It seems Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce could soon face a rivalry to be the biggest American power couple.
That’s because Chad Ochocinco announced he is going to try to get Shannon Sharpe‘s attention focused on Kim Kardashian.
The comments came on an episode of the Nightcap with Unc and Ocho Podcast, of which Sharpe is a member of alongside Ochocinco.
The retired wide receiver drew comparison to their lifestyles, noting that both are focused and busy people and that could bode well for a potential union.
“You ain’t got no old lady, right, and I told you I’ve been searching, looking and talking to some people,” Ocho said to his counterpart.
“I saw Kim [Kardashian]. She said ‘Oh, I’m looking for an older man after my separation from Pete Davidson‘ and I’m like ‘Oh, s**t, that’s crazy’.
“You would be like power rangers, like a power couple.”
Will Shannon Sharpe start dating Kim Kardashian?
Sharpe however, played down the possibility by pointing out that he wants to remain well clear of Kanye West‘s gaze.
“Lord have mercy,” Sharpe replied.
“Man, Kanye isn’t going to write a diss track about me!”
Chad Ochocinco’s true motivations
Their podcast currently has a five-star rating, but Ochocinco is gunning for greater stardom for their NFL discussion channel.
“Think about what happened with Travis Kelce,” the 45-year-old continued.
“Taylor Swift came into his life and everything exponentially shot up.
“Think about what Kim can do for Club Shay Shay. You need to rethink this because you’re not thinking straight right now.”
Since Kelce and Swift started dating, popularity in the Kansas City Chiefs tight end and his team has exploded, with shirt sales for him rising by 400 percent.
“If I went out with Kim Kardashian, man we’ll wake up tomorrow and Unc and Ocho would have two million subscribers,” Sharpe admitted.
