Travis Kelce's Secret Napping Ritual on 'Happy Gilmore 2' Set Revealed!
SLEEP TIGHT, CHIEFS FANS! Travis Kelce's Shocking Beauty Sleep Habit Exposed on Happy Gilmore 2 Set
The NFL world is buzzing with excitement as the long-awaited sequel to Adam Sandler's 1996 golf cult classic, Happy Gilmore 2, hits theaters. And among the A-list cameos that have been making waves is none other than Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. But what you might not know about this Hollywood newcomer is his surprising secret: he's a beauty sleep aficionado!
According to co-producer Chad Mumm, who spilled the tea on his Vanity Index podcast with Bachelor Nation alum Wells Adams, Kelce was so committed to getting his Z's that he wouldn't even budge from his trailer without taking an hour-long nap. "The only thing he had in his trailer was this massive Eight Sleep bed," Mumm revealed, "and he would literally go take a nap after filming." Talk about prioritizing beauty sleep!
But don't just take Chad's word for it – we're told that Kelce's napping schedule became a regular occurrence throughout the day. "He'd film a scene and then everyone would go to lunch," Mumm shared, "and instead of lunch, he would just take an hour-long nap... Then go back, film again, and then go back to sleep." Who needs coffee when you've got beauty sleep, right?
Kelce's co-stars in the movie, including Bad Bunny and world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, were reportedly stunned by his unconventional approach to filmmaking. But Adam Sandler himself had nothing but praise for the NFL star-turned-actor, saying that he was "so confident and so funny" on set.
As for how Kelce landed his role in the film, producer Jack Giarraputo revealed to The Scholarly Note.com last week that it was a combination of enthusiasm and happenstance. "Travis would wear this 'Happy Gilmore 2' hat around and say, 'I heard there's a sequel – I want to be in it!'" Giarraputo chuckled. "So that was helpful!"
Meanwhile, Adam Sandler himself has confessed to being a fan of the unconventional casting process. "Different cameos came in different ways," he said with a grin. "With Travis, we thought, 'Why not?' He's a fun guy, and it worked out great." Spoken like a true comedy legend!
Now, we can't help but wonder – what exactly was Kelce doing on set all day? Filming scenes? Taking naps? Sipping coffee (or maybe even some of Adam Sandler's signature humor)? One thing's for sure: his co-stars were certainly entertained by the NFL star's antics.
And speaking of entertainment, Kelce made sure to bring a little bit of Hollywood magic to his Chiefs teammates back in Kansas City. The team hosted an exclusive screening of Happy Gilmore 2 at Missouri Western State University, complete with "Happy Gilmore" merchandise and a special appearance by motivational speaker Damon West (who just so happens to be a reformed crime boss – but that's a story for another time).
As the big screen came alive with laughter and golf puns galore, Kelce's teammates couldn't help but crack up at his hilarious cameo. We hear that even quarterback Patrick Mahomes was giggling uncontrollably throughout the screening.
So there you have it – Travis Kelce: beauty sleep aficionado, Hollywood newcomer, and (it seems) comedy genius? Who knew the NFL star had such a hidden talent for slapstick humor?
