Niecy Nash Jokes About ‘Flirting’ with Travis Kelce on ‘Grotesquerie’ Set

Niecy Nash recently got candid about her natural talent for flirting and her experience working alongside NFL star Travis Kelce in their upcoming drama series. The Grotesquerie star, known for her charisma, revealed in an interview with People that she found it “easy” to flirt with Kelce while filming the show.

“I was born to flirt so that part is easy,” Nash admitted when discussing her role in Ryan Murphy’s latest drama. She praised the versatility of the characters in the series, including Kelce’s on-screen transformation. “The blessing about this particular show for an actor is that most of the characters play. Travis went from being a charming person who worked at the hospital to being a down-and-out guy with a mullet,” she said, referring to Kelce’s character, Ed Lachlan.

Nash, who has worked with Murphy before on Monster, spoke highly of their working relationship, saying, “Ryan and I have a great relationship. It’s built on three things: love, respect, and foolishness. The third one is really what keeps us going.” She also shared insights into her character, Lois, who is struggling with addiction. “Lois went on a journey, and when you meet her, she’s at the height of her addiction. She is so close to her rock bottom,” Nash explained.

As for her co-star Travis Kelce, who is making his acting debut, Nash had nothing but positive things to say. Kelce, best known for his career as a Super Bowl champion, is currently dating pop sensation Taylor Swift. Their relationship has been widely celebrated, and even Ryan Murphy praised Swift for being “very supportive” of her boyfriend’s foray into acting.

Nash’s enthusiasm for her role and her dynamic with both Murphy and Kelce has fans excited for the upcoming series. With her natural charm and Kelce’s first steps into acting, Grotesquerie is shaping up to be a highly anticipated project.
