Nikki Glaser’s parents hilariously react to ‘gross’ Julia Roberts ‘rubbing on’ Travis Kelce at Eras Tour

Nikki Glaser’s parents can’t shake off Julia Roberts’ interaction with Travis Kelce at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour show.

The comedian posted an Instagram video Monday showing her mom, Julie Glaser, and her dad, Edward Glaser, reacting to a viral video of the actress, 56, “rubbing on” Swift’s boyfriend during her concert.

“She’s so gross,” Julie quipped, adding that Roberts tickling the 34-year-old athlete’s chest during their conversation was a “weird” move.

Nikki, 40, agreed, asking, “Isn’t that a little much? … She just wants to get in there.”

Edward also called Roberts’ scratching motion “weird,” additionally alleging that Kelce was “trying to get away” from the “Leave the World Behind” star.

The social media clip concluded with Julie joking, “She’s trying to French kiss him right now! Just kidding. She would.”

Roberts attended the pop star’s performance in Ireland on Sunday, along with Stevie Nicks and more celebrities.

Kelce rushed to the show from teammate Clyde Edwards-Hilaire’s California wedding, seemingly surprising Swift, 34, with his appearance.

While in the VIP section, Roberts was filmed getting “handsy” while chatting with the Kansas City Chiefs player.

Swifties blasted the exchange via X, with many claiming that Kelce looked “uncomfortable” with the Oscar winner’s body language.

“The chest scratch is an odd choice,” one fan wrote.

Others, however, defended Roberts, with one user asking, “Why are people being weird about this? Some people are just touchy like that, she’s also old enough to be his mom.”

Kelce and Roberts have yet to respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

Roberts has gushed about Swift in the past, telling “Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” viewers that her Spotify Wrapped is an “embarrassing” ode to the singer.

“It was not the cool, ‘Oh, let me share this with all my friends,'” she joked in December 2023. “It was like, ‘I figured as much.'”

The Golden Globe winner is married to Danny Moder, with whom she shares three kids.

At the time, the “Notting Hill” star reflected on joining Swift onstage during a 2015 concert with her kids.

Roberts, who shares twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, 19, and son Henry, 17, with husband Danny Moder, said she was “very nervous.”

The Golden Globe winner recalled, “I said, ‘Well, can I get a Taylor Swift T-shirt to wear if I go onstage?’ Because I was wearing an outfit that I had just worn two days before on the ‘Ellen [DeGeneres] Show.’ I didn’t want people to be like, ‘Does she ever change?’”
