Comedian Dave Chappelle shared a candid and raunchy observation about Travis Kelce's bachelor party during a recent CNN appearance. Chappelle, who met Kelce and his party during one of his performances in San Diego last month, described the event as a "whoreless bachelor party."
Kelce, the NFL star, was in San Diego for his bachelor party ahead of his wedding to pop superstar Taylor Swift. The festivities included attending Chappelle's June 21 performance at San Diego State, according to TMZ. Kelce, his brother Jason (who served as best man), and approximately eight other friends were in attendance.
Earlier that day, the Kelce brothers and their companions attended a NASCAR event at Naval Base Coronado in San Diego. The multi-day bachelor party also included stops in Los Angeles, such as a night at the Bird Streets Club with comedian Druski and a DJ Chris Lake performance.
Chappelle recounted his experience to CNN anchors Andy Cohen and Anderson Cooper, remarking on the unique nature of the celebration. "I was shocked. I’ve never seen anything like that: a w—e-less bachelor party," Chappelle stated, eliciting chuckles from others present. He concluded his comment with a laugh, saying, "Whatever makes you happy, Travis."
The comedian also made a playful jab about wedding invitations, noting that Kelce's wedding, which took place two weeks after the bachelor party, was reportedly held at Madison Square Garden. "I heard he was getting married at Madison Square Garden," Chappelle said. "You would think I could have gotten an invite. I didn’t make the 15,000 closest friends."
Cohen humorously suggested that he, Cooper, and Chappelle might have been among the few not invited to the high-profile event. The wedding itself drew a crowd of A-listers and NFL figures. Notable attendees from the sports world included Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany, 49ers tight end George Kittle and his wife Clair, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford and his wife Kelly, Chiefs coach Andy Reid, former Patriots coach Mike Vrabel, and NFL legend Tom Brady. The guest list also featured celebrities such as Robin Roberts, Gigi Hadid, Bradley Cooper, Tate McRae, Stephen Colbert, Selena Gomez, Brad Pitt, and Steven Spielberg.
