Travis Kelce has awkward meeting with an ex in ‘SNL’ sketch
If you suffer from second-hand embarrassment, your flight or fight skills may be activated by watching this Saturday Night Live sketch. That may have sounded like an over-exaggeration but Heidi Gardner puts on an excellent performance as the awkward and probably mentally unstable Abby the ex-girlfriend. Actually, she’s less of an ex and more of a stranger from a first date.
“We went on one date in 2019,” host Travis Kelce explains. “The whole thing was like two hours.”
The sketch from last night’s SNL stars the Super Bowl-winning tight-end as Graham, Abby’s (Gardner) “ex-boyfriend,” when the two cross paths at a nightclub. After some awkward catching up and teeth-clenched apologies (“sorry I threw that kettlebell through your windshield,” Gardner says) Abby is introduced to Graham’s fiancée (Chloe Fineman).
Cue the waterworks.
If you can power through Gardner literally spraying tears across the set (100% not an exaggeration), you’ll be in for a treat as she introduces her new boo, played by Philadelphia Eagles lineman and older brother, Jason Kelce. Quite the family affair isn’t it?
Travis Kelce stars in ‘SNL’ sketch promoting straight male friendship
The way Saturday Night Live sees it, friendship is hard — especially being the one gay guy in a group of straight women. So the solution as Bowen Yang presents it is having a “Straight Male Friend.”
SNL host and Super Bowl champion Travis Kelce plays the titular “Straight Male Friend” in this SNL ad promoting the beauty of a low-effort friendship that requires no emotional commitment, financial investment, or drama. So whenever you need a break, go hang out with your “Straight Male Friend.”
You can see them as much or as little as you want, and even when they do have their emotional low points, they’ll mention it once and never again. And if they do, it’s to apologize “for being a pussy about my dad dying earlier.”
The ad comes with potential warnings like “significant weight gain” or if you have three or more “Straight Male Friends” you may be heading to Atlantic City. It’s the “casual, low-effort relationship gay women have known about for years.”
You can find them anywhere in your area, except therapy.
