Charissa Thompson’s Travis Kelce Halloween Costume Was Perfect
Since Prime Video’s “Thursday Night Football” took place on Halloween, sportscaster Charissa Thompson dressed up as Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
Thompson obviously doesn’t have the build or facial hair to completely transform into Kelce, but she did a darn good job. The 42-year-old TV host managed to recreate an outfit the three-time Super Bowl champion once wore. The resemblance was so uncanny that it drew a reaction from the “New Heights” podcast.
We’re not sure what inspired Thompson to dress up as Kelce for Halloween, but she’s always had great respect for him.
Believe it or not, Thompson has taken credit for Kelce’s romance with Taylor Swift. Before they became an item, Thompson talked about that potential pairing with her podcast co-host, Erin Andrews.
“Yeah, well, obviously we’ve covered him. And we’re friends with him. And how could you not be? The guy’s a time, right? I’ve seen you guys on a golf course and everything. He’s a time,” Andrews said. “He had mentioned on his podcast that he went to the show, wanted to meet her afterwards, didn’t get the chance to. So we just started talking about it on our podcast saying, ‘Taylor, do this for America. Date him.’ I mean, the guy, he’s not ugly by any means.”
Thompson added, “We, you know, we’ll take the credit. But I just love both of them and I’m so happy to see them happy.”
So not only can Thompson play match-maker for Kelce, she can also cosplay as his stunt double. Suffice to say, that’s pretty impressive.
We’re not sure how Thompson will top this Halloween costume next year, but we won’t dismiss that possibility.
