Kayla Nicole has been a constant name in the NFL world ever since she started dating Travis Kelce. While her break-up with the Tight end led to a momentary decline in her presence in the football surroundings, her quirky and candid nature did not fail to gain back the audience’s attention. It is her constant social media uploads that keep her fans hooked, with her recent upload just showing more of her humorously authentic side.

Recently, she reposted Zendaya’s BTS moments from the movie Challengers,” expressing both admiration and a hint of longing. In Zendaya’s post, she shares glimpses of her training for the role, including scenes of her practicing tennis which inspired Kayla.

Kayla Nicole’s plea to God draws eyes all around!

While sharing the video, Nicole humorously wrote, Hey god, it’s me, Kayla. I know the list of dreams is getting pretty long but uhhhh just figured you could maybe add ‘lead role playing an athlete‘ since I can’t be one in real life. Thankyousomuchbye.” Her words not only showcase Kayla’s sarcastic and fun personality but also speak about her genuine support for others, like here toward Zendaya’s new project as she wrote, Also can’t wait to see this film. She’s killing it.”

Her post highlights her high interest in the athlete profession, though she is no longer interested in dating an athlete after her split up with the Travis Kelce. In Behind the Likes podcast, Kayla said, “I‘ll never say never, but I fully, wholeheartedly believe that I am out of the athlete stage.” She further added, “I would love to just date someone that…I do think I’m attracted to men in positions of power and I also think that those types of men are attracted to me.

However, though she has not made her debut in acting yet, she is connected to the entertainment world.
