Niecy Nash<\/strong><\/a> is opening up about working with Travis Kelce<\/strong><\/a> in his acting debut.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know what, I\u2019m pleasantly surprised. He\u2019s doing really well,\u201d Nash, 54, told Entertainment Tonight<\/em><\/a> of her costar in the new Ryan Murphy<\/strong> horror series Grotesquerie<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Nash said she\u2019s been working with Kelce, 34, on set, helping the Kansas City Chiefs tight end rehearse lines. The actress said it\u2019s usually \u201cus sitting around eating In-N-Out reading words off a piece of paper.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for whether Nash has quizzed the Super Bowl champion about his superstar girlfriend, Taylor Swift<\/strong><\/a>, also 34, the actress played coy.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tTaylor Swift and Travis Kelce are all anyone can talk about. Swift and Kelce were first linked in July 2023 when the Kansas City Chiefs tight end shared he attempted to ask Swift out after attending her Eras Tour. \u201cI was a little butthurt I didn\u2019t get to hand her one of the bracelets I [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWell now, I don\u2019t ask and tell! Let me just say that,\u201d said Nash.<\/p>\n

Nash was the first to reveal that Kelce will appear in the FX series when she shared a video<\/a> of her and the NFL player on set via Instagram in May.<\/p>\n

In the clip, Nash tells the camera, \u201cGuys, guess who I\u2019m working with on Grotesquerie<\/em> \u2026 dun-dun-dun-dun!\u201d before panning to Kelce, who can be seen behind her.<\/p>\n

As the pair burst into laughter, Kelce says, \u201cJumping into new territory with Niecy!\u201d<\/p>\n

Kelce shared the post to his Instagram Stories and wrote over it, \u201cSteppin into a new world with one of the legends!\u201d and tagged Nash.<\/p>\n

On the May 15 episode of his and brother Jason Kelce<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cNew Heights\u201d podcast, Kelce said that filming his acting debut was \u201cso much fun,\u201d and praised Murphy as an \u201cunbelievable writer, director, producer, all of the above.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe seemed very confident that I\u2019d be able to do this, and he kinda injected that in me the first conversation that we had. So hopefully I don\u2019t bomb this for him,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cTravis had an incredible time filming,\u201d a source exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em><\/a> in May, adding that Kelce is done shooting the show. \u201cHe had fun doing it.\u201d<\/p>\n
