Watch: “Jake Paul’s Epic Fail with Travis Kelce Shocks NFL Fans – You Won’t Believe What Happened!”
Jake Paul’s influencer antics seemingly backfired against him when he pretended to be Travis Kelce at Fanatics Fest in New York City, as no attendees fell for his prank
On Sunday, footage of the 27-year-old YouTuber-turned-boxer went viral on social media, as he epically failed to pull off his act at the three-daylong event, which took place from Aug. 16-18.
To make matters worse for Paul, the clip was shared by his online betting company, Betr, on X.
The former Disney star didn’t fool anyone in full Chiefs gear, as many people noticed his tattoos and blonde beard – two physical attributes that Kelce doesn’t have.
He isn’t nearly as tall as the three-time Super Bowl champion, either. Kelce stands at 6ft5 while Paul is 6ft1.
Also, unlike the genuine Kelce, who is known for his friendliness and personal touch with fans, Paul shoved a few festival goers while trying to native through the crowd.
‘Is there anybody more annoying (sic) than this mf?’ someone on X reacted to Betr’s video of Paul this weekend.
‘How did people fall for this,’ someone else asked on TikTok. ‘Who knows,’ replied another user on the video-based social media platform.
Earlier this week, Paul compared himself to boxing legend Muhammad Ali before shoving Mike Tyson – another great in the ring – at a press conference in New York.
