Kylie Kelce did not expect to be appearing alongside her husband, Jason Kelce, on his very own late-night talk show.
Kylie, 32, reacted to fan comments about her debut on They Call It Late Night With Jason Kelce on the Thursday, January 9, episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast, one of which read, “Kylie always looks like she has no idea how she got roped into the next thing,’ like, ‘Damn it, I did not want to do this.’” The comment sparked Kylie to begin a new segment on her podcast dubbed “Places Kylie Has No Business Being.”
“Getting ‘roped into’ this is the perfect way to express how I ended up as the announcer for this,” she joked. “My husband asked me to participate, and being the supportive wife that I am, I said yes, hesitantly.”
She went on to note that she “did not know” that a “Kylie’s Korner” poster would be hanging from her commentary box. “I do appreciate that because you guys know how I love to hide in a corner,” she quipped. “Although it’s not really hiding when you have spotlights and a camera on you. So, I might need to discuss that with someone.”
Every Time Jason Kelce and Wife Kylie Kelce Hilariously Trolled Each Other
They Call It Late Night premiered on ESPN on Saturday, January 3. During the episode, Kylie hilariously read a disclaimer to young viewers, warning them that “this evening’s program is intended for mature audiences. Young viewers, such as your children, may hear language that is inappropriate for them.”
Kylie and Jason, 37, wed in 2018 and share daughters Wyatt, 5, Ellie, 3, and Bennett, 22 months, and are currently expecting their fourth baby girl.
On Thursday’s podcast, another fan asked in a comment if Kylie was nervous to make her late-night debut, to which she said she was not. “I do find it [similar] to our wedding day when I was nervous about walking down the aisle because everyone’s eyes were going to be on me, and then the minute I could see Jason, I was like, ‘Oh, I’m fine. I can get down the aisle. I’ll just focus on him,’” she explained.
Kylie said she had a similar feeling watching her husband host the show. “He is the main focus, and all of that, and he’s crushing it, I didn’t need to get nervous,” she stated. “I had very few lines, luckily. Love that for me. And I also did PA in college for men’s lacrosse games, so I had a little bit of experience.”

While Kylie is keeping busy with her podcast and her They Call It Late Night gig, she recently clapped back at online trolls who stated they’re “tired” of her projects. “A while ago, I had talked to my producers, like, ‘Do we do a segment on algorithms and explain to people that if you engage with the content and if you write my name and s—, you’re just going to keep getting me on your timeline?’” she joked on the January 2 episode of “Not Gonna Lie.”
Kylie also reacted to another comment which asked, “Who the f— is Kylie Kelce?” She replied: “I can’t get over the fact that [someone] actually typed this into Twitter when you could have typed this into Google. Also, you typed my name, so you know what you’re going to get? More Kylie Kelce content.”
They Call It Late Night airs Saturdays on ESPN at 1 a.m. ET.
