PETA has been particularly critical of their trip.

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are continuing to face a wave of backlash from PETA and other animal rights activists for their trip to Sydney Zoo last month. However, the couple has been given a "pass" by noted PETA supporter Jennifer Coolidge. While Coolidge said she "understood" why PETA was mad, she didn't think that Kelce and Swift's date was malicious. Instead, she saw it as just a public couple going on what they considered a romantic date.

The couple were spotted enjoying the popular tourist attraction last week between shows on Swift's ongoing Eras Tour. Earlier in the week, Swifties had been gushing over Swift's reactions to the various exhibits during a solo trip to the zoo. Kelce, who was spotted in Las Vegas earlier in the week, reportedly flew from LA to Hawaii. He then stayed the night in the island state earlier in the week. He then reportedly transferred to a private jet that departed for Sydney the day before he was spotted at the zoo.

Video Of Travis Kelce Causing Chaos At The White House Resurfaces

Meanwhile, a video of Travis Kelce causing chaos at the White House has resurfaced online. During the Chiefs' White House visit last year, Kelce had to be pulled away from the Presidential podium by Patrick Mahomes. While President Biden was busy taking photos, Kelce was spotted stepping up to the podium. He began to say "So I've been waiting for this moment…" before Mahomes managed to get to him. It's generally considered a faux pas for a civilian to speak from the Presidential podium without permission.

However, Kelce will likely be soon on his way back to the White House. This is given that the Chiefs repeated as Super Bowl champions this year. Despite the invitation, it will likely remain to be seen if Kelce attends. After all, reports suggest that he might be following Swift as she travels across Asia and Europe on her Eras Tour.

We can't publish the video of Coolidge in this article. However, you can find it at the Via link below.
