Kylie Kelce Isn’t Ready to Lose TikTok: ‘Pour One Out’

Kylie Kelce, just like Us, isn’t quite ready to give up TikTok in light of the potential governmental ban.

“There’s something that’s been weighing on me heavily over the past few days,” Kelce, 32, said on the Thursday, January 16, episode of her “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. “It looks like my favorite app, TikTok, might actually be going away for good. Hopefully, it doesn’t, and I can doom-scroll until the end of time. But, just in case, I want to properly pour one out for TikTok.”

Congress enacted the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act last year, which bans providers from “distributing, maintaining or updating” an app controlled by a foreign adversary. TikTok is owned by ByteDance, a Chinese company, and the U.S. government has been wary of potential espionage. (ByteDance claimed the proposed ban was a violation of First Amendment protections regarding free speech.)

The act was then taken to the Supreme Court, which has yet to formally rule on upholding the ban. If it indeed passes, then TikTok will need to be removed from smartphone app stores by Sunday, January 19.

While users like Us wait on SCOTUS’ ruling, Kelce is sharing her best memories of the app.

“I was a little late to the TikTok game. I joined sometime during the pandemic because I was sick of being sent TikToks by friends and not being able to watch them easily through the app,” Kylie, who is married to retired NFL star Jason Kelce, recalled. “Since then, almost three kids later, I’ve spent countless post-bedtime hours doom-scrolling. … Now, I have to ask myself, ‘What am I going to fill that time with?’”

Kylie further wondered if she should replace her TikTok time with reading … or watching Reels on Instagram.

“I’m not going back to Facebook. I refuse; that is a bottomless pit,” she quipped. “Do we bring back Vine? I did love the six seconds [and] it really caters to the ADHD in me. Do I let my own thoughts run wild? Definitely not.”

According to Kylie, she will also have a “newborn soon as a distraction.” (She and Jason, 37, are expecting their fourth baby in 2025.)

“But, then, what do I do while the newborn’s eating?” Kylie added. “During this time of grave uncertainty, I’ll try to remember the good times like when I first heard @AshleyKnock say, ‘Hey f—ers.’ It was a beautiful moment. Or when I first saw Jeremy Scheck followed me. His food truly got my mom and I through the pandemic.”

Kylie also remembered her own posts, including one of 5-year-old daughter Wyatt enthusiastically pointing out AJ Brown’s pink cleats during a Philadelphia Eagles game and other footage of Jason sleeping while she gave birth to Bennett.

“Goodbye TikTok, hopefully, we’ll meet again on the other side of a sale,” Kylie concluded.
