Travis Kelce is shopping another product some people may find questionable. This time, he’s doing it with one of the most popular athletes in the influencer space.
Kelce has teamed up with LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne for a commercial promoting the Accelerator Active energy drink.
They have both taken to their social media pages to share videos, and the brand has also followed a new ad campaign with a photo showing them in front of a shopping display teaming with the sports drink.
“Easy choice for @killatrav & @livvydunne 🛒 #AccelerateYourDay #TeamAccelerator,” they said in a post on Friday.
Kelce has been associated with Accelerator Energy for a few months, also having named it the official energy drink of the ‘New Heights’ podcast he runs with his brother Jason.
Dunne has been with the brand since 2023.

“I got Livvy Dunne in the building, LSU gymnast, absolutely just an awesome person, she’s down there making Accelerator look amazing,” Kelce told ‘Good Morning America’ this week after working alongside Dunne.
Dunne has also described the Kansas City Chiefs tight end in glowing terms.
“What really attracted to me to the Accelerator at first was the loaded roster of top tier athletes that use this and drink it,” Dunne told the New York Post last year. “I mean, Aaron Judge Travis Kelce—they all use it and they’re obviously amazing athletes. So that’s what really attracted me to this product.”
Travis Kelce Has Faced Criticism For Past Commercials
Travis Kelce has come under fire for promoting questionable products in recent times.
He’s taken a lot of criticism for his Pfizer vaccine advertisement. He also took some heat for the ad he did for Bud Light.
This latest venture might not be considered as bad as the aforementioned, but plenty of folks think energy drinks are bad for one’s health, given that they’re known to spike dopamine levels, raise blood sugar and pressure, cause dehydration, and accelerate heartbeats, among other things.
Still, Accelerator Energy is considered to be one of the healthier brands out there. That’s because it doesn’t contain lots of sugar and features natural caffeine sources.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and U.S. President Joe Biden shared a hysterical moment together during the team’s visit to the White House on Friday.
Every year, the White House welcomes the league champions of college sports and major professional sports. For the second straight year, Travis Kelce and the Chiefs visited the White House less than four months after successfully defending their Super Bowl title.
While Biden was speaking to the public, the president called Kelce to come over and deliver a speech. The future Hall of Famer stepped up to the mic and delivered a hilarious joke like only he could:
“My fellow Americans, it’s nice to see you all yet again. I’m not going to lie, President Biden, they told me if I came up here, I’d get tased. So I’m going to go back to my spot, alright?”
Biden and Kelce shared a laugh and a handshake before Kelce let the president take over the microphone again.

Travis Kelce and the Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl 58 to secure the franchise’s second straight Super Bowl. This made them the first NFL team to repeat as champions since the 2003 and ’04 New England Patriots.
With their third Super Bowl championship in five years, the Chiefs also cemented themselves as a dynasty. Up next, the Chiefs will try to become the first team in history to complete a Super Bowl three-peat.
Kansas City will open their 2024 season with a home showdown against the Baltimore Ravens on Sept. 5.
A Year To Remember For Travis Kelce
To say that the past 12 months have been awfully special for Travis Kelce would be a giant understatement.
Not only did he just celebrate a third Super Bowl championship with Kansas City, but the 34-year-old may have found his soulmate in Taylor Swift. Kelce and the Grammy Award-winning singer have been together for close to a year now, with their relationship bringing plenty more attention and coverage to the NFL.
On top of that, the Chiefs recently handed the perennial Pro Bowler a lucrative two-year contract extension worth $34.25 million.
