Travis Kelce Over Taylor Swift? Julie Bowen Makes A Shocking Choice Ahead of 'Happy Gilmore 2'

It might look like Taylor Swift has built herself a fanbase big enough to be mistaken for a small nation, one so strong even the Avengers would hesitate before taking them on. But in Hollywood, you only need a lone hero and a basket full of clever tricks to start a revolution. Julie Bowen, ever the sitcom tactician, seems to have found her secret weapon: skip the stadium-sized sing-alongs and head straight to the heart of Chiefs territory. Who needs a friendship bracelet when you have the playbook for Happy Gilmore-level antics?
Move over, Eras Tour, Hollywood has found its own front-row ticket drama.

Julie Bowen did mince her words while declaring she would blitz Arrowhead Stadium and cheer for her Happy Gilmore 2 second-long-co-star rather than secure a ticket to the next Eras Tour. When asked to pick a side, she chose the sidelines, just not Taylor Swift's, as she said that she was "thinking more of a Chiefs' games, but whatever," she told The Hollywood Reporter at the Happy Gilmore 2 premiere. As Bowen seems to think, why sway to 'Shake It Off', when one can celebrate a touchdown performance, both on and off the football field?
This celebrity crossover did not just happen out of the blue. Travis Kelce has swapped his helmet for a cameo in Happy Gilmore 2, entering the fairway of Adam Sandler-verse slapstick under Bowen’s watchful eye. With the sequel set to debut as soon as July 25, 2025, this Chiefs star is no rookie in the comedy playbook, and Bowen is more than ready to rally for Team Kelce. Their off-field connection has turned into on-screen chemistry, giving Sandler’s crew, and even fans, another reason to tune in.
When footballs and golf balls collide, even Taylor Swift might have to change her set list.
Where gridiron glory meets golfball giggles
Happy Gilmore 2 is not a blockbuster that only Julie Bowen and Travis Kelce are collaborating on, but also one with Adam Sandler on it. The comic-iconic star held no words back as he praised Kelce’s sharp comedic instincts and his laid-back, "buddies in high school" energy at a Netflix press run for his upcoming goofball number, declaring Kelce a natural fit for this pop-culture power surge. Sandler even admitted to being "jumpy" around Taylor Swift as he fretted over making "a good impression for my kids". Despite all, the tortured poet has her status solidified in the Hall of Grace as even Sandler admits to her everlasting warmth towards his family.

Between touchdown dances and Happy Gilmore golf antics, Bowen has composed a fresh playbook: sometimes, loyalty is measured not by platinum records, but by who delivers the loudest laugh at the end of the day.
