Travis Kelce & Jason Kelce hilariously review LeBron James' Ken doll debut: "He has never looked so stiff"
LA Lakers star LeBron James is the first professional athlete to have his likeness represented in a Ken doll. On Wednesday, Mattel revealed the doll to start their “Kenbassador” series, and fans were thrilled to see the four-time champion in a doll. NFL stars Jason and Travis Kelce got a chance to look at the doll for the first time and had a discussion about it on the Thursday episode of "New Heights."
Jason shared that he had not seen the doll before its release and took the time to research how it looked. After seeing it, the former Philadelphia Eagles center had a hilarious reaction to the image of the doll.
"To me, it's a little bit too likeness like," Jason said.
The current tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, Travis, also had a hilarious response to the doll.
"Bron has never looked so stiff in his life," Travis added."I mean, that's the Ken version of LeBron."
Jason said he'd prefer it to have looked a "little more Barbiefied." He also said that he'd be interested in getting a LeBron James Ken doll for his eldest daughter, Wyatt.
After finding out that the Lakers' star is the first professional athlete to have a Ken version of himself, Jason had a suggestion. He said his younger brother could be the second athlete to have a Ken doll. Travis quickly shut it down and said people won't be interested in it.
The former Eagles center, however, retorted that his brother is insane if he believes that people do not desire a Ken doll representation of Travis.
After this was posted, James loved the reactions of the Kelce brothers. He shared the video on his Instagram stories.

"Oh, he dope," James said after seeing it for the first time. "That's so cool. This is so dang old cool.
"Oh my goodness. Just a kid from Akron got his big headphones. Now, we official.
The Lakers star adjusted the doll's clothes a bit before pointing out that the doll's legs are skinny. James said the doll needs to do some leg exercises.
Aside from that, James was ecstatic when he saw the finished product and couldn't hold back his happiness.
