Comedian Dave Chappelle is breaking his silence on Travis Kelce choosing to attend one of his recent comedy shows as part of his bachelor party celebration.
“I was shocked, I had never seen anything like that. A whoreless bachelor party?” Chappelle, 52, recalled during a Zoom interview on CNN’s Independence Eve Live on Friday, July 3. “Whatever makes you happy, Travis.”
Travis, 36, was joined by his brother, Jason Kelce, and a gaggle of friends last month for a West Coast bachelor party. The group attended Chappelle’s show and multiple sporting events to celebrate Travis’ nuptials to pop star Taylor Swift.
Travis and Swift, 36, coincidentally said “I do” on Friday night, the same time of the CNN broadcast, inside New York City’s famed Madison Square Garden arena in front of a star-studded crowd of nearly 1,000 loved ones.
“I heard he was getting married at Madison Square Garden. You would think I could have got an invite, but I didn’t,” Chappelle quipped during the CNN broadcast. “I didn’t make the 15,000 closest friends.”
He then asked CNN hosts Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper, who hosted their live special from blocks away from MSG in Times Square, whether they scored invitations to the wedding of the year.
“It looks like the three of us are the only three people [who didn’t go],” Cohen,58, jokingly replied on Friday. “The three of us are the only ones not invited.”
Cohen and Cooper, 59, were busy hosting their CNN broadcast on Friday night, while Chappelle called in from his stand-up show in California. At the same time, Swift and Travis celebrated their love story in front of a seemingly never-ending list of Hollywood A-list stars, including Bradley Cooper, Jessica Alba, Kelsea Ballerini, Chiefs head coach Andy Reid and Miranda Lambert.
“Well, I eloped,” Chappelle joked to the CNN cohosts, contrasting the size of his nuptials to Swift and Kelce’s big day. “Me and my wife went to Taco Bell after we got married in Vegas, like, ‘Well, it’s going to be a long life. Good luck to both of us!’”
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce‘s guest list for their wedding may be under wraps — but we now know one celebrity who definitely didn’t attend the festivities. Amy Schumer poked fun at the interest surrounding Swift, 36, and Kelce’s special day, writing via Instagram on Thursday, July 2, “Rehearsal dinner was sick. Who knows was […]
Chappelle has been married to Elaine Mendoza Erfe, with whom he shares three children, since 2001.
“We don’t live in Hollywood,” the comedian previously revealed of their daily life out of the spotlight during a 2020 episode of My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With Dave Letterman. “There’s no paparazzi trying to get [our] picture. … I don’t think I ever leave my children’s presence without letting them know I love them ‘cause I never know what’s going to happen anyway.”
