Travis Kelce attempts gymnastics tricks with Livvy Dunne as they star in cringe-worthy new advert
Travis Kelce and Olivia Dunne traded sports as part of a new ad for the energy drink that sponsors them both, Accelerator.
Kelce tried out for gymnastics and was the first, with the LSU gymnast teaching the Kansas City Chiefs how to land a proper touchdown.
Taylor Swift’s boyfriend didn’t don a leotard for the attempt, but Dunne shared the three key parts of “sticking the landing”: arms extended upon impact with the mat, arms raised to signal the end of the routine , and a scream. .
All four events in women’s gymnastics – the vault, uneven bars, floor exercise, and balance beam – all involve a similar dismount.
After Kelce landed with his arms out, performed the arms-up salute and scream, Dunne was impressed and yelled, “10!” “10!” which is a perfect score for college gymnastics.

Then came Dunne’s chance to show what she could do as a football player. She’s dating Paul Skenes of the Pittsburgh Pirates, not the Steelers, so an on-field clue might be stranger.
Kelce taught Dunne the proper way to catch a football, using the ‘diamond’ technique. This means holding your thumbs and index fingers together while keeping your elbows tight.
Off-camera, Kelce Dunne throws the ball as she yells, “She’s open!” with the gymnast pulling in the pass and spiking the ball in honor of Kelce’s joy.
Accelerator has been a sponsor of Kelce’s podcast ‘New Heights’ for months, which he presents together with his older brother Jason Kelce.
Other athletes sponsored by Accelerator include Spanish tennis player Paula Badosa and Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga.
The ad was filmed a few weeks ago before Travis Kelce appeared on stage with his girlfriend during a London show of her stadium ‘Eras Tour’.
