It's not uncommon for people on the street to misidentify celebrities or get their project names wrong. This can be quite frustrating for both the celebrities and those around them. But when an A-list celebrity like Travis Kelce makes a mistake, as he did with Billy Eichner, it's understandable why the other party might let it slide. After all, being starstruck is a common reaction.

Adding to the Starstruck Atmosphere

The story involving Eichner, Kelce, and Taylor Swift took place at Madonna's Oscar after-party, which already added a certain level of excitement and starstruck-ness to the situation. Eichner's tale on Jimmy Kimmel Live focused on a hilarious interaction with the Super Bowl camp. He walked into the party and saw Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce in the center. He didn't approach them as he didn't know them. But later, he felt a strong pat on his back and turned around to find Travis Kelce.Kelce is two inches taller and likely heavier than Eichner as he is a football player. This added to the shock for the comedian.

The Viral Show and the Slip-Up

When Eichner turned around and heard Travis Kelce say "Jimmy on the motherfucking street! I love you, man!" in a loud voice at a house full of famous people, he was stunned. Kelce was beaming and seemed so happy to see him that Eichner couldn't bring himself to correct him. It was a truly memorable moment.This slip-up was not only cute and endearing but also gave them something to look forward to whenever they crossed paths at the party. They continued to fist bump throughout the night, even though Eichner doesn't normally communicate that way.

Kelce's Comedy Fan Status

Travis Kelce is known to be a big comedy fan. He is set to appear in "Happy Gilmore 2" and has interviewed many comedic actors on his podcast. Billy on the Street has had major guests like Paul Rudd, who also knows Kelce. So, it makes sense that Kelce has seen the show and is a fan, despite getting the name wrong.Billy Eichner has made it clear that Kelce has an open invitation to appear on his show. It would be great to see them interact in a more formal setting in the future.

Looking Forward

While we wait for that to happen, both Kelce and Eichner have a lot to look forward to. Kelce's football season continues on the 2024 TV schedule, and Eichner's movie "Mufasa" premieres on the 2024 movie schedule on December 20. It will be interesting to see what they both achieve in the coming year.
