- Big Ten's passing star Taulia Tagovailoa gets shot with Seattle Seahawks as undrafted rookie
- NFL Draft 2024 Picks Day 2: What players were selected today and to which teams?
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf might catch passes on the field, but off the field, it was singer Normani catching his attention, thanks to a little help from NFL superstar Russell Wilson's wife, Ciara. The connection came to light during a playful prank orchestrated by Normani in collaboration with Elle magazine, where she pretended to consider a spot on "The Bachelorette."
During the prank call to Ciara, Normani feigned interest in joining the reality show, seeking advice from her friend who immediately expressed concern and dished out guidance. The conversation took a hilarious turn when Normani revealed the truth-it was all a prank. But amidst the laughter, a charming revelation emerged: it was Ciara who had initially set Normani and Metcalf up.
The couple made their relationship public last summer through a series of Instagram posts, but the behind-the-scenes role of Ciara hadn't been widely known until now. This tidbit adds another layer to the bond between the two stars, as Ciara not only shares a close friendship with Normani but also a unique connection through her husband, Russell Wilson, who was Metcalf's teammate on the Seahawks.
DK Metcalf swept up in Normani's prank
Metcalf himself was roped into the prank when Normani called him next, teasing him with lines from her song "Wild." His confusion quickly turned to excitement, which further showcased their playful and affectionate relationship. When Normani finally admitted the prank, Metcalf's cheeky response, "Why we gotta stop?" highlighted his good humor and their strong chemistry.
This revelation not only spices up the off-field lives of these celebrities but also showcases the tight-knit relationships within the NFL community.
