Travis Kelce Sports Mullet for FX’s Grotesquerie Role
Travis Kelce, the renowned Kansas City Chiefs tight end, has taken on a new role that showcases a dramatic change in his appearance. The NFL star was spotted embracing a mullet hairstyle for his latest acting gig on FX‘s horror fiction series, “Grotesquerie.” On October 17, Kelce stepped into the character of Nurse Ed Laclan in the series, drawing comparisons to the iconic country singer Billy Ray Cyrus from the early ‘90s.
The show’s official social media account highlighted Kelce’s transformation with a captivating message: “𝙽𝚘 𝚘𝚗𝚎 𝚒𝚜 𝚠𝚑𝚘 𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚢 𝚜𝚎𝚎𝚖.” Fans quickly recognized the resemblance and expressed their reactions online, with one viewer humorously commenting, “WHAT IN THE BILLY RAY. We want nurse Travis back lol.”
Kelce’s appearance featured not just the mullet but also a brown leather bomber jacket over a plaid shirt, reminiscent of lumberjack style. His performance as part of the show’s dynamic cast, including Niecy Nash-Betts and others, has been a point of intrigue among viewers.
This season of “Grotesquerie,” co-created by Ryan Murphy, includes a total of ten episodes, with Kelce joining from episode three. The series revolves around a string of mysterious crimes haunting a community, with Detective Lois Tryon, played by Nash-Betts, at its center. Kelce’s character plays a significant role in the unfolding suspense, adding to the series’ unique appeal.
Social media users have also pointed out Kelce’s resemblance to his older brother, Jason Kelce, who sported a similar mullet during his time with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020. “Twinnnn🤞🏻,” remarked one user, referencing a photo of the Kelce brothers.
As “Grotesquerie” progresses, audiences are eagerly anticipating further developments, both in the plot and with Kelce’s on-screen transformations. With just three episodes left, fans are encouraged to stay tuned for the series’ conclusion on Hulu.
