hinting at an impending apology. True to her word, Nikki shared a video of her mother issuing an apology. Julie admitted that using the word “gross” was inappropriate and clarified that she found the interaction “weird” rather than “gross and weird.”
Edward, in the background, humorously remarked that it was “too late” for Julie to retract her comments. Despite the apology, the incident had already made headlines, and the internet was abuzz with reactions.
Roberts and Kelce’s interaction at Swift’s concert had already drawn significant attention. The Oscar-winning actress, married to Danny Moder since 2002, was seen getting quite handsy with Kelce as they chatted in the VIP tent. Roberts appeared to express her happiness for Kelce and Swift’s relationship, saying, “I’m so happy for you guys.”
However, many Swift fans found the encounter uncomfortable and strange. One fan commented, “Wtf is wrong with JR? Why is she scratching his chest and pushing herself into him? He is so uncomfortable trying to push her off, and she holds him up. This is uber strange.”
Kelce and Swift, both 34, have been dating for less than a year. Their relationship began after Kelce attempted to give Swift his number at one of her Eras Tour shows last summer. Swift later revealed in her Time’s Person of the Year interview that they started hanging out shortly after that, allowing them to get to know each other away from the public eye.
Kelce, in an interview with WSJ. Magazine, opened up about dating someone as famous as Swift. He admitted that he had never experienced anything like it but wasn’t running away from the attention. He praised Swift for enjoying life despite the global spotlight and noted that he didn’t want to act strangely in response.
The incident involving Julia Roberts and Travis Kelce at the Dublin concert added another layer of intrigue to the already high-profile relationship between Kelce and Swift. While some fans criticized Roberts’ behavior, others defended her, suggesting that some people are naturally touchy.
In the end, Nikki Glaser’s parents’ comments and subsequent apology highlighted the unpredictable nature of social media and the rapid spread of viral moments. Despite the controversy, Nikki and her parents seemed to have enjoyed their Eras Tour experience, with Nikki sharing a touching video of her father getting emotional during Swift’s performance of “Champagne Problems.”
As for Kelce, he continues to support Swift on her tour, meeting various A-listers along the way. In London, he brushed shoulders with celebrities like Hugh Grant, Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis, Tom Cruise, and Liam Hemsworth. In Dublin, he had the chance to meet Julia Roberts and Stevie Nicks, an experience he described as “pretty cool.”
Kelce’s encounters with these stars left him feeling star-struck, and he expressed his admiration for their talent and presence. Despite his own fame as an NFL player, Kelce humbly referred to himself as “just a jamoke supporting his girlfriend.”
As the Eras Tour continues, fans eagerly await more moments and interactions involving Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce, and the various celebrities who attend her shows. The tour has become a cultural phenomenon, drawing attention not only for Swift’s performances but also for the star-studded guest list in the VIP tent.
