Julia Roberts appeared in fan videos that circulated on Twitter It is TikTok and beyond. As you can see in the clip below, it was a meeting that seemed very friendly.
The beloved actress appeared to grab Travis’s large, meaty arm — laughing, which some perceived as flirting.
The video also appeared to show the actress touching, perhaps rubbing, Travis’ shoulders. And she… tickle your chest?
Was that appropriate?
To be clear, no one (that we’ve seen) is accusing anyone of anything potentially illegal misconduct. There have been cases of big, strong, famous, and wealthy men who have been touched without their consent — by Terry Crews to Brendan Fraser.
But Travis gave no indication, in the video or afterward, that he didn’t enjoy talking to Julia Roberts.
However, several of Taylor Swift’s most outspoken fans on social media are denouncing the encounter. And some of them, at least, seem to feel that Travis was not having a good time.

Not everyone was eager to criticize Julia Roberts.
Others pointed out that Julia — who is happily married and a few decades older than him — was probably not flirting with him.
Instead, they seemed to be talking, joking, and laughing with each other. If Travis felt any sort of distress while speaking to the famously good-natured actress, he hid it well.
It’s probably important for all of us to remember that many boundaries are not universal. We can’t project ours onto Travis Kelce. And ultimately, only he can decide if someone has been inappropriate with him.
